I'm Kathy S., the breeder behind Goodland Doodles located in Goleta, CA. Our Doodles are raised in our home, are very socialized, and overly loved. We have only 1 selective and thoughtful litter a year. Pups are raised under foot and are never kenneled. We are very conscious about our dog's temperament and health. We only have one breeding female who is the queen of the house!
Q. & A. with Kathy
Why did you start breeding?
Ever since I was little, I bred my guppy fish and then started breeding my Calico and Himalayan cats. After my youngest was 3, we got our first Australian Shepherd and after that first litter of gorgeous colors I was in love with breeding the Merle gene and continued for many years. We now have only our one beloved Doodle, with no shedding, low maintenance, laid back, smart, funny, perfect fam dog
What makes your program special?
Our pups are a part of our family and life and receive love and stimulation from every size of hands. We raise our pups in our house and backyard with tender love and care. We also integrate them in the neighborhood with many sights, noises, and sounds. They are free range, we don’t own a kennel and enjoy our pups being an integral part of our everyday lives. Extremely cleaned area/pre-trained.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
