Hill's Labs
Meet the breeder
I'm Sydney H., the breeder behind Hill's Labs located in Carmel Valley, CA. I am a Veterinarian with 23 years of experience. I have grown up with labradors and just adore their well rounded personalities and how great they are as family pets. The puppies are being well socialized, we are working on potty training and they are already learning to use a doggie door!
Q. & A. with Sydney
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
Getting a puppy from Sydney
Sydney has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.
Together, you’ll choose the puppy that’s right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.
Price
Connect with Sydney to learn more details about pricing.
“Puppies will be ready for their new homes at 8 wks of age. They will have their first two distemper parvo vaccines, microchip, deworming and flea control before going to their new home. A $500 deposit is required to hold a puppy (which goes towards purchase price).”
Contract & health guarantee
Sydney may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Sydney offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Sydney directly.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
