Visitation:

As a small, home based breeder, we are unable to take visitors in our home. We do not have a kennel facility for visiting. Our dogs reside in our home with our family, and although we are always excited to talk about our wonderful Labradoodles and respond to your inquiries, we are unfortunately unable to  handle the interruptions to our home life and the care of our dogs and puppies. The Canine Parvo Virus is a deadly communicable disease that is a serious threat to young puppies that have not been fully vaccinated. The virus can be transferred by hands, clothes and even the soles of one's shoes, without one knowing that they have been exposed. Therefore, we do not accept visitors to see the puppies. We realize and appreciate your interest in wanting to meet and get to know our wonderful dogs, but we ask for your understanding regarding our no visitation policy, for the overall safety and well-being of our puppies.
