Just as important as selecting the correct Australian Multigenerational Labradoodle for the characteristics you're looking for, is selecting the right breeder.

Good breeders turn out quality dogs; and there are many things that you can look for to determine whether or not a person or business is a good breeder. 

As with anything in life, sometimes referrals are the best way to find a quality breeder.  We share the references below here on our website to show you the excellent relationships we have established with our past customers...

Southern Sanctuary Labradoodles ReferenceCathi,

My lil' bear got groomed today and looks too fluffy like a little lion. They straightened his hair and it looks funny so today is a bad hair day for paddy.  I like the natural doodle not the fluffy salon look.  He has been going to daycare every so often to get some energy out but I just don’t like those places because you never know what really goes on but he is so playful and needs the interaction.

He has been great around my niece and nephew who are 4 and 6 and they LOVE him! Every day “where is Paddington” and they see him almost everyday. I will take one with myself as well and the kids for you to see because im not in any of these but will do it tomorrow bc will be with kids. Thanks for all of your concern and amazing feedback and recommendations. I appreciate your follow up and always taking my calls. It means so much. I Love my pup!

Southern Sanctuary Labradoodles ReferenceCathi,

Our experience with you at Southern Sanctuaries was extremely pleasant.  Cathi went out of her way to help us  receive our beloved Bella.  We live in Michigan and Cathi made sure Bella was shipped on the first plane of the morning going to Detroit before the temperatures rose to an unsafe level.   She drove several hours in the middle of the night to accomplish this feat.

Bella was a well socialized puppy and has been an absolute joy (with the exception of a few new teeth marks in several of our tables.)  She loves puppy kindergarten and will graduate in 2 weeks.  At school she is a bit of a social butterfly and has trouble concentrating on her lessons!!!!  She is now a hefty 16.5 pounds and growing in length. We would recommend Cathi to anyone looking for a new puppy.

Cathi and Ross Thompson have impressed me as owners who are making a serious attempt at improving the quality of the breed. Their willingness to research health issues, and then to insist on the confirmation of good health and bone structure makes them the type of breeder you could feel confident purchasing from.

Colonial Village LabradoodlesDear Prospective Puppy Owners and Friends,in 2008, Cathi and Ross Thompson contacted us about purchasing breeding stock to begin their Australian Labradoodle breeding program. We were hesitant to let our beloved Millie go as she was the smartest and cutest baby but Cathi won us over with her earnest and honest heart. She truly loves her dogs, the labradoodle breed, and everyone that comes in contact with her!I have been so impressed with the way Cathi has learned as much as she can about breeding and about the breed and how she has carefully selected her foundation stock and breeding opportunities for Millie.

She has researched excellent vet and breeding resources in her area that will assist in insuring your puppy will have an excellent beginning. Getting to know Cathi, you realize that you have made a friend for life. I am honored to be called her friend and mentor and I cannot wait to see the precious babies that Millie will produce.
