I'm Treva L., the breeder behind Lykeable Farms located in Loveland, OH. We are a small in-home breeder located in Loveland, Ohio. We focus our energy on only a handful of litters a year so each puppy gets a true family raised experience.
Q. & A. with Treva
Why did you start breeding?
I'm a golden retriever lover by nature. After finding out our daughter is allergic to dogs, we thought a family dog was out of reach. While at a playdate with some friends, we realized our daughter did fine with their Goldendoodles. Those friends are established breeders... the rest is history! We enjoy partnering with our friends at Timberidge Goldendoodles and our kids and dogs have so much fun together.
What makes your program special?
Our puppies live daily life with us- trips to the bus stop, the store, our kids' sporting events- our puppies go everywhere with us! We set up PuppyTown in our family room, where our cuties see the sights and sounds of everyday life. Our parent dogs have undergone genetic testing, temperament testing, and all have passing scores on their OFA hips and elbows. We LOVE raising happy, healthy puppies!
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, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
