Meet the breeder

I'm Danielle T., the breeder behind Southern Meadows Doodles located in Decatur, AL. For over 8 years we have served families by helping find their new best friend. We love caring & connecting our puppies with families who cherish them, as we do. Our dogs live in our home. We provide care for your fur baby as our own, and ensure they receive the best care until you take them home.

Q. & A. with Danielle

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We started raising Goldendoodles and quickly fell in love with the joy of having puppies in our home. As we learned more, we discovered the Australian Labradoodle and knew it was the perfect fit—smaller, allergy-friendly, and wonderfully family-oriented. We followed Puppy Culture methods to raise healthy, happy puppies who grow into loving companions for the families who welcome them home.
  • What makes your program special?

    What makes our program special is that every puppy is truly raised as part of our family. With six of us in the home, our pups are surrounded by love, learning, and play from the very start. We use Puppy Culture and Baxter & Bella methods to build confidence, focus, and good manners. Each puppy leaves our home well-socialized, loved, and ready to transition smoothly into their forever family.
  • 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 caramel, caramel red, red, apricot, cream, chocolate, black, and tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

    Danielle was quick to respond and answer any questions I had about Millie (aka Payton)! Their website was super helpful preparing to get ready for a puppy and had lots of recommendations for supplies and training preparedness. They were able to meet us halfway to meet and drop Mille with us and provided a binder with all her information we needed to get started which was a HUGE help. They were professional and organized and I love that they are a family business with their kids! We are absolutely head over heals with her!

    I’m not sure we can truly say how wonderful our beautiful Regge is and how wonderful souther meadows and Danielle were through the whole process. And I am absolutely sure that their care and training during the first 8 weeks is what makes our beautiful dog so amazing. Thank you Danielle we are so in love with Reggae and he is PERFECT in every way!

    Danielle was very helpful and I love that they provide so much information about the puppy which is super helpful for a first time puppy owner like myself. I had a great experience and Lady Francisca is super sweet, adorable and lovable puppy 😊

    Ben is my second Aussie and my experience with Southern Meadows Doodles was flawless. Communications telling me about the litter progress and Ben individually was very important and welcomed. I will certainly get my next Doodle from Southern Meadows.

    Danielle was very responsive when we inquired about our dog MJ. Even in Thanksgiving day she answered all questions and responded in a timely manner. We picked up our pup the next day! She was very accommodating and met us halfway to deliver our new family member! We are a couple of months in and he is the best dog! He is very well crate trained and already was when we got him. He has done really well with potty training. He has the best temperament. And trust me he has been desensitized to all noises and energy with my 10 and 6 yr old boys! He is a sweetie and we love him so much! I would definitely recommend Danielle to anyone looking for an ALD!
