Our Puppies

For the first time in Big Creek Labs' history we have 3 litters whelped within weeks of each other. But rest assured, David is home full time to care for mom and pups. Each mom has her own private room and

we have been whelping pups for a long time and will be able to provide the same high level of care and attention that we always given to our pups.

When we whelp a litter of pups, they will be born and raised in our house. Pictures will be posted each Sunday night. Pups will be registered with AKC and UKC, micro chipped and be current on all shots and worming, and have dew claws removed. They will also be introduced to water, retrieving, birds, whistles, and simulated gun fire. A written warranty (click here to see copy) will be provided along with written documentation of all shots and worming.

Selection of pups begins around 6 weeks of age and goes in the order in which deposits are received.

Your new companion will go home with a started kit which includes a sample of the food your pup has been started and information on proper care.

We feed our puppies Purina Pro Plan Sport - All Life Stages. We feed 3/4 cup twice a day. Pour just enough water over the food so that it starts to float. The reason for the water is so that the pup does not gobble up its food too fast. You should continue this when your pup goes home with you. If you wish to feed a different food, please transition the pup off its current food by mixing 1 part new food to 3 parts ProPlan. Each day gradually decrease the ProPlan and increase the new food until you have totally transitioned to the new food.

Yeager started running hunt test at Charleston HRC, March 17, 2018 where he earn first Season pass. He then on to go 4 for 4 to receive his Season title March 25, 2018. Only a week later Yeager earned his first Finished pass April 21, 2018 at Costal Empire. On May 20, 2018 Yeager earned his Finish title at Carolina Boykin Spaniel HRC. Even at the young age of just barely 2 years of age, some would refer to Yeager as the “Southern Gentleman” due to his calm demeanor walking up to the line and sitting by my side waiting for the birds to launch and the fun to begin. He is such a well behaved dog and he is a pleasure to watch and run. As Yeager continues to consistently improve and mature, I look forward to getting him ready to run a Grand Hunting Retriever Champion Hunter series. When we are not running hunt tests I also look forward to having him by my side in the dove field and duck blind.

Life for our puppies starts in our house in a specially built whelping pen. The pen is constructed of material that is easy to wash so that the puppies are in a clean environment. The floor of the pen is vented so that all waste from the puppies falls through and they will remain clean and dry. The pen also has a "pig rail" around the perimeter. The rail insures that the puppies are safe and will not accidentally get penned between mom and the wall. A brooding lamp is placed in the pen for warmth as the puppies require help in maintaining body heat in the first weeks of life. It is important to us that the puppy pen is clean and dry. This will make house breaking easier.

At six weeks of age the puppy's personality has become distinct and it is time for prospective new owners to select their new puppy. The selection process begins in the order in which deposits are received. At 6 weeks of age, the puppies start going to their new homes if they are being transported by vehicle. However, if the pup is being transported by plane, it must wait until 8 weeks of age.

At 4 weeks of age we start to introduce the puppies to duck calls, a whistle, and gun shot blanks (at a distance). At 5 weeks, live birds are introduced. Although we know that all the pups we sell will not become gun dogs or compete in hunt tests or field trails, we feel it is important to introduce these smells and sounds early so that it learns to get excited by this type of stimuli and not afraid. At this stage we also place a small puppy crate with the door removed in their whelping pen to encourage their natural urge to "den". This also helps if you intend to use a crate for house breaking as they find comfort in nestling with each other inside.

Most professional trainers believe that 49 days is the best time to start basic obedience training. Basic obedience commands consist of sit, come and fetch. Most important, always keep the sessions short and fun. Leave the puppy wanting more.
