About the breed

Pedigree certificate

When you buy an Australian Labradoodle from an ALAEU breeder, this dog is bred in accordance with the ALAEU’s Code of Ethics and breeding rules. This means you can assume you are buying a responsibly bred puppy from parents that were tested.

The ALAEU breeder shall register his/her litter with the ALAEU after the puppies have been microchipped. The maximum time a breeder has to do this is within 4 months of the birth of the litter. If all requirements and conditions are met, the ALAEU will issue pedigree certificates to the breeder. The breeder decides whether a pedigree certificate will be issued to the puppy buyer. The breeder also determines the conditions and time to provide a pedigree certificate to the puppy buyer.

A pedigree certificate that looks different than the example below has not been issued by the ALAEU. You cannot then assume that all ALAEU rules have been followed by the breeder. An ALAEU member breeder is never allowed to make a pedigree certificate himself.

Family pet only 

A pedigree certificate may bear the 'family pet only' stamp, which indicates that a dog may never be used as a breeding dog. Reasons for this stamp include:

  • You buy a puppy from an ALAEU breeder that has not been neutered at the time of collection. You have signed a contract agreeing to neuter the puppy within no more than 18 months.
  • You have bought a puppy with a contract that includes a breeding ban.

The pedigree certificate then looks like this:
