Annabelle Doodles of New England
ADNE LABRADOODLES
In loving memory of
Annabelle Potts
We are a boutique breeder of large
Mini & Small Medium Labradoodles in
Southern Maine offering
limited litters per year
By design and intention, we are a small, but exclusive, breeding program. You will rarely find us raising several litters at once. We breed ONLY companion doodles.
Please research other breeders for service or therapy Labradoodles.
Our strong focus on customer service requires visits to our home for puppy socialization with the litter you are purchasing a pup from - a benefit for you and the puppies!
Our goal is to always improve on this hybrid through
education, research and health testing.
​
ADNE REQUIRES CHILDREN TO BE
SIX YEARS OLD+
to be considered for a puppy at the
suggestion of our trainer.
Current News!

We are hopeful for a litter sometime early summer.
This will be a litter of pups in the 20 to 32 lb. range. Blacks with white spotting is expected in both solid and parti patterns.

What does a WAIT LIST mean?
In almost every litter I've had someone has to cancel due to life issues – timing, sickness, moving, etc.
If you sent in an application and it is in the Wait List file, you are the people I contact FIRST. I contact you based on if there is a ‘puppy match’ per your application.
There is no obligation.
APPLICATIONS ARE ALWAYS WELCOMED FOR A FUTURE LITTER.
ALWAYS BEST TO CONTACT ME DIRECTLY THROUGH EMAIL:
​
Be good to yourselves and others
and always think positively.
Nothing like a furry companion
to snuggle with in any season!!

The pup below is a cute example
of a black pup produced at
ANNABELLE DOODLES of
New England!
​
Diesel, a delightful puppy, now a stud at ADNE, is a Black Abstract and has a wavy, non shedding coat of waves.
​
-
​ADNE's Skip To My 'Lucie' should go into her breeding cycle this spring and is expected to be mated to EITHER Emmett Piccolo (above), who is retired, OR Diesel OR Duckie. All are Australian Labradoodles who are wonderfully friendly, non shedding and joyful companions to their owners. You can read about them all under the Breeder tab.
-
Lucie has a non shedding coat of soft, wavy fleece that has black and charcoal shading - very striking with her dashes of white!
-
Emmett has gorgeous silky black curls, Diesel has soft wavy black fleece with a bit of white on his chest and Duckie has soft curls in a tri colored Phantom patterned coat - pictured below. What a DILEMMA!
-
Each of these boys has produced wonderfully friendly and healthy pups.
-
At this time Lucie's application file is full, but since I do not take deposits with applications, potential customers are free to continue to search for their pup to get one sooner if they wish. Finding the most perfect pup for you is what is most important here at ADNE! If it is from another program - I say 'Congratulations'!! :+)
MY PHILOSOPHY:
​
Please note - I am a small, hobby breeder who has roughly two litters a year. If you are in a hurry for a pup, you need to seek a larger breeding facility that has multiple litters at the same time. Also you may notice I am a believer in DNA diversity and open stud books, so do not have the AKC mentality of 'cloning' a litter. My reason to go back into breeding (I bred AKC Golden Retrievers decades ago) was to work with and continue to develop a new breed candidate for health and temperament with DNA diversity which is why I embrace this wonderful hybrid. Feel free to check out my testing protocol on each Australian Labradoodle I use for the ADNE breeding program under the 'Breeders' tab.
​
I also love and promote black Australian Labradoodles! Many pup buyers prefer any other color but black. I suggest you find a breeder that chooses a pairing that will avoid this color. My preference is a litter producing multiple colors/patterns and working with clients that are flexible on both color and gender. Personality and temperament will ALWAYS trump color or gender when I am assigning pups to families.
