Pups adopted form Labrador & Labradoodle Puppies Chicago

Was great working with Mike. He really loves and cares about his dogs. Making sure there are right fit for you and they are going somewhere well loved. Always available with questions guidance. Highly recommend .

We couldn’t be happier with our new mini Labradoodle puppy, Tucker! From the moment we brought him home, he has been an absolute joy. He is sweet, playful, affectionate, and has such a wonderful personality. The experience we've had with Mike at Labrador/Labradoodle Puppies Chicago was professional and seamless. I would highly recommend Mike and his team to anyone looking to add more love to their lives.

We are first-time dog owners and Mike made the entire experience truly wonderful. He was incredibly helpful and informative, guiding us through every step of the process. Even after we brought our pup home, he continued answering all of our questions for weeks—no matter how many we had. Mike held onto Penny for two extra weeks and used that time to crate train her, start potty training, work on leash training, and get her comfortable with car rides. She came home already well on her way, which made the transition so much easier for us. Penny is an amazing dog. She’s easily trainable, has a fantastic temperament, is great with our kids, and fits perfectly into our family. We’ve had her for two months now and still stay in contact with Mike. Overall, we’ve had an outstanding experience and would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a dog. You won’t find better support or a better start for your new family member!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a wonderful experience with Mike and Chicago Area Labs from start to finish! Mike was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and informative throughout the entire process. He took the time to answer our questions, kept us well informed, and genuinely made us feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. We were truly impressed with his facility, the way he runs his operation, and the obvious care and dedication he puts into his dogs and puppies. Mike also went the extra mile for us, which we sincerely appreciated. Most importantly, we couldn’t be happier with our puppy, Butters! 🐾 He has been such an amazing addition to our family, and we’re so grateful to Mike for helping bring him into our lives. We highly recommend Mike and Chicago Area Labs to anyone looking for a responsible, knowledgeable, and caring breeder. Thank you again, Mike!

I went to Mike’s place, and came back home with an adorable little puppy! Mike is amazing at instructing and advising on how to handle a new dog and he is great at keeping in contact! Would definitely recommend!

We adopted a silver lab puppy from Mike and it was the best decision ever. She is an amazing addition to the family!! Mike was so great during the process and even checks in with us after, he is so knowledgeable as well. She’s the best puppy we love her so much!

We recently adopted our newest family member, little Jordan (a Mini Labradoodle), from Mike, and we couldn't be happier with the experience! Since this was our very first time having a pet in our house, we were naturally anxious, but Mike made the entire process seamless and reassuring. Here is why working with Mike was an absolute pleasure: - Patient & Supportive Setup: Mike gave us plenty of time and space to choose the right puppy without any pressure. He was exceptionally supportive from day one. - Exceptional Health & Genetics: All of his puppies are genetically tested, and the parents are well-trained to ensure every pup is healthy, happy, and well-adjusted. - Unmatched Post-Adoption Support: Mike remains incredibly responsive long after adoption. We still have detailed discussions with him about training, and his inputs are always spot-on and deeply valuable. - Genuine Care: He proactively checks in on us to see how our family is settling in and how Jordan is doing, which shows how much he truly cares about his pups. If you are anywhere in the Chicagoland area—or even a couple of hours' drive away—do not hesitate. It is worth every mile to get your new family member from him. Thank you, Mike! You are awesome!

We had a great experience working with Mike and adopting our 8 month old puppy Maple. He spent a lot of time with us and helped us pick the right dog for our family. He is also just a very compassionate and caring person who loves what he does, and it shows every time you interact with him. We had a few concerns with some adjustment behaviors in the beginning, but these were very brief, and Mike was always available to talk through things and provide helpful advice. A couple weeks later, Maple adjusted beautifully and has since been a very happy, playful, bouncy, friendly, and curious puppy. She's great with kids and other dogs. We are very impressed with how smart she is, how much she loves swimming in the lake and fetching (we know she had no experience with this previously), and how quickly she is learning. We've never had a labradoodle before (always rescued mutts), and you can tell these dogs are different/special in a really good way. Just about everywhere we go, people comment on how great she is. We are very happy with our experience!

Mike was wonderful! He is kind, honest, and truly cares about his pets. He answered all of my questions patiently and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Our new pet is healthy, happy, and exactly as described. I highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a responsible and trustworthy breeder/seller. Thank you, Mike!

