Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
We started breeding when I, Michelle purchased our first chocolate Labrador for my late husband. His name was Goofus. We loved him so much and he brought us a lot of love and laughter, so we welcomed another into our home; Lola a black female. Together we enjoyed many many adventures. We decided to breed them once to add to our family and that's when it all began <3
What makes your program special?
Sagebrush Labradors & Doodles is a small family-owned and operated hobby breeder. We remain small, having only one to two litters a year allowing us to give our adult dogs full on attention everyday as well as the pups when they are here. We pride ourselves in the all we do to ensure the health and soundness of our pups, and also for finding THE BEST forever families anyone can ask for.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include 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 red and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Good morning!
We have our flooring layed down, pen extended, and are all moved in!
(Still room for more expansion later)
I will keep the potty box close to their lounging area for a few days and then move it as shown in the 2nd picture when they are familiar with the larger area.
Later today, I will be clipping nails and trimming any hair under paws and between toes and introducing the wobble board!
Stay tuned!
