What people say about us

[What was I most afraid of?] Making sure the breeding dogs and puppies came from a safe, ethical and caring place. We were very reassured of this after visiting the Riverina property. It was clean and well maintained. All the dogs and puppies appeared happy, healthy and well cared for and the staff were extremely friendly, caring and more than happy to spend as much time as we needed showing us around and answering all of our question..”

I was thrilled with the professionalism of the staff at banksia park. From the selection of our little girl to purchasing and collection. Ally was terrific and answered any questions that I had on pick up. Maggie has settled in brilliantly. She is so placid and gentle and has not cried at night at all. I’ve had many dogs throughout my life and I expected a few sleepless nights but she has been brilliant. Approaching 10 weeks and almost toilet trained. The whole experience has been fantastic. Thankyou so much..”

Our experience with Banksia Park Puppies was outstanding from start to finish. As a family, we discussed the temperament, size, colour, and breed we were looking for and shared this with Matt. He thoughtfully shortlisted two puppies for us, and we were thrilled to choose our beautiful Gracie.

Just one week in, Gracie has already brought so much joy to our family and truly makes our hearts smile—even our 13-year-old Cavoodle is warming to her.

We would also highly recommend Ian, the dog trainer, whose knowledge and practical guidance have been invaluable. His insights have helped set our puppy up for life and taught us so much along the way.

Thank you to the entire team at Banksia Park Puppies for such a wonderful, seamless, and positive experience. Kind regards,
The Bretherton family.

We are delighted by our new groodle. Very much a puppy in his enthusiasm (eg, in playing fetch, which he cottoned onto very quickly) and very affectionate, which is lovely.

He’s an intelligent little fellow who has made an impressive start to his toilet training and adapting to his new environment. For example, he mastered the doggy door (both in and out) after only one demonstration!

When we took him to the veterinary clinic we will be using, to introduce him to the process of going to the vet, he took it all in his stride – not at all fussed with the experience at all. In fact, we were chatting with the vet in his office and he was lying at our feet totally calm – almost going to sleep. The vet commented on his calmness.

We are confident he will grow into a wonderful dog for us both.

We couldn’t be happier with our Cavoodle puppy from Banksia Park! He has the loveliest nature and has settled into our family so easily. The team at Banksia are wonderful! Couldn’t recommend enough.

Highly recommend Banksia Park Puppy! Our puppy is healthy, playful, and adjusted quickly. Grateful for such a smooth and caring experience

Banksia puppies made the process smooth and flawless. For a first time pet owner, the support Ally provided to settle us in and help with all our queries regarding our little pup was very helpful.
Response from the owner:Hi Aditya, thank you so much for your review! We’re so glad to hear it was a smooth process for you with your first pet – good luck with it all we cant wait to hear more as your pup grows!

We recently picked up our beautiful puppy Archie from Banksia Park Puppies and couldn’t be happier! The customer service was absolutely excellent from start to finish. The facilities were immaculate—clean, professional, and clearly well cared for.

Archie came with all the required information, and the follow-up support has been amazing. It’s clear they genuinely care about their puppies and the families they go home to. Highly recommend!

Response from the owner:Hi Kelli thanks so much for taking the time to review! We’re so happy to hear Peppi (Now Archie!) has settled in so well with you. We really appreciate your feedback thank you!

Banksia Park are very professional and we love dealing with them. We now have 3 gorgeous Cavoodles who we love and adore.
Response from the owner:Oh thank you Wendy we’re so glad your new addition is doing well! Thanks for taking the time to review us!

Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to review us!

Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to review us Cam!

I got my Isaac (mini Groodle) as a puppy in 2020 and my Java (KC Cavalier) in 2021 retired Mum from BPP. Happy and healthy dogs, no issues. Extremely professional and trustworthy breeders who really care about their dogs. Highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for reviewing us Esther! So lovely that you got both a groodle and one of our rehoming mums!

