TESTIMONIALS

  • When we decided to get our first puppy we did a lot of research and looked into a few options but just never felt that anything was the right fit. The moment we spoke to Melissa, we knew that she was the breeder for us! She was so kind and patient and knowledgeable and we could tell right away that she loves what she does and cares deeply about her fur babies and ensuring they go to the right families. Melissa was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process and kept us in the loop every step of the way. It was so exciting to be a part of the journey. Our precious Jax from Bailey’s summer litter is more than we could ever have imagined or hoped for. He is so well adjusted, calm, sleeps through the night, smart … I could go on and on! Thank you to Melissa and her wonderful family for giving our fur baby the best start in life! We could not be happier or more grateful.

  • My fiancé and I were looking to add our first family dog and didn’t even know where to begin. We spent months speaking to breeders and nothing felt right. Then my aunt told me about a client of hers who bred Australian Labradoodles. I got in contact with Melissa and she very informative and answered all of my questions. The breeding process is something that is very important to us and Melissa walked us through the steps and kept us in the loop on vet appointments, scans, and we even received a play by play of the births! To say that Great North Australian Labradoodles goes above and beyond is an understatement. Our little Murphy is 6 months old and is so smart, cuddly, and well tempered. He is the best addition to our family! I would whole heartily recommend anyone who is looking to add a family dog to get in contact with Great North Australian Labradoodles!

  • I couldn't be happier with my choice to get my pup here. Melissa is so helpful and responsive, with so much demand right now it is so difficult to get in contact with anyone and she responded quickly. She truly takes the time to walk you through the process from when the pup's mom is pregnant, to the day you bring them home. I couldn't be happier with the amount of effort and time put into to the choice of getting my pup Mia!

  • This is our first time ever owning a puppy. We are in our 50’s 😳 We were not sure what to expect, we were so nervous and had so many questions. Melissa, was amazing to work with so patient and knowledgeable and continues to answer any questions we have. Our puppy “Syd” adjusted so easily because of the environment Melissa created before Syd came home. We could not have had a better experience. Thank you Great North Australia Labradoodles for making this such an enjoyable experience.

  • My family and I made the decision to get our first family dog and we were extremely nervous. Through a contact, we found out about Great North Australian Labradoodles and could not be happier about our decision to choose them as our breeder. Melissa was incredibly kind and helpful, from walking us through the whole process ahead of time and constantly keeping us updated before/after our pup was born. Our pup is so well adjusted. She loves meeting new people, loves to snuggle and sleeps well at night. So happy that we chose Great North for our pup!

  • From the time we were first introduced to Melissa it was an absolute pleasure. Looking online for a future puppy was very stressful and unsatisfying. Through a personal connection we had the fortune of being introduced to Melissa. Her thoughtfulness and interest in our family and our needs went above and beyond anything we could have expected. Our puppy Leni, has a wonderful demeanour, came home happy and well adjusted and has brought so much joy into our lives. We continue to remain in touch with Melissa, and anyone who has the opportunity to get a puppy from her, is so lucky! Thank you Great North Australian Labradoodles.

  • We had been doing our puppy research for quite a while. We finally decided on a Labradoodle. At that point we knew we needed to get a beautiful puppy from Great North Australian Labradoodles. These puppies and mama (Bailey, whom was in their care during the whole process), were so lovingly cared for. The entire family works as a team to raise these healthy & well adjusted puppies. Their love is so crucial & very appreciated as a foundation for us families. The development of the puppies was communicated through pictures & videos during the entire journey, from birth to pick-up, wow how amazing is that?! Especially during Covid times, we were worried that we might miss out on the fun, but Melissa made sure we felt included in the whole process. Melissa’s communication, expertise, patience & genuine love of these furry family members is exceptional! Our boy Tommy (formerly Frosty) ran, tail wagging & happy crying when he saw Melissa in person at 4 months!!! Who needs more proof than that?! Thanks for bring us our Tommy! 🥰 Great North Labradoodles is truly an amazing find!
