Just wondering if any one has heard of these dogs. http://www.silverbulletlabs.com/ I have a friend that is looking for a dog that will strictly be a house dog and play with his two young boys. He wants one that is white is his only stimpulation. Looking for a pup. If anyone knows where some white one are let me know he's looking to buy now.

Never heard of them
But, if you are looking for a hunting dog, i dont think i would use some one that has "Our dogs are bred for looks, temperment, and hunting."
on the front page.
If looks are the first thing on their "want" list, i would look elsewhere.

Yeah Really, I noticed that when he wanted me to take a look at the page. I would not want one but no it is not for hunting house dog only.

Noted that $1000 for limited registration and 1500 for unlimited registration. I understand the limited part, but I didn't think most people just sold an unlimited for more money, I thought limitations were used to improve some factor on the dog.

They would work great in the snow!!!

It also said that the pups are bred to be family dogs.
I don't think I would want one if I was planning on trying to hunt with it.

What about Choctaw Labs, he talked with them and they have a litter just born there that is white. I told him that if he is not going to breed this dog or run the dog in some competitions then I would just find one that I liked from the looks and judge by the parents and not worry about the pedigree. Would you pay the 1k-1500 if it was not really going to count for anything such as breeding, just to say you have it? What do you guys think about that.

Your friend could save some frustration by skipping the puppy stage and look into these girls or something similar...

If he wants a house dog, my advice would be to save some money. There are plenty of labs in rescue or from backyard breeders that should fill his need...just an idea. Of course, health concerns come into play though...that's a definite downside.

Good luck!

Thanks for the reply but I know that he is wanting a puppy. This is decision going to co-mingle with his soon to be 2 year old little boy which wants a puppy as well.

Even for a pet I would still go with something out of Hunt test lines that has health clearences. Most HT dogs are not just machines but are nice pets as well. We are not talking about that much more money and when comparing to $1500 white dogs they are a steal if your patient and do some asking around.

I wouldnt pay 1500 for any lab puppy.... and I certainly wouldnt pay that for a pet. But if 1000 bucks for a 'white' lab bred to be a pet didnt stop your bud in his tracks, nothing you say will. travis (who wonders why he doesnt find sumthing goofy and knock peoples head off with it)

Kind of what I was thinking too. Maybe a OB, FF started dog but not a pup to turn out to be a couch potatoe, but I guess if thats what he wants then go for it. I guess those people @ the kennel that charge $1500 for those pups gotta eat too...........but not filet mignon every night!!!

Dang!!! NO edit button!!!! THanks for the info guys this should get him what he needs to know and thanks for the pms I have had on pups, I forwarded them on to him.

There is a place in Weir that has some usually. I got the # at the house. He sold his white ones for abut 350 - 450. That is where I got that Choclate one from that some sorry son of gun stole.

http://www.tripletlabs.com I bought my wife a white lab from them. Great house dogs. Very pretty and no desire to hunt. I think their pups usually are 600.--Ace

Labs are either black, yellow or Choc. There are no white labs maybe a light colored yellow and even then they can change as they get older lighter or darker.
