Brian & Christy Thompson give this guarantee on our puppies of Labrador Retrievers. It is recommended that you follow a health wellness program by your veterinarian.  Puppies are required to have a special type of nutrition for proper growth.  Consult with your veterinarian and please follow the recommendations. 
*    OFA Hip Certification
The OFA hip x-ray must be completed on or after the age of 24 months by a licensed veterinarian.  When completing the form for the OFA it is important to note "Please return the x-ray to the Veterinarian."  The dog must have a microchip or tattoo for positive identification by the veterinarian.  It is best not to have the x-ray completed when a bitch is in cycle.  If there is a veterinarian that is board certified in radiology nearby it is recommended that the x-ray be completed at his/her location and you can receive a written report at that time also. 
*     Eye CERF
The eye CERF must be completed on or after the age of 18 months by a board certified veterinary ophthalmologist - D.A.C.V.O.

The guarantee is valid for up to 26 months of age.  We take a lot of pride in the health of our puppies and in the selection of our breeding program.  However, if the dog does not meet the above guarantee, the following conditions must be met.
