In my opinion, Shallowlake Lodge misrepresents it's "product" price. The labs are advertised as "AKC registered/registerable" for $1400. That price is for a pup WITHOUT papers. They charge $1600 for a limited registration and $3000 for full papers. I just purchased a pup with papers and champion dad and grandmother (mom is working on her title) for $1250. The pup is smart and healthy. Her mom and dad's hips are certified. Buyer beware - do your homework before handing over a non-refundable deposit.
I agree! This place is horrible! They change their name to hide, they lie, threaten with lawyers. Three a huge fit when we returned sick puppy and vet checked it out.