I did A LOT of research before getting a puppy, as I didn’t want to support a questionable breeder and end up with heaps of health issues. After a recommendation from a colleague we landed at Banksia Park, but it was still important to me to check it out myself, so we made the trip out to Gippsland before committing to a dog. Everything I saw and everyone I spoke to gave me so much reassurance that we went home with a little spoodle puppy and we couldn’t be happier; in fact it feels like we hit doggy jackpot!
He has been with us for 6 months now and he’s the best! Calm, intelligent, super loving and very friendly – nothing but a delight for the whole family, which I also put down to Banksia Park’s socialisation efforts. So thanks everyone at Banksia Park, we love our puppy like crazy!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much! We really love it when people review us who have seen our property in person – it means so much to us thank you. We’re so glad he is going so well with you!

Response from the owner:Thanks so much for taking the time to review us Natalie!

We purchased Louie, our Spoodle, from Banksia Park Puppies on May 8th, hesitant after losing our beloved Spoodle two years ago. However, Louie has quickly become an integral part of our family. He’s smart, gentle, and adored by our kids. Banksia Park Puppies impressed us with their excellent communication, friendly staff, and regular check-ins post-purchase. Visiting their farm, we saw firsthand the care given to all puppies, ensuring they are well looked after. We highly recommend Banksia Park Puppies to anyone seeking a loving and well-cared-for puppy. Regards Smethurst Family.
Response from the owner:Hi Teagan, thanks so much for your review. It’s so great to hear from people who have visited us first hand we really appreciate you taking the time to write a review! Thank you!

We bought our Groodle puppy beginning of this year and he has been settling in with us for a couple of weeks now. I can’t thank Banksia Park Puppies enough for all the help in getting prepared and be informed about picking a puppy and what would be the best for us. We love our boy and banksia park for giving us the opportunity to have one of their beautiful puppies
Response from the owner:Oh he is so cute!! Thank you for taking the time to review us! We’re so glad to hear he is going well with you and settled in so well.

The purchase of our beautiful boy Ralph was so easy. He’s a beautiful boy. Arrived house trained and is perfect. The team at Banksia Park are so helpful. Looking forward to getting another puppy from you in a couple of years
Response from the owner:Oh he is gorgeous! Thank you so much for the review Nikki!

If I could give more stars I would. I have been gifted with two Banksia Park Puppies and they are my babies. Now aged 13 and 6 they are the best of friends and the love of my life. From before getting my puppies Banksia Park Puppies were happy to answer any questions, always available to give advice and provide excellent health guarantee. Picking the puppies up they were straight away extremely social, adventurous and loving. They have both been by my side since the day I got them through lots of medically issues and provide me with reason to get up each day. They are so in tuned with me and what I need – from cuddles in bed, company on a walk, sharing a drink at coffee shop or chasing around the park I could not ask more of them. Thank you Banksia Park Puppies for providing me with the 2 most amazing 4 legged family members!
Response from the owner:They’re so cute together! Thank you for the photos and for the amazing review. It’s so great to hear that you have two of ours and your experience was so good – thanks so much for reviewing us Katie!

Adding a second fur member to our family from the same breeder speaks volumes. Our joy with Orphie in March ’22 led us back to Banksia Park without hesitation in April ’24 for another fur baby.
When we brought Orphie home, his transition to new food was challenging, but Nick’s dedication and customer service was remarkable. He reached out even on a public holiday to check on Orphie, showing exceptional care and commitment.
Response from the owner:We’re so happy to hear your experience was so good that you came back last year for another one. We really appreciate the review thank you Helen!

My Paddy continues to delight. He is a Banksia Park Puppy.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for your review Chris!

Visited Banksia Park when we collected our gorgeous boy Barney. We were so pleased to see the excellent facilities and the care and love that is given to raising confident and social pups. Follow up care was above expectations. Thank you Banksia Park for our gorgeous boy. Highly recommended.
Response from the owner:Thank you Jan!!!

