Portia’s F1B Labradoodle Puppies in Ontario

Upcoming 2026 F1B Labradoodle Litter — Applications Open

We are very excited to be planning another beautiful litter with Portia, our Phantom F1 Labradoodle.

Portia’s puppies are expected to arrive at approximately October, 2026, with puppies ready to join their new families around December 20, 2026. Dates are Aproximate

This litter is being planned for beautiful Red Parti, Chocolate Parti, Phantom and Chocolate F1B Labradoodle puppies with the loving, intelligent and family-oriented temperament we value so much at Cucciolini Doodles.

Our puppies are raised in our home, surrounded by the everyday sounds, routines and affection of family life. From their earliest days, they are handled gently, watched carefully and given the time they need to grow and develop at their own pace.

Families interested in Portia’s F1B Labradoodle puppies in Ontario are welcome to follow our Upcoming Litters, read about Our Adoption Process and complete our Adoption Application when they are ready.

Meet Portia – Our Beautiful Phantom F1 Labradoodle

Portia is a happy, loving girl who truly enjoys being around people.

Portia has a gentle nature and a wonderful way of making herself comfortable wherever the family happens to be. She loves attention and affection, but she is equally content simply being nearby and sharing the moment with us.

Children bring out such a sweet side of Portia. She enjoys their company and has always been naturally gentle around them. She is also lovely with older adults and seniors, which is one of the things we value most about her.

Portia is not timid. She is confident, social and genuinely interested in the people around her.

She is also exceptionally intelligent.

She learns quickly, pays attention to routines and enjoys interacting with us. She understands what is happening around her and has that lovely Doodle quality of wanting to be involved in family life.

Portia enjoys being active too. Walks, hiking, playing ball and exploring outdoors are all favourite activities. Once the fun is finished, she is perfectly happy coming home and relaxing with the family.

That balance suits her beautifully.

She can enjoy an active afternoon without needing to remain busy every minute of the day. Portia knows how to play, how to learn and how to settle.

At approximately 45 pounds and 21 inches at the shoulder, Portia is a lovely medium-sized F1 Labradoodle.

Her rich brown Phantom Labradoodle coat gives her such a distinctive appearance. Warm tan markings around her face and body add beautiful contrast to her chocolate colouring.

Her appearance is striking, but it is Portia’s personality that makes her so important to us.

Her gentleness, intelligence, affection, confidence and love of people are the qualities we want to carry forward into her puppies.

Families can learn more about her on Meet Portia – Phantom Labradoodle and meet our other mothers through Our Stunning Females.

What We Value in Portia’s Puppies

When we plan a litter with Portia, we look at much more than colour.

We want puppies that begin life with a strong foundation for becoming wonderful family companions.

Portia already brings so many of the qualities we love to her puppies—her happy nature, intelligence, affection, confidence and gentleness with people.

Our Poodle lines are selected to complement those qualities with the calm, loving, intelligent and trainable temperament we value throughout our program.

Some of the qualities we are breeding for include:

Gentle, affectionate temperaments

Intelligence and trainability

Confidence around people

Strong family connection

Wonderful companionship for children and adults

Playfulness and curiosity

The ability to enjoy activity and then settle

Beautiful non-shedding furnished coats

Balanced structure and movement

Happy, social personalities

Each puppy will still have its own personality.

One may be more adventurous. Another may be happiest cuddling in someone’s arms. Another may prefer to watch what is happening for a moment before joining the fun.

We enjoy watching those personalities emerge.

It also allows us to help our families understand more about the puppies when the time comes to choose their forever companion.

Portia’s DNA Health Testing

Health testing is an important part of our breeding program.

Portia has completed extensive DNA health screening for hereditary conditions associated with her Labrador Retriever and Poodle ancestry.

Portia’s DNA Health Results

Progressive Retinal Atrophy, PRCD-PRA — CLEAR

Golden Retriever Progressive Retinal Atrophy 1, GR-PRA1 — CLEAR

Portia’s CLEAR DNA health results give us valuable information when planning her litters.

At Cucciolini Doodles, DNA health testing is considered together with veterinary care, temperament, structure, family history and the health information behind both parents. This complete approach helps us make careful breeding decisions with the well-being of our dogs and puppies always at the forefront.

Families can explore our complete DNA Tested Doodles Ontario page and learn more about the protection included with our puppies through our Two-Year Health Guarantee.

What Is an F1B Labradoodle?

Portia is an F1 Labradoodle, bringing together Labrador Retriever and Poodle ancestry.

