We wanted to be able to share this wonderful breed with others. My daughter who holds an MS in Biotechnology from John Hopkins University and I, with my MBA in business management, set out to breed the best of the best; temperament and soundness being our top priorities. Our breeding dogs are genetically tested thru various testing companies including PawPrint genetics, Embark and OFA. We are breeding multi-generational doodles for everyday family life with children or grandchildren.
Welcome to High Country Labradoodles. We are located just outside of Keene, NH. We are your typical family who just happens to enjoy Australian Labradoodles, Bernedoodles and Saint Berdoodles. We started out with a labrador retriever and we still have the dog hair to prove it. Our lab is an absolute love, but the shedding and constant vacuuming of dog hair was what prompted us to decide that our next dog would be non shedding. Our doodles are truly the most versatile and loving dogs with the added benefit of being low to non-shedding and allergy friendly. If you ever have had the opportunity to hug one its like having your very own favorite blanket to cuddle with.
We have 18 plus beautiful acres where our dogs love to romp and play! We do not kennel our dogs. Our breeding dogs are in guardian homes all around the area living their best lives. Our guardian home dogs go camping to soccer games, to Starbucks for a puppaccino and pumpkin picking in the fall. Our breeding dogs are a part of the community. Our breeding dogs live in guardian homes in beautiful NH, and they enjoy hiking, fishing, camping and the love of there families.
Here at High Country Labradoodles, our guardian homes begin the socialization of all of our puppies at an early age. Once the puppies are 8 weeks old our Big Blue Barn is designed for their continued puppy training and introduction to potty training. Everyone loves the Big Blue Barn!! Our puppies are house dogs from day one and are not whelped or raised outside, void of human contact. We do not own kennels and none of our dogs or puppies ever see a kennel. They are cherished and loved as all family pets should be. Our breeding dogs are in guardian homes and are beloved pets and a part of a family. Our guardian homes whelp the litter with all hands on deck and I can tell you the kids really love puppy raising time. Our pups get socialized as they should be from birth in a home environment surrounded by loving family and children.
We here at High Country Labradoodles believe that those first 8 weeks of a puppy's life are important for socialization and developing a loving temperament and, therefore, all of our pups are family-raised their guardian families home.
Our puppies are socialized with, not only, an abundance of children (young and old), but other dogs as well. We have very busy guardian home households. The pups will be surrounded by things like the vacuum, other dogs, the doorbell (everyone wants to see the puppies), dish washer, washer/dryer, the TV, music, and depending on weather, the potential for play time outside. We do start crate training and basic potty training.
We are located outside the Keene New Hampshire area and surrounded by the beautiful New England landscape. We do not allow visits unless a deposit is made. This limits the foot traffic and guarantees better bio security for our puppies. We only allow visit for puppies 8 weeks and older who have had their first vaccinations.
