After much research contacting other breeders, I have to say that none of the other breeders begin to compare with Ridgeline Labradoodles! The expertise, personal contact, kindness, reassurance, suggestions, information, etc. far exceeds that of any other breeder I have been in touch with. Buddy is doing great! We started training classes, of course he already has me trained regarding a few things! Hope all goes well! Donovan Skalicky Grants Pass, OR
We absolutely love Sunday! She is precious in every way! And so beautiful! She's been doing well with potty training and is sleeping through the night in her crate. At only nine weeks-old she already loves to walk on the leash, knows "sit", "down", and is working on "stay". She loves to help water the flower pots and is so gentle and relaxed. During our walk we noticed she wouldn't walk unless every family member was in front of her. If one of us lagged behind she'd wait until that person caught up then start walking again. We're enjoying Sunday so much and just can't get enough of her! Hope you are doing well!

We can't thank you enough for the wonderful job you do with the beautiful puppies you are raising. Reading all the puppy books made us realize how important a puppy's care is from the very beginning and we're so grateful we found you. After taking a fun trip to visit the litter, we were even more impressed with the way the puppies are incorporated into your family, how happy and well socialized they are, and especially your kindness, knowledge, and guidance in helping us choose our little Indiana (Indy). He's a wonderful dog and we love him! At 8 1/2 weeks old he's already learned to sit, come, lay down, and walk on a leash. People who meet him can't believe it (neither can we). Since his first night here he's slept all night in his crate without crying. He loves to run, play, and drag sticks (about 4 times as long as he is) through the yard. He loves to be by our side and everywhere we take him people think he's beautiful. We've been thrilled to send links for your website to all who ask where we got him. We're even signed up for obedience classes, mostly for us, as Indy seems to just be waiting for us to figure out how to let him know what we want him to do. We hope anyone lucky enough to have one our your puppies join their family, will be as blessed as we are! All our best, Karen and Mike Dolen Redmond, WA
Bubba is the sweetest and smartest puppy! We all adore him!! It's all up to me now to keep him that way and I'm reading a book to help me train him. He's been a joy. He sleeps through the night beautifully with no whining at all. We are so grateful for your help and support through it all.
Thank you for everything! Barbara Love West Palm Beach, FL
Delaine,
I am truly in love with this puppy. I have not had such an overwhelming love for someone since the birth of my children. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you being such a wonderful breeder and raising such beautiful dogs. I talked to maybe 30 plus breeders and you were one of the first I spoke with - I never felt as "at home" with any others as I did with you. We so appreciate the gift of this new family member. Addie is a treasure to us all!

Darwin has been amazing. He is so smart, we have trained him to tidy up his toys by placing them in a basket once he is done with them! He is such a sweetheart. He really loves cuddling and being close to us. We get so many compliments about his red color. I routinely have people stop me on the sidewalk to ask about Darwin, but I also often have cars stop by the side of the road to ask me about him! He really is a far better dog than we could ever have imagined! I know I haven't met all the puppies to ever come out of your breeding program, but I am confident nevertheless, that Darwin is the best dog ever!
Hope all is well with you! Karen and Matt Vancouver, B.C.
We are enjoying life with our sweet Kona who is now three years old. He is so adorable! The staff at the veterinarian office just go nuts over him. He is the sweetest dog and we love him to pieces. Kona draws quite a bit of attention just about everywhere we go, as I'm sure you hear about with many of the Ridgeline beauties. We have told quite a few people about you.
All the best, Erika Liska Seattle, WA
I thought I'd send you a quick update to let you know Stryker is doing great. He is a warm and caring dog, very, very, affectionate and he loves to be with the pack (our family). We often get stopped while walking him as people adore his deep red color. Thanks again for sending us a wonderful dog!

Hi Delaine,
We absolutely adore and love our Sadie!! She sleeps through the night, follows us everywhere, and is content to be with us wherever we are. We've taken her on walks around the house and she loves exploring her new world. She makes us laugh all the time with her antics! Her personality is really blooming! She is the center of our universe and we hers. A good match indeed! We're so glad we found you and her! We'll keep you updated on our dear Sadie. She sends her love to you as well.
