Each of our breeding dogs is a cherished member of a family! They live with our family or with a fantastic Guardian Family for their entire lives, walking the kids to school, camping, sailing, serving as therapy dogs, and doing all the things dogs love to do. Our Leapfrog Labradoodles moms and dads are not kept in kennels, and the quality of their lives is never sacrificed for the sake of producing puppies. Compared to puppies that go to pet homes, our breeding dogs get twice the love and have twice the number of people tending to their comfort, health, and well-being!
How our Guardian Home program works... Our pick of the litter breeding pups are placed with their special guardian families, free of charge, at 9 weeks of age. They grow up with their families, visiting us frequently so we can monitor their development and remain their favourite home away from home. Once they are old enough, we complete their rigorous health testing, at our expense, to determine if they meet our high standards for breeding. Females will return to our family for breeding, and to raise 3 litters in our home (not in an outbuilding, garage, or basement). Males will remain in our program for 5 years, coming to visit for short periods, as needed. |
We are a small, extremely conscientious breeding program with only 2 to 4 guardian homes at any one time. We produce 1-3 litters per year. The health and happiness of our dogs is integral to everything we do!
We plan to place 2 special puppies with guardian families in 2026. If you live in the qathet Regional District (Powell River) or Comox Valley and you are community-minded, ethically-inclined, curious, or just plain crazy about puppies (yes, you get to visit the puppies!), please visit our Guardian Home page for more information. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! |

Did you know... Leapfrog Labradoodles always has at least one of our resident dogs certified and actively volunteering as a therapy dog? Volunteering in local Therapy Dog initiatives with children and vulnerable adults helps us to 'keep it real' and maintain a focus on temperament as a top priority in breeding. |

As founding members of the Worldwide Australian Labradoodle Association, we are not producing puppies for puppies' sake. We are passionately committed to the enhancement of our breed!
Our Australian Labradoodle puppies come from top quality breeding stock with traceable pedigrees, and multiple generations of health testing behind them. They are registered with the WALA. We take pride in being part of a larger community of breeders whose integrity and dedication have made this breed what it is today! |
