Prepare to welcome adorable compact Labradoodle puppies, expected this December and ready to join your home in February! These petite Labradoodles, anticipated to mature to an ideal weight of 18 – 20 lbs, will feature shades of chocolate and caramel, with some expected to have vanilla swirls.
We’ve paired Posy and Sumac, two Labradoodles cherished for their sweet and sociable dispositions. The result? Puppies sure to captivate your heart and inject joy and optimism into your life. Their irresistible charm will attract people, expanding your social circle and fostering opportunities for new friendships.
Your new companion will be a quick learner, eager to please, and exhibit good behaviour at home. Whether you prefer a cosy day by the fire, a beach outing, or a mountain hike, they’ll be your dedicated sidekick. These puppies are adaptable, making them easy to live with. The fact they don’t shed is a bonus! Soft, silky coats you won’t be able to resist stroking and that lowers your blood pressure!
Their compact size is an added advantage! They won’t consume too much space in your travel trailer or bed, making them perfect for snuggles and kisses. With their charming looks, you’ll fall in love with them daily!
Posy is a dog you can’t resist touching. Her beautiful caramel tuxedo coat and human-like eyes make her irresistible. Gentle, petite, and always upbeat, Posy loves to share her affection with everyone she meets.
She lives in a 3 generational home. Her gentle, giving nature shines when she spends time with Grandma. Posy uses her intuition to understand when Grandma wants to go for a gentle walk or just needs Posy nearby.
When Posy is with her Guardian Mom, she loves to spend time at the beach, hike in the Courtenay area, and help Mom relax at the end of the day.
When Posy spends time with her youngest guardian, she shows her stamina and can run like the wind on their adventures together.
Posy passes on all these qualities to her puppies. This makes them easy to teach, strong candidates for a support dog role, and ideal as lifetime companions. Beautiful inside and out—that’s Posy!
Sumac is our little dynamo. He packs a big punch in terms of personality in his petite Labradoodle frame. Weighing in at 20 pounds, Sumac uses his incredible good looks and unlimited charm to make everyone he meets fall head-over-heels in love with him.
Sumac’s Guardians tell us how he brings them multiple smiles daily with his gentle ways with his brother Fisher. Sumac also loves to charm by bringing toys to his humans and giving them endless kisses and love.
Sumac lives in Sidney with his Guardian family and enjoys all the ohs and awes he garners from everyone he meets. He is a magnet for making new friends!
Sumac has a gentle confidence that we can see in the sweet way he plays with his brother and his gentle mannerisms around young children.
Sumac’s puppies will share his well-balanced temperament and gorgeous good looks.

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.
