I'm Erica B., the breeder behind E&A Doodle Barn located in Indianapolis, IN. We have health tested and carefully selected great temperaments in our parent dogs. We also keep a small program to ensure everyone gets all the love and attention they deserve. We also feature private whelping areas for mamas to have their space and privacy.
Q. & A. with Erica
Why did you start breeding?
I started breeding when I couldn’t find the perfect puppy for our family. I did thorough research to prepare myself and to be able to further understand and improve our program and be able to share the puppy love with others.
What makes your program special?
They will have appropriate vaccines and dewormings prior to going home. Weekly updates are sent and FaceTime is an option. We do send a supply bag home to help transition homes. Plenty of references stemming years if desired.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Erica was great, helpful, knowledgeable, and responsive. She helped bring Salem into our family. Salem is such a loving puppy. Our son is in love with him and wants to hold him all the time. Erica help get Salem ready with all the proper paperwork and vaccinations. He is such a good puppy. Our family is very grateful for Erica and helping raise Salem. I would recommend Erica to anyone who is looking for a golden doodle breed.
