Family-Raised with Support — Home Raised + Lifetime Breeder Partnership

Our puppies grow up in a loving environment surrounded by family life, love, and attention from both adults and children. Because they’re familiar with everyday sights, sounds, and routines, their transition into your home is seamless. And our lifetime breeder support means you’re never alone in your puppy-raising journey.



Training Foundations — Potty, Crate & Dog Door Conditioning

We give every puppy a head start with early potty training foundations, crate conditioning, and dog door introduction. These foundations make for easier nights, smoother schedules, and faster house-training success once your puppy is home.



Grooming + Chewing Basics — First Bath & Chew Conditioning

Puppies experience their first bath, blow dry, and gentle grooming here with us. They also learn healthy chewing habits using positive reinforcement, so they naturally gravitate toward appropriate toys instead of furniture or shoes.



Thriving with Nutrition — Holistic Nutrition Partnership

We proudly partner with PawTree to feed every Red Desert Doodle the highest-quality holistic food and supplements. This premium nutrition supports immunity, coat health, and balanced growth — helping your puppy thrive from day one.



Safety + Protection — 30 Days Insurance + Microchip

Your peace of mind matters. Every puppy goes home with a permanent microchip ID and the option for 30 days of free pet insurance — available when you activate your policy within 24 hours of pickup. It’s an added layer of protection for life’s “just-in-case” moments.

A Lifetime of Love, Health, and Support

From our very first phone call to years after your puppy joins your home, we’re here for you.

Our family-raised Australian Labradoodles are the product of love, science, and purpose — backed by support that lasts a lifetime.

We picked Lexie up a month ago today. She is Cherry from the Slurpee litter. She was 7 1/2 lbs when we got her and she is now 14 lbs. Lexie is very food motivate, which helps with training. She is our second RDD and we are so grateful for her. She and Luna (3 years), from Willow's retirement litter, get along great. Yes, there are a few "time-outs", mainly to give Luna a break, but they play well and we can't be happier. I just love having two doodles. Lexie is bright, a fast learner and major cuddle bug; and she can hold her own with Luna. Thank you Max and Cindy for the wonderful addition to our family. (who know's, with our new yard, there might be a third doodle in our future) time will tell.

She has been a wonderful joy to have in our home, to train, to play with, and of course to shower with love. It’s funny how life works, she was not our first choice and I am not sure what criteria was used in selecting her for us, besides our positioning in the cue, but I can not imagine having any other puppy but her. She is well love by many and has been a blessing in helping us heal from the loss of our Bella Rose.

Both Erik and I look forward to many years of companionship with our Luna and now our Lexie! Thank you again, for breeding such amazing puppies!

Cheers,

Lisa, Erik and Luna Baurmeister

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an amazing experience with Max & Cindy at Red Desert Doodles and highly recommend them! Superb communication with follow up and updates through the adoption process. At 20 months old our RDD has passed the Advanced Canine Good Citizen tests (CGCA, Community and CGCU, Urban) and completed and passed the Service Dog Training! He is healthy, eager to please, intelligent and very loving. I have no doubt this is the result of Red Desert Doodles excellent breeding program and Puppy Culture program. We’re so fortunate to have found them and excitedly awaiting our 2nd puppy!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We decided to buy a dog for our daughter and her 5 amazing children. They have been going through family trials and we wanted to be able to bring them some joy.
We found this group out of St. George, UTAH and they were so happy to help with getting this dog to Colorado in any way that they could. We had always loved labradoodles, but this breed with the added Ausie mix is so smart, beautiful, and easy with children that we have found out we made the perfect decision.
The breeder is also helpful with answering questions about the doggie care, and this puppy came pretty much potty trained and walking with us wherever we went. So SWEET!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience with Max and Cindy at Red Desert Doodles! They were kind, patient, and clearly passionate about their dogs. They allowed our family to visit multiple times to connect with the litter, which meant a lot to us.

Our expectations were high after hearing glowing reviews from friends—and they were absolutely met. Our puppy has the sweetest temperament, is happy, loving, and full of personality. We’re so grateful Max and Cindy helped us find the perfect fit for our family.

Highly recommend Red Desert Doodles!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't sing the praises of Red Desert Doodles enough! We're first timers to having a puppy and the experience has been life changing. Max dutifully posts weekly updates as the puppies progress from their first days until the moment you pick them up. You're able to facetime them to see how happy, clean and spacious their home is for the new puppies. They post to Facebook each week to keep families updated on puppies' progress.

I flew to RDD in October, returned with our beautiful pup, and she's been a dream. My mom (who's also never raised a dog) keeps asking "Is it normal for a dog NOT to bark? Why is she such a dream?!" Our house if filled with people of all ages, and our puppy assimilated beautifully from day one. She rarely barks, has been super easy to train, came to us crate-trained and nearly potty trained, and sits to say please. LOVE!!!

Red Desert Doodles is a top-notch operation and has been doing this for 30+ years. They know what they're doing, are excellent communicators and breed dogs that are smart, beautiful and well-tempered for families and kids.

Our puppy has a million dog friends around our active neighborhood and they all love wrestling with her. Several people have asked where we got her b/c of her temperament and playful nature.
