Meet the breeder
I'm Beth M., the breeder behind Melhorn Manor & Farm Doodles located in Powell, TN.

We look forward to helping you find your next loyal companion!
Q. & A. with Beth
Why did you start breeding?
As a true animal lover, turned Labor & Delivery Nurse, and now farmer, Beth has always been fascinated with birth and genetics. She and the children had the opportunity to assist a good friend with the whelping/raising of her Show Dalmatians over the past 10 years. We knew at some point we would enter the dog breeding world. Though it was imperative to wait for God’s perfect timing.What makes your program special?
Our low-number approach allows us to leave a lasting impact on each individual puppy preparing them for a smooth transition into your home and their new life. Our perfectionist nature results in us investing 110% of ourselves into our breeding program to ensure we are offering quality over quantity.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. 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, and merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Meadow
Meadow is a gorgeous happy-go-lucky girl who adores everyone she encounters. She enjoys going on any and all adventures whether it’s a short car ride taking her favorite human to school or going on a hike. She’s completed extensive obedience training along the way including her K9 Offleash certification. Her favorite toy is anything stuffed with a squeaker hidden within. My most favorite thing about Meadow is her unwavering loyalty to her human, my 13yo son, Cullen. They are two peas in a pod, partners in crime, best friends.
