Puppies raised in full daylight, on the farm.
At La Ferme Blanche, our litters of Australian Labradoodles and Bernedoodles grow up outdoors, between the garden and the barn — never in a kennel run. The result: calm, curious puppies who already feel at ease in the world when they arrive at your door.
A small farm, on purpose.
We deliberately limit how many litters we raise each year. It isn't a constraint — it's the only way to know every puppy individually, to handle each one daily, and to know, when it's time to place them, which family they truly belong with.
Our breeding females live with us year-round, in the house and in the fields. They aren't "production females" — they're our dogs, who have two or three litters in a lifetime and then retire right here, on the farm.

Three commitments, for every puppy.
They apply to every litter we raise, without exception and without an upcharge.
Health-tested before breeding
Our breeding dogs complete the recommended screenings — hips, elbows, eyes and heart — before any litter. You receive the certificates, not just a summary.
Socialized outdoors
Daily handling from the first week, gradual exposure to farm sounds, surfaces, children and other animals. A calm puppy doesn't happen by accident.
Lifelong support
We stay reachable long after you leave — first nights, house-training, curly-coat grooming, feeding. And if you're ever unable to keep your dog, they come back to us. Always.
Australian Labradoodle and Bernedoodle.
Two hybrid breeds chosen for their steady temperament, their intelligence and their low-shedding coats — a real advantage for families sensitive to dog hair. We don't chase trends: we've raised these two lines from the start, and we know them well.
The Australian Labradoodle brings joyful energy and easy trainability; the Bernedoodle brings the calm patience of the Bernese Mountain Dog. Two different temperaments, one shared goal: a dog who settles gently into family life.
From your first question to going home.
You write to us
Tell us about your household: children, other pets, living situation, experience with dogs. We reply within one to two days, honestly — sometimes to tell you a larger puppy isn't the right fit yet.
We meet at the farm
Visits by appointment, even before a litter is born. You meet the parents and see where the puppies will grow up. A breeder who won't let you visit is telling you something.
Reservation and matching
A $500 deposit secures your place on the litter. Puppy-to-family matching happens around week six, based on observed temperament — not arrival order or a colour picked from a photo.
Going home at eight weeks
Your puppy leaves vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped and examined by our veterinarian, with a health record, a few days of their usual food, and a blanket that smells like the litter.
A litter is expected this fall.
Our puppies are almost always spoken for before birth. If you're considering an Australian Labradoodle or a Bernedoodle this year, now is the time to write to us — even if you're not fully certain yet.
