TinkerBell, mom
Aussiedoodle
About TinkerBell
TinkerBell is our mini Blue Merle Aussiedoodle, born to Cali and Humphrey (Aug, 2021). We knew she was something special from the day she was born! Tinkerbell is a gentle, loving, energetic girl who makes friends immediately with everyone. She loves a good belly rub and the affection of her humans, especially the kids. She romps and plays with them at every opportunity - and its impossible to tell who is happier - Tink or the kiddos! 🤩 TinkerBell also loves play time with all her ‘siblings” in the house, with a good game of 3-way tug-of-war being her favorite. And those eyes! Look into her eyes and see that she is eager to please her humans. But, be careful. Those eyes will melt any ❤️ and get her the attention she wants. What a lover!

Joe and Jennifer helped us get our perfect little pup! They were so easy to work with, kind, and were very quick to respond to any questions we had. We just brought our puppy home today and he is the sweetest most beautiful puppy we have ever seen—and the best part, he loves to cuddle. We cannot thank Joe and Jennifer from Distinctive Doodle enough for everything and for giving us the best new edition to our family!

Distinctive Doodle was the absolute best to work with! They were around to answer any questions I had and helped my wife and I transition into first-time puppy owners! We adore our little Remi (and he came with some training done already). We would definitely recommend Distinctive Doodle to anybody looking for an Aussiedoodle.

Distinctive Doodle was great to work with! I was confident that I would get a great puppy! Puppies are born and cared for right in their home. They work very hard to expose the puppies to many different stimuli and situations. My pup even started crate training before I picked her up. I got pictures and updates through out the process and was even able to view my pup on a live web cam. Distinctive Doodle is a wonderful breeder and great to work with! I highly recommend them!!!

+6I’m going to fall short expressing my gratitude for everything Joe and his family have done to prepare Picabo Street aka ZENI to succeed! The amount of attention and experiences that Jennifer and her kids create for the puppies to grow, learn and love, created an amazing beginning to life. The puppy cam became my constant check in with the growing puppies. As the puppies grew older their play area became more and more advanced. The experiences created a foundation for exercise and problem solving. Jennifer and her family created a strong base for ZENI to move forward in her training and socialization. Communication and information on the puppies, parents and development was wonderful. As ZENI has been introduced to our neighbors and friends, they are all amazed by her CUTENESS, but even more by her bravery and smarts! I cannot recommend Distinctive Doodle enough! If you are looking for a new addition to your family, this is the breeder to go with!

I look forward to keeping in touch with Distinctive Doodle, they have been terrific. It is clear the puppies they raise have a loving home from the start. Benni my new puppy was raised with extreme care and it is clear he has received lots of socialization and exposure to various noises. I have never met such a calm and happy puppy. In addition to how well they treat the doggos they also did an excellent job of making me feel special. I received regular puppy updates and lots of photos of my soon to be puppy, as well as tons of advice as I prepared to take care of my first ever dog. I am grateful to distinctive doodle and I can’t recommend them enough!

Distinctive Doodles were so easy to work with. This was our first time getting a puppy from a breeder and they made the whole process simple and communicated through out it all.