Her puppies are F1B Labradoodles, a generation loved by many families for its beautiful Doodle appearance, intelligence, affectionate temperament and non-shedding coat.

The additional Poodle influence in the F1B generation gives us the furnished coat characteristics we want while keeping the qualities we love about our Labradoodle mothers.

Families often choose our F1B Labradoodle puppies because they are looking for a dog that can become an involved member of family life—a companion who can enjoy walks and play, learn quickly, interact with the family and settle comfortably at home.

Families who would like to learn more about the generation can visit our F1B Labradoodle Guide.

Portia’s Non-Shedding Labradoodle Coats

Portia’s F1B Labradoodle puppies are bred for beautiful non-shedding furnished coats.

The texture can range from a soft, flowing wave to a more defined loose curl.

That variety is part of what gives every puppy its own look.

Soft Wavy Fleece Coats

A wavy fleece coat has softness and movement without being tightly curled.

It creates the relaxed Doodle appearance many of our families love.

Defined Wavy & Loose Curly Coats

Some puppies develop more texture through the coat, with soft, defined waves or loose curls.

These coats show more Poodle influence while still retaining the beautiful soft appearance associated with our Labradoodles.

Furnishings

Furnishings create the longer hair around the muzzle, beard and eyebrows that gives a Doodle its expressive face.

Portia herself has a lovely furnished appearance, and these coat qualities are an important part of our F1B Labradoodle program.

A non-shedding Labradoodle coat still requires regular grooming. The hair continues growing and needs brushing, combing and professional grooming to remain comfortable and free from mats.

Families with allergies can also read our Ultimate Guide to Dog Allergies because individual sensitivities can differ from one person to another.

Portia’s Beautiful Phantom Colouring

One of Portia’s most recognizable features is her beautiful Phantom colouring.

Phantom refers to the placement of contrasting markings over a darker base coat.

Portia has a rich chocolate-brown coat with warm tan markings that beautifully frame her face and complement her colouring.

Her eyebrows, muzzle and other points create the distinctive Phantom appearance families often notice immediately.

That beautiful colouring gives us an exciting foundation for Portia’s puppy program.

Colours in Portia’s F1B Labradoodle Litter

Portia’s upcoming litter is planned for a beautiful combination of:

Red Parti Labradoodles

Chocolate Parti Labradoodles

Phantom Labradoodles

Chocolate Labradoodles

Every puppy’s markings will be individual.

Even two puppies described as the same colour can look completely different because of where white, tan, chocolate or red markings appear.

Red Parti Labradoodles

Red Parti Labradoodle puppies have beautiful red colouring combined with areas of white.

One puppy may have a broad white blaze and chest while another may have more colour across the face and body.

Chocolate Parti Labradoodles

Chocolate Parti Labradoodles combine rich chocolate colouring with white.

These markings can create striking contrasts and beautifully individual patterns.

Phantom Labradoodles

Phantom Labradoodle puppies have contrasting markings around characteristic areas such as the eyebrows, muzzle, chest and legs.

Portia herself is a wonderful example of how beautiful Phantom colouring can be.

Chocolate Labradoodles

Chocolate Labradoodles can range from rich deep brown to softer shades as their adult coat develops.

Chocolate colouring is especially beautiful when combined with the soft texture and furnishings of a Doodle coat.

Colour is exciting, and we certainly enjoy watching each puppy’s appearance develop, but our families are encouraged to look beyond colour when choosing their puppy.

A puppy’s temperament and fit with the family matter far more throughout the many years ahead.

Expected Size of Portia’s Puppies

Portia is approximately 45 pounds and 21 inches tall.

Her F1B Labradoodle puppies are expected to mature within a lovely medium size.

Adult size is influenced by both parents and the genetics inherited by the individual puppy, so littermates are not always identical in height or weight once fully grown.

We provide our families with the expected adult range for Portia’s litter so they have a realistic idea of the size of dog they are welcoming into their home.

The Labrador Retriever Side of the Labradoodle

Labrador Retrievers have a long history of working closely with people.

Their friendly nature, intelligence, enthusiasm and willingness to participate in family activities helped make them one of the founding breeds behind the Labradoodle.

Portia carries Labrador Retriever ancestry, but we always prefer to talk about the dog we actually know rather than rely entirely on a general breed description.

Portia herself loves people.

She enjoys learning.

She enjoys activity.

She is affectionate and social.

And she has a beautiful connection with children and elderly people.

Families interested in learning about the parent breed can read the Canadian Kennel Club’s Labrador Retriever breed information.

The Poodle Side of the Labradoodle

The Poodle contributes far more than a beautiful non-shedding coat.

