Meet the breeder

I'm Chad S., the breeder behind Marleys Doodles located in Fullerton, CA. Welcome to Marley's Doodles! We're a Southern California family who absolutely loves our Goldendoodle, Marley. She's a cherished part of our everyday lives, and we're excited about the possibility of raising one special litter of puppies. Our goal is to give each puppy a loving start in our home.

Q. & A. with Chad

Why did you start breeding?
Our interest in breeding began with our love for Marley. She's brought so much happiness to our family with her affectionate personality and wonderful companionship. We thought it would be special to share that experience with other families. Rather than becoming a large breeding operation, we're focusing on one carefully planned litter and giving each puppy the best start we can.
What makes your program special?
Marley's Doodles is a small, family-centered experience. Marley lives in our home as a loved family member, and her puppies will be raised right alongside us. We plan to provide daily attention, gentle socialization, age-appropriate enrichment, and veterinary care. Our priority is helping each puppy grow into a happy companion and finding loving families who will treasure them.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are medium size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream and apricot. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Marley
Marley is truly one of the most amazing dogs we've ever known! She has the sweetest temperament and absolutely loves everyone she meets. She's incredibly gentle, affectionate, curious, and always wants to be part of whatever is going on. Whether she's exploring something new, playing with the family, or just soaking up some love and attention, Marley has a way of making everyone smile. She's playful and fun, yet has such a calm, loving nature. She really is the kind of dog everyone wishes they had, and we feel so lucky she's ours. We can only hope her puppies inherit the wonderful personality that makes Marley so special!
