Q. & A. with Mark & Karen
Why did you start breeding?
We are passionate about what we do. We are very skilled in the medical field and are keen to all of our puppies and dogs needs. Karen and I are Diagnostic Ultrasonographers. I am registered in Cardiac and Karen in Vascular Ultrasound. Karen performs our own Pregnancy confirmation ultrasounds and I am able to do the Cardiac Ultrasound for dogs that need cardiac clearance health testing myself.What makes your program special?
We were one of the first Australian Labradoodle breeders to incorporate a Bio Sensor Program for all of our puppies between the ages of 3 to 16 days old. An early neurological stimulation program called the “Superdog program” We also trained several other Australian Labradoodle breeders how to incorporate this program into their breeding program because it is so beneficial to the dogs.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
