Q. & A. with Simona
Why did you start breeding?
After we got Harper, my husband mentioned how he would love to share her with everyone... that is when we began looking into & falling in love with the process of raising puppies. I spent years reading and researching anything & everything about breeding, genetics, temperament testing & health- you name it, I have researched it. Along the way I have met wonderful mentors and sweet families.
What makes your program special?
I would consider this my passion, I love meeting people & helping make their family's whole. I am a stay at home mom who raises puppies for your family. We bring them in and allow them to be 100% apart of our homes. We begin with desensitization to noises & smells, while socializing them along the way- both humans & animals alike. Our goal is to make them steal your hearts.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are medium size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream, chocolate, black, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Chloe
Chloe is a Medium Goldendoodle. She is the friendliest with the sweetest temperament. She is playful, cuddly and eager to please. She loves to be where you are, whether in the car or watching TV with you. She enjoys falling asleep with us at the foot of the bed. She loves to play with both kids and dogs the same. She has been sleep, crate, potty trained since she was 8-9 weeks old. She wants to go with her family wherever they are and doesn't ever want to be by herself.

Elbow Dysplasia (Preliminary)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
