Meet the breeder
I'm Dawn H., the breeder behind Fruitful Beginnings,LLC located in Eagle, WI. Decided to start a breeding business on the principle a female dog should not be breed for sole purposes to profit but to contribute a high quality puppy for other to love for years to come. This means adhering to DNA testing and finding the most suitable male to breed with our female.
Q. & A. with Dawn
Why did you start breeding?
I was gifted money after my mom’s passing and decided to start my own business. After several years of research I found our Nora and waited for her to be emotionally and physically ready to birth puppies. Our first litter is exceptional and those little souls light up the room.What makes your program special?
Give these puppies attention and training throughout the day. Was present at their birth and spend time gaining their love and trust daily. Lots of socialization and plenty of space to play with litter mates. Potty trained at 23 days of life and learning other basic commandsWhat are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature and medium sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include caramel, caramel red, chocolate, cafe, and parchment. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Litter and program updates
Dawn H.
Program update on 13 May •…Charlie and Patches sent momma Nora and I updated pics. They are such beautiful fur babies at 7 months. Great job on their cuts, Mercedes and Keith!
Dawn H.
Program update on 03 May •…If the eyes are the window to the soul, these fur babies—now approaching 7 months—tell a beautiful story. Each glance reflects their kind hearts, curious minds, playful spirits, and loving nature. They have a way of lighting up every room they enter and have blended seamlessly into their families, bringing joy, companionship, and endless affection. We are so excited for their futures and all the happiness they will continue to bring. Left to right: Patches, Juno (aka Cuddles), Jemma, Vienna and Charlie ( white/ brown).

Program update on 27 Apr •…Meet Patches – Future 2027 Stud Patches is an exceptional Australian Labradoodle who will be joining our 2027 stud services program. At just 6 months of age, he is already showing outstanding structure, temperament, and coat quality—everything we look for in a future sire. Weighing just under 30 pounds currently, Patches is expected to mature around 35 pounds, placing him in that highly desirable medium range. He features a loose chocolate brown curl with a non-shedding, hypoallergenic fleece coat, making him an ideal match for allergy-conscious families and programs. • DNA tested • Expected adult weight: ~35 lbs • Coat: loose curl, fleece, non-shedding What truly sets Patches apart is his temperament—something his guardian family describes beautifully: “He is the perfect blend of active and couch potato. He loves to play and be outside but is totally content to relax and snuggle with the kids. He is super fast and very smart. He is watchful and protective and notices right away if something is new or out of place. He loves going for car rides and being around his family.” Patches embodies the ideal balance of intelligence, loyalty, and adaptability. His intuitive nature, paired with a playful spirit and affectionate disposition, makes him a standout addition to our program. We’re excited to see the legacy he will bring to future litters.

Program update on 26 Apr •Juno ( Cuddles) is very inquisitive.
Dawn H.
Program update on 25 Apr •…It looks like Juno (Cuddles) has landed a really supportive, enriching environment with Mark and Belinda—that kind of continuity and trust matters a lot for a young dog’s development. The fact that she recognized me after months apart says quite a bit about the bond we’ve built. At 6 months and about 23 lbs, 20 inches tall, she has developed a beautiful non shedding hypoallergenic coat —loose chocolate brown wavy curls with reddish tones on the muzzle, legs, and ears. Her temperament is playful and obedient with greenish eyes that melt your heart. Juno will be a momma in 2028 after given time to mature. I’ll share updates along the way as she journeys to dog adulthood.
Dawn H.
Litter update on 10 Feb •…Patches is thriving and settling in beautifully with his forever family! My heart is so full of joy to see all of these puppies find their homes, homes that I prayed for and God answered these sincere prayers. I’ll keep you up updated with those that will remain in our breeding program as they mature.

Litter update on 09 Feb •…Patches is so loved by his new forever family. Movie night with new family, kids’ cards, a big welcome sign—that’s the kind of forever every pup deserves. And how special that he’s part of our larger story too, with the breeding program ahead. Spring 2027 will be here before you know it, and I can already tell those future updates are going to be joyful ones. It’s been almost 18 weeks since these beautiful puppies entered this world, and God is faithful—and it shows in the way this all came together. Thank you for sharing Patches’ chapter with me. 🐾✨

Litter update on 07 Feb •…Those last shared routines—the car ride, the familiar smells at the vet, the quiet companionship—mean more than they seem in the moment. You can tell they’ve been a steady comfort for each other, the kind of bond that doesn’t need constant play to be real. It was good to see brother Charlie again💕

Litter update on 07 Feb •…Jemma might “win” on points with enthusiasm, but Patches has experience and the I’ll allow this until I won’t energy. In the end, the real winner is whoever claims the comfiest spot afterward… probably right next to me. Sunday’s going to be bittersweet. They’re squeezing in every last playful moment before Patches goes to his new forever home as a puppy in our breeding program 💛

Litter update on 03 Feb •…Morning routines and playtime are so important for these growing puppies. Patches continues to thrive in an environment full of love, play, and gentle guidance from momma Nora while patiently waiting for his forever home. We use the word “settle” to help bring calm to the room as playtime winds down. These puppies are incredibly intelligent and so loving.

Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Vet Wellness Exam
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

+4I don’t know if words can truly express how wonderful and thoughtful Dawn is as a breeder. She welcomed us into her home with two young children and was so patient and kind with us. Very quickly we realized that Dawn is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the Breed. This did not feel transactional with Dawn, It felt like I had known her for years and that we had been searching for the perfect addition to my family for a long time. After we finally selected Stetson, who we renamed Boromir or (Bo) for short, her kindness and expertise did not end there. She has consistently followed up with me over the past week to ensure that I have a follow up appointment scheduled with my vet, that I have all the information that I need to transfer the records, she even sent over a care package for not only for Bo, but for my two children as well. What started as an innocent search for me to replace a long time family member of 14 years, Lead me to Dawn and her beautiful litter of puppies if you ever have the opportunity to do business with her, I would highly recommend it. She truly does want what is best for the puppies and your family.
