Meet the breeder
I'm Michelle H., the breeder behind Backcountry Doodles located in Lyman, WY. We love breeding dogs and caring for their puppies as a dedicated family hobby. Each pup is raised with patience, early litter-box training, and daily socialization. We focus on giving them confidence, comfort, and all the love they need to thrive in their new homes.
Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
I got into dog breeding because I genuinely love animals. It’s meaningful, rewarding work, and it also provides great opportunities for kids to learn responsibility, compassion, and respect for animals.What makes your program special?
My breeding program is the best because every dog is treated like family. Puppies grow up in a caring, kid-friendly environment, receiving plenty of attention, early training, and socialization to give them the best start in life.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Goldendoodle puppies include petite and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Goldendoodle puppies include sable, apricot, red, phantom, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
