Q. & A. with Elizabeth
Why did you start breeding?
A close friend of mine is a breeder & has encouraged & supported me to “do it scared”. This has become my motto in life as I navigate this new adventure!
What makes your program special?
Our puppies are well adjusted, raised in our home with four loud & crazy children. They begin early neurological stimulation at birth & follow the badass breeder/empowered puppy curriculum. All breeding dogs are health tested beyond standard & must pass Pennhip & OFA to enter into our program.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Bernedoodle puppies are standard size. Cavapoo puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Bernedoodle puppies include red, black and white, and tri-color. Cavapoo puppies include white, sable, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Sweet Pea is our last remaining standard bernedoodle! He is an energetic, intelligent & eager to please boy who craves one on one attention!
