Labradoodle Puppies
Labradoodles are highly intelligent, happy, confident and loyal. They love water and like the dam and sire make excellent swimmers. Labradoodles are good natured with children and like the child can be mischievous and are quick to learn, especially when it is to their advantage! However, we would issue a word of caution to inexperienced owners with children under five. Labradoodle puppies, like all puppies, love to play but their play can be very physical and sometimes a little overwhelming for the toddler who is still unsteady on his feet. Equally they enjoy settling down quietly in the evening on the rug or the sofa for a cuddle.
The F1 (first cross) labradoodle puppy is outgoing and enjoys meeting other dogs and people. They need lots of interaction and stimulation or will become bored and miserable. They are not for the feint hearted and can easily outwit an inexperienced owner. They should not be expected to remain on their own for long periods but then no dog enjoys its own company for long. They are, above all, companion dogs and enjoy doing what we do and going where we go.
Unthinking owners can wonder why their lovely cuddly puppy has become a destructive rampaging ‘teenager’ when they are away from the house. Nine times out of ten it is because they have brought a puppy into a working household where the dog becomes last in the pecking order for attention on busy weekdays. That is not to say the labradoodle cannot be left. Like any other dog they have to learn to become part of our lives and sometimes that means being left at home for short periods. Good training in the early days carried out with kindness will give your puppy the security to know you’ll be back soon.
Your puppy would certainly enjoy going to puppy training classes for socialisation and you would be able to share in meeting like minded people and exchanging stories about your puppy‘s antics. Our puppies can be homed from the age of eight weeks providing we are assured that his/her new owners are well prepared and have everything ready to welcome their new addition into the household. Our dogs live within our family environment and the puppies are raised similarly. Consequently, in due course, they become used to our other dogs, our cats and visiting grandchildren. They have the opportunity to develop their individual characters with us on a one to one basis and get used to normal everyday living around the TV, the washing machine and vacuum cleaner. They have the experience of travelling in a car and spending time in a puppy crate for short periods. The puppies are microchipped and wormed at fortnightly intervals. We also provide the worming preparation for the next dose and the flea/tick preparation.
In addition, our Owners Folder contains
- Comprehensive care/diet sheet.
- Contract of Sale.
- 6 weeks Petplan insurance cover.
- Vaccination certificate where applicable.
- Worming Certificate.
- Microchip certificate.
- Copies of Pedigree Certificates and Health Screening certificates for Dam and Sire.
- Our assurance of ongoing support to you for the dog’s lifetime.
Please note that Labradoodle puppies are not recognised as a breed with The Kennel Club but can be registered on The Kennel Club’s Active Register, details of which are available upon request.
Homing our puppies
Our ultimate concern is to place our puppies in a happy secure household. We operate a strict screening system and ask a lot of questions so don’t be offended. We reserve the right to withdraw a proposed agreement to sell a puppy to you at any stage if we find that you do not meet our criteria. Puppies can be reserved with a deposit of £250. We shall ask you to complete a questionnaire initially and follow that up with a telephone conversation. If geography permits we prefer to meet our prospective owners prior to agreeing to home a puppy with them.
We also ask you to sign our Contract of Sale which sets out our obligations to you and yours to us, most importantly that if you are unable to keep the dog for whatever reason you will notify us immediately. For details of puppies available now or in the near future click here or email us if you would like us to send a questionnaire
