Meet the breeder

I'm Kara G., the breeder behind Gold Diamond Pup located in Seffner, FL. Preserving the health and wellness of our dogs is a top priority. These values direct us to make the optimum choices for the mental and physical care of our dogs. We believe that a loving home is one of the strongest pillars to the health of our pets. We make it our business to pass this view on.

Q. & A. with Kara

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I began with a passion for helping families find the right dog for their lifestyle. I believed puppies should be chosen based on temperament and compatibility rather than simply color or gender. That philosophy led me to begin breeding and raising puppies myself. Today, one of the greatest joys of what I do is helping families find companions that truly fit their homes, personalities, and goals.

  • What makes your program special?

    What makes our program unique is our focus on temperament over trends. We temperament test and DNA test every puppy, offer a lifetime genetic health guarantee, and prioritize matching each puppy to the right family. Our puppies are raised in our home with intentional socialization, early enrichment, training foundations, and lifelong breeder support.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Bernedoodle puppies include mini and medium sizes. Goldendoodle puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

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

    Our Bernedoodle puppies include red, black and white, tri-color, blue merle, and merle. Goldendoodle puppies include cream, apricot, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

Getting a puppy from Kara

Kara has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

Kara partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 7 weeks old.

“**Our Matching Process – Gold Diamond Pup** At Gold Diamond Pup, we believe finding the right puppy is about much more than choosing based on color, markings, or gender. Our goal is to create lifelong matches that set both our puppies and their families up for success. From the moment they are born, each puppy is thoughtfully raised, carefully observed, and intentionally exposed to age-appropriate experiences that help us understand their unique personalities as they develop. At **7 weeks and 3 days of age**, every puppy undergoes a comprehensive temperament evaluation. This assessment provides valuable insight into each puppy's natural tendencies, confidence level, energy, resilience, sociability, motivation, and overall temperament. We also take the time to get to know our families—their lifestyle, activity level, experience with dogs, household dynamics, and what they hope to find in a companion. By considering both the temperament results and each family's needs and goals, we are able to thoughtfully recommend the puppies we believe will thrive in their homes. While we always take family preferences into account, our priority is finding the best long-term fit rather than simply honoring pick order based solely on appearance. We believe this approach creates stronger relationships, smoother transitions, and happier outcomes for everyone involved. At the end of the day, our greatest joy is not just raising exceptional puppies—it's helping each one find the family where they truly belong. 🤍 ”

    We are thrilled with Kara and how much help she has been for us. Ranger is a polite pup and sits until his bowl is put down and he is told it is okay to eat. She sent him home with food and supplements and has been extremely responsive when we have questions. Her early work with Ranger has given us a head start to training. She sent him home with a little stuffed pig that we call Miss Piggy. For the first few days, he did not have any accidents. He had a little digestive issue that threw him off for a few days, but he is getting back on track. He goes to the door when he needs out. (It's not his fault if we don't see him immediately) . You can see how much she worked with him and his littermates to help give them a good start. It was such a large litter and yet she took time to work with all of them. We were greatly impressed and would recommend highly.

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
