Meet the breeder
I'm Charissa G., the breeder behind Garside Doodles located in Sedona, AZ. I'm committed to providing each of our families with an adorable, well socialized, healthy puppy.

Q. & A. with Charissa
Why did you start breeding?
My first childhood dog was my best friend as a only child. Unfortunately, he was a pound puppy and developed cancer at only 7 years old. My time with him was cut so short. I then saw the side effects of irresponsible breeding as a vet tech. This sparked a passion to do all I can to provide well rounded puppies to families.What makes your program special?
Strong relationship with each of my families through the buying process and beyond. Taking reservations ahead of time allows me to share the experience from birth until the moment they go home with their new families and it really connects us. I have had many comments from my families about how unique and awesome the experience was.What 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 apricot, red, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
