Q. & A. with JD
Why did you start breeding?
Life long canine enthusiasts, we were enthralled by the mini Goldendoodle combination of poodle smarts with golden retriever friendliness. We want to provide families with loving, adaptable dogs who travel easily and whose size is acceptable at many establishments (hotels, beach rentals). Our exceptional mini goldendoodles inspired us to share our good fortune with other families seeking the same.What makes your program special?
Experienced breeder with strong knowledge of dog genetics and socialization requirements. Our dogs are regularly vet checked and have been tested for the full Goldendoodle DNA panel of diseases, including GRPRA1, GRPRA2, ICH, DM, and PRA-prcd. Our pups are raised in our home with their mothers, and not banished to concrete cells in external buildings, as often is the case with larger operations.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include petite and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream, 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.

JD and his family were a pleasure to work with. They were very knowledgeable about the breed and ready with suggestions and practical information to help Asher’s transition to our family as smooth as possible. I appreciate too the updates and photos provided in the weeks leading up to our pick up date. Asher has a clean bill of health from our vet and has been very well taken care of. Thank you Loving Doodles!

We couldn't be any happier with our doodle Sisters. They love each other as much as they love us. These two sisters are always up to trouble and so intelligent. Working with Karen and JD has been a great experience. They are very helpful and responsive from the moment you first contact them and even after you've picked up the pups. You can tell they really care about all of their pups!

I could not have had a better experience working with JD and Loving Doodles. Communication has been top tier even after having my new pup for just over a week and still to this day a month later! I am extremely happy and blessed to be able to find this group of people who not only love the dogs but prepare first time dog owners like myself. Gus and I are soulmates and he has changed my life in so many ways. I cannot thank you guys more enough. Please enjoy these pictures of my happy boy😊

Had a thoroughly enjoyable first pup experience with JD/Loving Doodles. Answered all of our questions before, during, and after we picked up our doodle. Made us, as first-time dog owners, at ease, providing us a wealth of resources to set us up for success. Thank you!!

+4We would highly recommend Loving Doodles. JD was amazing throughout this whole process. We recently lost one of our dogs after 9 years and saw it was hard for our Bernedoodle to be without a companion so we began the search. We came across Loving Doodles' profile and reached out to find out more. JD was very responsive and paitient with us knowing what we were going through. When we finally made our decision to move forward, JD was incredible with helping us plan the next steps. He shared photo updates, new puppy information and worked with us on the best place to meet for the pick up. Cosmo has been with us for a week now and we can see right away that he came from a loving and caring environment. He is the most happy, playful, well tempered puppy. He is fitting right in to our family and we could not be happier. If we ever want to expand the family JD will be the first one we contact.

I couldn't have had a better experience buying a Golden Doodle from JD of Loving Doodles. All was great from my first contact with them to actually taking her home. Their response to my initial inquiry was quick as to all my subsequent questions. I especially gravitated toward Loving Doodles because of their insistence on breeding healthy dogs. I was amazed that they sent me pages of helpful hints individualized to Dixie. What to get, what to expect, etc. Dixie is a healthy, playful but calm pup who is potty trained and walks well on a leash. When it was time for me to pick Dixie up ( I met them in an agreed upon location) they spend a good deal of time answering my questions and presented me with before seen health records and toys. I know they will always be there for me and future questions. I feel that I have made friends with the breeder and will continue to update them on Dixie.
