Meet the breeder

I'm Tonya, the breeder behind Crystal Ridge Doodles located in Omro, WI. Our parent dogs and puppies live in our loving home. They are part of the family and are treated as such! Temperament, health, structure, and sound minds are of the utmost importance to us. Breeding healthy, well-socialized puppies for families like yours is our passion. Ask about our puppy curriculum.

Q. & A. with Tonya

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My parents were hobby breeders. This was the beginning of a forever lasting love and journey of breeding.
  • What makes your program special?

    Quality (this includes structure, sound minds, health) and temperament are very important to me. Our puppies make great companions as well as therapy and service animals. I do hours of research to ensure I am getting a dog from a lineage that will produce that. I use AKC Australian Shepherds from champion confirmation show lines to produce more laid back Aussiedoodles. The love and care I put into raising these puppies for you isn’t all too common. I incorporate the Puppy Culture program.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include mini and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include blue merle, red merle, black tri-color, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

    It went great with Tanya. She is a kind person and you can tell she takes care of her dogs very very well. We had a very nice transition and we love our new little puppy. She brings us a lot of joy.

    We had a great experience with Crystal Ridge Doodles. Tonya was very responsive from the the first message to after delivery. We used Tonya's flight nanny to transport Zoey from WI to SC and the whole process was super easy. The flight nanny was great and kept in touch with us every step of the way. Zoey (formerly Winter), has been such a joy and is great with our kids as well as other dogs. She has adjusted very well to our household and we couldn't be happier.

    I cannot say enough good things about getting a puppy from Tonya. I was initially very hesitant about purchasing a dog out of state and never meeting him but I honestly do not believe I could have picked a better puppy if I had met them In person first. She listened to our story, asked about our family dynamics and told us about the different personalities of her puppies and which one was thought would suit best to our family but ultimately let us make the finally decision. She was so responsive to all of my questions and you can tell she is truly concerned about making sure her puppies go to good families which was such a relief. She was so helpful and flexible to help us get our puppy home. After just 5 days my husband and I have already said if we decide to get Max formerly Macchiato a friend we will not even look anywhere else. We will for sure use Tonya again in the future and would recommend her to all our families and friends. Max has fit right into our family so well. You can tell he came from a loving home. He has the most loving and playful personality. He displays all the wonderful characteristics of his breed. You can tell he is going to be very loyal and smart and so receptive to training already.
