Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an Australian Labradoodle and a Labradoodle?
While Labradoodles are a cross between a purebred Labrador Retriever and a purebred Poodle, most people don't realize the Australian Labradoodle has a lineage of several purebred breeds including the Labrador Retriever, the Poodle, and the English or American Cocker Spaniel. To be classified as an Australian Labradoodle the dog's pedigree must include a combination of these three breeds and it's helpful if it can be traced back to the kennels in Australia where the breed first originated. There are different classifications of Labradoodles based on how many generations they have been bred. The multiple generations of breeding, or multigens, should produce the finest coats, qualities, and appearance. The Australian Labradoodle tends to be multigenerational while Labradoodles can be a variety of generations from early first crosses to multigenerational.
Why are Australian Labradoodles expensive?
I personally had this same question when we were looking at adopting our first Australian Labradoodle. I even found breeders out there who had puppies priced much lower. But after extensive research I learned that not all Labradoodles are created equal. I can confidently say you get what you pay for. Our breeding dogs start at the price of $12,000 before testing. All of our potential breeding dogs are extensively health tested (Heart, Cerf, Eyes, Thyroid, OFA hips, PRA, PRCD, ID, OFA Elbows, EIC, DM, PennHip and other testing for genetic diseases to name a few.
Our fully health tested parent dogs have their puppies in our home. We treat the puppies as our own for the first 8-9 weeks of their lives—sparing no expense for everything a puppy needs to live a happy healthy life. We make sure their living space is clean, provide deworming treatments, microchipping, health checks, first set of vaccines, and more. We are a responsible breeder and cutting corners at any cost is not part of our program. We do everything we can to assure our puppies will have happy, quality lives!
