Meet the breeder

I'm Maria W., the breeder behind Bellady's Shihpoos located in Rockledge, FL. It is exciting to see puppies grow from birth until they go home. The happiness the puppies bring to their new families is why I continue to breed. We host an annual Doodle Romp where our families and their pets have the opportunity to see their littermates and connect with other doodle families.

Q. & A. with Maria

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Breeding was introduced to me by my sister, the owner of Stormie's Doodles. I really enjoyed the experience. I enjoyed watching them grow, the interactions between Momma and babies, and them coming into their own personalities and temperaments. I loved seeing the colors our pairing produced and the joy the puppies bring to their new families.
  • What makes your program special?

    My dames and sires are checked yearly and health tested through Animal Genetics and Embark. I am a Stormie's Doodles Affiliate and we post weekly videos, weights and pictures of our puppies on our social media platforms until they go home. To help our new families, Trupanion's Go Home Day Offer provides free pet insurance for the first 30 days. Our puppies also come Microchipped.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Goldendoodle puppies include petite and miniature sizes. Shihpoo puppies include tiny and mini sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Goldendoodle puppies include sable, cream, apricot, chocolate, black, phantom, merle, and parti. Shihpoo puppies include merle, brown, gold and white, gold, brindle, brindle and white, black and white, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
