At eight weeks old.
How can I tell if I am allergic to a Doodle?
Despite common misconception, there is no such thing as a “hypoallergenic” dog. Allergens are carried in dander (dead skin cells), saliva and urine, so they’re impossible to escape. It is true that some dogs produce fewer allergens than others, but you can’t assume that Doodles across the board won’t set off allergies if you or a family member suffers from them. It would be best to spend time with several different doodles before making the choice to welcome one into your home.
Do you have a health guarantee?
Yes, we offer a one week health guarantee and two year genetic guarantee.
What are the different generations?
F1 - is a first generation cross in which the puppy is 50% Labrador Retriever and 50% Poodle. First generation puppies will have straight or wavy coats and most shed at least minimally.
F1b - is a back cross in which an F1 Labradoodle is bred with a Poodle. The puppy is 25% Lab and 75% Poodle. F1b puppies will either have wavy or curly coats and are likely to shed minimally and be allergy-friendly.
F1bb - is a back cross in which an F1b Labradoodle is bred with a Poodle. The puppy is 87.5% Poodle and 12.5% Lab. These puppies will most likely have a lot of curl and be great for families that have moderate to severe allergies.
What are the different coat types?
Straight is the most likely to shed, but will need less daily brushing and regular clipping.
Wavy is a nice mix of very little shedding and not a lot of daily grooming needed.
Curly is generally nearly non-shedding (no dog is totally non-shedding!) and best for those with allergies; but will require more upkeep including daily brushing and frequent grooming.
Can I visit my puppy before I pick it up to take it home?
Yes! We welcome home visits to those who have placed a deposit and reserved a puppy. We do not have a "facility" - all of our dogs are in our home, so we do try to keep these visits to a minimum.

Are puppies raised in your home?
Yes, always! Our puppies are raised in the heart of our home from birth up until the day they go home. We believe that being raised in an home environment creates extremely well-socialized and well-adjusted puppies.
What if something happens and I can no longer care for my Labradoodle?
We understand that different situations arise and we will always take our puppies back and be sure they are in the perfect home for them.
Can I stay in contact with you after I get my puppy?
Yes, please do! We love to hear about our puppies and how they are doing. We are always happy to help with any struggles you may be having with your puppy and furthermore, if you are ever having any health or temperament struggles with your puppy, please notify me immediately. It is very important for our breeding program to know of any potential defects.
​
Will my puppy fade or change color?
The fading gene comes from the Poodle and at this time is not genetically testable, so your puppy could potentially change color or fade.
Is my deposit refundable?
No, deposits are non-refundable. A lot of time is spent advertising and raising our puppies, and once a deposit is received, your puppy is reserved and other potential adopters are turned away. We are however happy to transfer your deposit to a future litter.
How can I pay for my puppy?
We accept cash, Zelle, CashApp, or personal check if received by six weeks of age.