Poodles are intelligent, athletic, trainable and closely connected with family life.

Within our own Poodle lines, we especially value docile temperament, affection, intelligence, social confidence and trainability.

These qualities complement Portia beautifully.

They also give us the type of foundation we want for puppies that can become loving companions while still enjoying training, activities and family adventures.

Families who would like to learn more can visit the Canadian Kennel Club’s Standard Poodle breed information.

Raising Portia’s Puppies in Our Home

Our puppies begin their lives inside our home.

We want them to grow up surrounded by the normal rhythm of family life rather than separated from it.

They experience gentle handling from birth, including human voices, household sounds and the ordinary routines happening around them.

They get plenty of time to sleep and grow while gradually becoming more aware of their surroundings.

Early Socialization

Socialization begins with simple, positive experiences.

Our puppies gradually become familiar with:

Gentle handling

Human touch

Household sounds

Different safe surfaces

New textures

Family activity

Puppy play

Age-appropriate toys

Everyday movement around the home

Positive interaction with people

The purpose is to help puppies develop confidence without overwhelming them.

Families continue that work once their puppy goes home.

Our Puppy Socialization and Training Guide provides additional ideas for helping a young puppy become comfortable in its new world.

Training Your Labradoodle Puppy

A Labradoodle puppy can learn an incredible amount when training is kept positive and consistent.

Early lessons do not need to be complicated.

Begin with everyday skills such as:

Learning their name

Coming when called

Sit

Down

Walking comfortably on leash

Accepting gentle handling

Crate introduction

Settling quietly

Appropriate chewing

Beginning household manners

Short sessions work beautifully with young puppies.

Training happen naturally throughout the day.

Teaching Your Puppy to Come When Called

Teaching your puppy to come when called is one of the most important things you can begin working on from the time your puppy comes home. It is not only helpful in everyday life—it can become an important safety skill as your puppy grows.

The good news is that recall does not have to feel complicated. Start slowly, keep it positive and remember that your puppy is still learning what the word “come” actually means.

Start Somewhere Quiet

Begin inside your home where there are very few distractions.

Sit or crouch a short distance away from your puppy and happily say their name followed by “Come!”

Use a cheerful voice. You want your puppy to hear excitement in your voice and want to come toward you.

When your puppy comes to you, praise them right away. Give them affection, a small treat or a favourite toy and let them know they did something wonderful.

At this stage, you are simply teaching:

“When I hear my name and come to my family, something good happens.”

Begin With Only a Short Distance

There is no need to call your puppy from across the house when you first begin.

Start only a few feet away.

Once your puppy understands the little game, gradually increase the distance.

You can even have two family members sit several feet apart and gently take turns calling the puppy back and forth.

Keep it happy and fun. A few successful repetitions are much better than continuing until your puppy becomes tired or distracted.

Use Your Puppy’s Name First

We like families to use the puppy’s name before the recall word.

For example:

“Portia, come!”

Give your puppy a moment to respond.

Try not to repeat:

“Come, come, come, come!”

If the word is repeated over and over while the puppy ignores it, the puppy can begin learning that “come” does not really mean they need to respond.

Instead, make yourself interesting.

Crouch down, clap gently, open your arms or move backward a few steps while encouraging your puppy toward you.

Always Make Coming to You a Happy Experience

When your puppy comes to you, be happy to see them—even if they took a little longer than you hoped.

Praise them.

Give them a cuddle.

Offer a small treat.

Play with their favourite toy.

Your puppy should begin to believe that coming back to you is one of the best choices they can make.

This is especially important when they are young.

Never Punish Your Puppy After They Come to You

This is something I want every new puppy family to remember.

If your puppy has been doing something they should not be doing and you call them to you, do not punish them once they come.

Your puppy will not necessarily understand that you are upset about what happened before. They can begin connecting the punishment with coming to you instead.

We never want a puppy thinking:

“When they call me and I go to them, I get in trouble.”

Even when you are frustrated, praise your puppy for coming and deal with the unwanted behaviour separately.

Practise Around the House

Once your puppy understands the idea, practise in different rooms.

Call them from the kitchen.

Call them from the hallway.

Call them from another family member.

Practise when they are mildly interested in a toy.

These little moments teach your puppy that coming when called applies everywhere—not only during a formal training session.

Slowly Add Distractions

When your puppy is responding well inside the home, you can begin practising in a secure fenced area outside.

Outdoors is much more exciting.

There are smells, birds, leaves, people, sounds and a thousand other things that can suddenly seem more interesting than you.

Do not expect your puppy to perform outside exactly as they did in the quiet living room on the first attempt.

