Q. & A. with Stephanie
Why did you start breeding?
I was fortunate to get into breeding after bringing our sweet Goldendoodle, Indie, home! After realizing how special she was, I spent two years educating myself while being mentored by a well established Goldendoodle breeder. Once we completed all Indie's DNA and OFA clearances, we never looked back! I developed our breeding program based on excellent temperament, stature and beauty and enrichment.What makes your program special?
We provide one on one nurturing beginning with early Bio Sensory Stimulation, which is early socialization and training at just 3 days old! Puppy curriculum and enrichment activities begin from 3 weeks on, which will help you develop a great relationship with your puppy from day one! Potty training begins at 5 weeks so they are well on their way to success, once they get home!What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include apricot and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent dogs
Maisie, mom
Goldendoodle
About Maisie
Maisie is Indie's sweet girl we kept back from her very last litter with Django! Maisie is one special girl! She is not only a gorgeous red with white abstract markings, but is also incredibly sweet, loving and loyal. She is also very, very smart! Maisie loves to be trained and loves to please. Both exceptional characteristics to pass on to her puppies. Maisie's first love is playing fetch, but a very close second is playing with the squirrel in our backyard. Maisie will bring you her ball and drop it at your feet or even roll her ball to you so you will throw it for her. She also loves to play games with her ball, hiding it under the table and then digging it out. She is also just cuddly as a nice soft blanket with her low shedding silky coat!
Aussie, mom
Goldendoodle
About Aussie
Aussie is our sweet pup we kept from Indie's first litter! She is an F1B beauty! Aussie is a BIG lover! She inherited many of Indies traits and is incredibly sweet and very loyal. She gets so excited when we come home! Nothing can ever replace that feeling of unconditional love she brings! She is very smart and quick to be trained. She loves learning new things and is very eager to please. She loves playing with her squeaky ball and running around the backyard with Indie chasing their friend, Squirrel.