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Mike. From day one, it was clear how passionate he is about ethical breeding and producing healthy, well-tempered puppies. What really sets him apart is his commitment to educating puppy owners. He takes the time to explain health certifications, genetics, responsible breeding practices, and what to look for in a well-bred dog, helping families make informed decisions. His support doesn’t end when you bring your puppy home. Mike has continued to check in on Frankie, answer our questions, and offer guidance whenever we’ve needed it. That level of care and dedication is rare and shows how invested he is in every puppy he places. We’re incredibly grateful for Frankie and highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a breeder who is knowledgeable, ethical, and truly cares about both his dogs and the families they become a part of.

From the very moment we first contacted Mike regarding information about his puppies, til the moment we took both of our silver labs home he has been nothing short of amazing. He is very knowledgeable regarding all aspects of the breeding process, and I could tell from our first conversation over the phone that he wanted to make sure his puppies were going to a good home. He shared stories about his experiences, from the early days of his business all the way to where he is at today. We picked up Smokey on June 13th and continued to see Mike for his vaccinations. 4 weeks after bringing Smokey home we were back at Mike’s for another round of puppy vaccinations and his only brother remaining in the litter was still there along with two females. Once we saw the two of them back together we knew it was only right to bring him home as well. So now we have Smokey and Stack, and our family couldn’t be any happier. I would highly recommend Mike for any of your needs, whether it be puppies, training boarding, or vaccinations you can tell that he truly loves what he does. His life revolves around his dogs and his puppies, and I’m sure he wouldn’t have it any other way. Thanks Mike for all you have done for our family. 🐶🐶💙💙

I cannot recommend Mike and Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies Chicago highly enough! From the very beginning, Mike made the puppy adoption process seamless and enjoyable. He supported us every step of the way, allowing us to visit our pup, Logan, before he was ready to come home. Mike ensures that all appointments run smoothly and has consistently checked in on Logan since we brought him home. It’s clear that he truly cares about the well-being of his puppies. Logan is not only healthy but also has an incredible disposition, showcasing the qualities of a great dog. He is physically and emotionally strong, and we couldn’t be happier with our new family member. Thank you Mike!

We had such a wonderful experience with Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies Chicago and breeder Mike Martinez. From the moment we met him, it was clear how much care and attention he gives to his puppies. We received our sweet girl, Espresso, and could immediately tell how well she had been cared for. She was already crate trained, calm, loving, and well-adjusted. Mike walked us through every detail, answered all of our questions, and made the entire process feel comfortable and reassuring. What has impressed us even more is that Mike continues to follow up with us to see how Espresso is doing. That kind of genuine care means so much. We are incredibly grateful to have found him and would highly recommend Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies Chicago to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and knowledgeable breeder. Thank you, Mike, for bringing our beautiful Espresso into our lives! ❤️🐾 Joe & Geneen

We recently adopted the newest member of our family, Nico, from Mike. Mike is so knowledgeable about the breed and the breeding process, and it is clear he cares deeply about all his dogs. Nico is healthy and well behaved already, most likely because he was born into a well-kept, spacious, loving environment for the pups. We were also able to meet Nico’s parents, who were both happy, healthy, and well-behaved. Nico immediately bonded with our two children and our 6 year old Goldendoodle. We are so happy that we found Mike and his pups!

From our very first conversation to the day we brought our puppy home, our experience was absolutely outstanding. It was clear from the beginning that Mike genuinely cares about his dogs and is passionate about raising healthy, well-socialized Labrador puppies. Mike was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire adoption process. Every question we had was answered thoughtfully and honestly, and Mike took the time to ensure we felt informed and confident every step of the way. There was never any pressure—just genuine care for his puppies and the families adopting them. The love and dedication Mike puts into his breeding program are evident in every interaction and in the wonderful temperament of our puppy. You can tell Mike prioritizes the health, well-being, and lifelong success of each dog above all else. If you’re looking for an ethical, trustworthy, and caring Labrador breeder, we truly cannot recommend Mike at Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies Chicago highly enough. We are so grateful for the incredible experience and for helping us find the perfect new member of our family. Thank you for everything, Mike! One thing that truly set Mike apart happened a couple weeks after we brought our puppy home. Our puppy unexpectedly contracted parvovirus and became critically ill. It was one of the most frightening experiences we’ve ever been through given the 90% fatality rate!. Throughout the entire ordeal, Mike never hesitated to help. He stayed in close contact with us, walked us through what to expect from the emergency veterinarian, helped us understand the critical first 48 hours, and continued checking in as our puppy fought his way back to health. His support, knowledge, and genuine concern meant more to us than we can express. It showed us that Mike’s commitment to his puppies doesn’t end when they leave his home—he truly cares about every dog he breeds and the families who welcome them.

