Q. & A. with Kathi
Why did you start breeding?
We started breeding for a change in lifestyle and a way forward. Over the years, we have had experience in raising and loving Golden Retrievers and dealt with a lot of shedding and allergies. When we started to look for a new pup to add to our family, we came across the Australian Labradoodle. We fell in love with his personality, intelligence, beauty, and hypo-allergenic qualities! After much time spent researching, we decided to become quality breeders of this phenomenal breed!
What makes your program special?
We are enthusiastic about our program and look forward to advancing the wonderful qualities of the Australian Labradoodle with a focus on health, temperament, and non-shedding coats! Our puppies are born, hand-raised, and loved in our home as part of our family to ensure a reliable temperament and cherished companionship. Rest assured, when a Lakeview Labradoodle puppy becomes a lifetime family member, you can expect an intelligent, beautiful, and affectionate companion!
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include caramel, red, apricot, chocolate, and cafe. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