Best, Woody, Susan & Sadie Granite Falls, WA
Hi Delaine,
I just wanted to thank you again for my sweet and perfect little Layla! She is doing fabulous and is loved more than anything! She has so much personality! She is fun and doing well in puppy classes. Here is a Christmas photo of her. Hope all is well with you, your family, and your doodles!
Take Care! Tina Duvall, WA
Luna has continued to be a miraculous addition to our family. She’s an ideal dog in every way…we just love her. As you know, I was fairly concerned about adding a dog to our busy lifestyle. Thankfully it has proven to be only positive. Thanks for the conversations you had with me initially and for keeping her an extra week…it really made a difference.
The Gregg Family Seattle, WA
I just had to drop you a note and tell you how in love we are with our Lewis boy. He is such a blessing to our family and he has truly filled the void that was there. He has such a sweet and gentle soul. Not to mention he is a handsome devil. No more shedding, it must have been some of his puppy fur. He now has a best friend in a little Bichon/Maltese named Charlie. Lewis lays down on the ground and he is so gentle and patient with the little guy. It's priceless. Here's a picture of Lewis lying in Charlie's little bed at my office. We would love to get a second dog from you. I've never felt so at ease with someone making such a huge choice for us. I feel like Lewis is the dog God meant for us to have.
Thank you for all you do! Lindsay and Kyle Silverdale, WA
We recently referred you to our friends. They absolutely LOVE Lily, they can’t get enough of her. Lily is 3 years old now and 35lbs. When she has short hair she’s a light copper color, but when it grows out she is darker. Lily is an EXTREMELY smart dog, very trainable, but also very sensitive; she punishes herself quite often! Overall a great dog though, the best I’ve ever had by far.
Nate and Stephanie Seattle, WA
I just wanted to send a recent picture of our guy Rusty who turns two years old soon. He is the best! What joy he has brought to our family. Please let us know when you are expecting more puppies because we would love to welcome another sibling into the mix. Rusty is ready and so are we!
Mercedes Washington, D.C.
Milo continues to be a joy. He’s such a loving puppy. He learns quickly and is becoming more eager to meet new people. He has such a fun personality. We are learning what treats and toys he likes. We will also start formal training soon, but he already knows many words and most importantly.. potty training has come very easily, unless it’s raining outside, then he needs just a little encouragement!!
The Cozarts Mike, Jen, Caitlyn, Emma Puyallup, WA
Our family absolutely loves Clover! She is such a great companion and she goes with me or is by my side every day. Wherever we go people insist on touching her and letting me know she is the cutest Labradoodle they have ever seen. Clover has a wonderful temperament and I am very happy with her. I have to say she does not walk very often because everyone wants to hold her. I have passed your contact information on to several people. We spent a lot of time at our beach cabin this summer and I thought you would enjoy this picture.
Heidi Dukich North Bend, WA
Our Harley is the smartest and the sweetest dog I've ever known. He loves to retrieve balls and stuffed toys, to hike with me on the wooded mountain behind us, to cuddle in my lap, to nap beside me. He mixes joyful bounds with his running, reminding me over and over again that life should be met with enthusiasm and lived in the moment. Ron and I can't thank you enough for the gift that is Harley. I asked for happy, playful, and loving, and Harley is EXACTLY that. We so very much love this dog, and I wanted you to know.
With infinite gratitude, Robin and Ron Helm Sandpoint, ID
He is such a joy! So smart and fun loving! Thank you for breeding such a wonderful pup. I cannot tell you how many times I have thanked God for Watson.
Sue and Mark Kenmore, WA
Hi Delaine,
I just wanted to send you an updated picture of our little Ozzy. He is almost two years-old now and he is an absolutely wonderful dog! We love him dearly and he fits in perfectly with our family. He loves to snuggle and he is very loving. We couldn't be happier! We are proud to tell everyone he is from Ridgeline Labradoodles. I can't say enough how much we love him. My husband gets jealous and says I pay more attention to Ozzy than him - ha ha! If we ever decide to add another dog we will be calling you!!
