Cape Coral, FL
Reputable Australian Labradoodle Breeder Near Cape Coral, FL
Cape Coral's Waterfront Life and the Dog That Belongs in It
Cape Coral is unlike any other city in Florida. More than 400 miles of navigable canals run through it, more than any other city on earth. Life here tends to be lived close to the water: early mornings on the boat, afternoons at the dock, weekends exploring the Gulf. It attracts people who are serious about their lifestyle, and serious about the dogs that share it.
The Australian Labradoodle fits that life with very little compromise. They’re athletic and water-friendly without being hyperactive, social enough to thrive around guests and neighbors, and genuinely calm when the day winds down. Their low-to-no-shedding fleece coats hold up well in Southwest Florida’s heat and humidity and don’t leave a trail through a boat cabin or a tiled waterfront home.
Bestland’s Miniature and Small Medium sizes work well for Cape Coral households that want a dog that travels easily on the water. Mediums suit more active families with space to match. Either way, the temperament is consistent — and that consistency is the product of generations of deliberate breeding, not chance.
The Standards Behind Every Puppy We Produce
For a genuine multigenerational Australian Labradoodle, reputable breeding has a specific meaning tied to two organizations: ALCA (Australian Labradoodle Club of America) and WALA (Worldwide Australian Labradoodles Association).
Meeting the standards of either organization requires verified multigenerational pedigrees — documented lineage tracing back through generations of true Australian Labradoodle breeding, not a first-generation Lab-Poodle cross dressed up with a name. It also requires comprehensive health and genetic testing of all breeding dogs, with results on record.
Bestland meets the breeding standards of both ALCA and WALA. For families who’ve spent time researching what those standards actually mean, that matters — and we’re glad to answer any specific questions about what’s documented behind every puppy we produce.
All-In on the Farm — How Bestland Raises Every Litter
The most practical question about any breeder isn’t what certifications they hold — it’s who is actually with the dogs. At Bestland, the answer is simple: our family, every day, on our 40-acre farm in northwest Georgia.
Every breeding dog lives here with us, full-time. There are no guardian homes where dogs live with other families between litters, no outside facilities, and no gaps in the chain of care. The same people handle every breeding dog, every expectant mom, and every puppy from the moment they’re born to the moment they ship.
From their very first days, every puppy receives Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and the Puppy Culture protocol — structured practices that build the confidence and calm temperament that Southwest Florida families notice right away when their puppy arrives. The farm environment deepens this further: outdoor terrain, livestock sounds, multiple animals, and the varied stimulation of a working property give each puppy a depth of early experience that shapes who they are before they ever meet you.
Reputable isn’t just about paperwork. It’s about who is with your puppy, and what surrounds it, from the first hour of life.
The Value in What You Take Home
Every Bestland puppy arrives with a registered microchip, a complete health history covering vaccinations and deworming, a care guide built from years of hands-on experience, and a detailed transition resource for the first days at home. ALCA registration follows once spay/neuter is confirmed.
Beyond the paperwork is the relationship. Our families have access to our team and our private owner community for the lifetime of their dog. Questions get answered — not just in the first week, but whenever they come up. Browse our available puppies to see current and upcoming litters.
Your Path from Application to Arrival
It starts with your online Puppy Application. Once approved, a $500 deposit secures your place and sets the experience in motion: a Welcome Packet with litter details and prep materials, followed by weekly photo and video updates as your puppy grows. Open Houses at 6 and 9 weeks at our Rome, GA farm are available for Cape Coral families who want to make the trip, or you can follow along remotely with the same weekly updates every family receives.
At 9 weeks, your puppy travels to you. Domestic shipping is $500 and covers the flight crate and health certificate, delivered to a major airport near Cape Coral. Full details are on our adoption process page.

Our dog Molly was born in June and we picked her up in late August. She is a wonderful dog and we are so pleased. This is our first dog and Jeremy was very helpful throughout the process. Their dogs are beautiful, have great temperaments, and obviously had great socialization and a loving home at Bestland. He has a great approach to raising puppies and I appreciate all his advice and expertise. Thank you Jeremy and Marcela!+2Posted on Google![]()

Was on the lookout for a fur baby and came upon Bestland Australian Labradoodle’s and how thankful I did! Found my Pepita and fell in love. The whole experience was great and the owners were very responsive and helpful throughout the process. I highly recommend taking home one of these precious puppies!+2Posted on Google![]()

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the very beginning, the communication was wonderful, and it was clear how much love and care goes into raising these puppies. Our sweet Hank has been the absolute best addition to our family. He is happy, loving, playful, and has the sweetest little personality. You can tell he was raised in a caring environment and given so much attention before coming home to us. He has adjusted beautifully and already feels like he has always been part of our family. I’m so thankful we chose this breeder and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to add an Australian Labradoodle to their family. We are completely in love with our Hank! ❤️🐾+2Posted on Google![]()

UPDATE at 4 yrs: We continue to enjoy our Bestland boy! Don’t get me wrong, he has the typical labradoodle quirks such as me having to buy two pairs of slippers so I always have at least one pair to put on after he sneakily steals one! But he is still one of the best “investments” we’ve ever made. He continues to have ZERO health problems. All our friends run up big vet bills with allergies and ear infections and more but he just gets his annual checkup and is declared in perfect health! His coat is very forgiving with respect to my unprofessional grooming. I like to do my own grooming to save money and bond with him. He is super smart. If we lose a ball on the trail I just say “Go get the ball” and he hunts it down no matter how far back it disappeared. He loves other dogs and we’ve started a neighborhood dog pack walk every morning so he gets his social fix. He is loving and cuddly and we just can’t imagine our lives without him. 2 yr UPDATE: Our Bestland ALD is now almost 2 years old. I wrote the review below quite some time ago so just wanted to reiterate everything said before plus say how important it is to go with a reputable breeder like Jeremy and Marcella Best. At the time it seemed like a lot of money for a puppy but since I’ve watched so many people try to economize on the breeder price but then they spend WAY more on vet bills later. Our dog has had ZERO health problems—no ear infections, no allergies, nothing. He is an absolute joy. Previous Review: Bestland ALD is the best possible breeder. Jeremy Best reviewed what we wanted in a family pet and recommended a puppy to meet those needs. He and Marcella are so knowledgeable about the breed and provide detailed owner training prior to picking up the puppy on everything from the right diet to crate training and more. They have been very responsive in answering questions we have had since bringing our puppy home. Our little guy is without a doubt the best dog I’ve ever known and I’ve had quite a few dogs in my lifetime. He is so smart and with such a funny, sweet personality. He is great with people , other dogs , and children. He has a gorgeous black fleece coat and is very easy to train. He has been such a fun addition to our family! Thank you, Bestland!+0Posted on Google![]()

We are so happy that we found our dream dog at Bestland! We had searched for an Australian Labradoodle for a while that looks just like Bailey. She stayed at Bestland for training for six weeks and came home completely crate trained through the night, potty trained every hour, and leash trained. It was also helpful watching Jeremy's training video and getting his helpful training tips once we got home. He makes himself available to help answer my questions which is so nice for a first time puppy owner. We are so happy to have Bailey! She is absolutely adorable, has an incredible friendly and a loving personality; everything we were looking for in a dog! Thank you Bestland!+1Posted on Google![]()

We got our Daisy Mae from Bestland and we absolutely adore her. She is smart, well behaved, healthy, fun and has been a joyful addition to our family. Jeremy was extremely helpful and shared a lot of information to help prepare of us for Daisy and he continued to check in the first couple weeks be brought her home. It has been an extremely smooth transition. We love her and the experience we had with Bestland.+0Posted on Google![]()

Bestland puppies are the best! We are in love of our puppy Cooper. He is such sweet, lovely, cute playful little boy. He bring so much joy to our lives since he came. We are in Framingham, Massachusetts and Cooper came to us through a wonderful nanny flight delivery service all the way from Georgia!! Jeremy is a great breeder, He gave us many advices and helped us to get ready to welcome our puppy and made the adoption process smooth. The distance was not an inconvenient. Cooper is a good puppy, behave very well for his age, sleep well through the night since first day!! We love him so much and we are very happy 😍. If you are considering getting an Australian labradoodle Bestland is the best 👌+4Posted on Google![]()

We had an amazing experience with Bestland Australian Labradoodles from start to finish. The entire place is incredibly welcoming, family-oriented, and clearly centered around the well-being of the dogs. You can truly see how much love and care goes into everything they do. Jeremy was especially helpful throughout the process. As first-time puppy owners, we had a lot of questions, and he not only answered all of them thoroughly, but also shared helpful information we wouldn’t have even thought to ask. That guidance made a huge difference for us. What really stood out was that the support didn’t end when we took our puppy home. Jeremy checked in with us afterward, which meant a lot and showed how much he genuinely cares. Our puppy is happy, healthy, and absolutely perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Bestland Australian Labradoodles to anyone.+1Posted on Google![]()

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! We are in northeast Atlanta and it was an easy hour drive from us. Our chocolate brown Australian labradoodle Gus has been the most incredible addition to our family—calm, obedient, and already so loyal at only a couple weeks old. Within two weeks he’s sleeping through the night, going to the bathroom outside, and walks on a leash without pulling. He follows on our heels and is extremely loyal. It’s clear he was raised with care and intention. We constantly get compliments on his beautiful, soft wavy coat, his coloring, and especially his temperament. He has such a sweet, easygoing personality, which made the transition into our home seamless. Jeremy and the Bestland family has been amazing throughout the entire process—extremely communicative, responsive, and genuinely invested in his puppies and their new families. He was willing to sit down with us and answer all our questions and has a great set of training videos for reference. He made everything feel easy and reassuring from start to finish. If you’re looking for a breeder who truly cares and produces exceptional puppies, we highly recommend Jeremy.
