Cream Puff Labradoodles Support Dogs
In our fast-paced world, comfort and calm are essential. This is especially true for those facing physical or emotional challenges. At Cream Puff, our Australian Labradoodles are not just adorable, teddy bear-like companions - they offer so much more. Australian Labradoodles have the incredible ability to provide therapy and emotional support that truly changes lives.​
​
At Cream Puff Labradoodles, we specialize in breeding exceptional Australian Labradoodles that excel as therapy dogs, service dogs, and Emotional Support Animals (ESAs).
Why Do Cream Puffs Make Such Great Therapy and Service Dogs?
Australian Labradoodles are a special mix of Labrador Retriever, Poodle, and Cocker Spaniel, bringing together the best qualities of all three. They’re smart, friendly, and have a natural talent for sensing when someone needs a little extra love. Plus, their low-shedding coats are perfect for people with allergies, making them a great choice for therapy work.
Cream Puffs seem to just know when you’re having a rough day. Whether it’s offering a comforting paw or simply hanging out by your side, Australian Labradoodles have a way of making everything feel a bit more manageable.

In this video, Megan, our owner and Pack Leader, discusses the different types of support dogs and how they help their companions:
Therapy Dogs
Therapy dogs play a vital role in providing comfort and emotional support to individuals in hospitals, schools, nursing homes, and other settings. The gentle, loving nature of Australian Labradoodles makes them ideal for this role. Their calm demeanor and intuitive understanding of human emotions allow them to connect with people on a deep level, providing the soothing presence needed in stressful environments.
Service Dogs
Service dogs are trained to perform specific tasks that help individuals with disabilities lead more independent lives. Whether it’s guiding the visually impaired, alerting the hearing impaired to important sounds, or assisting with mobility tasks, Australian Labradoodles are up to the challenge. Their intelligence, eagerness to learn, and strong work ethic make them excellent service dogs. Plus, their friendly disposition helps them integrate seamlessly into the lives of those they assist.
Emotional Support Animals (ESAs)
An ESA provides crucial emotional support to individuals dealing with mental health challenges, such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD. Australian Labradoodles are naturally affectionate and attuned to their owner’s emotions, making them wonderful ESAs. Their loving companionship can provide the stability and reassurance needed to navigate difficult times.
Why Do People Choose a Cream Puff Specifically?
We've already talked about our Australian Labradoodles having an allergy-friendly coat, which makes our dogs even more suitable as support animals, especially in environments where allergen concerns are a priority. But another reason many clients come to us specifically is our close proximity to NYC. Located just an hour's drive from New York City, Cream Puff Labradoodles is conveniently positioned to serve the needs of all five boroughs. In a city where dog ownership can be challenging due to building restrictions, having a support dog like a therapy or service dog can make all the difference. Cream Puff has been in business for over 14 years now and during that time we've built a stellar reputation for supplying all three types of service dogs. We are very familiar with NYC and the nuances of different building restrictions that come with city life. Our dogs are often allowed in buildings and spaces where regular pets are not, and we often write letters for clients where these are needed by landlords to aid in the process of taking a puppy home.
