DeHaan Labs rasies all of our litters right within our home. The litter is whelped in the office and as the puppies out grow the whelping pen, they are moved to larger and larger areas within our home until they are eating food on their own. At that time, the puppies are in our garage so mom (and us) have easy access to them. We weigh each puppy individually every day for the first 3 weeks. We supplement with bottle feeding so each puppy receives adequate nutrition. The puppies are raised with Puppy Culture, Early Neurological Stimulation and Early Scent Introduction. We handle each puppy multiple times per day until they go to their new homes.
Since DeHaan Labs is a small family operated breeder, we typically only have one litter per year. However, from time to time, we may highlight other breeder's litters. These litters will be from a health tested sire and dam. We will have first hand knowledge of either the sire and/or dam; meaning that we have either personally hunted alongside either the sire and/or dam or have personally watched the sire and/or dam in one or more hunt test scenarios and can attest to the talent and attributes this litter may possess. All communications will take place directly with the breeder of the litter and in no way will DeHaan Labs warranty or represent the litter in any way.
COMING SOON!!!!! Ice x Georgie Our next planned litter looks to take place mid April 2026. We will be having one last litter with Georgie. Go home date will likely mid August 2026.
Our current plans are to breed Georgie to SRSAC 9xGrHRCH UH Ice Needs Whiskey QAA MNH. We are expecting a black and yellow litter. Ice brings a wealth of talent and success in several different hunt test venues as well as real life waterfowl hunting. We expect a medium sized lab as an adult but with a muscular, athletic frame and gorgeous head! Calm and quiet on the line with hard charging straight lines running marks and blinds. Health tested and proven sire that is a joy to have in the house or kennel.
Be sure to contact us if you have any interest in this litter.
