Meet the breeder

I'm Carrie L., the breeder behind Doodle All Day located in Lapeer, MI. I live on my family’s 100-acre, 6th generation centennial farm. I have been breeding Goldendoodles since 2004. Health testing my dogs is of the utmost importance to me because I know what it is like to see a dog suffer from hip dysplasia. I realize that you cannot avoid every health issue but you can minimize them by beginning with healthy parents.

Q. & A. with Carrie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I was raised on a farm. I loved all the animals but I sending them off was so hard knowing where they were going. When I send my puppies off, I know that they are off to live loving and adventurous lives.
  • What makes your program special?

    I have been breeding Goldendoodles for over 15 years. I pride myself on the good health and temperaments of my dogs. I keep my breeding program small and personable. Many of my puppy families stay in touch with me long after they take their puppy home.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are medium size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
