Q. & A. with Erin
Why did you start breeding?
I grew up raising puppies and have never known life without dogs. I’ve loved them all, from purebreds to rescues. When my boys were young, we had a much-loved rescue, but I wasn’t completely comfortable with him around the kids. I began researching breeds with temperament and family compatibility in mind. That search led us to Goldendoodles, and I began raising them in 2012.What makes your program special?
Since 2012, I’ve raised Goldendoodles from petites to standards, focusing on health, temperament, and finding the right fit for each family. As a GANA Gold Level breeder, I value health testing, responsible breeding, and lifelong support. Today, I also share what I’ve learned through I Want A Doodle, helping families choose, raise, groom, and care for their Goldendoodles.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include petite, miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream, apricot, red, chocolate, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
