I'm Cindy T., the breeder behind Cindy Totten located in Coles County, IL. Our dogs are loved on and cared for with a focus on obedience and fun times on the family farm. I fell in love with the charming and calming personality of the Goldendoodle and want to share this love with others.
Q. & A. with Cindy
Why did you start breeding?
I started raising and showing Yorkshire terriers in 1974. Now, I breed Goldendoodles for pets.
What makes your program special?
Our puppies and dogs are raised in our home with constant family exposure which includes the fun of grandchildren. I own my own business (gift shop) and am able to bring the puppies to work with me for lots of enteractions and snuggles with the customers.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are medium size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
