- CNM
- Centronuclear Myopathy — an inherited muscle disease.

- Exercise-Induced Collapse.

Questions
Puppy FAQ
How much is a Quarryridge puppy?
Pricing depends on the litter. Please contact us for current pricing and deposit details.
When do puppies go home?
Puppies are typically ready for their new homes at around 8 weeks of age, after their veterinary health check and first vaccines.
What does “HNPK carrier” mean?
A carrier has one copy of the gene but is not affected. Because Bear is clear on his full Labrador genetic panel, no puppy from Quill × Bear can be affected by HNPK.
What colours are expected in the upcoming litter?
Quill × Bear is expected to produce black and chocolate puppies.
Where are you located?
We’re in Fonthill / Fenwick (Pelham) in the Niagara Region. We’ll share directions when a visit is arranged.
