Q. & A. with Cheris
Why did you start breeding?
Having fallen in love with Australian Labradoodles years ago, I was left with the decision of how to add one to our family. I called Gail Widman of Whispering Winds Labradoodles and she encouraged us to become family breeders ourselves. Her support was a great gift. The girls and I work together to support our home while caring for the needs of these little bundles of joy.
What makes your program special?
We are honored that all of our breeding dogs have come from Gail Widman, at Whispering Winds Labradoodles, and the President and Founder of Austrian Labradoodles Club of America. Before becoming breeders we were a foster family at an animal shelter in Snohomish County. We have fostered many kittens and our dedication to raising healthy animals is continuing with our Australian Labradoodles.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature and medium sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
