About Us.
We are a family breeder located in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. We are situated on a gorgeous 93-acre farm nestled on the east side of the city.
With my background in Sciences and Nursing, and my partner Darren, who is a dentist in Kingston, we both have an insatiable love of dogs and all animals.
Our journey in breeding doodles spans over 10 years, and since 2019, we have dedicated ourselves to the remarkable Australian Labradoodle. It was our first experience with this breed that solidified our passion for breeding them exclusively.
Teddybear Labradoodles is a fully accredited breeder with the Worldwide Australian Labradoodle Association (WALA). We are truly honoured to be a part of the development of this outstanding breed!
our home.
From day one, the puppies are a part of the family and are brought up in the comfort of our cozy home.
We currently have our handsome Benji and Emma living with us in our family home. For the remaining breeding dogs, we use guardian homes. We believe that no dog should ever have to live in a kennel. It is important to us that all of our dogs have a special family of their own to live with and enjoy all that life has to offer!
The primary caregivers of our Mommas and Pups are Teddy (me) and my fantastic husband, Darren. We also have five lovely kiddos - Ava, Ethan, and Ryan, and our twins- Izzy & Smith, who are an integral part of puppy socialization. The fabulous Veterinary team at St Lawrence Veterinary Services in Kingston supports us. We also utilize the veterinary specialists at Cedarview Animal Hospital, Vets on Main and Bright Light Vet in Ottawa for reproductive and health testing, and veterinary care.
Our puppies are born in their own puppy nursery adjacent to our living room, in a warm, clean, and dog-friendly environment. Once the pups are around six weeks old, we start socializing them by providing playtime that exposes them to our other dogs and immerses them in our family life.
Our Passion
We are totally dog-obsessed! Dogs have always been a lifelong passion of ours. Growing up in households where dogs were a prominent part of our families certainly set the stage for our intense love of dogs. For us, "a house is not a home without a dog". Over the years, we have had many breeds of dogs as pets, but it wasn't until we found the Australian Labradoodle that we truly fell head over heels in love!
My breeding experience extends beyond dogs, including Oldenburg horses, American Mini Pigs and Alpacas, amongst others (you may see some pics of those critters floating around!)
I am sometimes criticized for my perfectionistic tendencies. In terms of breeding, I feel this is a tremendous asset!
I always want the best-of-the-best!
Philosophy & Breeding Priorities
To put it simply, we only want to produce pups we would want in our family and home! Hence, we breed for temperament, health, and conformation - in that order.
