Getting a Labrador puppie

[Jordan:A]

I am getting a Labrador puppie, there are none in the dogs homes so I was wondering how much I should roughtly pay at the moment ive been looking for them around £100-£300, what do you suggest?

[Gullable]

yeah, we have a black labrador, we paid £280 for ours and its worth it, they are such loyal, loving dogs + they have so much character.

The person i might be buying off lives in Kent, I wont be able to see the mother only in pics, also i dont know what the puppy will look like unless she sends me pictures and i pick.
Should I trust her?

[Gullable]

no way, some labradors have this thing wrong with them, dont know what its called, but there kind of deformed, you need to see the mother and puppies in person, ours came from london.

They're very good dogs Though, you have to be aware that pedigree labradors and the ones considered "large" start having leg and hip problems when they get older, but it's nothing to worry about. All dogs have some sort of problem the older they get

i wouldnt trust what she emailed, its a bit crude.
and yeah, best thing to do would be to see the mother + puppies, but thats obviously not an option.
i'd keep looking. have you tried http://www.epupz.co.uk/ ?
i'll admit the first time i saw it i was a bit sceptical (its not the most professional looking site) but its just somewhere where people can advertise thier puppies. i got my dog through it
then again you might know all this

Could go to your nearest vet, they should have places listed and some advice too
