Meet the breeder
I'm Hollie W., the breeder behind Desert Dawn Doodles located in Santa Clara, UT. At Desert Dawn Doodles, we raise happy, healthy Mini & Micro/Petite Goldendoodles in a loving family home. Our puppies receive early socialization and a strong foundation before joining their forever families. Each puppy is microchipped, dewormed, vet checked, & comes with a 2-year health guarantee.
Q. & A. with Hollie
Why did you start breeding?
I started my breeding journey helping a close friend with her program. She encouraged me to start my own, but I was busy raising my own six kids at that time. When we finally added a couple of breeding dogs as a family, we fell in love with raising puppies and have been dedicated to it ever since. Our blended family means even more people to love and socialize our puppies.What makes your program special?
What makes my breeding program special is our big family home filled with activity and love. With lots of children helping daily, our puppies are constantly socialized and exposed to real-life sounds, handling, and routines. They grow up confident, well-adjusted, and ready for family life through hands-on care, play, and early enrichment.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include petite and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream, apricot, red, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Program update on 03 July •…One of Blossom’s favorite games is carrying her ball to the top of the slide, dropping it down, and chasing after it. 💕 It’s one of those little moments that perfectly captures her playful personality.

Litter update on 18 June •…Storm and Duke’s “SpongeBob” litter of Micro Mini Goldendoodle puppies had a big milestone—their very first taste of puppy mush! We start by grinding up their food and mixing it into a soft meal to help them transition as they grow. Judging by those messy little faces at the end, we’d say it was a success… even if they wore almost as much as they ate. 😂 These sweet babies are growing more playful and full of personality every day, and we can’t wait to keep sharing their journey with you. Which messy face was your favorite? 🐾✨

+4Hollie was and is phenomenal as a breeder! She was quick to respond to my interest in her puppies. She answered all my questions, was never pushy or dismissive, and seemed like she truly loved her puppies and wanted them all in loving homes that were the best fit. From questions about her home setup to anxiety over the delivery, she never seemed aggravated with me. She went out of her way to get Bluey to us with as little travel as possible. She had a friend that she trusted fly with Bluey to an airport that was easier for us to get to and even messaged me many times with updates all along the way. The process was as painless as she said it would be. Bluey was even more beautiful in person. Hollie even sent her with a "suitcase" full of stuff to get us started, including food, toys, grooming tools, a blanket and a "baby book" containing all her specific information. We kept in touch ever since sending pics and videos of Bluey. Not only is Bluey absolutely beautiful, but she is extremely well-behaved for a 12-week-old puppy. We could tell that Hollie spent a lot of time with her. She was/is already using a potty pad successfully and is perfectly comfortable with her crate. Also, things that usually scare a puppy don't seem to faze her at all. Hairdryers and vacuums are just a curiosity for her lol. Bluey is the perfect companion to our 3 year old Yorkie and they are getting along fabulously. She is already so loved! I would absolutely recommend Hollie and Desert Dawn Doodles and wouldn't hesitate to contact her again : )

+8We can't say enough good things about Hollie at Desert Dawn Doodles. Hollie was so good and so helpful. She set us up with everything we needed for the first night, which made bringing him home easy. From the moment we picked him up, Bandit was a champ. We had a seven-hour drive home, and he was calm the entire ride. That told us right away how well Hollie had prepared him. He's well trained, well behaved, and clearly socialized so well. He's healthy, happy, and has settled right in with us. Thank you, Hollie, for everything you put into raising him. Bandit is the new love of our lives, and we're so grateful he came from Desert Dawn Doodles.

+4Hollie was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the entire process. It was clear that she genuinely care about the dogs and their well-being. She kept me updated regularly with footage and made sure I always knew how my puppy was doing. She also hand delivered my Luna to me to my nearest Airport I’m very thankful for that my husband is not so much into social media especially paying money he was a bit spectacle but Hollie made me feel so comfortable and I knew I could trust her. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a puppy she’s amazing
