I'm Christy C., the breeder behind Atomic City Doodles located in Kuna, ID. Our puppies are nurtured within a loving family environment. Each puppy participates in an advanced therapy dog curriculum, fostering exceptional social skills and a gentle temperament. Our program is intentionally small, allowing us to provide each puppy with individualized care and attention.
Q. & A. with Christy
Why did you start breeding?
For many years, I've harbored a dream of breeding exceptional dogs. However, I patiently waited until I discovered a breed that truly ignited my passion. Throughout my life, I've been blessed to share my home with a variety of wonderful dogs, including purebreds, shelter rescues, and even strays. Each furry companion has enriched my life in unique ways.
What makes your program special?
Our commitment to well-rounded Bernedoodles begins early. We implement age-appropriate puppy enrichment programs starting when puppies are 3 days old. We carefully introduce a variety of sounds and scents, exposing puppies to the world in a positive and controlled manner. This builds confidence and prepares them for different environments they may encounter throughout their lives.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include medium and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include tri-color, phantom, and blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
