About us

I’m Trudy, owner, and breeder of Southern Star Spoodles and Labradoodles.

We have been breeding Spoodles and Labradoodles since 2007. We previously bred pedigree labradors for 10 years, so we have lots of knowledge & information to help with finding your forever friend.

We started breeding labradors many years ago with our chocolate pedigree labrador Dustie. (Nestle Dustie-Brown was her pedigree name!!) Her legacy continues through our current labradoodle lines as she had an exceptional temperament and confirmation.

Ruby (born in 2011) is our first foundation labradoodle, she is the great-granddaughter of our Dustie and was the start of our beautiful Southern Star lines.

Here’s a pic of our sons with Dustie and Jessie-where it all began.

Our Home

We live on a one-acre lifestyle block in Brightwater, Tasman.  The dogs and puppies have oodles of space to play, run and explore.