Mike is amazing! And his puppies are amazing! The biggest thing that really sets the standard would be how Mike makes sure that you can truly have a puppy or not. He calls and ensures that you are fit to adopt a puppy. He doesn’t stop there he then sets you up for success when you are bringing them home. The research that he does for the care of the puppies and everything surrounding them is fabulous too. We are first time owners and felt extremely confident thanks to Mike and his constant support. Bringing Rio home has been such a joy!

We are first time dog owners and wanted to make sure that we purchased the right dog for our family. We couldn’t be happier with Carmel. She’s the sweetest dog and she’s quickly become part of our family. Mike was the easy choice for a breeder. His first interest was learning about our family and he wanted to make sure that we would be good caretakers. He was very patient and responsive throughout the process and he provided a wealth of knowledge. He continues to follow up with us and is always ready to answer questions or provide recommendations. Everyone who meets Carmel comments on how well trained and calm is. We couldn’t recommend Mike more highly! There’s no one who’s more committed than him.

Working with Mike was nothing short of fabulous. His dogs are well breed, cared for, trained, and loved. He treats every puppy as his own. I really appreciate that he checks in on how our pup is doing, and he’s always there if we have questions or guidance. Wonderful experience.

Our pup is the most adorable! He is so loving and cuddles ! He has made such a wonderful difference in our household His pleasant nature and intelligence is exactly what we wanted !

We had a really good experience getting our Labradoodle puppy from Mike. Excellent communication and follow ups as well. I reach out to Mike to get his opinion about taking care of my puppy from time to time. He is always prompt to respond and shares his knowledge. Overall a topnotch breeder.

Our experience was exceptional!!! The breeder, Mike Martinez , was truly great. Was very thorough in his work explaining the dogs lineage, how he trained the dog, complete look at vaccines, the dogs DNA, we were with him for 4 hours and it was totally worth while. We love our dog LEO, and can highly recommend this person and his business.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Mike! We brought home our F2 Labradoodle, Daisy, and she has been an absolute joy from day one. Mike raised her for 8 months before she came to us, and the care and dedication he put into her upbringing is evident in every way. Daisy arrived already crate trained, which made the transition into our home so much smoother than we ever expected. She is calm, confident, and incredibly even-tempered — a true reflection of the time and effort Mike invested in her early socialization and development. What really sets Mike apart is his commitment to responsible breeding. He provided full genetic testing of both parents, giving us complete peace of mind about Daisy’s long-term health. It’s clear that Mike genuinely loves Labradoodles and Labradors — this isn’t just a business for him, it’s a passion. He truly cares about the breed, the dogs he raises, and the families they go to. If you’re looking for a healthy, well-adjusted, thoughtfully bred Labradoodle, look no further. Mike is the real deal, and Daisy is living proof of that every single day.

We recently took home a chocolate lab from Mike. We did extended training with him and didn’t bring our puppy home until around 4 months. Mike did an amazing job with his training - he is amazing with commands and the use of his crate. Numerous people tell us what a good puppy he is! I would highly recommend Mike. Very knowledgeable of the breed, training, etc. thank you Mike!

We got a furever puppy from Mike a few weeks ago, and very happy about it. It is our first puppy and we didn't know where to start and what to expect from it. Mike was very attentive to all of our questions and he took time to explain everything we needed to know to transition from having no pup to a new, exciting life with our little guy. Even after we left his house with our puppy, I still had some questions. Texted Mike and he responded quickly with answers. Mike takes a very good care of his pups. He has a huge backyard space just for them to run around and have fun. He does DNA and orthopedic testing, all appropriate vaccinations etc. If you're planning to adopt a pup, I recommend this place with all five stars. Thank you Mike! You're one of a kind 🙂
