One of the unique features of Australian Labradoodles is the wide variety of coat colors and patterns.
While Labradoodle colours are interesting, we maintain that you are buying a living creature and not a coat colour. It is essential to retain the appearance of an Australian Labradoodle within the breed standard, but we feel charging for colour is not a fair practice. Van Isle Doodles looks for families whose focus is on adding a labradoodle puppy as a family member to their home.
This is Laynee, a dark red Labradoodle with black leathers. Depending on the intensity of the pigment, a red dog may appear to be a deep red color all the way to a light brown color.
Cream labradoodles range from almost white through to latte depending on the intensity of the pigment.
This is our Bruno Mars who is a light cream color with black leathers.
Black Labradoodles range from jet black to silver.
This is Cinder Ella an example of a jet black Labradoodle.
Chocolate Australian Labradoodles range from a milk chocolate color when pigment is diluted to deep, dark chocolate when pigment is intensified.
Oceana (middle) is a dark chocolate Labradoodle with brown leathers.
Café Labradoodles are born milk chocolate and their color changes over 2 years to a lavender or parchment from dilution of pigment. Tatianna is a café with diluted pigment which is perceived as lavender and parchment in color.
Caramel ranges from a creamy color to a darker red. The brown leathers make the dog caramel rather than red.
Here are some examples of our caramel dogs.
Abstract/mis-marked Labradoodles have a base coat color and the abstract/mis-marks are always white in color. These markings range from one small bit of white to up to 49% of the body being white.
A parti labradoodle is at least 50% white and 50% another solid color. Parti Labradoodless can come in any color.
This is our caramel and white parti girl, Bernadette.
A phantom is a solid color with tan points. The markings are similar to those found on Yorkies, Rottweilers and Dobermans.
Tan points for the phantom pattern are pips above the eyes, along the side of the jaw, a band across the chest, run halfway up all four legs, on the vent and sometimes on the underside of the tail.
Phantoms may be either black Labradoodles or Chocolate Labradoodles.
Dexter is a chocolate phantom Labradoodle.
A tri colored Labradoodle is a phantom plus white. A tri Labradoodle may be black or chocolate.
This is Tawnee who is a black tri.
A sable Labradoodle has each single hair in their coat banded by color. Each strand of hair has two colors. The tip of the strand will be either black or brown and the color at the root may be red, tan or apricot.
Because the top inch or so of the strands of hair are either black or chocolate, at birth a sable Labradoodle will appear to be a black or chocolate dog.
Once the strands start to grow out, the change color becomes visible. The amount of time it takes to see the second color varies from birth through to about six weeks of age.
Since Labradoodles do not shed, at least as little as any dog is capable of not shedding, they do not generally grow new strands of hair. Once a sable Labradoodle has been groomed, the dark chocolate or black tips are lost and the dog then becomes red or tan in color.
This is Ripple our chocolate sable parti girl.
Brindle is a pattern of alternating “tiger” like stripes of dark and light colors. Brindle Labradoodles are not common.
This puppy is a brindle Labradoodle. If you look at his feet, you will notice the stiped pattern of his color.
