Axel 31 lbs. – 19″ tall

Axel is a stunning dog, bred from Willow and Levi. I knew from the moment he was eight weeks old that he had so much potential. Knowing he would add a lot to my breeding program, I decided to keep him for myself.

Willow’s lines go back to Ginger – one of my oldest and most beloved golden retrievers. Ginger passed away in May 2015 at the age of 17. It was heartbreaking to lose a dog who meant so much to me and to the SwissRidge family, but I’m thankful to have had her for 17 amazing years. I’m so lucky to still be able to share a part of her through Axel.

A SwissRidge Doodle has several generations of my lines bred into them. I know this lineage like the back of my hand. They are a mix between my favorite breeds that I believe make the best family dogs. My clients can’t stop praising this breed for their affection, intelligence, and balanced energy level.

Axel is very smart, affectionate, and energetic. He loves to run and play fetch, but also loves to lounge at the cottage with his foster family. He makes everyone laugh every day. He is quite the character! You can often find him lying on his back in his “SwissRidge Doodle pose.” He is the best furry companion that anyone could ask for. He aims to please, and is so much fun to be around. He is known around the neighborhood as a teddy bear and his adoptive family are often stopped on their walks and asked what type of dog he is and where we got him! He has been trained off-leash and has completed intensive training with Lucas Mucha.

Axel thoroughly enjoys life and is out to have fun in anything he does. I think we can learn so much from how he interacts with other dogs and people. He is a real blessing to my breeding program and I’m so excited to share his amazing personality and beauty with all my clients. Axel is currently living with a foster family, but will come back to SwissRidge when it’s time to breed.
