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 🙂

Mike is amazing just as all the reviews state. To say he is a reputable puppy breeder is an understatement. Mike is experienced, trustworthy and caring. He loves and cares for these animals. I've learned a lot from him to better care for my new puppy. Mike is also there to support me and my puppy after. Mike is a treasure just like all the healthy and wonderful puppies he breeds. Thank you Mike! - Stacey and Semper (our new puppy)

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Mike and this breeding program. After losing my soul dog, getting another puppy felt emotional and overwhelming, and Mike showed me more kindness, compassion, and understanding than I could have ever expected. He was so patient with me through the entire process and genuinely cared about making sure we were ready and comfortable every step of the way. You can tell immediately that this is not “just a business” to him, he truly loves and understands his dogs. The amount of knowledge, care, and dedication he puts into raising his puppies is honestly incredible. I have never met or heard of a breeder who is this attentive, responsible, and passionate about what they do.
Our new puppy Jaxon is beautiful, healthy, well cared for, and already so loved. Mike made such a difficult chapter in my life a little brighter, and I will forever be grateful for that. If you are looking for a breeder who genuinely cares about their dogs and the families they go to, Mike is truly one of a kind. I would recommend him a thousand times over. ❤️

Mike is an amazing breeder and great to work with! He is very knowledgeable about the dogs and helpful with care after purchasing a puppy from him. I higjly recommend you work with him to find a lab for your family.

Mike made the whole process very easy and was great to work with and communicated the whole way through. He spent a good amount of time with us when we went to select our pup. He obviously spends a lot of time doing research and shared his vast knowledge with us.
We end up bringing home Marty and he is so adorable and a great addition to our family. We are in love with him!!

We worked with Mike to find exactly what we were looking for and found it all and more in "Connor". Amazing dog, gentle spirit with the athleticism of a gold medal gymnast. Well trained, obedientt and just an all around great dog. Working with Mike throughout the process was the hidden gem as his knowledge and experience shows with all he offers and moreso delivers. Thanks again Mike for making this an easy experience with an awesome Dog in Connor.

Just got our 3rd pup from Mike. Each one has been playful, smart, & a great addition to our family. Mike is very knowledgeable & helpful with the process and has been there for us to ask follow up questions. We highly recommend getting your pup through Mike.

We got a beautiful male Labradoodle from Mike 2 weeks ago. We can’t say enough good about both Mike and the Pup/ Murphy. He cares who gets his dogs and when you get them they are healthy and clean and all records and tests are in immaculate order. Our Vet even said, He is a wonderfully put together animal and he had nothing but praise for the folder we were given w/ all Murphy’s documentation. Murphy seems as smart as a whip and is learning the basic instruction and lead walking right by your side already at 3 months old. I can proudly say, Mike is the Best I have ever dealt with.

I cannot say enough about Mike or his puppies. When we went to see him, we originally intended to purchase a Labrador. Mike spent a lot of time with us talking about what we were looking for in a pet (e.g., personality, size, energy, shedding level, etc.). We ended up reserving an F1 Labradoodle. Mike also handled two stages of training for our puppy. He kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the training process and when we brought our puppy home with us, he was housebroken, crate trained, leash trained, and slept through the night. Even after we brought our puppy home, Mike has continued to check in and to be available when we have puppy questions. Our little guy is growing healthy and happy, which is unsurprising considering how much attention Mike pays to his puppies' breeding and genetics. Truly cannot recommend Mike more highly.

We had a wonderful experience with Mike as our dog breeder. He was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, taking the time to provide us with all the important information we needed before bringing our puppy home.
What really stood out was how much he truly cares, after we took our puppy home, Mike personally called to check in on us and see how our puppy was adjusting to the new environment. That level of support meant a lot to us and made the whole experience even more reassuring.
We highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a new furry family member. You can tell he genuinely loves and cares for his dogs, and it shows in everything he does.

Great people,we got our dog 3 weeks ago and Mike still helping with advises and check on him every few days.
Dog is healthy and happy you wont regret getting dog from Mike.

We love our little Cocoa! Mike is a careful breeder and clearly loves his dogs. He spent plenty of time talking with us and was supportive in helping us learn how to bet care for our new fur baby. She's been home for three weeks now and Mike is still staying in touch, giving us tips and offering support. We couldn't be happier with Cocoa or with Mike.

