Q. & A. with Jon

Why did you start breeding?
My mother raised dachshunds so I was born into it. We also raised a variety of animals other than just dogs. My first solo experience was really rabbits. Our first two doodles (Lucy and Lucky) had their first and only litter and we were into breeding as a family. Lucky passed away shortly after we bought the farm, so we named it after him. We still have Lucy but she's retired.
What makes your program special?
Health-First Genetics: Every pup starts with parents who've been rigorously tested via Embark DNA. We select for robust health, screening for common concerns while celebrating their intelligence and vitality. Farm-Fresh, Family-Centric Raising: No kennels here—our dogs (just three cherished Aussies) live as pack members, herding sheep (and chickens) by day and curling up for storytime by night.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are mini size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red and blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Snoopy and Pumpkin's litter

Parent dogs

Snoopy, dad
Aussiedoodle
About Snoopy
Snoopy is a solemn, cool, calm character. Full of regality but also a willing snuggler. He rules the roost, except when Pumpkin tells him he's not in charge (typically when her pups are nearby). He prefers to stand guard on our deck/balcony watching over all the animals in the yard below.
Uploaded health tests
Multiple Drug Sensitivity (MDR1), PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd).
Pumpkin, mom
Aussiedoodle
About Pumpkin
Pumpkin is the sweetest, most gentle lap cuddler with a curious, adventurous spirit. She loves depositing herself on our laps while hanging out in the living room. But she is always ready for a run around the house and carries a full on bounce wherever she goes.
Uploaded health tests
Multiple Drug Sensitivity (MDR1), PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd).
