Q. & A. with Kathryn
Why did you start breeding?
When I was in high school a close family friend had goldendoodles and I fell in love with the breed. Flash forward 10 years, I'm married to my best friend and we decided to add Remi, my mini goldendoodle, to our little family in the summer of 2022. She is such a a fun, adventurous loving dog and I want everyone to experience the joy she has brought to us!

Our puppies are petite size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include apricot and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

I would recommend Kathryn and her program to anyone looking for a mini goldendoodle! Reese (aka Clover) has been the perfect addition to our family for a month now and I have only positive things to say about my experience. Kathryn went the extra mile to answer any questions I had and was always quick to respond. She is very knowledgeable, and you can truly see the amount of love they pour into their pups through their in-home program. Their program sets the pups and families up for success once they come home. Reese has done excellent in every environment he has been in so far- car rides, vet visits, being around his kitty siblings, meeting new people, etc.- he does so good! He took to potty training so quickly, learns commands quickly, and he is the perfect mix of playful and cuddly. It amazes me every day how smart, silly, and loving my little guy is! I would choose Kathryn/Circle City in a heartbeat if I did it again! Thank you so much Kathryn for my happy and healthy pup!

Kathryn has been amazing through the entire process. She was prompt and helpful in hwr responses. She was very patient and understanding. She took wonderful care of Ruby and we are so blessed to have Ruby and to have gone with Circle City Pups. We highly highly recommend them.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
