    I am so happy with my new puppy from Dos. She is so sweet and easy going. I appreciate the care and attention she was given after her birth. Thanks also for crate training her. It was so easy for her to adjust to sleeping in a crate at my home (her new home). So thoughtful of you to post and message me pictures of her before the Puppy Pick Up day. I looked at the pictures repeatedly, anxious to get her. And thank you again for including a Start Up Tote with her information, a new toy, food for several days, and a blanket with her mothers scent. It is very obvious that Dos and Family care for their puppies. Thanks again. Michele and Daisy (purple collar)

    We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Dos&Co Kennels! From the very beginning, our communication with Dos was excellent—he was very patient to answer all our questions (and we had a lot!). It’s clear how dedicated they are to raising healthy, well-adjusted puppies and making sure they're matched with great families. Dos went above and beyond to meet us part of the way to pick up our puppy, Charlie. He also gave us a tote bag that included vaccination records, microchip details, food, treats, toys, poop bags, and a blanket that Charlie loves to cuddle. Our puppy is beautiful, happy, and a total cuddle bug. We can tell he was given the best start in life, and we’re so grateful for the care and thoughtfulness Dos & Co Kennels put into raising him. I took him to the vet yesterday for a checkup, and they said he's a good-looking pup, he's healthy, and is doing great. We've had Charlie for 4 days now, and I can already tell he will be an easy dog to train. He likes his crate and even slept the night on his second night with us. He's responding to his name and learned how to sit today! I highly recommend Dos & Co Kennels to anyone looking for a wonderful experience and a healthy, happy Goldendoodle puppy. Thanks, Dos! Working with you was an amazing experience!

    Dos was so responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. You can tell they really care about their dogs. When I reached out he promptly responded to all my questions and was very accommodating about when we were coordinating FaceTime to see the puppies we were considering. His dogs were very well behaved, although it is only day 2 you can tell he took time to train the puppy before we took him home. Very responsible breeder and would recommend to anyone!
