About Us | United States | I Love U Back Labradoodles

Our Story

I am a certified dog trainer and certified in AKC Breeding, AKC Whelping & Intervention, ABC'S of Dog Breeding, Genetics Part 1 & 2 and an active Avidog Associate Breeder. My love for dogs has inspired me to become a full-time breeder/owner. I intend on improving the Labradoodle breed by using knowledge years of experience with dogs and science. I have a passion for dogs but an obsession with Labradoodles! I will not stop learning about the breed until there is nothing new to explore.

I Love U Back's top priority is the health of the Sire, Dam and pups.

My promise to you: I will always do my very best, placing healthy pups in a happy, nurturing forever home.

What Does I Love U Back Mean?

After a long day of work when you get home, your dog runs to you and is ecstatic to see you. This is their way of showing that they love you back.

We put our time, energy, love and effort into our dogs and although they can't vocalize their appreciation, looking into a Labradoodle's eyes they seem to tell us, "Thank you, I love u back!"

"Melinda kept us updated through the whole process and answered all of our questions.

Charlie was traveling via airline from Austin, Texas to Washington state. We met her at the airport and fell in love with her right away."

"Our experience with Melinda was super easy & efficient. From the moment I began a text thread, Melinda was responsive, even on off hours like Sunday's & evenings! We live in Colorado, so travel arrangements had to be made. Melinda was able to get a flight to our nearest airport at a time that worked for our family. She walked us through the process & Mac (now Maverick) was playing with me, my wife & two boys within days of the first text."

What is a Labradoodle?

The Labradoodle was originally developed in Australia to be a hypoallergenic guide dog. In 1989, Wally Conron, who was in charge of the breeding program for the Royal Guide Dogs Association of Australia, conducted the first purposeful crossbreeding between a Standard Poodle and Labrador Retriever.

I Love U Back Labradoodles, strives to breed the happiest, healthiest, and most intelligent Labradoodles whether they will be guide dogs or be part of a family (family dogs). We will continue to better our breeding program one litter at a time.
