Karla N.

Breeder of Goldendoodles

Meet the breeder

I'm Karla N., the breeder behind Cottage Doodles located in Lawrence, KS. These pups are raised in a loving home with lots of attention. I work with the pups throughout each day to teach them skills they will need to be happy with their new families and the new families will be happy with them. I want to make sure they are easy to train, well-rounded, and well loved.

Q. & A. with Karla

  • Why did you start breeding?

    25 years ago, I fell in love with a Yorkie pup and eventually bred her. With each litter, I learned more and more and realized how much you can teach a small baby to have it ready for a good life with its new family. I love seeing how eager the pups are to learn and how well adjusted they can be with the right guidance, no matter what the breed of dog is.

  • What makes your program special?

    Over the years, we often give dogs to family and friends so I can watch them grow up, and stay a part of their lives. I feel like I can keep learning about how to raise pups by watching the puppies I bred become adults. Sending a dog to a new home is a lifetime commitment, and I want my pups to be ready for their new life by preparing them to my best ability.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include petite, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include cream, red, chocolate, black, phantom, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
