Australian Labradoodle Association of America

Who We Are

Lake Bay Labradoodles is a boutique breeder of authentic, ALAA-registered Australian Labradoodles. We trace our lines to the very first Australian Labradoodles bred in Australia 25 years ago to be allergy-friendly service dogs. Our dogs are multi-generational, meaning the Poodle, Lab and Cocker Spaniel foundation breeds are very far removed from the dogs we have now. And there is no Australian Shepherd in our lines! The methodical and consistent way we make breeding decisions is based on extensive health testing, and means we are confident in the size, coat and temperament of the dogs you will bring into your family.

We hand raise a small number of puppies in our home on Lakewood Bay, in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Our puppies are part of our family, until they go to be part of yours. We breed only the happiest, healthiest dogs with great coats. We develop life-long relationships with our families, have an active owners group, and are here to support you at all stages of your ‘doods life. Welcome to the Lake Bay family!

Our commitment

OUR PROMISE

We only have fully health tested, multi-generational Australian Labradoodles. Any dogs we select to be mama’s or dad’s have to pass extensive health testing. These tests include: Orthopedic Foundation of America (OFA) Hip, elbows, patella’s, heart and CAER eye testing (https://ofa.org/ ).

We also complete a second hip test, using PENNhip testing (https://www.antechdiagnostics.com/imaging-services/pennhip/ ), and our dogs are fully genetically tested for an extensive list of diseases, as well as color and coat types by Orivet (https://www.orivet.com/).

All of our breeding dogs’ health testing is available upon request, or by searching their full registered name at each of these sites.

You may also search each dogs 6 generation pedigree by going to https://alaa-labradoodles.com/ and entering their registered name. You will see none of our dogs have an inbreeding co-efficient above 3%. For reference, an ideal coefficient is less than 5%. Most “pure bred” dogs average 8%-20%+ .

We take the responsibility of methodical, planned, ethical breeding very seriously. That is why when you purchase a puppy from us, in the agreement you sign with us, you promise to never surrender your dog to a shelter. We ask that if anything changes and you can no longer support having one of our dogs, you pledge that you will return the dog we brought into this world back to us, so that we can re-home them. This is for their entire lifetime. No questions asked, no judgement made. We support and volunteer with shelters in our area to reduce the unwanted pet population, and do not want any of our doodles to end up in anything other than the pure bliss of a home we have hand-selected for them. Our goal is to place our dogs in their forever home the first time. But if it doesn’t work out, we will never abandon a dog we brought into this world.

We specialize in mini and medium size doodles, of different colors. We only breed dogs of exceptional health and temperament. All of our puppies are $3,500, and have a full 2 year health guarantee. We offer hand delivery anywhere in the US, contact us for details and cost.