We bought our cavoodle in 2021 from BPP. We are from SA and drove to VIC to collect her, as during COVID pups weren’t being flown. Yes there is a high price tag but it is worth every cent. The steps that BPP take to ensure they are ethically breeding these pups really do show, including genetic testing, having lots of space for the dogs to run around, and having dedicated staff to socialise with the puppies. We knew what we were getting when we purchased our pup, that she was a first generation cavoodle, what her fur and temperament would be, and that she was healthy and ready to go to a loving home. Can’t fault BPP and recommend them to everyone. Thank you BPP for giving us our precious pup, we will be forever grateful!
Response from the owner:Oh that’s so amazing to hear Claire thanks so much for taking the time to write this 😀

We have had 2 amazing dogs from Banksia Park Puppies. From the moment you initially contact them to handover BBP are wonderful to deal with where nothing is too much trouble. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
Response from the owner:Gorgeous photos – they look like besties! Thanks so much for taking the time to review us Jane.

3 cavodles 12 yrs old fit healthy no problems due to great breeder. will come back in near future
Response from the owner:Thanks for reviewing us Scott! I’m so pleased to hear this! That’s amazing that they are so healthy I’m so happy to hear this.

After losing my first puppy from a different breeder I was so happy with service, advice and letting me know when my ideal puppy would be available. They have a great & easy process when purchasing my baby and are very helpful in answering any questions. I couldn’t be happier with my beautiful baby girl she is my world and mended by broken heart.
Response from the owner:Oh Kim that’s really sad that you lost your first puppy – I’m really pleased we could help you and that she helped mend you in a tough time.

I highly recommend Banksia Park Puppies. We have puppies from the families involved in this park since 1977. Our 4 dogs have always been affectionate, friendly (visitors only come to visit them). Gidget has shown me so much care and affection since my husband died, I find it almost believable. Should you be thinking about a new puppy, please don’t hesitate to check out Banksia Park Puppies.
Response from the owner:Thanks Dorothy! What an amazing time span – to have had puppies from us for nearly 50 years! I’m so glad Gidget has brought you alot of love. We hope Gidget continues being that rock for you for a long time to come.

Our beautiful loving funny guy Dennis is 2 and a half now
Such an easy adoption process
Couldn’t be happier 💙
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to review us Kim! Gorgeous photos! We’re glad to hear he is well!

Choosing an ethical, reputable breeder was really important to us so we spent 18 months researching and decided on Banksia Park Puppies. And aren’t we glad we did! In May 2017 we brought home our big girl, cavoodle Evie May and in June 2018 we brought home her full sibling, sister Mia Rose. These girls are the light of our lives and quite literally the best thing we’ve ever done. We’ve been down to tour the facilities twice and could not fault them. Any questions, help or advice and they’ve always been willing to help. We’ve even been fortunate enough to connect with some of their siblings and have made life long friendships with regular catch ups for the puppers (and us!). Evie is now 8 and Mia will turn 7 next month. Thank you BPP for the most wonderful, cheeky, well adjusted, beautiful little girls.
Response from the owner:Thank you Sharon. You and Chris have been so great in our family group and we love seeing all the things you all get up to 😀

I cannot recommend Banksia highly enough. I have had dogs my entire life, and I adopted our Cavoodle Luna through Banksia in January. They answered every question, went out of their way to help, followed up post taking her home and provided loads of value and take-home products.
And – Luna is the most socially confident, well-bred, smart, gentle, healthy dog I have ever had.
Banksia really cares, I cant recommend them highly enough.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much – Luna is adorable and we love the pink Banksia Park Puppies lead she’s wearing too! Thanks again for taking the time to review us.

Our dog was socially aware when we got her and still enjoys interaction with all dogs and humans. Great job preparing puppies for their new homes.
Response from the owner:Thank you Jane we really appreciate you taking the time to review us!

I have had my dog from Banksia Park Puppies for 10 years and i can honestly say she is the best dog i have owned and at the age of 74I have had many pets over the years. Her nature is so laid back, she wants to be with me, loves car rides, loves playing ball and tug of war!
Response from the owner:Thank you Sue! Its so wonderful she has been so great with you!

Great service and wonderful pup with a great temperament. Finnegan is the smartest dog Ive had and was a dream to train. He’s also bloody gorgeous 🐶🤩
Response from the owner:Oh look at him! Super clever and adorable – thanks Leanne we appreciate you taking the time to review us!

Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to review us Laura!

