I'm Gena F., the breeder behind Running Brook Doodles located in Brush Prairie, WA. My goal is to produce the best representation of the Australian Labradoodle and to continue improving the line with each generation. I breed for health, temperament, and a hypoallergenic coat.
Q. & A. with Gena
Why did you start breeding?
I have always been allergic to dogs, and I was so excited to find a breed with a hypoallergic coat. I love my dogs and decided to start breeding so I could share this amazing breed with others. Although I am fairly new to breeding, I am enthusiastic about sharing my love for Australian Labradoodles with the world!
What makes your program special?
I love Australian Labradoodles and am dedicated to looking out for the breed as a whole. I have an amazing mentor with who I work very closely to ensure I always have responsible, ethical breeding policies. I am very dedicated to what I do and what I aim to achieve as a breeder. I work with passion, heart, and integrity, and I truly want what's best for my puppies and their forever families.
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 caramel, cream, chocolate, lavendar, parchment, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
