Q. & A. with Tina
Why did you start breeding?
After spending years as a licensed childcare provider, and a loving pet owner, the goldendoodle temperament and emotional companionship captured our hearts. We aim to only have 1-2 litters a year and select only the best pairings to bring high quality, health tested, gorgeous even tempered additions to your family.What makes your program special?
We limit our moms to 3-4 litters MAX. We prioritize health/genetic testing and provide early screenings to ensure your new fur baby is a healthy fit for your family. Moms are given extra care and attention before, during, and after breeding. They are our family pets! You will meet your puppy’s mom, their older siblings, and grandma! You will belong to our extended doodle family. ❤️What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include apricot, red, black, merle, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Tina was the best breeder we could have found! She was communicative from the very beginning. Not only did she give me continuous updates and pictures of my puppy, she even FaceTimed with us so we could see our puppy live and up close!! When we went to pick Tessie up, Tina was organized and had the paperwork and everything we would need ready to go. She raises quality, happy healthy puppies and continues to check in for updates and pictures. If I get another puppy I would absolutely go straight to Tina and there’s no better recommendation than that!!

Tina was absolutley fantastic throughout the entire process. As a breeder, she took the time to explain all of the puppies, their parents and even the grandparents to ensure my decision was based on solid information. Rusty (was Aster) is the delight of my entire family. He is smart, easy to train (Tina had already taught him to sit and basic crate and potty training), with a delightful mellow and goofy personality. When I picked him up, he ran to my legs and we bonded quickly. Such a wonderful experience and my full recommendation for a puppy from lover dover doodles. You will find a healthy, happy, well socialized friend for life. The vet I took him to said he was very healthy and I had to ask for Rusty back because he had fallen asleep on his shoulder.

Tina was so good to work with in deciding what puppy we should choose. She is so knowledgeable and very quick to respond to any message I sent. She shared photos and videos of the pups different stages. I loved how she took the extra effort to start potty training and crate training prior to our pick up date. This definitely showed when we continued this training. You could tell he definitely knew what to do and was trained so quickly. Our puppy Winston has the best demeanor and we are so happy in our pick of the liter. This is our second Goldendoodle and we couldn't be happier with the breeder we chose. You could just tell by talking to Tina on the phone and seeing her home for her dogs and puppies that she does care very much about her breeding process and outcome of such wonderful puppies!!
