Blue Opal Labradoodles
Meet the breeder
I'm Joanne P., the breeder behind Blue Opal Labradoodles located in Maryland. Australian Labradoodles have been carefully bred. They come from a long line of parents who have been selected to maximize their health, their outstanding personalities, and their non-shedding, and allergy-friendly coats. Blue Opal Labradoodles are the result of the pure love with which we have birthed, raised and trained them.
Q. & A. with Joanne
Why did you start breeding?
We had always longed for a family dog, but because of my allergies and Asthma, it was difficult for us to adopt an ordinary dog. After much research we discovered that an Australian Labradoodle is definitely not an ordinary dog. This breed is perfect for us and it may be for you.What makes your program special?
We know that everyone wants their carefully thought-out purchase to be a totally positive experience. Just as every dog-owner dreams of having a healthy, happy, emotionally secure dog. We all want your canine family member to be content to rest at your feet when you are tired, but also perk right-up to play chase with the flip of a toy.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include medium and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
