Q. & A. with Stephanie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Our journey into breeding began with a genuine love for dogs and a desire to raise puppies differently. We wanted our dogs to be part of our family, not simply breeding dogs, and for every puppy to receive intentional care and a strong foundation. We focus on health, structure, genetics, temperament, and early development, thoughtfully matching each puppy with the family best suited for them.
  • What makes your program special?

    We believe a great family dog starts with a strong foundation. Our puppies receive ENS, ESI, socialization, grooming, handling, crate and potty training, desensitization, and foundational training. We intentionally expose them to everyday sounds, surfaces, people, &experiences to help them become confident companions. We also provide guidance & support to our families throughout their dog’s life.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Goldendoodle puppies include petite, miniature, and medium sizes. Poodle puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Goldendoodle puppies include cream, apricot, red, and parti. Poodle puppies are brown. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

    Stephanie was amazing. She FaceTimed "google duo'd cause we are android people" so we could see the puppies and let my son pick who his new best friend would be. Jack chose "charley" who is now named Finn Awoo Thompson. He is the perfect addition to our family!

    Stephanie helped us every step of the way. We visited the puppies in person and Stephanie addressed every question we had quickly! Daisy is such a joy!!! She is very smart, loves people, dogs, the outdoors, playing, cuddling and belly rubs. She even likes watching tennis with us. She makes us laugh every day!!!

    My experience with Designer Doodles has been amazing! I picked out one of the male mini-ausies by the pictures and names. When I went to see the puppies and explained to Stephanie my needs and the needs of my 7 year old Border Collie rescue, she recommended a different pup. Charlie has been the absolute perfect match for me and my Border Collie. We are now the perfect "family." Charlie has brought love and laughter to our home. He is a quick learner. He watches his big sister and follows what she models. He is very in tune with me and waits on me for the cues to do what is expected. Designer Doodles did a fantastic job of preparing him for entering our home and quickly acclimating to our busy life. They have prepared Charlie very well for his new life. You can tell how much they love each puppy and want to find the perfect home for them. They provide instruction and recommendations for the items needed to for making their life the best it can be. They are happy to answer any questions about raising your new puppy. If you are looking for a new fur baby, please visit Designer Doodles of South, GA before you go to any other breeder. I think you will find you don't need to go to any other breeder!

    We had such a wonderful experience getting our puppy from Stephanie and Lisa with Designer Doodles Of South GA! From the very beginning, the communication was excellent and you could truly tell how much love and care goes into raising these puppies. Our puppy arrived happy, healthy, and so well socialized. You can tell she was raised in a nurturing environment because she is already so sweet, calm, and confident. They kept us updated with pictures and information along the way and was always happy to answer questions. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our puppy came from someone who genuinely cares about their dogs and the families they go to. We are absolutely in love with our new family member and couldn’t recommend them more! Thank you for raising such amazing puppies and trusting us with one of your babies. 🐾 We love our Belle baby!!

    Stephanie is amazing. She drove all the way up to Pennsylvania to deliver our sweet Chloe girl. Her temperament is soo chill I had to make sure with Stephanie that it’s the normal temperament. She plays, sits on my lap, LOVES snuggles and was already half trained when she arrived. No regrets! Would recommend!

    I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Stephanie and her mom, Lisa. From the very beginning, they were incredibly kind, helpful, and responsive—providing every bit of information and paperwork I asked for without hesitation. It’s clear how much they truly care about their dogs and each litter they raise. They went above and beyond by starting training before adoption, which made a world of difference. My little girl, Bucatini (formerly Bentley-Bleu), came home already crate trained, potty trained, and even beginning to learn leash walking and basic commands! Bucatini has been the sweetest, smartest, and most well-tempered addition to my life. She comes to the office with me during the week and plays with her “coworkers,” and on the weekends she’s out meeting friends and family all around town. She loves people, is eager to learn, and has settled into her new life beautifully. I’m so grateful to Stephanie and Lisa for giving her such a strong foundation—it’s clear she was raised with love and care.
