In our home state of Kansas, the regulations for puppy care are more exacting and demanding than the standards established by the federal government. We choose from only USDA-licensed and State-licenced breeders (if applicable) who have the highest standards of cleanliness and health care. Each of our breeders or suppliers furnishes an up-to-date record of the health care and vaccines each puppy has received when it is delivered to us.
Kennel Technicians/Holding Rooms
Thermostatically controlled holding rooms combined with complete humidity control are the temporary homes for the puppies we buy from you. Our pens are fiberglass for easy sanitation with rubber-coated flooring and catch trays underneath. Each pen is equipped with Oasis glass water bottles and food bowls. Each room has its own puppy nurse supervised by a kennel technician. In addition, a night technician monitors puppy comfort at night. Ceiling speakers with piped in mellow music create a peaceful atmosphere of reduced stress.
Truck Pickup/Delivery
Lambriar puppies are received from the breeder and delivered to our facility by our own climate controlled custom built trucks. The trucks are manned by an experienced, friendly buyer and co-buyer. While one drives, the other is in charge of constant supervision, feeding, watering, and cleaning. The buyer and co-buyer are not only certified in proper pet care, but are also trained to recognize health and breed quality of the puppies to help ensure that each puppy arriving at Lambriar is the healthiest pet-quality puppy you can buy. Each truck is custom built especially for Lambriar for transporting puppies. Trucks have built-in spacious pens, superior dual heating and air conditioning units, and a generator unit per each vehicle. Our trucks are designed for the comfort, health, and safety of the companion pets we transport.
Companion Animal Recovery
Lambriar began microchipping puppies in October of 2000. Each puppy that arrives here is microchipped prior to shipping. This program has proven to be successful for pet stores and pet owners alike. Several lost and stolen puppies have been identified and recovered because of the microchip. A microchip is a tiny transponder about the size of a grain of rice. The chip is implanted into the puppy using a simple procedure similar to a routine vaccination. Since no anesthesia is involved, and the chips are made out of hypoallergenic material, adverse reactions to microchip implantation are virtually zero.
The microchips used for animal identification are “passive electronic devices”. This means that the chip itself does not give out any sort of electronic activity on it’s own. Once it is implanted, the microchip remains inactive until read with a scanner. Scanners send a low frequency signal to the chip, providing the power needed by the microchip to send its code back to the scanner. Each chip is individually inscribed with a unique ID number; no two microchips have the same code number. The code cannot be altered or lost. Registration is simple and cost effective for the consumer.
Involved
We at Lambriar are in a unique position to advocate for the animals we care so much about. We provide educational seminars to educate breeders and pet store owners on the latest in pet care and humane treatment.
Our efforts have extended to the Kansas state legislature and the United States Congress. We are motivated by our love for animals and our belief that the pet care industry is responsible for relaying up-to-date knowledge of animal care and wellness. We work diligently to improve rules and regulations controlling pet handling, care and treatment and breeding and records management so that animals of all types are treated with respect.

At Lambriar we are dedicated to serving our breeders. If you have questions about the health of your puppies, kennel management, or just need a quick tip, please feel free to give us a call. Our veterinary staff welcomes any questions you may have about the health and well being of your puppies.
