Meet the breeder

I'm Amber W., the breeder behind Forever Grateful Doodles located in Shelby, NC. We will responsibly raise and train our puppies. The foundation of our breeding program starts with raising healthy and well-loved dogs. We aim to pass the same happiness of owning a quality-bred dog to our buyers.

Q. & A. with Amber

  • Why did you start breeding?

    It started with buying our first Bernedoodle, Ellie. We absolutely feel in love with the breed and knew we wanted to adventure down the breeding journey since we were already hobby farming and had plenty of space. We retained a female from her first litter, Charlie because we knew she was going to also be an excellent addition to the program. We continue to love the breed for their companionship!

  • What makes your program special?

    Thankfully, I have a wonderful mentor and we will be following information out of the Ultimate Badass Breeder's Guide and Puppy Culture to ensure the puppies get the correct exposure to sounds, handling and activities. We are capable and eager to produce confident and loved puppies. We will be the first to love and raise them knowing there is a family waiting.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include medium and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include 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.

    We adopted two of Amber’s sweet Bernedoodle pups and couldn’t be happier! Amber was super responsive and helpful through the whole process, always quick to answer questions and keep us updated. Our pups have the best temperaments so gentle, playful, and always eager to please. You can tell they came from a loving, well-cared-for home. Highly recommend!

    Amber so so incredible throughout this entire process! She was very responsive, answered all of our questions and was so helpful with everything. It’s so obvious how much she loves these puppies which made us so confident getting our puppy from Forever Grateful Doodles. I can’t recommend her litters enough!

    Amber was absolutely amazing to work with! From the very beginning, she was so kind, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions we had. We were interested in adding a Bernedoodle to our family, and after finding Forever Grateful Doodles on Good Dog, the entire process couldn’t have been smoother. Amber set up a video chat, showed us the puppy we were interested in, and took the time to explain everything about their dogs, their care, and what to expect. We’ve had our sweet girl for three weeks now, and we couldn’t be happier! She’s full of energy, incredibly smart, and has the sweetest personality. It’s clear she came from a loving, well-cared-for environment. Amber’s passion and dedication to her dogs truly shows, and it made us feel so confident and comfortable throughout the whole process . We’re so thankful to Amber and Forever Grateful Doodles! Couldn’t recommend her more!

    Amber was amazing to work with! She made communicating and meeting up super easy, and you can really tell she cares and loves the puppy’s. The puppy my family and I adopted is very smart as she learned many tricks within 4 days such as sit, paw, lay down. She also was very quick to potty and leash trains as she doesn’t pull on her leash when going on walks. These pups are extremely smart and easy to train!

    Amber is fantastic and helped me propose to my beautiful girlfriend of 8 years (now fiancé!)! From the start, Amber was incredibly responsive—sharing countless photos and videos that helped us truly connect with our puppy even before getting to meet her and our perfect puppy. Her beautiful farm and the warm, family-oriented environment clearly reflect the care and love she pours into raising well-behaved, affectionate puppies. We couldn’t be happier with our new addition and highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a genuine, caring breeder who pours her entire heart into her puppies. We could not be happier!
