What makes our puppy program different...

We appreciate your interest in our fine line of hunting dogs and we believe we breed some of the very best natural pointing Labradors available. For 26 years we have hunted over, and have only selected the finest naturally pointing Sires and Dams to perpetuate our line.

Our dogs have proven their ability to point and retrieve every species of North American game bird. Starting with Pheasants, Chukars, Hungarian Partridge, Ruff Grouse, Blue grouse, down to every species of quail. Bobwhites in Oklahoma and Texas. Scaled Quail in Eastern Arizona, Valley Quail in Eastern Washington and California, Mountain Quail in Mexico and Gamble Quail all over Arizona. They have even dominated the elusive Mearns Quail in Southern Arizona. They are also very relaxed and a pleasure to be with in the duck blinds.

Tiger Mountain Pointing Labradors offers pups to the discriminating hunter. We are looking for the family atmosphere where the pup can flourish as a member of the family and hunt for upland birds and waterfowl. We are serious about our dogs and serious about our pups.

"A pup must demonstrate natural point and a great amount of birdiness to be labeled as a Tiger Mountain Pointing Labrador."

Evaluation

All our pups work birds on several occasions to be evaluated and they do not all point. Not all Labs posses natural point just because their parents point and we feel there is no other way to assure you of receiving the type of pup you want without putting them through an evaluation program. There are no pointing lines available that go deeper or have better documentation of producing natural pointing pups.

Through this evaluation program, we will designate pups to be placed representing our program as “natural pointers” and we will designate pups we’ll be placing as “non-pointers”. Some non-pointers do go on and point, but we’d rather underestimate a pup than place a pup as a “pointer” and then not have them develop as such (read our guarantee).

Price

The natural pointing pups are sold for $1000.00 each at 7-8 weeks of age and you can reserve a pup with a deposit of $200.00. The deposits are non-refundable.

With your deposit you show you are serious about owning a Tiger Mountain Pointing Labrador pup and you will be assured of a place in the pick order. However, it will depend on the success of each of our puppy evaluation as to whether or not you will receive a pup in the estimated time frame.

We are serious about our puppy evaluation and we feel it truly gives you a chance to own the type of Labrador you desire, a pointing Labrador.

Our non-pointers are placed at $600 and carry our same great guarantee, except the natural pointing portion.

We take the gamble out of receiving a pup with the desired natural talent of pointing birds and we are not going to ship a pup just because there is a home waiting for it. If it doesn't point, it will be placed in a home where pointing is not a part of the criteria. The pup must demonstrate natural point and a great amount of birdiness to be labeled as a Tiger Mountain Pointing Labrador.

If after we evaluate our pups and you are fortunate to be in line for one, your balance of $800.00 is due. This includes pups to be picked up here as well. We make no exceptions, we are serious about our pup’s future and if there is a problem with pickup or shipping we will skip you and move someone else up in your place. Everyone knows well in advance of potential date of their pup being ready and there is no reason of delaying their introduction into the family.

Shipping

If we are shipping your pup, we'll try to find the best flight available. There will be an additional charge for airport delivery and health certificate of $100.00. Please include this in your balance due. An airline approved crate is also needed, please contact us for details. Your pup is generally sent COD for the shipping charges. The shipping charges will vary depending on your part of the country, generally anywhere from $150.00-250.00.

Health

Our pup’s health is very important to us and we follow a program designed by a vet. We’ve placed several pups with vets who are amazed of the care, shots, etc. given to assure good health. The pups will have their dew claws removed, they will be wormed at 5-7 weeks of age and receive their first "Puppy Shot" at 6 weeks of age. We supply a completed shot record with dates, vaccines used and Microchip registration information.

Our puppy program is an expensive program to manage, however, it is our desire to maintain the integrity of our line and in order to do this, there are a lot of bird costs, Microchips and vet visits, but were serious about the pups that represent our name.

 

Guarantee

A Guarantee worth having...

We guarantee each and every one of our pups for any reason whatsoever up to 30 months of age. Along with this unique personal guarantee, we include health, hips and eyes. We also guarantee that you will receive a pup with natural point and back this portion of the guarantee with free training. This also includes the pups placed as “non-pointers“(except the natural pointing portion). If after the termination of one full season of wild bird hunting, or by 10 months of age, the dog has not displayed the natural point that has made Tiger Mountain Pointing Labs so exceptional in the field, we will train the dog at no charge.

There will be no charge for the kenneling/working of the dog; however, the owner will be responsible for all shipping/vet charges and the training will be limited to bringing out the dog’s natural point; it will not include basic obedience, etc.

Our intent is to place our pups in family situations where they will be hunted in the field for upland birds and in the blinds for ducks and geese. We do not want to place a pup in a situation where he/she will not get the benefit of a full productive life. If you are unhappy, not satisfied for any reason, we would like to have the pup back and we will be more than happy to refund the purchase price.

Our program is solid, successful and proven...
