Manor Lake Australian Labradoodles was in attendance at the Seattle Junior Achievement Auction this last week – with one of our puppies! One of our favorite things is helping good causes and Junior Achievement certainly fits. A sweet Manor Lake chocolate puppy was up for auction and was won to the perfect family for a new puppy. It was great to help bring happiness to a new family and support for a great cause!

Kim and Erin from Manor Lake Australian Labradoodles were able to spend a weekend in beautiful Santa Monica for the annual Australian Labradoodle Association of America (ALAA) Conference. We were there to meet and visit with other Australian Labradoodle breeders, learn from a guest speaker and of course help with the conference as Kim holds the Vice President position at ALAA.

It was great to see and meet so many people that had the same love for the Australian Labradoodle as we do! Pat Hasting, an AKC judge and professional dog handler from DogFolk Enterprises, was our guest speaker who gave an information packed presentation on dog conformation. There was so much to hear and be refreshed on, it was awesome to see many examples and hear a professional opinion on conformation.

We had a great time and are already looking forward to attending next year!

Hi Kim and Mollie, it is just about a year now since I first contacted you about Stella. I cant thank you enough.  She is doing really well and is an absolute joy. I attached two photos. She sends a big hug to both of you.

Thank you for everything.
