Q. & A. with Susan

  • Why did you start breeding?

    It has been my passion since I was a child. When I grew up and got my first farm I started competing with my dogs and had some litters - always in my home from birth to go home. Concocting outings to keep my pups on top of the social game is always fun. Every day I learn new things and always try to focus on how to improve on what we do!
  • What makes your program special?

    My dogs are well socialized good citizens, pass their health testing, have wonderful conformation, and the babies go home and have our families always contacting us back with how amazed they are! My puppies are raised in the house and are well socialized with other dogs, cats, farm animals, children and the great outdoors. They're even exposed to the horses!
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Bernedoodle puppies include mini, medium, and standard sizes. Aussiedoodle puppies include mini and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

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

    They live in my home.

    I can’t say enough about the wonderful experience I’ve had with Susan and Doodle Dandy! Susan went above and beyond the answer my questions, send info and pics, and worked with me on a meeting place and day! She was totally invested in making Summit’s transition the best. I’m sooo happy with how socialized, happy, and well rounded Summit has come to me- a testimony of his puppy environment 🥰 thank you Susan!

    Agfter losing my 11 year old female maltese our house felt empty with a fur baby to cuddle and greet us when we came home. I was looking at Bernedoodle puppies to find a female near my home. I searched online and inquiries to breeders near me. Susan was a breeder who responded quickly and paired me up with the cutest female Bernedoodle named Skye. Skye has a loving a gentle personality and was easy to potty train. Susan kept me updated on the puppy's progress till the day I picked up Skye. Susan also provided treats and gifts which I very much appreciated her thoughtfulness. I would recommend this breeder to anyone looking for a new puppy.

    I highly recommend Doodle Dandy. Our experience with Susan could not have been better. She made the process so easy. She was so responsive and caring and kind. She shared in the excitement of bringing our new puppy home. We feel so lucky we found her through Good Dog.

    I want to write a review for Susan about our wonderful experience with her, her kindness, knowledge, and hospitality in letting us stay with her in our layover in bringing him home and getting to meet her and the other pups and see how she runs her program. Its clear in how she raises all her animals that she is passionate about raising happy and healthy furry friends for loving and ready families. She gave me my new love I didn't know I could have in Pepper. Below is Charles's message as well. Id like help curating mine and adding his after Susan runs a very well put together program and I can tell you this because I have firsthand experience. Getting a new fluffy addition to our family was an experience. Due to logistical issues, we ended up staying overnight on the farm and meeting not only our new puppy but Susan and her horses, chickens, cats, dogs, and more.It was an adventure I consider myself lucky to have been a part of. Thanks Susan! This is such a sweet review already—you’ve got the emotion and authenticity, we just want to polish it so it flows beautifully and hits all the key points without losing your voice. Here’s a curated version of your review + Charles’s message woven in naturally at the end: We had such an incredible experience with Susan from start to finish. From the moment we connected with her, it was clear how kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate she is about what she does. Due to some unexpected travel logistics, we ended up staying overnight on her farm during our layover while bringing our puppy home—and honestly, it turned into such a special and unforgettable experience. Getting to meet Susan in person, spend time with her animals, and see firsthand how she runs her program gave us so much confidence and appreciation for the care she puts into everything. It is so clear that Susan is deeply committed to raising happy, healthy, and well-loved animals. You can feel the love and intention in the way she cares for each of them. Meeting the other puppies and animals and seeing their environment firsthand made it obvious that they are being raised with so much attention, socialization, and heart. Most importantly, Susan gave me a love I didn’t even know I was missing—our puppy, Pepper. He has already brought so much joy into our lives, and we are so grateful to her for that. Susan runs a very well put together program, and we can confidently say that because we experienced it ourselves. Getting our new fluffy addition to our family truly became an adventure—one we feel lucky to have been part of. From meeting Susan to spending time on the farm with her horses, chickens, cats, dogs, and more, it was all something we’ll never forget. Thank you, Susan, for everything. We are beyond grateful.

    Susan was very responsive and helpful during the process of searching for and purchasing a puppy. She also was great sharing additional advice on food, training and vet care tips! An amazing caring and thoughtful personality. She is really passionate and thorough when it comes to hand over. Travel arrangements and making sure you have everything you need the first few days when welcoming your new pup. Would 100% recommend her to first time dog owners and seasoned dog owners as well. Just a fabulous experience, thank you Susan!

    Susan was great right from the start. She responded to our application very quickly and gave us detailed information and answered all our questions. Susan explained the process and let us know what we would need to do if we chose to continue with adopting Bentley (formerly, Happy, one of the Seven Dwarfs). It was an easy decision, as we were comfortable and at easy with Susan. She made arrangements to have a pet nanny fly with our puppy in the cabin of the plane to our home state in New York. Susan is an honest and caring breeder who has experience caring for animals, both as a veterinarian technician and at home on a horse farm. Throughout the whole process, communication was great. Susan was always available to answer our many questions and offer advice. Even after we had Bentley home with us, Susan followed up to make sure everything was ok. We would recommend Susan if you are looking for a well cared for and health puppy.
