Q. & A. with Lara
Why did you start breeding?
When I was a child, our family bred Cocker Spaniels. When my own children were young, we rescued older dogs who were already spayed or neutered. I knew once my children were grown and I had more time, I wanted to breed dogs. Once I fell in love with Goldendoodles, and then Poodles, I knew they were the dogs I wanted to share with other families.What makes your program special?
We love our puppies from the time we plan a breeding. Our dogs live in our home and are a part of our everyday lives, so the puppies are also. With the help of my husband and son, each dog gets individual attention daily.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Poodle puppies are standard size. Goldendoodle puppies include petite, miniature, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Goldendoodle puppies include cream, apricot, red, chocolate, black, and phantom. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Ben’s Best Buddy stayed in contact with me throughout the entire process. The breeders were patient with me while deciding on which puppy to get and were quick to respond to any questions I had. I loved that they sent pictures of the puppies up until they went home.

Everything worked out perfectly! We were in town and my daughter found Lara. We quickly were able to make arrangements to meet. She was great!! Super flexible as we finished out our vacation. We were able to pick up Axel (who now answers to Rockie) He has been such a joy in our home!! He is enjoying West Coast life! So smart, so loving, just what our family needed after losing our 15 year old dog Duke.