Begin close to them and reward successful recalls generously.

As your puppy becomes more reliable, you can gradually increase the distance and level of distraction.

Use a Long Line When You Need More Safety

When practising outdoors in an area that is not completely enclosed, use an appropriate long training line rather than allowing a young puppy to practise off leash.

A long line gives your puppy room to explore while still keeping them safely connected to you.

Never rely on an unfinished recall near roads, traffic or other dangerous areas.

Reliability takes time.

Do Not Call Your Puppy Only When the Fun Is Ending

This is a little mistake that is very easy to make.

Imagine your puppy is having a wonderful time outside. Every single time you say “Come!”, you immediately attach the leash and take them inside.

It will not take long before your clever puppy begins thinking:

“Come means my fun is over.”

Instead, sometimes call your puppy, reward them and then let them go back to playing.

They begin learning that coming to you does not always mean the adventure is finished.

Practise Every Day in Little Moments

Recall does not require a long training session.

Practise for a minute or two throughout the day.

Call your puppy before putting down their meal.

Call them for a cuddle.

Call them during play.

Call them from another room.

Call them outside in a secure area and then let them continue exploring.

These little everyday successes gradually create a much stronger response.

Be Patient When Your Puppy Reaches Adolescence

There may come a time when your puppy suddenly appears to have forgotten everything you taught them.

Welcome to adolescence!

As puppies become teenagers, the world can become much more exciting and distractions can become harder to resist.

This does not mean your training has failed.

Go back to easier situations, shorten the distance, use better rewards and continue practising.

Consistency matters much more than perfection.

Make Coming Home to You the Best Choice

Above everything else, we want your puppy to feel safe coming back to you.

Your voice should be familiar and encouraging. Your puppy should learn that returning to you brings praise, affection and reassurance.

Recall develops through hundreds of small, positive experiences rather than one perfect training session.

Be patient, celebrate the little successes and enjoy watching your puppy learn.

One day you will call your dog from across the yard and watch them turn around and come running straight toward you—and all of those little practice sessions will have been worth it.

Mental Enrichment & Play

Labradoodles are intelligent dogs, and they enjoy having something to think about.

Mental enrichment can include:

Puzzle toys

Food puzzles

Scent games

Retrieving

Hide-and-seek

Short training sessions

Interactive toys

Learning new words or behaviours

Safe chew activities

A few minutes of thoughtful play can be very satisfying for an intelligent dog.

Rest is equally important.

Puppies need plenty of sleep, and learning to relax without constant entertainment is a valuable part of growing into a comfortable family companion.

Exercise for a Growing Puppy

Puppies should be allowed to grow into exercise gradually.

Their bodies are developing, so activity should be appropriate for their age and size.

Young puppies enjoy:

Short exploratory walks

Sniffing

Self-paced play

Gentle retrieving

Training games

Safe exploration

Playing with family

Growing puppies should not be pushed into prolonged running or repetitive jumping.

As the puppy matures, the variety and length of activities can increase.

Life With an Adult Labradoodle

Portia herself enjoys walking, hiking and playing ball, and we expect her puppies to enjoy being involved with their families as they mature.

Adult Labradoodles can enjoy many different activities:

Walking

Hiking

Fetch

Swimming

Training

Exploring

Scent games

Family outings

Backyard play

Not every day needs to be a major adventure.

A walk, a little training, some play and time relaxing with the family can make for a perfectly happy day.

Grooming Your Non-Shedding Labradoodle

A non-shedding coat is beautiful, but it needs regular care.

Loose hair can remain within the coat instead of falling around the home, which means brushing and combing are important for preventing tangles and mats.

Families should begin grooming while their puppy is young.

The goal is for brushing, paw handling, ear checks and professional grooming to feel like normal parts of life.

Our Puppy Care Guide contains more information for families preparing for a Doodle puppy.

Brushing & Combing

A long-pin slicker brush and good-quality metal comb are two of the most useful tools for a Doodle coat.

Brush through the entire coat rather than only across the top.

Pay particular attention to:

Behind the ears

Under the front legs

Chest

Neck and collar area

Legs

Tail

Areas beneath a harness

The metal comb is useful because it shows whether the coat has actually been brushed through completely.

Families can also explore our Best Grooming Tools for Labradoodles.

Professional Grooming

Professional grooming should become a regular part of your Labradoodle’s routine.

The frequency depends on coat length, texture, home maintenance and the style you prefer.

Regular appointments are far more comfortable than waiting until a coat has become heavily tangled or matted.

Bathing

Bathing can be done as needed with an appropriate dog shampoo.

