Meet the breeder

I'm Marnie A., the breeder behind Alvy's Poodles and Doodles located in Mckinney, TX. We strive to breed healthy and happy Poodle and Doodle pups that will make a great addition to your home!

We love on the pups in our home until they find their fur-ever homes!

Q. & A. with Marnie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We decided to start a breeding program because of our passion for these dogs. We have loved the entire process and are so glad to be able to provide other families and individuals with puppies that will bring tons of love and joy into their lives.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs are an integral part of our family and daily life. This creates the ideal environment for puppies. From birth, they grow in a secure, loving environment where they know that they matter to their family - that they have a purpose.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Poodle puppies are standard size. Goldendoodle puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Poodle puppies are parti. Goldendoodle puppies are cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
