Why a Kings Labradoodle?
Kings Labradoodles are our family pets. They live their best life exploring different parts of the Illawarra by day and snuggle up every evening in the lounge room with us.
Kings Labradoodles breeds Medium Multigenerational Australian Labradoodles.
Kings Labradoodles is a member of the Australian Labradoodle Association. www.laa.org.au
This means Kings Labradoodles is a breeder that follows the ethics and policy’s set down by the ALA to ensure the well-being of the dog is at the forefront of all decisions.
Health and Temperament are our primary considerations when choosing our breeding dogs. Our dogs are hip and elbow scored and health tested to ensure any genetic issues aren’t passed on.
My primary goal as a breeder is to ensure when a pup goes to it's new home, it stays there until it crosses over the rainbow bridge after a long happy life.
To help achieve this, I want to assist people in understanding the difference between a 1st Generation Labradoodle and Multigenerational Australian Labradoodle as well as the difference between "back yard" breeeders and ethical and reputable breeders. Please read the "What you need to know" page.
We are based in the Illawarra, about 2 hours south of Sydney in NSW, Australia.

AUSTRALIAN LABRADOODLES NEED TO BE A MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY
Over my lifetime I have owned several different breeds of dog, all of which I have loved dearly and treat them as a member of our family. They have all been in the lounge room with us every night, come on holidays with us and slept indoors. Out of all the breeds I have owned, I find the Australian Labradoodle needs to be with it's family more so than any other breed I have owned. They are not a dog that can be left in the backyard. They want to be with their "Pack". They are an exceptionally intelligent dog and will soon find ways to entertain themselves, which will include digging and chewing their way through your yard if they aren't included in the family.
TRAINING AND SOCIALISATION IS A MUST
Training your pup is essential.
Starting with Puppy Pre-school, where you as the owner, will learn a great deal about caring for your pup and your pup will learn correct socialising skills. as well as foundational commands. (I highly recommend, *Best Friends Pets at Stockland Shellharbour if you're in the Illawarra area)
Because the Australian Labradoodle is an intelligent breed, they benefit from additional training. (I highly recommend, *The Dog Project)
Socialising your pup is also essential, especially the first 12 weeks. Spending time exposing your pup to as much as possible in that time helps develop a confident dog.
Crate training is a personal choice, but for me, I wouldn't have a puppy without crate training it. This is for many reasons;
- It helps with toilet training, because puppies don't like to toilet in their sleeping area.
- You are able to leave a puppy at a groomers or vet without causing anxiety.
- You know when you go to sleep at night, they are safe.
- It gives them a place that is theirs, a place they can retreat to when they want some space.
*no personal gain is received, these recommendations are from personal experience only,
NORMAL PUPPY BEHAVIOUR
When you bring your pup home, it will cry, it will toilet inside, it will mouth (also described as biting), it will chew things it shouldn't. This is all normal puppy behaviour and how you deal with it will make a difference to how your puppy grows and develops. PATIENCE AND CONSISTENCY ARE A NECESSITY.
Multigenerational Australian Labradoodles
Both Charli and Meadow are our foundation girls.
Both girls, once matured and all health testing is complete and satisfactory, will become breeding dogs.
