How did you hear about LegaSea Labradors?

To promote responsible breeding, all of our puppies are sold on a Limited Registration basis.  Limited Registration means that the the puppy is eligible for registration with the American Kennel Club and can compete in agility, obedience and hunt tests, but not in conformation competition.  Any offspring produced by the dog would not be able to be registered with the AKC.  Since most puppies purchased from LegaSea Labradors are purchased as companion dogs by owners who have no interest in breeding or showing, limited registration has no bearing on these dogs or their owner.  Should an owner decide to become involved in breeding/showing in the future, and the dog is deemed to be breeding/showing quality, the option for LegaSea Labradors to reverse the registration and allow full registration is available.
