Health Testing & Guarantee

Every breeding dog at Mason's Inlet Retriever's is OFA certified and Pawprint Genetics cleared, and every puppy comes with a documented health guarantee.

When you're looking for a health-tested Labrador breeder in North Carolina, the paperwork matters as much as the promises. At Mason's Inlet Retriever's, both the sire and dam are OFA certified for hips and elbows and cleared through a Pawprint Genetics genetic panel before any litter is planned. The dam Malibu, registered as Cadron Ridge's Summer Kailani Marina (AKC #SS3951404), has cleared OFA hips good, OFA elbows normal, an advanced cardiac echo, eye clearance, and a full Pawprint Genetics genetic panel. Sire Drake has OFA hips good and elbows normal. Second dam Kaya is also health-tested. Jennifer does not breed dogs that haven't cleared these standards.

Every puppy comes with a 3-day window to have a licensed veterinarian examine your dog. Hips and elbows are guaranteed to 12 months when the puppy is raised on NuVet vitamins. Jennifer is happy to walk you through the test results for any dog in the program before you commit to a reservation.

Call Jennifer before you put down a deposit so you understand exactly what the guarantee covers and what it requires on your end.
