Q. & A. with Nicole

Why did you start breeding?
We loved breeding Maltese in San Diego & Virginia. We were stationed with the Marine Corps at both locations.

We now breed only GDs in MT!

We only breed 1x per year to provide the best health, dedicated attention & training for our sweet Goldendoodles. We provide the highest quality diet of fresh wild MT game, emu, salmon filets, fresh farm eggs etc.We apply ENS, ESI therapies, socialization-list experiences (farm life too!), door ‘jinglebells’/doggy door potty & crate training. We raise all the pups in our loving, smoke-free home.

Chili, mom
Goldendoodle
About Chili
Chili is a very classic 'goldendoodle' personality of family-centric, wanting to sit on your lap 24/7, ride with her head right on your shoulder or the middle console when driving, following us around the farm- always friendly, playful, cuddly and close. She is a gorgeous specimen with tall, strong agile frame with plenty of extra energy for long walks, running around the fields and playing fetch. Chili's coat is incredibly soft, non-shedding- but very curly and requires a short body cut of '4' or '5' to prevent matting or frequent brushing of her ears, tail and head to get the 'cotton candy puff' :). She is center of standard Goldendoodle at 55-58lbs. and posts clear Embark health panels and DNA breed ratios of 72.8% Standard Poodle/ 27.2% Golden Retriever.
