Q. & A. with Cindy
Why did you start breeding?
When one of my daughters was 5 years old, she exhibited a fear of dogs. I have ALWAYS been an animal lover so I knew I had to do something to help her conquer her fear. My older daughter has asthma and allergies. I knew the dog had to be hypoallergenic. After researching, I came upon the Multi-generational Australian Labradoodle. Marley joined our family in 2009 and the rest is history!
What makes your program special?
Because I am a small breeder, all of my puppies get a lot of one-on-one attention and are very well socialized. I have a sensory toys for them to adjust to sounds and things touching them. I have slides, stairs and ramps for them to play on to learn balance. I introduce the crate to all of my puppies before going home. They have a very clean, comfortable place to spend their first 8 weeks.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature and medium sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include caramel ice, caramel cream, caramel, caramel red, red, apricot, cream, chocolate, black, and tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Elbow Dysplasia (Preliminary)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