We searched many different breeders and finally were fortunate enough to stumble across Mike. We were looking for a slightly older puppy that was hypoallergenic, great with kids, and great with other dogs. We hit a home run with Maizey. We got her at ten months- she is incredibly well trained and well behaved thanks to Mike’s efforts. She has acclimated very well and is an important part of the family. Would highly recommend Mike to anyone seeking a dog. He cares about his dogs and his customers and has been a pleasure to work with. Taking all my will power to not call him up and ask for a second dog!

If you are looking to add a new fur baby to your family….look no more! We highly recommend Mike and Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies Chicago. Mike keeps you in the know from day one and still after a month is reaching out to check on our little man Maverick. We are so lucky to have Maverick in our life!!! Thank you Mike❤️

We had a great experience adopting our labradoodle from Mike. From the start, he was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. You can tell he truly cares about his dogs and takes pride in the quality of his breeding.

What really stood out was that he continued to check in with us after we brought our puppy home to make sure everything was going well. That level of care and support meant a lot and gave us a lot of confidence as new puppy owners.

If you’re looking for a responsible breeder who genuinely cares about both his dogs and the families they go to, I would highly recommend Mike.

My husband and I adopted a labradoodle from Mike and we are so happy we did! We left our puppy with Mike for a couple weeks for basic training, and that made it easier when we brought Ozzy home!! Mike is very easy to work with and he loves what he is doing!
All his dogs are well taken care and healthy and happy!!

We couldn’t be more excited to welcome ANOTHER amazing puppy from Mike @ Chicago Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies. Firstly, this is not a business, but a truly extended family. Mike ensures that families are educated and supported throughout the entire process of welcoming a dog into their homes. Then how about welcoming a second dog - he ensured that the personalities of the new puppy and current dog were well matched. His thoughtfulness is seen in every puppy that he breeds. Also having confidence in the overall health of our dogs because of Mikes commitment to DNA and orthopedic testing is great. If you are looking for a hypoallergenic, well-tempered, absolutely adorable lab or doodle look no further!!

We got our puppy from here. Overall, the experience was great. Mike was and still is very responsive. I had placed my deposit over a year ago but unfortunately, there were a few people before us in line for a female chocolate lab as well and we weren’t able to get her in the first litter. We did have to wait a few more months for the next litter but throughout, Mike was keeping me updated and answered any questions I had. We got to go meet our girl at around 4 weeks for the first time. And then, we picked her up at 7 weeks to bring home with us. Mike sent us individual updates and posted updates regularly on his business social media pages. Overall, it was an easy process and Mike was friendly and responsive throughout.

One just wasn't enough! We lost our beautiful Goldendoodle a few years back. She has several health issue's. When we decided it was time to get another dog we were very concerned that we might get another dog with health issues. It wasn't until we found Labrador and Labradoodles of Chicago that we learned about DNA and orthopedic testing. We adopted a beautiful little mini Labradoodle. We were so happy with her that we decided to adopt a second mini Labradoodle from Mike, best decision ever. Knowing they will live a long healthy life makes us so happy! Thank you Mike for all the work you put into breeding such amazing dogs.

We feel so lucky to have found Mike and Chicago Labs! We greatly appreciated how Mike handles the whole process from application to pick up - he really cares about his puppies and it shows! Mike has so much knowledge and his website has great details & tips. We are so lucky to have found our girl Mia💗

We adopted our moosey boy from Mike back in early Feb! Mike is very responsive and you can tell his pride is in his career, he loves his animals so much. Even weeks later he is still reaching out to check on him!
Moose had an accident and took an injury to his eye so he is blind in an eye, but other wise healthy and happy! We couldn't have asked for a better pup.

We wanted to surprise our kids with a puppy for Christmas and we didn’t know where to start. Went on google and started searching for golden and labradoodle breeders in the area. Labrador and Labradoodle puppies Chicago came up and it was the closest to our home. After going through the website and talking to Mike on the phone, we felt comfortable and very confident about his puppies. He is very knowledgeable, happy to share all the information, always available to chat and once we brought our puppy home he was always there to walk us through all the steps of adaptation for both our puppy and our family. Can’t believe we had Rollo for 2 months now, he is such a sweet boy, super smart and playful, very energetic and loving… He is just what our family needed.
Thank you Mike !
