Meet the breeder

I'm Debbie Y., the breeder behind FernRidge located in Veneta, OR. Our puppies are raised in our house. They are well socialized. All puppies that are sold as pet quality, will be spayed/neutered. We live on 8 wooded acres for plenty of room for our Labradoodles to run. We breed some of America's Finest Australian Labradoodles carefully bred from experience for sound temperaments, health, coats that are allergy-friendly and non-shedding as well as, conformation!

Q. & A. with Debbie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I purchased an AKC English Springer Spaniel in 1968 from a breeder with an agreement that I bred her back to one of there studs and they get a puppy. That was my first litter in 1970
  • What makes your program special?

    We start with great temperments in our ALD's. Even though we cannot show this breed, the structure is very important in my dogs. We fully test!
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are medium size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
