    We had a fantastic experience working with Michelle and matching with Maple. The entire adoption process was smooth, well-organized, and communication was great throughout. Michelle spent time on the phone with us when we first reached out, welcomed us to come meet the puppies in person, and has been incredibly helpful in guiding us through food, training, and the best gear to get Maple to set us up for success with house training. Maple has been an amazing fit for our family. She is smart, well-adjusted, and clearly raised in a loving, thoughtful environment. She settled into our home right away and has such a great temperament. We’re so grateful for Maple and would absolutely recommend Central Valley Canine Companions to anyone looking for a wonderful puppy.

    Michelle was not only a wealth of knowledge when it came to doodle breeds, but she was everything you would want in a breeder. She was warm, kind, loving to all of her animals, and very encouraging. We left with our new pup feeling confident because she reassured us she would be there for any questions we might have in the future. And our sweet pup is the PERFECT fot for our family!!!

    Working with Michelle was easy and enjoyable! As first-time dog parents, we had tons of questions, and she was incredibly responsive — always taking time to provide helpful information and resources to prepare us for our new puppy. Our puppy came home healthy, well-socialized, and full of personality, which speaks to the care Michelle puts into her breeding program. The whole process was smooth and transparent from start to finish. We’re so grateful for our experience and highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a loving, responsible breeder.

    Working with Michelle was so easy, she is quick to respond to questions before and after picking your puppy. She is very knowledgeable with being part of a breeding family for most of her life. Our puppy is so smart, she has learned so many commands at the young age of 12 weeks. I am so glad we found Michelle.

    We are so grateful to Michelle for helping us through the process of becoming first time dog owners. She went above and beyond to help us learn about and select the perfect puppy for our family. Our pup is super friendly, great with kids and other dogs, and quick to learn anything we’ve taught her. We credit Michelle for loving her well and giving her an amazing start. We highly recommend Central Valley Canine Companions!
