Q. & A. with Carmen
Why did you start breeding?
I was always a girl with allergy problems and it was very difficult for me to have a dream puppy.When we moved to Florida I always wanted a puppy but my mother was afraid that one would make me sick. When my mother brought a maltese to our home for the first time It was a dream come true it was to have a puppy which I could hug without any problem. Then I began to feel a lot of passion for hypoallergenic puppies and I only try to show many families that to make their children happy is possible.So we decide to have a bigger dog that will be my Teddy bear and was when i found the goldendoodles,smart,loyal and specil.
What makes your program special?
I think that when something is done with the heart it is always special. When we feel the unconditional love that our dogs bring into our lives is something amazing and unique.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Carmen was very responsive and a joy to work with. She has beautiful puppies and takes care of them like her own children. Carmen is honest and accommodating. She made the whole transaction a breeze. Put your trust in Carmen and you’ll be happy you did!
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.
