    I am a first time puppy/dog owner, so this process was very nerve wracking for me. Traci was very informative and helpful during this process. She answered any questions that I had and was very responsive. I flew all the way from Florida to pick up Aubrey (Curry) and Traci was accommodating and extremely helpful during that process. I am very happy and pleased with my new pup. He is as healthy as can be, cute, and super playful. I highly recommend Traci if you’re interested in an aussiedoodle. I could have not asked for a better experience.

    The whole process went seamless. Traci was very communicative from the day I inquired to the day I picked up our puppy, Rusty. Great experience!

    Tracy and Hickory Hideaway Doodles were amazing to work with throughout the process. We reserved Gus (Canyon) 2 days after he was born. Traci communicated well, sent weekly photos and updates, and shared their milestones as they came up. Gus is 12 weeks and a very big boy, 28lbs! From day one Traci showed us that she is doing this out of love for the puppies. This is our first dog, however, we both grew up with dogs our entire life and can both say that Gus is one of the easiest puppies to work with. He amazes us with how smart he is, how fast he is to pick up on commands, and we could not ask for better temperament from a puppy. We would recommend Traci and Hickory Hideaway Doodles to anyone interested in a Bernedoodle puppy.

    It was so amazing dealing with Traci. It was very smooth and she was very communicative. She prepared me with everything i would have needed if I hadn't had an Aussiedoodle before to have a good basis. I love my little girl so much and she came nearly completely potty trained!

    I cannot say enough great things about Traci. She was knowledgeable and helpful. The puppy was perfect in every way. Healthy, great temperament, active. I could not have asked for a better breeder. Coriander has acclimated perfectly with all the animals on the farm and is an extremely quick learner. I have nothing but the highest praise for Traci and she has my strongest recommendation.

    I am so happy that I found Traci and Hickory Hideaway Doodles!!! First of all she breeds the most beautiful, amazing, intelligent Aussiedoodles from 2 beautiful parents. This puppy has brought so much joy to our lives. From my first inquiry about the puppy, Traci has not only replied quickly to my messages but has as so informative. She thoroughly answered questions about the breed and how to care for them. (and still does) I could tell she loves these dogs. Also she sent me updates and pictures (which I lived for). I would recommend anyone looking for an Aussiedoodle to contact her!!!!!
