Q. & A. with Jennifer
Why did you start breeding?
My love and best friend, Bella, is our Goldendoodle that really pushed me to want to use my passion to do better! High-quality standards and ensuring our puppies are treated just like a part of the family (living inside our home WITH us) is the backbone of why our doodles are your soon-to-be furever friend.
What makes your program special?
All our puppies are raised in our home with our family. Once puppies are old enough, the whole family helps so they are well socialized and used to kids and noises. We follow puppy culture and the Badass Breeders program to ensure your puppy is given our ALL in our short 8 weeks with them! We love them and truly love seeing the joy they bring to their furever families’ lives.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard 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.