Brush and comb the coat before bathing whenever possible.

A tangle that is already tight can become even tighter once wet.

The coat should also be dried thoroughly.

Ear Care

Floppy ears deserve regular attention.

Become familiar with what your puppy’s healthy ears normally look and smell like.

Persistent scratching, redness, discharge, discomfort or unusual odour should be discussed with your veterinarian.

Nail Care

Begin gently touching and handling your puppy’s paws from an early age.

This makes nail trimming much less unfamiliar later.

Our How to Trim Puppy Nails Guide can help families become more comfortable with this part of grooming.

Dental Care

It is also helpful to introduce gentle mouth handling while your puppy is young.

Regular dental care can become part of the puppy’s normal routine instead of something suddenly introduced later in life.

Skin, Flea & Tick Care

Brushing gives you an opportunity to look closely at your dog’s skin.

Keep an eye out for redness, irritation, unusual bumps, tender areas or anything that seems different from normal.

Dogs who enjoy walks, fields and trails can also be exposed to fleas and ticks.

Families can read more on our Flea & Tick Care for Dogs page.

Your veterinarian can help you choose the most appropriate preventative care for your puppy and lifestyle.

Nutrition & Feeding

Good nutrition supports a growing puppy.

The amount a puppy eats depends on age, body condition, expected adult size, activity level and the nutritional density of the food being fed.

Young puppies eat smaller meals more frequently.

As they grow, their feeding routine changes.

Our families receive information about the food their puppy is eating and the feeding routine being followed before pickup.

Fresh water should always be available.

Treats can be very useful during training, but they should remain part of the puppy’s overall daily food intake.

Families can also explore our Puppy Nutrition Guidance for additional information.

Preparing for Portia’s Puppy to Come Home

The weeks before pickup are exciting.

Having supplies and routines organized before your puppy arrives makes those first days much easier.

Useful items include:

A comfortable crate

A safe puppy area

Food and water bowls

Puppy food

Collar or harness

Leash

Safe toys

Appropriate chews

Grooming supplies

Cleaning supplies

Baby gates if required

A designated potty area

Families looking for a safe puppy area can view this puppy exercise pen, and these puppy cleaning supplies are useful when preparing for the realities of puppyhood.

Our New Puppy Checklist can help families organize everything before pickup.

Our Puppy Stages Guide also provides information about early development and crate introduction.

Visits, Puppy Photos & Choosing Your Puppy

We understand how exciting it is to wait for a new puppy.

We also take protecting our mothers and young puppies very seriously.

For that reason, we do not offer in-person visits while the puppies are young.

Our dogs live in our home, and limiting outside traffic helps protect the well-being of the mother, her puppies and our other family dogs.

Families are part of the journey.

At approximately 10 days after birth, we take the puppies’ first individual photographs so families can begin watching them grow.

At approximately five weeks, we take another set of photographs along with video so families can see their development, personalities and beautiful changes.

We spend a great deal of time with the puppies and learn more about each of them as they grow.

When it is time to choose, we help guide our families so the decision is about more than colour.

We talk about the puppies, their personalities and what the family is looking for in their forever companion.

Families can read more about our visit policy on Can I Visit the Puppies or Parents? and learn more about selection through our Choosing the Right Puppy Guide.

Pickup Day

Pickup day is one of our favourite days.

It is exciting for us to watch a puppy leave with the family who has waited for it, prepared for it and already begun loving it before they have even brought it home.

We want families to feel prepared when they leave.

Your puppy comes home with important records, familiar food, comfort items and information to help with those first days.

And our relationship with you does not end when you drive away.

Food & Comfort Items

Your puppy comes home with approximately one week’s supply of the Royal Canin puppy food it has been eating with us.

Keeping the food familiar during the first days helps make the transition easier.

The puppy’s take-home package can also include:

A scented blanket

Toy

Leash

Harness

Bandana

Scented waste bags

Other puppy goodies

The scented blanket is especially meaningful because it carries familiar smells from the puppy’s first home.

Your Puppy’s First Days at Home

The first few days are a major change for a young puppy.

Your puppy has left its mother, littermates and the environment it has known from birth.

A quiet introduction to the home is often much easier than trying to introduce everyone and everything on the first day.

Give your puppy time.

Keep routines predictable.

Allow plenty of sleep.

Supervise carefully.

Start teaching the puppy where to potty, where to sleep and what the family routine looks like.

Families can use our Essential Tips for Puppy’s Homecoming, Puppy Socialization Guide, Puppy Care Guide and Puppy Stages Guide whenever they need additional help.
