The growing popularity of Aussiedoodles has pushed demand up sharply, which makes it harder, not easier, to find a genuinely reputable breeder. Puppy mills and backyard breeders know exactly which search terms buyers use, and they use those same terms themselves.
This directory pulls together every Aussiedoodle breeder guide we’ve published, organized by state and region, so you can go straight to the local information you need instead of digging through generic nationwide lists.

How to Use This Directory
Each link below goes to a dedicated guide for that state or region, covering local breeders, what they typically charge, and what to look for before you put down a deposit. Before you reach out to anyone, it helps to know the baseline standard a responsible Aussiedoodle breeder should meet, and we cover that in full in our guide to finding a reputable Aussiedoodle breeder, including the health testing (OFA, Embark, genetic panels) you should ask every breeder for in writing.

Regional Pricing and Availability
Aussiedoodle pricing and litter availability vary quite a bit by region. Coastal states and major metro areas (California, the New York/New Jersey corridor, South Florida) tend to run higher because of demand and cost of living, while breeders in the Midwest and South (Indiana, Illinois, North Carolina, Georgia) are often more affordable without cutting corners on health testing. If you’re not tied to a specific state, widening your search to a neighboring region can meaningfully improve your options and, in some cases, bring the price down.
If cost or waitlist length is a concern, it’s worth checking breed-specific rescue organizations before you commit to a breeder waitlist. Doodle rescues and regional Australian Shepherd rescues occasionally place adult Aussiedoodles whose original owners could no longer keep them, a route that skips the breeder question entirely and gives an older dog a second home.
Five Questions to Ask Any Breeder Before You Commit
No matter which state you end up finding your puppy in, the same core questions are worth asking any breeder:
- Can I see OFA hip/elbow and genetic panel results for both parents? A reputable breeder will show you paperwork, not just tell you the parents were “vet checked.”
- Has this pairing been screened for the merle gene on both sides? Breeding two merle-carrying parents together (a “double merle” pairing) significantly raises the risk of deafness and blindness in the puppies.
- Can I meet at least one parent in person or on a video call? Temperament is heritable, so meeting a parent tells you a lot about what to expect.
- What’s included in the health guarantee, and for how long? Get this in writing before any deposit changes hands.
- Where do the puppies spend their first eight weeks? Puppies raised in-home with early socialization tend to adjust far better than those raised in kennel-only environments.
Vet’s note: Reviewed by Dr. Muhammad Usman, DVM. The single biggest red flag buyers overlook is genetic testing for the merle gene. Breeding two merle-carrying Aussiedoodles together significantly raises the odds of “double merle” puppies, who are at real risk of congenital deafness and blindness. If a breeder can’t explain how they screen for this pairing, that’s one to walk away from, no matter how healthy the puppies look in photos.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an Aussiedoodle puppy typically cost?
Most health-tested Aussiedoodle puppies from a reputable breeder run $1,800 to $3,500, depending on region, coat color, and size, with merle and rarer colors often costing more. Prices well under $1,000 are worth investigating closely before you commit.
What’s the difference between a mini and a toy Aussiedoodle?
As adults, Mini Aussiedoodles typically settle between 15 and 35 lbs and come from a Miniature Poodle cross, while Toy Aussiedoodles stay under 15 lbs and come from a Toy Poodle cross. Toy lines are less common, so expect a bit more size variation from puppy to puppy within the same litter.
Are there Aussiedoodle rescues instead of buying from a breeder?
Yes. Doodle-specific rescue groups and regional Australian Shepherd rescues occasionally place adult Aussiedoodles, so it’s worth checking before you commit to a breeder waitlist, especially if you’re open to an adult dog rather than a puppy.
How long is the typical wait for an Aussiedoodle puppy from a reputable breeder?
Waitlists with well-established, health-testing breeders commonly run 6 to 18 months, and even longer for popular colors like merle. A breeder with puppies available year-round and no waitlist at all is worth a second look before you sign up.
Should I choose a local breeder, or is it okay to fly a puppy in from another state?
A local or drivable breeder lets you visit in person, meet a parent, and see the environment firsthand, something we recommend whenever it’s possible. Flying a puppy in is common and generally safe with a reputable breeder who handles proper health certificates and climate-controlled transport, but it does mean you lose the chance to verify conditions yourself before you commit.
