Meet the breeder
I'm Mariah S., the breeder behind West Haven Australian Labradoodles located in Branson, MO.

Honest information, transparent practices, and a real relationship with every family.
Q. & A. with Mariah
Why did you start breeding?
We were introduced to Australian Labradoodle from a family member that has one. We fell in love with this breed because of their gift for service and therapy work, non-shedding coat, intelligence, gentle nature, and intuition. These dogs have a desire to please people and have a sweet personality. We loved these qualities so much that we wanted to be apart of sharing this breed with others.What makes your program special?
I believe that bringing a puppy into your home is more than a transaction—it's the beginning of a lifelong connection, and I want every family to feel supported before, during, and long after they bring their puppy home. I intentionally keep my program focused on quality over quantity. Every litter is thoughtfully planned, every puppy receives individual attention, and every family matters to me.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, 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.
Getting a puppy from Mariah
Mariah has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
Mariah partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 7 weeks old.
“Puppy selection takes place around 7 weeks of age. At that time, families will have the opportunity to choose their puppy from the available litter. That said, I reserve the right to guide and, when necessary, influence final placement if I feel a particular puppy’s temperament is not the best match for a family’s lifestyle. My goal is not simply to sell puppies, but to thoughtfully place well-matched companions who will enhance a family’s life, not complicate it. Puppy selection is a collaborative process that we go through together. By combining your preferences with my observations of each puppy’s temperament and development, we can ensure the best possible lifelong match. ”
