As ethical breeders, concern for the health and well-being of our animals is paramount and will always be a priority before profits.
Our core values ensure our dogs receive enrichment and an excellent quality of life.
Our animals are our passion, we do not do this as a part time exercise like many micro-breeders. We dedicate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to each and every one of our animals.
We strongly advise purchasers to buy from specialist full-time dog breeders instead of part-time breeders who allow their dogs to whelp unsupervised.
Our Mission is to breed for excellence in Health, Intelligence, Temperament and Hypo-Allergenic qualities.
We have access to extensive bloodlines and carefully select the parents of our puppies who possess the best qualities of their breed.
This ensures that our puppies are suitable for all types of families, first-time pet owners, seniors, and those looking for an assistance dog for Autism, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Multiple Sclerosis, Diabetes, and various other disabilities and mental health conditions.
As responsible breeders, we provide Genetic and Health Guarantees for every puppy, including 4 weeks of Free Pet Insurance.
We also encourage you to meet the parents of your puppy and see where your puppy was born.
Thank you for visiting Puppies Downunder
We are family-owned commercial dog breeders approved by the Victorian Minister for Agriculture to breed due to our exceptional ethical standards, extensive knowledge, and qualifications in animal biology, health, canine psychology, breeding, raising, and training over the past 45 years.
We work closely with Animal Welfare Victoria and our Local Council to ensure that the health and welfare of our animals are at the highest standards at all times.
With 45 years of experience and a passionate and dedicated team, we are trusted experts in this industry with a wealth of knowledge and the resources to care for, train and socialise our animals.
About Us
Leaders in Ethical Dog Breeding
Puppies Downunder are one of very few commercial dog breeders that have been approved by the Minister of Agriculture to breed dogs due to our highly professional and ethical standards.
Our approval to breed by the Minister of Agriculture MP was based on the recommendation from Animal Welfare Victoria's Chief Veterinary Officer.
We are now the leaders in this industry and have the highest ethical standards in the world!
As a Commercial Dog Breeder, we must receive approval from the Chief Veterinary Office of Victoria in order to operate and are under one of Australia’s toughest animal welfare reforms!
This world-first law in Victoria puts an end to animal cruelty and imposes some of the toughest restrictions ever seen on animal welfare.
Puppies Downunder works closely with the Minister of Agriculture and Animal Welfare Victoria to ensure full ongoing compliance with the Code of Practice for the Operation of Breeding and Rearing Business 2018.
As a Commercial breeder we must comply with the following requirements:
- Restrict numbers to no more than 50 fertile females
- Register with the local council as a domestic animal business
- Assist welfare officers to audit the premises upon request
- Educate and train staff and volunteers
- Ensure staff have appropriate qualifications
- Maintain a Health management plan for each breed of dog
- Maintain a Retirement plan for each dog
- Implement an exercise, enrichment, socialising and handling policy.
Our Breeding Facility
Our facility is regularly audited by our local council Latrobe City and Animal Welfare Victoria to ensure we are providing only the highest ethical standards to our animals.
This is something that we pride ourselves on and as previously mentioned we have the highest ethical standards worldwide.
Whilst we would prefer to have our puppies and their parents live in our home with beds and linen, the requirements of the State Government require us to home them in pens.
The majority of authorities state that all animal owners should crate train their puppies when they bring them home which is the same as keeping the animal in a pen.
We have recently completed exciting renovations throughout our facility which includes a new whelping and rearing facility as well as an on site veterinary room, so that our animals are provided with only the best of care.
Puppies Downunder and New Beginnings Animal Rescue have worked together finding homes for our retired dogs over a period that spans more than 15 years.
Puppies Downunder retire their dams after 5 litters and sires at the age of 7. If they are not adopted by our 15 staff, we call on Krystal from New Beginnings to help us find a loving home for them.
It is a great privilege to work with Krystal who is the founder of this non-profit organisation. She has helped us find many loving homes for our retired dams and sires.
At New Beginnings, their purpose is to rehome, save and rehabilitate animals from breeding establishments, pounds and shelters.
This not for profit organisation pays for veterinary costs themselves. They pay for food, toys, beds and many other things to make the animal’s life more comfortable.
They send the animal to a foster home to be assessed, and until a suitable home can be found for them.
They take the animal to their own homes, and they treat them as their own. They train them and socialise them. And they also pay this from their own pockets and the donations they raise.
This organisation needs your support to keep going and so they can meet the costs of helping these animals.
Please give generously.
