Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies Chicago

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!

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. 🐶🐶💙💙

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.

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 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