Lovely, friendly people always there to assist one. Thank you for my beautiful girl Blossom. She is going through her testing period as an adolescent. Looking forward to her adult years. She is my life.
Response from the owner:Hi Kelly thank you so much for taking the time to review us! Blossom looks gorgeous! The adolescent phase is difficult isn’t it!

100% would recommend Banksia Park Puppies to anyone looking for a new puppy. They are some of the nicest people I have ever spoken to and the company is very open about their breeding practices. I love that after a mother dog has “retired” from breeding, they allow for the mums and dads to be adopted too, rather than just discarding them at a shelter like other breeders.

My puppy Simba is the light of our lives and am very grateful for the amazing temperament he has☺️

Response from the owner:Thanks so much for the review! We put lots of effort into our rehoming program and it’s so nice to hear that it is noticed 🙂

Response from the owner:Thanks so much for taking the time to review us!

We got our new little fur baby from Banksia Parkin Jan and could not be happier. We lost our other little man ALMO on 28 Dec 2022 of 17 years never will be forgotten in a sandstone urn in our hallway , He had an amazing life very spoilt & filled with such love & joy and when he passed we were
Inconsolable such heartache. So we Decided we had to get another member to our family so we picked out MILO what a beautiful soul just now 6 months old and keeping us on our feet and again so spoilt but worth every little inch thank you Banksia Park for a brilliant experience picking out our boy Milo

Response from the owner:Oh we’re so happy to hear your story about Milo. Bringing love after a loss is such an amazing thing and we are so glad to hear he is keeping your home filled with love! Thank you so much for taking the time to review us 😀

Brilliant handover of our fur baby. So happy . He settled straight away and even beginning to know his name after 24 hours! Smart little fellow.
Response from the owner:Oh Jackie we’re thrilled to hear this! Thank you so much for your review. We can’t wait to hear how he settles in the future 😍

Response from the owner:Thanks for reviewing us Anthony!

Response from the owner:Thanks for reviewing us Morry!

An extremely caring and ethical breeder. Their dogs have such sweet and gentle temperaments which reflect the caring environment they are raised in. I would have no hesitation in recommending BPP to anyone.
Response from the owner:Hi Phil, Thank you so much for your amazing review. We love that you have some of our gorgeous rehoming mums and we are thrilled to know they live in your loving care 😀

After losing our family dog of 12 years, we were ready for a new pup for the kids to enjoy.
From the very beginning Nick was supportive in us choosing the right puppy for our home in Adelaide. We found our girl and she settled in straight away in our home.
During her puppy vaccinations our local vet picked up a heart murmur and at first I hesitated that we’d invested in a pup with a problem. I rang Nick and straight away he agreed we needed to get a scan to check. Banksia paid for this scan.
Unfortunately the scan confirmed she had a Patent Ductus Arteriosus (a heart valve hadn’t closed over when she was born and without a simple, but expensive surgery, she’d only live a few years).
We thought we would be on our own to pay for this surgery and so I gave Nick the news. He was so supportive, again! He came back to me straight away giving me all the options for us to choose from, but amazingly, one of those options was for Banksia Park Puppies to pay for the entire surgery. So although there was some strict recovery on our behalf, we were so comforted to know Nick and BPP were behind us all the way.

Of course nobody wants to buy a puppy with a problem, but this was such a random issue and within a week of surgery, Daisy was back to her cheeky little self and other than stealing socks, she’s so well suited to our house.

I couldn’t recommend Nick and Banksia Park Puppies more highly! They’ve been supportive from our first enquiry, throughout the surgery, recovery and payment and afterwards. After buying our first dog from a pet shop all those years ago, I didn’t expect the service and care from a breeder like this. Thank you Nick!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to review us. We really hope that all our customers feel so taken care of, we hate it when things go wrong with your puppy. We like to do everything we can to help this go smoothly and we really appreciate you taking the time to let us know you felt supported through this process. Thank you again for your review!

Our beautiful puppy has just turned 3 and she is a much loved, and intelligent member of the family. Interestedly she was an accidental cross with a Moodle and Cavalier – we feel privileged to have this accidental member of the family. Great support with the link to the Boronia Vet too.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your lovely review and photo! Her colours are gorgeous 😀
