Meet the breeder
I'm Kelly F., the breeder behind Dapper Doodles of Tennessee located in Morristown, TN. We’re a Goldendoodle hobby breeder. We health/DNA test both parents in an effort to produce healthy pups. We follow the B.A.B. Program. We love this breed so much and love having the opportunity to share them with others.
Q. & A. with Kelly
Why did you start breeding?
The very first time we snuggled our Goldendoodle puppy, Rosie, we were in love. The precious teddy bear face, soft hair, and loving demeanor were everything we wanted in our new family member! The sweet, friendly personality of a Golden Retriever and smart, easy to train, allergy-friendly Poodle genes made for an ideal dog for us. Our goal is to provide this same amazing breed for others to enjoy.What makes your program special?
We take our mission of producing healthy puppies, seriously! All parents in our program have been tested. We choose to raise our puppies following the B.A.B. Program so that our puppies are well socialized, even-tempered and emotionally resilient.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include medium and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
