Q. & A. with Destiny
Why did you start breeding?
My mother in law started raising labradoodles back in 2007 and when my husband and I met in middle school I fell in love with labradoodles! 10 years later after we got married we knew doodles were the only dogs for us. We began researching and working to create our own program. We work closely with amazing groomers, trainers, and quality vets. Our doodles are a family passion.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are proven to produce therapy and service quality puppies. We have been blessed to be able to help change lives through our dogs. Even our pet puppies are the highest quality. We raise our puppy on a multitude of curriculums to prepare them for their futures such as early scent introduction, early neurological stimulation, puppy culture, and more.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Labradoodle puppies include miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Cockapoo puppies are mini size. Australian Labradoodle puppies include miniature and medium sizes. Goldendoodle puppies include miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Labradoodle puppies include red, apricot, cream, chocolate, cafe, lavendar, black, blue, and silver. Cockapoo puppies include red, cream, and buff. Australian Labradoodle puppies include merle, black and chalk, caramel, apricot, cream, chocolate, cafe, lavendar, black, and blue. Goldendoodle puppies include cream, apricot, red, chocolate, black, and phantom. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Litter update on 28 Feb •…Today truly could not be a better day for Puppy Picks! ☀️🐾 We officially set up one of our outdoor puppy pens, to be able to alterbate letting Lemon and Daisy's puppies to go outside. This also means our families coming in person today can meet their babies in the sunshine! Last week was still so chilly that we were all cooped up inside when we did picks for Daisy's puppies, but today feels like the perfect fresh start. (Just in time for more cold weather to come tomorrow 😫 Indiana weather is crazy) we are going to enjoy this sunshine to the max. While the ground outside is still too cold and damp for tiny puppy paws, we are doing a soft launch of our potty box using Fresh Patch grass. 🌱 Our petite Goldendoodles are still too tiny for our regular large potty box system, but this gives them the opportunity to: • Feel and smell real grass • Begin associating grass with potty time Early exposure matters so much in those first weeks — especially for our families who want a smoother transition home. Bred with Purpose. Raised with Integrity. 🤍 – Dessie’s Doodles

Litter update on 26 Feb •…How are these four still available?! We currently have four mini Cockapoo boys still looking for their forever families — and they are absolute sweethearts. With their temperaments, coats, and in-home raising, we’re honestly surprised these boys are still here. We already have a puppy family scheduled for delivery up toward Chicago, so we’re able to offer discounted delivery to Northern Indiana and the Chicago area for any approved families who join that route. This helps reduce transport costs for everyone involved and makes bringing your puppy home even easier. 📍 Located in Connersville, IN 📅 Go-home starting March 21st 📞 765-698-8887 🌐 dessiesdoodles.com If you’re located up north and have been thinking about adding a Cockapoo to your family, now is a great opportunity to bring one home with discounted transport while spots on this route are still available.

+7Getting a Puppy Getting a puppy was one of the most impulsive decisions I’ve ever made—one of those choices that comes straight from the heart before the head has time to catch up. I kept thinking about my kids and how I wanted them to grow up with a dog: a companion to play with, care for, and make memories alongside. What I didn’t expect was how much this little dog would end up being for me, too. From the moment we connected with Dessi’s Doodles, everything felt right. The process was so smooth, so reassuring, and honestly… so much fun. They guided us with kindness, answered every question, and set us up for success long before our puppy ever came home. And then—there he was. Soft, warm, wiggly, and perfect. We still can’t get over his temperament. That was our top priority, and somehow we got a dog who feels like he was handpicked for our family. Sweet, gentle, playful, and eager to love—he fit right into our world as if he’d always been part of it. This little impulsive decision has brought more joy and happiness than we ever expected. Watching the kids laugh, play, and bond with him warms my heart every single day. But quietly, in moments no one else notices, he has healed pieces of me too. His presence is calm. His affection is grounding. And his loyalty feels like the perfect reminder that sometimes the best decisions truly are the spontaneous ones. Our family is fuller, happier, and more connected than ever. And we owe so much of that to Dessi’s Doodles—and to the sweet dog who has already become part of who we are.

The experience with the breeders was top notch and would recommend using them if you want a well bred and healthy pet / family member to your home. They are very caring and loving to the animals and definitely provides tips and training to make your experience one that will last for the life of your pet.

Destiny was great to work with! She was very responsive to all of my questions and flexible with scheduling a pick up time to bring home our boy! She sent us home with a bag with all of his information and a blanket with his mom's scent. You can tell that Destiny truly cares about her pups and works on early training. Our boy, Waylon adjusted easily to our home and has been doing wonderful with potty training and crate training. He is very socialized as well. I highly recommend Dessie's Doodles!

Kipper has instantly become a part of our family. He loves playing with his big brother Maverick, which has exceeded our expectations. Kipper has learned a lot including his name, sit, touch and give paw. Kipper really enjoyed his outing to Home Depot this week. We are still working on potty training but he is perfect!!!

Destiny was so responsive and so informative when it came to any questions we had. She made sure we were properly prepared and ready for our new best friend. The experience picking him up went super smoothly and she provided all of his records and a puppy starter kit. Bennett (formerly candy corn) is settling in super well and he is so smart! We are so thankful to have had such an amazing experience!
