Meet the breeder
I'm Emma A., the breeder behind Cove Creek Companions located in Malvern, AR.

Each puppy is nurtured in a warm, loving environment, ensuring they receive ample attention, socialization, and care from the moment they are born.
Q. & A. with Emma
Why did you start breeding?
My breeding journey started with our beloved Bernedoodle, Oakley. I fell in love with her gentle nature and knew I wanted to raise puppies with the same amazing traits. I’ve put time and heart into learning, planning, and creating a program focused on health, socialization, and temperament—raising each pup in our home with love and care.What makes your program special?
What makes my program special is the intentional care each puppy receives from day one. They’re raised in our home—not a kennel—loved, handled daily, and exposed to kids, household sounds, and early training. We use ENS, follow a vet-recommended health plan, and offer lifelong support to each family. Our goal is healthy, confident puppies ready for forever homes.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and white and tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

I haven’t brought my puppy home yet, but I’ve had a great experience with this breeder so far. Their communication has been excellent—quick, clear, and very helpful. They’ve answered all of my questions and provided updates without me needing to ask. It’s clear they care about their dogs and about matching them with the right families. I already feel confident and comfortable with the process, and I’m excited for the next steps! I love that she sends updated pictures during the week.

Emma made this whole process super easy for me. She answered every single question I had and gave me all the knowledge to take care of my puppy. Emma truly cares about these puppies and their wellbeing. During the process of our puppy growing she consistently sent pictures as our little guy grew up. I have recommended Emma to my closest friends and family looking for Bernedoodles, she is absolutely amazing.
