Hello and thanks for viewing our site.
We have no puppies available at the moment please see below for any planned litters for 2010.

We are planning 2 litter's of Labradoodles Both in March 2010.
Puppies will be ready to go from Early May hopefully just as the
weather is getting better. We have just started a waiting list for
these two litters. See Labradodles page for more details

All our puppies are kennel club registered where possible (We provide copies for doodle breeds All parents are kc
reg) and come with 5 generation pedigree, kc forms, 6 weeks free insurance,
worming record, full after care information sheets, we always do a scent blanket from the pups Mum for them to
take to there new homes and puppy packs( food, house training/setteling tips etc).
We always keep a list of enquiries regarding litters and
keep prospective owners up to date with the progress of the pregnancy.
When the litter is born we then contact everyone on the enquiries list and start to arrange viewings of the litter from
when the puppies are 3 weeks old. We also up date the website with pictures of the litter and individual pictures of
the puppies.
At this stage to reserve a puppy we require £100-£200 deposit (depending on breed), this can be done either by
coming down to see the litter
and if you and your family decide one of the bundles of trouble are for you, you then reserve the puppy of your
choice or you can send us a deposit via cheque for the puppy of your choice, its seems that more and more
puppies are being reserved this way nowadays. Many of our new puppy owners have such a distance to travel they
only make the journey for the collection. We have a great B&B just down the road which is run by a lovely farming
family and makes for a nice nights stay..

As the puppies are 8 weeks they are then ready for there new homes and you are more than welcome to
come and collect them anytime. We sometimes have puppies available at 8 weeks ready to go but generally most of
the litter are reserved before they are 8 weeks.

We take a lot of pride in breeding and raising the best puppies we can and from 6 weeks plus we always try and do
as much as possible with them. Take them on small car journeys on the school run, have little trips out in the
paddock to meet the chickens and next doors sheep the cats and our older dogs. A puppy needs to be fully
vaccinated (12 weeks old) before they can walk out in public areas but they can be carried to see and do as much
as possible from the age of 6-12 weeks the more people they meet and things they see the better.

We are always happy to keep a pup after the date they are ready many new owners are away and collect around
9-10 weeks, we will always start there vaccinations and continue house training/ socialising until you are ready to
collect.

HEALTH TESTING

If the breed/s are prone to any health issues parents should be tested no excuse there are tests to help keep breeds healthy for almost every
breed now of some sort or another.
I go on and on about this but it is so important and in most cases unbelievably easy to do. Its just an x-ray for the hip scoring at 1 year old and
having there eyes looked at by a vet on the bva scheme each year.

Please if you are looking for any breed of puppy check what health tests the breed needs and make sure the puppies parents have had them. If
a breeder does not even make the effort to do the basic tests you have to wonder how much thought has gone into the litter and there well
being.

With Poodle cross breeds even though its a new gene pool altogether crossing 2 breeds. If the breeds are prone to any health issues parents
should be tested it is just as important and you often find like with all Retriever breeds (Labrador/Golden Retrievers etc) they are prone to Hip
Dysplasia as are Standard poodle's so its very important that both parents are hip scored.

Various health testing is developing all the time and with DNA type testing becoming available not only can we check that a dog does not have a
certain disease the breed is prone to but we can also make sure the don't even carry the gene. Meaning there is no chance any offspring they
produce will ever suffer from these problems which i think is an amazing development. Its much more expensive than the basic tests but i truly
feel its the way forward. We have just started our DNA testing late 2009 and hope to complete the testing of all our dogs by the end of 2010.

Details of the testing for each breeds on there individual page and details of parents tests are written on each litter details.
