Q. & A. with David
Why did you start breeding?
When it was time for me to get a dog of my own, I knew I wanted some specifics: small/medium size, non-shedding, health, longevity, even-tempered, and versatile! To my surprise, that breed was not a purebred dog—it was an Australian Labradoodle! I have not looked back since and I’ll never not sleep next to an Australian Labradoodle!What makes your program special?
I only breed dogs with perfect temperaments. My dogs are bred to be confident, happy, playful, obedient, calm, and even-tempered companions! Perfect health is never compromised and all babies are raised in our home.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature and medium sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red and apricot. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
