Q. & A. with Julie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always loved puppies. I started breeding in 2002. Every litter still holds the same excitement. I enjoy raising puppies and being able to place them with loving families.
  • What makes your program special?

    I believe in daily interaction with my puppies and the best health care. I offer lifetime support and no question is ever too small or a bother. I love all of my families that have gotten puppies from me. If I don’t know an answer to a question someone has I will search until I find it. I love helping families with potty training tips and training on a leash.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Bernedoodle puppies are standard size. Goldendoodle puppies include miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
