Meet the breeder

I'm Terra S., the breeder behind Terra's Swann's Kennels located in St George, UT. I have 14 years of experience breeding Labradoodles, I am committed to responsible, ethical breeding , I prioritize health, structure, and temperament. I ensure each puppy receives the individual care, attention, and socialization they need. They are raised in my home, where they are a part of my family from day one.

Q. & A. with Terra

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My sweet daughter was born with constant ear infections that went un-diagnosed for 3 years. She couldn't hear and so we began the heart wrenching task of trying to plan and find a diagnosis for her. I got my first Labradoodle Kona with the express purpose to train him to retrieve her when she wandered off. He was heaven sent, and I began to share my love of Labradoodles with others in need.
  • What makes your program special?

    My level of intention, experience, and hands-on care. Over 14 years dedicated specifically to Labradoodles, I know the breed and built it on consistency, not trends. As a home-based breeder, my puppies are raised in a real-life environment with daily interaction, early exposure, and individualized attention. I value long-term commitment—not just to my dogs, but to the families who welcome them.
  • 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.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include parti, caramel, red, apricot, cream, chalk, chocolate, parchment, black, silver, 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.
