About Us

Bernedoodle Puppies Caledonia IL

Our kennel name, AKA, stands for the first letter of each of our daughter’s names – Amanda, Katie and Abby. We take pride in what we do and have been breeding healthy puppies since 2002. Recommended as the best doodle breeder in IL for Therapy and Bio-Sensory service animals.

As a family-owned business started in 2002, we are a breeder of choice time and again based on our vast experience and the high quality of our dogs. Our dogs are highly recommended for service dogs and therapy dogs. We have had many puppies go on to become therapy dogs for children with autism and down-syndrome.

At AKA’s Doodles, we specialize in the Australian Labradoodles because they have been selectively bred for many generations to produce their nice temperament, beauty, allergy friendly coats & great health.

Most our Australian Labradoodle bloodlines originate with Rutland Manor & Tegan Park in Australia. We have Australian multi gen lines which increases genetic diversity. All of our breeding dogs have gone through all the required health testing for breeding.

If you are looking to bring a dog into your life, our Labradoodles, Bernedoodles and Goldendoodles make perfect, loving, family dogs and that are allergy friendly with low to non-shedding coats.

Started Puppies

These are the currently available “Started Puppies”.

What is a “Started Puppy“?
Here are the training points we use during this program:

  • They begin crate training
  • They have a great start with house training
  • They will sleep through the night
  • Learn commands sit & down
  • Learn to walk with a leash
  • They will also go on short car rides as a part of their training.

Socialization is the key to success in bringing home your new puppy. Crate training done correctly is a lifesaver for dog owners! If a dog is taught through positive reinforcement, they will love the crate, and then it becomes their own private and safe place. Our Started Puppy training program is perfect for busy families that could use a great start!

We have puppies who have completed our Started Puppy Program and are ready to make an excellent addition to your family!

Today Beau turned 2 years young! He is from Sperry and Finn’s litter. He is a service dog. When he is working; he is focused and disciplined. Yet, when he is not working, he is playful, goofy and compassionate. We love him, and can’t wait to get him a playmate. Thank you for blessing us with Beau!

We’ve had Teddy for 4 years now and we are so thankful to have him. He loves to play tug, go on long walks, and chase bunnies. He’s such a great dog! Thank you again!

Today was Ralphie’s (Wrigley) 1st birthday! We love him so much & can’t imagine our lives without his goofy self! 🤍

“We got Wrigley from you in late 2014. He was 8 years old last October. He is the absolute sweetest, best, friendliest dog. He loves the grandchildren and is very protective. Just thought I’d pass this along.”

Laura R.

“I’ve never done an update since we received our puppy, so thought I’d send. Oliver just turned two on 12/26, he is from Annie and Charlie Brown’s litter. He is a big boy and has such a big personality. High energy, loving, super smart, protective , loves being around other dogs, and talks to us. That’s right, if he doesn’t like something he lets us know!! 🙂 We couldn’t imagine our life without him.”

 

Laura Cronin and Family

“We wanted to share an update with you. Charlotte is a year old, birthday 11/24/2021 and Ivy is 6 months, birthday, 6/5/2022. Charlotte and Ivy are great puppies. They are half sisters (same Mom) and get along perfectly and we love them so much! Thank you!!”

“We love Pretzel! Pretzel is such a good girl and was so easy to train (especially for being my first dog ever) and makes me want another 🤪

Lily

“Huckleberry turned one on November 28 and has been an absolute joy!!! He welcomed his baby sister in October and is the best big brother – giving lots of kisses. Also his half brother, obi, came home to a good friends and he loved meeting him!”

Ralph & Janet

“Hi Amy and Matt! We’re Ralph and Janet (retired firefighter, and pre-school teacher) who purchased a pup from you on Valentine’s Day. FYI, we’ve named him Buddy, and he’s doing remarkably well. He weights 14 lbs., had a great vet checkup (our vet complimented you) and he’s enjoying his yard! He’s doing amazing with potty training, only one pee accident, nothing more. He goes down for the night at 11:00, and is now
use to his crate. We set the clock for 3:00 and he goes outside successfully. I just wanted you to know how much we love him. He’ll be starting kindergarten soon.”
