OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU is to provide you with the healthiest, happiest most adjusted labradoodle possible. We only breed multi-generation Australian Labradoodles that have been tested for hips, elbows and eyes for eye certification.
The health and well-being is of utmost priority here at Sequoia Haven Labradoodles. We believe first of all that kenneled dogs and dogs left outdoors for long periods of times cannot be well rounded, socialized, and healthy animals. Our dogs are an integral part of our lives and we would not have it any other way. That is why our goal is to keep our breeding program small and intimate; so as to properly care and attend to their daily needs. Dogs are not as needy as human children; they can stay home alone for short periods of time, can sleep alone, can go outdoors to potty of course, but ultimately, they are part of the family and should be treated as such.

Just as important it is for our children to eat a healthy and well-rounded diet, our dogs must as well. We believe an organic, grain-free diet is best for our dogs. We notice a very big difference in their energy levels, occurrence of sickness and disease, coat appearance, and their stool consistency when their diets are not as nutrient dense as they should be.
Our first choice for our dogs’ diet is homemade dog food using only wholesome, organic, raw grass fed beef, bone meal, wild salmon and grain free ingredients. However, we know this isn’t always feasible for the average pet owner so we have compiled a list of links on our sidebar for your exploration. We currently use Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover’s Soul canned food when we are unable to mix our own organic recipes.
