For Sale/Trade: RainShadow Lab Puppies
« on: May 02, 2023, 08:34:45 AM »
Available for Reservation/Deposit!

RainShadow Labradors Lily / Milo Litter born April 15, 2023. Available for Pickup/Delivery June 24.

1 Black Male
1 Choc Female
3 Choc Males

(The rest are already spoken for.)

At rainshadowlabradors.com we pride ourselves in producing excellent Lab Puppies who are conditioned and trained (Yes, at 10 weeks!) to LISTEN! 

Our puppies never live feral when humans are present. They respect the gate, they respect the food tray, they respect the person (jumping, yapping, etc), they're learning all the commands related to a leashed walk around the property, they're learning 100% proper fetching form during play training sessions, they listen for command, they listen for release, they are already programmed to respect... yes, at 10 weeks!

They're "Started" and ready for you to take over!

We don't use negative re-enforcement, we don't use treat training, (although you could incorporate either, seamlessly) and we've had AMAZING results in our pups!

Pups have dew claws removed, ENS therapy from Day 5,  RainShadow Puppy Conditioning from 4 weeks, De-worming, Immunization Shots 1 and 2, and are AKC papered without restrictions. 

(Parents are both OFA Excellent Hips & Normal Elbows, live a hunting/companion lifestyle, and have perfect eyes and health. Sire has 18 Blings on his pedigree, including a great grandfather NAFC.)

Contact me to reserve a Pup for late June!

Back home from a working weekend, and back into ENS therapy...

The sessions are different now that we have Eyes and Ears, in addition to Nose!

I'm doing every step of the therapy with the puppy right in my face, giving it calming reassuring tones, and then loves and snuggles AS SOON as the puppy stops struggling. This is INSTANTLY being received and understood by these babies, as they immediately go into deeper calm and trust. (Oh. Ok... you've got me, I'm ok.)

Seems minor and inconsequential, but I'm finding it's huge in establishing the trust and reliance on the human for security and calm.

They're ALREADY LISTENING!!!!

We start the ENS Therapy at day 4, as they get to this age (26 days) we’re ending ENS and transitioning to food dish manners.

The last stage of ENS is with a different focus: Puppy making eye contact with me, hearing me, relating the familiar breath with the voice… THEN I give positive feedback when the switch from struggle to calm.

Through this exercise, they’re prepared to see me, hear my voice, and understand that when I switch to positive feedback (the praising, loving, happy-with-them affectionate voice) that they’re doing the desired behavior. They’re ready to start sitting and waiting for their food… and they’re not even weaning yet!

Here’s a video from today…

They’re ready to start the real puppy conditioning!

Introducing slurried food today, weaning probably by next week.

Boys (that’s all I have left) are 1000$ OBO/Trade





I am also looking for a very worthy recipient of one of these excellent pups for free. Prefer youth or senior who is both prepared and interested, but I will consider any worthy nominations.

Ideal hunting or service pups. They’ll be prepared for training and assimilation better than any other puppies on the market.

Please feel free to nominate a recipient!

Short video describing how I introduce the first servings of puppy food to the pack… attention goes to the HUMAN, not the food. Setting a lifelong pattern.

A guy sold me a lab for $40 when I was a teenager. I spent an hour per day training for a year… best dog I’ve ever heard of, much less owned. 200yd hand signals for complete strangers… stop mid retrieve, lie down, cast to a different bird, deliver, return to first bird, deliver, all on specific commands… literally out of sight salt water retrieves on diving cripples… in training she would fetch triples stopping and switching several times between dummies, all on command… she would literally flip my arm into the air until I woke up when she had to go, instead of going in the house… no force fetch, no negative reinforcement

If you know of a recipient who will appreciate the opportunity and take it very seriously, (potentially field trialing, or other legitimate goals) nominate them!

Excellent FIRST session waiting for food!

Caught the whole thing on video!

4yo interrupted, but merely a side show to how quickly these babies “Get It!”




Inquiries, but still 4 boys unreserved as of this posting…

Pretty cool to watch. Won't take long at all and they will know. I am a firm believer in starting them young with all manners like this
