Our Story

Founded in a lifelong love of dogs and fostered by wonderful experiences with miniature Australian labradoodles, the Hogan family launched Southern Labradoodles in the Spring of 2017. Above all else, the program is inspired by a desire to foster joyful relationships with kind, loyal, smart Australian Labradoodles.

At the heart of Southern Labradoodles is family and joy. So, as a breeding program, Southern Labradoodles is informed by the utmost commitment to ethical breeding practices. Southern Labradoodle breeding dogs are treated with the respect and love of family members - they are an integral part of family life, and females are bred only two to three times before being retired. All puppies are socialized and cared for as family members until eight weeks of age, when they are ready to join their forever family. 

As a boutique program, we are able to dedicate an enormous amount of time and care to our pack - not only during the breeding process, but also the rearing and placement process. We have designed an application that empowers our program to find the best possible homes.

Further, from birth, Southern Labradoodles puppies are socialized in a loving home environment according to an extensive socialization program designed by our certified dog trainer. In addition to our extensive socialization program, our puppies work with our certified dog trainer twice a week starting at three weeks of age, to ensure that they are ready to join their forever family as happy, relaxed dogs. 

We look forward to sharing our joy with you. 

With love,

The Southern Labradoodle Family
