I first met a Labradoodle over 30 years ago. At the time I was in England and working for The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association. During that brief encounter I had no idea that one day I would be settling in Australia, marrying a wonderful Australian woman and breeding Australian Labradoodles. But that’s how it turned out.

Our journey to Labradoodles has its roots in our passion for good health and continuing fitness. My wife Thalia has several allergies including an allergy to cat fur and so having Labradoodles around the place is ideal for her, as they have wool coats and do not shed hair like other dogs.

In April 2007 we sold our successful Women’s Gym and Fitness Centre to concentrate on our other interests but we continue to live our philosophy of good eating, regular exercise and a healthy balance between work time and play time. And this philosophy fits so easily with owning Labradoodles.

When caring for our dogs we strongly support the “Biologically Appropriate Raw Food Diet” as it is well researched and closely mirrors our own diet of healthy eating which includes an abundance of raw fruits and raw vegetables. As you will see from the links on this website we also support and market a whole food nutritional product made entirely from raw fruits and vegetables called Juice Plus - just follow the links to www.juiceplusgoodhealth.com.au

At the Gym and Fitness Centre we encouraged all the staff and clients to take Juice Plus as the benefits are so plentiful. They include, strengthening your immune system and reducing the likelihood of colds and flu, improving your sense of wellbeing and general mental health, speeding the recovery time and improving the recovery process from illnesses and elective surgery, and helping women’s and baby’s health during pregnancy. Each of these benefits and so many more come about through improving your nutrition, so please take the time to follow the lintHALIAks. We don’t know where we’d be without our healthy habit of taking two fruit and two vegetable capsules each day, and we’d like you and your family to share in that ongoing sense of wellbeing.

Our interests in healthy lifestyles extends to complementary medicines and another of our passions is healing using natural products and natures methods.

We love our dogs and we hope that you will too. Medical research has shown that owning a dog can lengthen your life by reducing your blood pressure, increasing the efficiency of your cardiovascular system, (but you have to take your dog for a walk), improve your mental health, reduce stress, reduce isolation and generally improve the quality of your life.

Given who we are, we were just ripe to be picked by a Labradoodle.
