Working with Heyday was a wonderful experience. Owner is super responsible, obviously loves her pups and only wants the best for them. She trained my “last of litter” and provided follow up help whenever I asked. She cares enough to follow us on IG. Her litters are home bred and doted on—only kind of breeder I’d recommend.

This was a unique process since I live overseas but the breeder Catherine did a good job of keeping me informed about the puppy, answering my constant questions, sending videos and pictures etc. We were in regular communication. She even personally flew the dog to Miami where I could meet her for pickup to take my puppy to South America. Although we had a snafu tryIng to obtain the USDA stamp for my dog’s international health certificate, it was not her fault and luckily it worked out and I was able to get the dog home abroad without any issues. I would recommend Heyday doodles to anyone looking for a Doodle puppy. Catherine is now an expert on international clients as well after having me as one!😊Our new puppy is adorable and we love her.

+5I recently had the pleasure of working with Cathrine at Heyday Doodles, and I couldn't be happier with my experience! I’ve been using her stud service for a couple of years, and I’ve always been impressed with the quality of her Goldendoodles. I love her lines so much that I decided to purchase a male puppy as a prospective stud for my breeding program. We named him Montgomery, or Monty for short. Monty has turned out to be the sweetest boy with an excellent temperament—he's friendly, playful, and just a joy to have around. Not only is he a wonderful companion, but he’s also healthy and thriving! It's clear that Heyday Doodles prioritizes the well-being of their puppies. I highly recommend Cathrine and Heyday Doodles to anyone looking to bring a lovable and healthy puppy into their home. Thank you, Cathrine, for helping me find my new best friend and future breeding partner! Darlene Perks Court Doodles, LLC Dayton, Ohio
