We are absolutely thrilled with our Bernedoodle puppy from High Desert Family Doodles! From the very beginning, he has been such a joy—so well-behaved, already knows how to sit, responds to a clicker, and even lets us know when he needs to go potty. He has acclimated beautifully with our family and our other dog, and his socialization and temperament are outstanding. Erin did an incredible job preparing him for his new home. She provided excellent communication, guidance, and detailed information to help us support his success. It’s clear she put a lot of time and care into socializing and educating him at such a young age. We couldn’t be happier with our new furry family member!

High desert family doodles provided my family with the most extraordinary puppy and a wonderful, supported experience every step of the way. This was my first time working with a breeder and I did a lot of research to find an ethical breeder and HDFD is top notch. They take responsibility for the dog for the dog’s whole life, which was a core criteria for us. Their health records and attention to detail for both the puppy health and dog-mama health is excellent. Their core curriculum with the Empowered Breeder program, training and de-sensitizing and socializing puppies from the start, was vital in creating such a balanced and well-rounded pup. We have continued the Empowered Puppy program for consistency at home and the impact is clear. Our puppy came to us at 8 weeks basically potty trained, crate trained, able to “sit to say please,” comfortable with handling and with wearing a collar, confident in exploring new situations, and ready to be a family dog from day one. At our first independent vet appointment the veterinarian said our puppy was “perfect.” We think so as well. Thanks High Desert Family Doodles for making our puppy dreams come true!
