Q. & A. with Carissa
Why did you start breeding?
In 2022, I found my Bernedoodle, Luna, and fell in love with doodles. I knew when I got her that I wanted to breed and spread the love of doodles. I spent months and months researching and preparing to breed Luna and knew I wanted to offer puppies that were unique and special. In 2023, we got Sydney, our Cockapoo, and have been anxiously awaiting her first litter.What makes your program special?
I focus on socializing the dogs to be prepared for all experiences in life. I have gone through the Puppy Culture program and have successfully raised incredible puppies who are well-equipped to handle all stresses and challenges they may come across, but most importantly, to be loving, obedient, and incredible little puppies.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Cockapoo puppies are mini size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Cockapoo puppies include buff and cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Cockapoo
About Sydney
Sydney is the silliest, most playful cockapoo you will find. She would play fetch all day if you had to energy to keep up with her. She loves her frisbee most of all and carries it around on her head. Her monkey is by far her greatest love. She sleeps with him and sucks on him like he is a pacifier. She is incredibly intelligent and loves her people so very much.

I couldn’t be more happy with my puppy! Carissa was amazing!! She was easy to communicate with and answered all of my questions. She went above and beyond to deliver me the perfect puppy. I would give her my highest recommendation for anyone who is looking for a cockapoo puppy. My family is so thankful to have our new addition, thank you Carissa!

+6Carissa made this the best experience. This puppy came with such a strong foundation in potty training, basic commands and is the sweetest little thing. Her care for these animals is clear to see with the whole process, she sent so many updates, answered all my questions and more. Her care package she sent with Honey was so special and thoughtful. I would never consider using another breeder after this experience. Thank you, Carissa- for everything you have done for this pup and experience. I can’t say enough how much it’s appreciated.
