Our Northwest Noir Noses puppies are arriving around the beginning of March. They will be ready to join you in mid April. What fabulous timing! Spring is ideal for welcoming a puppy into your life.
These mini-sized, non-shedding pups will mature to 20-30 pounds, making them the perfect fit for your home without taking up too much space or leaving hair everywhere. Great for families looking for a dog to bring everyone together. Your children will learn responsibility as they bond with a playful, intelligent companion, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
For singles, these puppies are the perfect companions to help you connect with others. Their striking looks in red, caramel, chocolate or ebony along with their friendly nature naturally draw attention, making it easy to meet new people and join a welcoming dog-loving community. They’re more than just a pet—they’re a bridge to new friendships and a more social life.
Whether you’re looking to strengthen family bonds or expand your social circle, a Northwest Noir Noses puppy is ready to enrich your life in meaningful ways.
KyAnne is our very own Spice girl! This girl has personality to spare and keeps us all smiling with her enthusiasm for life. KyAnne loves to chase a ball, swim and explore the acreage she lives on in Sooke.
KyAnne show us her softer side with the gentle affection she shows her human companion, Jennifer. KyAnne instinctively knows when this 13 year old needs a shoulder to lean on, a friendly ear or a bit of goofiness to cheer her up. KyAnne’s strong intuition help Jennifer those sometime turbulent teenage years.
You won’t find a more entertaining or understanding dog than KyAnne. Her puppies carry that gentle spirit, gorgeous looks and spicy bit of mischief to make their families wonder how they ever lived without one of KyAnne’s puppies.
Samurai moves seamlessly from family life to his “job” working with his Dad at an acupuncture clinic in Cowichan Valley. Samurai is the official greeter for the clinic where he enjoys putting everyone at ease as they run their fingers through his striking black and white “smooshes”.
Samurai adores his 5 year old human sister, Margot. He uses that famous Labradoodle intuition to allow Margot to be the boss and make all the decisions. He knows when to acquiesce to her demands, kiss her scrapes and cuts better and snuggle up beside her for a rest.
Samurai’s sweet nature and playful ways are evident in everything he does. Young, old, active or passive, Samurai knows just how and what to do for your life to be the best it can be.

What’s Included?
At Van Isle Doodles we have 4 sizes of puppies:
Mini 15 to 16″ tall and 18 to 22 lbs
Large Mini 16.25 to 17″ tall and 22 to 25 lbs
Medium 17″ to 19 inches tall and 25 to 40 lbs
Standard 19″+ tall and over 40 lbs
Australian labradoodles are content with a couple of nice brisk walks each day and some indoor play time.
If you enjoy hiking, biking swimming or other more vigorous exercise, your puppy will be happy to join you in these pursuits once they are over a year old. Large mini, medium and standard are your best choices if you lead an active life.
If you enjoy a quieter lifestyle, a mini, large mini or medium will be quite content with a few walks around the neighbourhood, longer walks on weekends and perhaps some swimming during the warmer months. Combine that with some good playtime in the house or backyard and you will have a happy labradoodle
ALDs have coats that grow and do require regular maintenance both at home and with a professional groomer.
Your ALD will need to go the groomer once every 8 weeks for a professional appointment. At home, a good brush and comb out every other day will help keep tangles at bay and maintain your ALD’s beautiful coat
Your Van Isle Doodle puppy will come to you eating a whole food diet. Primarily this will consist of freeze-dried food that you rehydrate and serve. A general rule of thumb is once your ALD is a year old, they will consume 2% of their body weight daily.
ALDs have 3 foundation breeds:
A multigenerational ALD is a dog who for 4 generations or more had only ALDs as parents. There must also be fewer than 6 Spaniels in the pedigree over the last 6 generations.
A labradoodle is a poodle and a lab. There is no spaniel in the mix. These dogs tend to be a bit larger as a result. You will hear many people refer to their ALD as a labradoodle as well as an Australian labradoodle just because the name is so long!
An Australian labradoodle has 3 foundation breeds; Poodle, Labrador Retriever and a splash of Spaniel. It’s that splash of Spaniel that brings the ability to produce a small dog. The Spaniel is also responsible for the Teddy Bear look that ALDS are so famous for.
An Aussie Doodle is an entirely different breed. This is a cross between an Australian Shepherd and a Poodle. These dogs are very high energy and require a lot of exercise.
Each dog is an individual as is each person. A particular ALD puppy with a specific individual may not trigger an allergic response. With another person, there may be a response.
ALDs have a single coat and little to no dander. This usually creates an environment without triggers for those who have mild allergic responses to most dogs.
For families with allergy concerns, we welcome you to attend one of our Open House days to spend time with our dogs to help assess whether you have a reaction.
We enjoy meeting our families who have an approved application on file. We want to show you who and where your puppy will be raised.
We have adult dogs who live with us you are welcome to spend time with. You will be able to see the different sizes as we have mini, large mini and medium dogs who live with us.
Puppies are not available to be visited as they are unvaccinated and vulnerable to disease. Once your puppy is born then you will be able to meet your litter in person when they are around 5 weeks of age.
Individual parents of litters do not live with us. We want all of our dogs to enjoy their own family for life. Each of our breeding dogs (other than the ones who live with us) live in their own family. You will meet the Mother dog for your litter at the Puppy Family Visit.
Our parent dogs undergo a series of tests before being admitted into our program. These tests include:
OFA and/or PH for hips and elbows
PPG ALD essential panel genetic disease testing
PPG DNA Profile testing
PPG trait testing
CAER eye testing
Temperament assessment
Conformation assessment
Browse through the Find Your Puppy page and look for a litter that meats your requirements. You can filter by size, birthdate or parents to narrow in on the best litter for you. If you don’t have any preferences you can simply fill out the generic Application Form.
After the family visit we have a “Homework” assignment that includes a chance for you to let us know if you have additional preferences.
We take all of your requests into consideration when we begin our matching process.
Claire, Taylor and Renald spend every day with the puppies from birth. They each do an assessment of the puppies around 7 weeks. Then we take those assessments and your homework to make the perfect match between you and your puppy.
It doesn’t matter if you are first or last on the reservation list, the matching is done based on the best fit between the puppy’s personality and your lifestyle. We have never had one of our ALD puppies refused or returned because they were not the best fit for a family.
