I'm Sara F., the breeder behind Hunter’s Moon Retrievers located in Howards Grove, WI. We have spent a lot of time researching and learning how to be responsible breeders. We wanted to make sure that we are not passing on genetic defects or breeding unhealthy litters. We take pride in the care that we give and want to pass our love of the breed on to others.

Getting a puppy from Sara
Sara has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
After buyers complete the application and screening process, Sara partners with them to find the best puppy match.
Price
Puppy prices include a $400 non-refundable deposit and between $600 - $1,000 final payment, before taxes & fees.
“This price includes a full AKC registration (no breeding restrictions), health guarantee for the first 26 months, deworming, dew claw removal, and first round of vaccinations. The deposit will secure your pick from the litter and the remaining balance is due when you come to take your puppy home. Picking of puppies will be done in the order that the deposits are received as most often people would like to wait until the pups are a bit older before choosing which puppy is right for them.”

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

About Luna
Luna was a sweet natured girl who loved to play fetch, retrieve birds and steal snuggles from her humans. We lost our sweet girl shortly after the last litter ofpups were born due to complications from the delivery. We miss her every single day.

Breeder-Reported Testing
Great level
Hunter’s Moon Retrievers reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Labrador Retrievers.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
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.
Eye Examination (rDVM, not registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
D Locus (Dilute) DNA test, DNA Disease Panel, Exercise Induced Collapse (EIC)
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).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
