Labradoodles, Goldendoodles puppies for sale in Ohio

Labradoodles are among the standard sized Designer dogs.  They are a mix between the Labrador Retriever and a Poodle, usually a Standard Poodle. As common when breeding a smooth-coated dog to a long-haired dog, first generation Labradoodles' coats are more likely to shed. First generation Labradoodles typically have wiry coats as well. Breeding a Labradoodle back to a poodle usually produces the desired non-shedding that is more curly. Labradoodles have been intentionally bred since the 1980’s and are known to be intelligent dogs that are easily trained as guide, therapy, and assistance dogs for disabled and handicapped people. Though these dogs are considered gentle and safe with children, due to their larger size, they could be a bit overwhelming for a toddler or small child. The Labradoodles love water and are playful and energetic creatures that supply loads of family fun.

The Goldendoodle, sometimes called a Groodle,  sprung into popularity in the 1990’s. These gentle giants are affectionate, intelligent socialites. Their life span is generally 12-15 years. The standard size is usually 20-24 inches tall at the shoulders and 60-90 pounds, but it would depend on the size of the parents. The Goldendoodle is highly trainable and often trained as guide dogs, service dogs, therapy dogs, and sniffer dogs. They are not, however, suitable as guard or watch dogs because of their lack of aggressiveness. The Goldendoodle makes a wonderful family pet. They are non to light shedders and a possible match for those with allergies. They should be brushed at least a couple times a week and most people opt to keep them clipped in a shorter cut.

ABOUT US:

 We got our first poodle 12 years ago when my children wanted a dog and was looking for one that didn't affect their allergies. We had so much fun with the pup that we considered hiring a stud and having a litter of our own; only to find out that for the price, we could buy another little boy. So we did, and our little venture built from there.

 I specialized in chocolate toy Poodles and had a very good champion line going back to San Gai and Callimont Kennels.   For many years, I had only three females and a little boy. These dogs were my pets as well as my passion. Although my pups primarily go to people for pets, I did sell a couple every year to breeders, but only sell to in-home breeders.

 A few years ago I gave my friend, Carol her first male poodle and she started breeding on the same scale as I. Later she bought a Cocker Spaniel and allowed her male to breed. The pups were a hit! Little by little we realized the advantages of "designer pups" and I was introduced to an exciting variety of dogs that did not shed and puppy mixes that my children could tolerate. Thus, our passion for these new “Puppy-poos” was born.

I do all the advertising for the babies. Our homes are hopping and busy, and our children have joined in and earn some college money at the same time.  Carol has introduced the Puggles to our lovely designer pup selection, which are the only smooth coat breed we do. Carol and I are privileged to raise a variety of adorable critters all year round. I feel so fortunate because I get to do what I enjoy most.

We choose our breeding dogs for health and personality. They are our pets. Our goal is not champion or show quality. Our desire is to produce a sweet tempered, loving personality to be companion dogs. Several of our pups over the years, however, have been trained and used as service and therapy dogs.

We allow our girls to skip their first heat and every third heat thereafter. The pups are born in our home and wean in their – and mom’s - own timing. The pups need to be 8 weeks old to leave. If they are of a very small breed or are nursing longer than usual, we may choose to keep them longer.

I am a member of Breeder's Club, my "kennel" (it’s more of a nursery in my home, rather than an outside kennel) is licensed by the county, and I have regular inspections from the PSCA and a licensed DVM.

At this time, there is no credible registry for the designer pups. Our adult dogs are AKC or CKC registered. You can find reviews for me on Puppy Find and see Sherry’s Posh Pets on Face Book. All pups are de-wormed on a regular basis, vaccinated, and come with a one year health guarantee for any genetic defects because we are confident in the quality of our babies. 

We raise our pups for temperament and personality; working on trust and responsiveness from an early age.  All pups come with at least their first vaccines, two de-wormings, care pack and instructions, and a one year written health guarantee.

All of our babies are well loved, pre-spoiled, and well socialized to people and other animals.  Our babies deserve good homes, so convince me that you will love your new little one.

So, who says you can’t buy love?
