Meet the breeder

I'm Eric L., the breeder behind Doodle Babies located in Statesville, NC. At Doodle Babies, we specialize in raising healthy, well socialized Mini & Medium Bernedoodles, Mini Goldendoodles, and Cavapoos in the heart of Statesville, North Carolina. All my parent dogs are genetically tested and puppies all receive a veterinarian wellness exam before leaving to their new homes.

Q. & A. with Eric

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When I was younger my mother used to breed Newfoundland's. We love providing families with their fur-ever family member as brings so much love & joy. I started to raise doodles due to allergies and them being allergy friendly. I now only raise doodles that are allergy friendly.
  • What makes your program special?

    Well not to sound biased, but I think my girls are what make it special. They all have amazing personalities and are amazing mothers to their puppies. They're also all genetically tested. I ensure all puppies are well socialized by introducing puppies gradually to other dogs, animals, and everyday noises to help them grow more confident and be ready for new homes.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Cavapoo puppies are toy size. Goldendoodle puppies are miniature size. Bernedoodle puppies are mini size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Cavapoo puppies include red and apricot. Goldendoodle puppies include cream, apricot, red, chocolate, and merle. Bernedoodle puppies include sable, black, black and white, tri-color, phantom, blue merle, and merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Eric was excellent to work with. He was super responsive and understanding. We were surprising our girls with our puppy and he was very understanding of our situation. He answered all of my questions (even the most basic ones) and sent pictures and updates of our sweet guy along the way. We are so happy with our sweet cavapoo puppy and glad that we worked with Eric! I would 100% recommend Doodle Babies and their puppies!

    We are first time pup parents and we had such a wonderful experience with Eric from beginning to end! I was extremely nervous taking this big step with my 12 year old daughter. She saw Peanut and feel in love with him! It was love at first sight. Eric answered all our questions whenever we reached out. He was very quick with his responses and made the process easy for us. Eric is extremely organized with having paperwork, medical records, foods, treats, bedding for the puppy, instructions when you take the puppy home and more! I highly recommend Eric for everyone’s puppy needs. I am grateful for Eric and his services. His puppies are well loved and taken care of by the way Peanut is with us. We couldn’t ask for a better puppy than our Sweet Peanut! He completed our family. Thank you Eric!

    We are in love with our sweet baby, Knox (Indigo). Eric met up with me on 11/30 at the Greensboro meeting point. Eric was very responsive, communicative and friendly. He provided all the info and immediate supplies needed to get baby Knox settled and situated. Knox is gorgeous, healthy, well socialized and the perfect snuggle bug. He is starting to explore his surroundings, loves to chase the chickens and being a bit mischievous in the cutest ways. Crate training and house training are going well. Our Vet gave him a perfect bill of health! Thank you, Eric!

    I had a fantastic experience getting my Cavapoo puppy from Eric. He was transparent, communicative, and always quick to answer questions. He kept me updated with photos and videos, and it was clear my puppy was being raised in a caring environment!! Eric also coordinated everything with the flight nanny, which made the pickup process so smooth and stress-free. My puppy arrived healthy, happy, and perfectly socialized. I’m so grateful for how seamless and supportive the entire experience was. Highly recommend working with Eric!