Take care, Amanda Fox Island, WA
We are having so much fun with Baxter. He really is a good boy. He has a Labradoodle best friend that lives across the street named Blaze, and they play outside for 2 - 3 hours a day rain or shine! They have so much fun together! Baxter learned to swim and loves Lake Washington! I can tell he'll be in the water all summer long. He is super affectionate too. He loves to be cuddled and held. Baxter has really turned out to be the perfect family dog.
The Bishop Family Medina, WA
Bella is such a great dog! She is like a local celebrity because every time I take her anywhere people always comment on how gorgeous she is and how friendly and loving she is. She is so smart and so good with the kids! All I can say is it was love at first sight. I am definitely singing your praises! My husband (the one who was most hesitant about getting a dog) won't let us get a minute with her! The groomer said she was the best behaved puppy she ever groomed. We got Bella from you two years ago and now my aunt just reserved a puppy with you. I just wanted to tell you how excited we are for her and I'm so thankful that she is getting her Labradoodle from someone as wonderful as you. I've always told her if she ever got another dog she had to go through you without a doubt. We love Bella so much she's such a good dog and I'm sure the one that my aunt gets will be just as amazing. I just wanted to share a picture of Bella so you could see how she looks at two years old. She is perfect!
Thanks again, Jessica O'Neill Dobbs Ferry, NY
Tigger is getting to be a big boy! He's very spoiled and goes with me everywhere. We finished our first obedience class, he was definitely the class clown. He's a very smart boy and makes everyone smile. His coat is so soft and dark red, people can't believe he doesn't shed. He's such a character! He loves to run and he has huge paws. I get stopped many times a day and asked what breed he is. People tell me he looks like a big stuffed animal. I have big plans for him. I want to share him with people, maybe train him to be a therapy dog. I think he could do so much for people! The Vickers Family Vancouver, B.C. Canada
I just wanted to send you an update on one year old Bailey. He has grown into such a great dog. He is the most affectionate dog I have ever owned, such a great personality, very smart, and so handsome. He gets so much attention wherever we go.
Thank you for breeding such great dogs!! Jessica Seattle, WA
Hi Delaine,
We absolutely love our Sophie! She is perfect for us and has been such a wonderful addition to our family. And we have you to thank for that! From the very start, you were helpful in answering all our questions, as well as supportive in our meeting the pups. What a great experience and your personal touches were so appreciated. You provided us with a healthy, well-adjusted, cared for puppy! Sophie is as sweet as ever, training well, and taking it all in stride so far. We couldn't be more pleased that our journey has started off in such a positive way!
Thanks so much, The Butler Family Issaquah, WA
Marley is absolutely amazing! He loves to cuddle and is super sweet. We love him so much and are so happy to have him in our lives! Todd and Suzy Goldman Seattle, WA
Cap'n Jack continues to captivate people with his good looks. On most walks people stop us to say he is the cutest dog they have ever seen. Like his dad Boomer, he doesn't just run, he bounds along like he has springs on his legs.Over the last year, he has brought much joy and laughter to our house.
Tim and Tari Spokane, WA
Hi Delaine,
Hope you are doing well. Here is a photo of Milo at four months. He is an awesome dog! He is really smart, eager to please, loving, funny, and incredibly social. Milo cries when he hears dogs walking by outside our house. My very large family and the entire neighborhood love him! He has learned obedience, manners, and tricks very quickly and is a major athlete. I'm planning to take him to an agility class when he turns six months old.
Elizabeth Skokie, IL
Chewie is such a wonderful dog. He loves people and other dogs and is always happy. He took to his training really well and has been an easy dog for us to handle -- even as first time dog owners! He has a great personality and is always willing to play or snuggle up next to you. Thank you so much for everything, we couldn't be happier!
Erin Eiseman & Travis Fleck Seattle, WA
Friday is a great dog! What surprises us most about him is how affectionate he is and how he really just wants to be part of everything. There are three other Labradoodles in our immediate neighborhood, all the owners agree Friday is the easiest going and at the same time the liveliest. He's a true personality and a very welcome one. He could not possibly be any cuter or more endeared to our family. Julie Dow Seattle, WA
