Meet the breeder

I'm Dana B., the breeder behind Dolly’s Doods located in Harrisburg, OR. We breed focusing on raising healthy, affectionate, and loyal companions. We health test, raise dogs on therapy dog curriculum, and potty + crate train. As a result of our efforts, we’re positive our puppies will become perfect family members or therapy dogs and add joy to your life!

Q. & A. with Dana

Why did you start breeding?
Dolly, the matriarch of our program, was so special and such an amazing therapy dog, my therapist friends wanted dogs from her. From our first litter, we’ve been thrilled to have almost half of our dogs in service or therapy, with so many more as ESA.
What makes your program special?
Our program is based on the following pillars: 1. Good genetics: extensive health testing 2. Temperament: puppies that calm easily, are ready for cuddles AND adventures. No aggression and quick self-soothing, high distress tolerance 3. Coat: low shed, easy care, single coated dogs, aiming for reds and apricots 4. Raised in home, with love: constantly attended to by kids, adults, and elderly
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are medium size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream, apricot, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Miley has been enjoying the spring weather - maybe a bit too much! She had her halfway vet check last week, and all is looking healthy and normal! We’ll have an xray on March 24 to check for approximate number of puppies she’s carrying, in preparation for her due date of April 1! She’s starting to really show and enjoying all the extra calories she’s getting.

Miley is a perfect example of why we love goldendoodles! She is energetic and ready to hike, play, and go when it’s time, and also loves posting up on the couch and lounging about for cuddles. She’s attuned to our emotions, and is my constant companion. As a mom, Miley is attentive and calm, and loved playing with her babies when they got old enough to play.

Dana was the best! The puppies were so healthy and well adjusted to people. She answered every question about the litter. She showed real love for the puppies. She was so knowledgeable! Dana welcomed us into her home so we could get to know the puppies and the mom. Dana crate trained and started potty training which was a god send. I’ll tell anyone who wants a golden doodle, she is the one to see. Love my Norm! Thank you Dana and Ethan.
