Meet the breeder

I'm Brenda T., the breeder behind ProAct Canines located in Paw Paw, MI. Our dogs are bred to have top qualities that all families want in their puppies, such as compassion, patience, and love! Our love for our dogs pushed us to begin breeding. We love to see the results of our efforts in the sweet, happy, and healthy puppies that we’re able to share with others. We have many pups that have gone on to be service dogs and are in Training.

Q. & A. with Brenda

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We started Breeding Labradors Retrievers over 20years ago for our program to produce narcotic canines. We had the love for shepherds and bred Working line German Shepherds for about 8 years. Then happened upon our first poodle and doodles. We found especially the large Breed Saint Berdoodle being so intelligent and such a great family dog. We love our pups abd put our heart and soul into our program

  • What makes your program special?

    We at ProAct Canines love what we do! We try to ensure the best well rounded puppies that join your family. We love to follow their journey after leaving us. We always have open communication with our families even after the pups leave.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Labradoodle puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Labradoodle puppies include merle, caramel, apricot, cream, chocolate, and black. Saint Berdoodle puppies include sable, parti, merle-sable, merle, and brown and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    My experience with ProAct Canines was simply amazing! Brenda was super responsive and more than helpful in answering all my questions. There's no doubt that she takes pride in raising amazing dogs for others to benefit from. Candidly, when we are ready for another we will be going straight back to Brenda ... so please keep breeding :). Not enough great things to say about ProAct Canines, but for now, it's a massive THANK YOU!
