Great Day Labradoodles
Ethical Australian Labradoodle Breeder in Oregon
Great Day Labradoodles is a small, purpose-driven Australian Labradoodle breeding program based in Oregon. For over 16 years, we have focused on breeding healthy, temperament-sound Australian Labradoodles for families seeking predictable coats, stable temperaments, and lifelong breeder support.
Our dogs are raised in a home environment with careful attention to health testing, early socialization, and responsible breeding practices.
Current Litters
You can view our current litters here. Australian Labradoodle puppies are ready to go home at eight weeks of age, with the selection process taking place at that time. Reservations are accepted for current litters until they are fully placed.
Upcoming Litters
You can view our planned litters and estimated due dates here. We accept a limited number of reservations—up to four per litter—prior to birth. Families are encouraged to join the upcoming litters list to receive updates as plans are confirmed.
Guardianship
Our Guardian Program allows select Australian Labradoodles to live full-time in loving family homes while remaining part of our breeding program for a limited time. This approach supports ethical breeding practices and ensures our dogs are raised as cherished family companions — not kennel dogs.
An Experienced Australian Labradoodle Breeder
Great Day Labradoodles is owned and operated by Lisa Jenkins, an experienced breeder with over 16 years dedicated exclusively to Australian Labradoodles. Our program prioritizes health, temperament, and ethical breeding decisions over volume.
We believe reputable breeding starts long before puppies are born and continues throughout the lifetime of every dog we produce.
Comprehensive Health Testing
All breeding dogs at Great Day Labradoodles undergo extensive health testing, including:
OFA Hip Evaluations
OFA Elbow Evaluations
OFA Cardiac Testing
CAER Eye Exams
Ongoing veterinary oversight
Health testing is not optional in our program — it is a foundational requirement. We believe transparency and preventative screening are essential to producing healthy puppies and supporting responsible ownership.
Why Australian Labradoodles?
Australian Labradoodles are a purpose-bred breed developed for temperament, coat consistency, and family companionship. Unlike first-generation doodle crosses, multigenerational Australian Labradoodles offer:
More predictable low-shedding coats
Consistent temperaments
Reduced allergy triggers for many families
Proven suitability for therapy and service work
We focus exclusively on multigenerational Australian Labradoodles, not mixed doodle crosses.
How Our Puppies Are Raised
Our puppies are raised with intention, not shortcuts. Early experiences matter.
Our puppy raising practices include:
Early neurological stimulation
Gradual exposure to household sounds and environments
Age-appropriate socialization
Careful observation of temperament development
Each puppy is evaluated as an individual so we can guide families toward the best possible match.
Lifelong Commitment
We consider every puppy a lifelong responsibility. Families who adopt from Great Day Labradoodles receive continued support, education, and guidance — long after puppies go home.
Our goal is not simply placing puppies, but building lasting, responsible relationships.
Educational Resources
Families often have questions when researching Australian Labradoodles. We’ve created clear, educational guides to help you make informed decisions.
