Special's Australian Labradoodle Puppies

Special	Barkley and Waldo

Barkley looks a lot like his daddy, Waldo, but is a darker apricot colour...

After many questions about the male vs female debate, let me suggest that you be open to having a puppy of either sex and that you let us choose a puppy based on the personality and activity level of the puppy rather than gender.

Aside from the fact that all our parent dogs are chosen for their temperament/personality and that the Australian Labradoodle breed (which includes both boys and girls!) is characterized by their temperament, when they are spayed/neutered at seven weeks, we really do find that there is very little gender difference between the two. The males are NOT more dominant than the girls or the girls more 'nurturing' than the boys, both sexes are expected to be sweet natured and intuitive! In fact, even in our un-spayed girls and un-neutered boys found in our breeding program, both the males and females are gentle, good natured and easily trained. However, even the mildest and gentlest puppy requires training if it is to be a nice dog rather than an unmannered one!

Special's Puppies

This is Special's puppies at five weeks old! They are checking out the new smells and the spring daisies on the lawn...


Sweet, confident, social, this little fleece coated boy is utterly charming! He will have a curly fleece coat like his mom. He is now sporting a lime green collar and is going to theBout family in Calgary...

This sweet little guy is more active than some of his littermates, a friendly, nice natured little boy, confident and playful. He's now wearing a cream/floral collar for ID and is going to live with the Zemans in Washington...

This handsome fellow is a lovely natured boy with a fleece coat and cute brown nose. He snuggles in when picked up and is a gentle puppy. I like his width and stocky little body also. He is going to be loved by the Stewart family in Victoria BC. He is now wearing a pink collar for identification...

This adorable pup is a mellow pup, friendly and loving. He comes when called and likes to cuddle and settle in... He's a bit smaller than his siblings and has a curly fleece coat of dark apricot. He's now wearing a solid blue collar and is going to Vancouver to the Vrooms.

This friendly and handsome guy is a nice little puppy. He is not shy, but isn't bold either... He's a cute little fleece boy with nice width to him and good boning. He has a blue collar with silver paw prints on it to identify him, and is going to be loved by the McAuliffe family in Oxford Michigan where he will be trained as an assistance dog...

This little girl is the only girl in this litter, and she is a real snuggler, very sweet and affectionate! She is going to live in Victoria with Carole and Nelson...

Special's newborn puppy litter born March 7th 2007.
This is the proud mama with her new babies!

And here is the crew at 1 week old, napping!

I thought everybody would enjoy seeing how much they have grown since their newborn photo above! This is Special and her babies at three weeks old.

And here is the gang again...

I believe all of Special's puppies are spoken for. You may be interested in Dancer's litter, as there will be some smaller puppies in her litter, due to the fact that she was bred with a miniature Australian Labradoodle similar in size to Special. I expect Special's litter to mature to 16 or 17 inches in size, while Dancer's litter will be between 18 and 19 inches when full grown and possibly one or two the same size as Dancer herself. We will post updates every week or two...
