Welcoming a Puppy
from Alubyc

With over 55 years of experience, we offer the reassurance and integrity you need when choosing your new family member.

Before reaching out, we kindly ask that you take the time to read this entire page


It will help you understand our values and determine whether we’re the right fit for each other — an important first step in this lifelong journey.

We do not have puppies available all the time, and each litter is thoughtfully planned with the health, temperament, and future of our puppies at the forefront.

We are deeply committed to giving each puppy the best possible start in life. We reserve the right to decline any enquiry that we feel is not in the absolute best interest of the puppy’s long-term wellbeing.

Our goal is simple:
Every puppy deserves a soft landing and a forever home filled with love, stability, and purpose.

Please don’t view our questions as invasive — they are part of ensuring that both you and your future puppy are the right match for each other.

We’re a busy family and our dogs are our top priority, but we guarantee a timely response to your enquiry.

Our support doesn’t stop when your puppy goes home. We’re proud to offer an active, supportive community on Facebook, where you’re never more than a message away from advice, friendship, informal get-togethers, and guidance from us and our extended Golden family.

We also specialise in the assessment and placement of puppies for assistance and emotional support roles.
Karen holds a Bachelor of Psychological Science with Honours, with a focus on animal behaviour, and brings this expertise into matching suitable puppies with the right homes — whether for companionship or support.

Please take a moment to read the heartwarming stories on our [Testimonials page].

All of our breeding dogs are thoroughly health tested, with:

  • Hip and elbow scores well below the breed average
  • Current heart and eye certificates
  • Routine DNA testing for ICT-A, PRA1 & PRA2

We are proud of the health, structure, and soundness of the puppies we produce.

We only accept enquiries from families who are willing to complete our Puppy Enquiry Form. If you’re not prepared to do so, we’re not the right breeders for you.

We do not offer puppies for impulse purchase — each puppy is a cherished life, not a product. We match puppies to families based on temperament, lifestyle, and suitability. While some families may hope to “choose” from the entire litter, this is not how we operate. Show puppies are allocated first, and we use our extensive experience to help find the right match for each family.

Being on our waiting list does not guarantee a puppy, as we cannot control nature or litter sizes. When a suitable litter becomes available, you will be contacted with an offer. At that point, a deposit and signed contract will be required.

Puppies do not leave our care before 8 weeks of age. For all confirmed puppy families we organise a family day visit when the pups are 6 weeks old.

We expect that all our puppies will live primarily indoors, sleep safely and warmly inside, and will not be left alone outdoors all day.

Our Duty of Care

Our puppies always come first.

From planning, whelping, matching, and lifelong support, our duty of care guides every decision we make.

We understand that timing and availability are important, and while we do our best to manage expectations, we are ultimately guided by nature. If we can’t help you personally, we may be able to connect you with trusted breeders within our network.

Thank you for considering an Alubyc puppy. If our approach resonates with you, we welcome your puppy enquiry to begin the conversation.
