About Willows Australian Labradoodles
Where health, happiness and hearts come together
At Willows Australian Labradoodles, our purpose has always been clear. We raise exceptional, healthy, and emotionally balanced dogs who bring comfort, joy and companionship to their families.
We specialise exclusively in genuine multigenerational Australian Labradoodles, bred with care, knowledge and heart.
Willows was founded by Shannon and Ross and has grown into one of the most respected names in Australian Labradoodles in the UK. Shannon has served on the Board of Directors for two major Australian Labradoodle associations, helping to raise standards, improve welfare, and guide the future of the breed.
We are proud to be the first breeder in the UK to introduce a 24-hour live Puppy Cam, giving families the chance to watch their puppies grow and develop in real time. It was a first for our country, and any breeder you see using a Puppy Cam today has been directly inspired by what began here at Willows. Our goal was simple: to bring total transparency to the way puppies are raised and to help families feel part of their journey from the very beginning.
Why Our Lines Are Different
Not all Labradoodles are the same.
True Australian Labradoodles are the result of many generations of thoughtful, ethical breeding focused on health, temperament and purpose.
At Willows, we work from proven therapy and service lines, using only breeding dogs that have passed extensive health testing for hips, elbows, eyes and DNA. We protect the integrity of this breed and never compromise on welfare or standards.
We also believe that you cannot have healthy puppies without healthy, happy parents. Our breeding dogs live normal, fulfilled lives in loving homes, not kennels. They are family dogs first, and that balance shows in every puppy they produce.
Raised The Willows Way
Every Willows puppy is born into warmth, safety and calm.
We use structured, science-based methods from the very beginning, including early neurological stimulation and controlled socialisation. These experiences build confidence, emotional stability and adaptability.
Our puppies are raised in real homes, surrounded by everyday life and the sounds, textures and experiences that shape well-rounded companions. Through our Puppy Cam, families can share in these early milestones and see the love and care that goes into every moment.
Health & Integrity
Health is the foundation of everything we do.
Each of our breeding dogs is fully tested to internationally recognised standards, and any dog that does not meet those standards is retired without exception.
We share all our results openly because transparency builds trust. When you choose a Willows puppy, you are choosing the result of years of experience, ethical breeding and genuine dedication to the wellbeing of every dog in our care.

A Family Behind Every Dog
At Willows Australian Labradoodles, our purpose has always been clear. We raise exceptional, healthy, and emotionally balanced dogs who bring comfort, joy and companionship to their families. A Family Behind Every Dog
Our four children play a special part in raising each litter, helping puppies learn to trust and enjoy people of all ages. We also work with a small number of guardian families who provide the same love and stability to our breeding dogs.
Every Willows dog grows up surrounded by warmth, routine and affection. This is why our puppies are known for their kind, steady temperaments and their ability to bond so naturally with people.
We Want Change
We believe it is time for change in the dog world. Too often people spend more time researching a washing machine than they do choosing a breeder. Puppies deserve better than that.
Families should expect more from breeders and should look for people who truly understand what they are doing. A responsible breeder puts the dog’s welfare above everything else and never cuts corners.
At Willows, we will always speak up for what is right. We are proud to lead by example and to help raise expectations for what ethical breeding can look like when it is done with knowledge, compassion and integrity.
