Raising Authentic Australian Labradoodle Puppies! - Join Our Family!
Welcome to Sugar Cookie! We are an Australian Labradoodle breeder located in mid-Michigan, and its our pleasure to offer you a beautiful, multi-generational, low-to-no shedding puppy from lines originating in the Australian guide dog program over 30 years ago! Our pups are bred for outstanding temperament and good health, and born and raised in our home (we are not a kennel). They are an ideal family companion, often well suited as therapy and service dogs, and can be found completing families across the United States including Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Massachusetts Maryland, the Carolinas, New Mexico and more!
All of our parent dogs are registered and 5+ generation pedigrees verified by the Australian Labradoodle Association of America (ALAA) and Worldwide Australian Labradoodle Association (WALA). All parent dogs are extensively tested prior to breeding through the Orthopedic Foundation of America(OFA) and Paw Print Genetics(PPG). We are honored to be recognized for maintaining top levels of health testing annually of our sires and dams through the highly coveted Platinum Paw by ALAA and 8 Star by WALA. These recognitions are earned by breeders who exceed basic testing requirements, increasing the likelihood that your puppy will be free of the most common serious diseases for many years to come!
Reserving a Puppy is as easy as 1-2-3!
We invite you to join our Master Reservation List! First step is to request a Puppy Matching Application (maria@sugarcookielabradoodles) and find a time to talk. It's important for us to get to know a bit about your family's lifestyle to help ensure you bring home a puppy that fits in perfectly!
Phoebe& Tux's 7 gorgeous puppies arrived on April 28th and all have joined their new families! We will be repeating this pairing in 2025 and are accepting up to 6 Reservations! Puppies will have wonderful temperaments, beautiful hypoallergenic wavy fleece coats, and mature in the 20-30lb(mini)range.

Step 1: Call/email Maria with questions 517-712-8248 or maria@sugarcookielabradoodles.com
Step 2: Request a Puppy Matching application. This helps us know the important traits you are looking for!
Step 3: A $300 non-refundable deposit holds a spot for a puppy in a 2025 litter! 8-week old puppies are $3,400.00 regardless of gender, size, color, and markings, and you get to choose your puppy at 7 weeks! Included are a lovely 'Go Home' bag of goodies and 2 year health warranty! Rarely, if an older trained puppy is available the adoption fee is slightly more and reflects additional vaccination(s) and ongoing training!
Puppy Selection - How We Do It!
We want you to pick the best puppy to meet your family's unique needs and lifestyle, based on temperament and energy level. A non-refundable good faith deposit places you on our Master Puppy Reservation List and assures that a beautiful Sugar Cookie pup will be joining your family! Within a couple days after a litter arrives families are contacted in the order their deposit was placed to confirm that this is the litter they would like to have their puppy from. If for whatever reason the timing is not right or you are interested in a next litter from a different pairing, you may choose to remain (and likely move up) on the Master List for the next litter. As breeder we reserve the right to hold back any puppy from a litter prior to family selections.
We will send you periodic email updates about milestones and important dates and post lots of pictures on social media, so you can follow all the pups in a litter as they grow and develop!
'Meet n' Greets' - You will have the opportunity to visit with the entire litter at 5 1/2- 6 1/2 weeks!
'Puppy Selections' - You will pick your puppy at 7 weeks following Volhard Puppy Aptitude Testing!
'Gotcha Day' - at 8 weeks! Plan to pick your puppy up at our home. We do not ship our puppies in cargo but if you or a 'flight nanny' would like to fly home with your puppy safely in-cabin, a driver can meet you at a Michigan airport for an additional charge. Keep in mind if your puppy is flying overseas to its new home you will not only need to know your airline's rules but likely make arrangements for your puppy's care for a couple months until it is able to fly. With most overseas flights a puppy must be at least 16 weeks and have had its rabies vaccine and a USDA health certificate. Unfortunately we cannot keep pups beyond 9 weeks.
