Q. & A. with Lana

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We got interested in breeding while looking for our family dog. Breeding is truly a family thing and we all do our part into raising the best puppies!

  • What makes your program special?

    I think the thing that makes us special is our commitment to treating others with kindness and respect but also that we are raising all of the puppies and parents indoors. This is important for so many reasons and we whole-heartedly believe in less is more. Our goal isn't to be the biggest breeder in the town but rather to have the best practices you can find!

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Cavapoo puppies are miniature size. Goldendoodle puppies include petite, miniature, and medium sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Cavapoo puppies are merle. Goldendoodle puppies include apricot, red, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Lana was amazing to work with. Easy to reach and communicate with. She is very knowledgeable about the puppies and able to provide support and guidance if new to the puppy world. It is obvious she cares that they get a loving home. Mercy Doodles is the BEST!

    Bringing home Koda (Lucky) has been such an amazing experience for our family! The entire process was smooth from start to finish, and you can truly tell how much love and care this breeder puts into their puppies. Koda came home healthy, happy, affectionate, and very well-socialized. My kids are already completely in love with him! We’re so thankful for our sweet boy and highly recommend this breeder to anyone looking for a wonderful experience and an amazing puppy 🐶🤍

    I had such a wonderful experience with Lana! From the beginning, she made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. She was very caring, and communicative, and clearly loves and takes great care of her puppies. She even sent Kingston (Patch) home with a thoughtful treat bag, which was so appreciated! My kids were beyond happy and excited to finally bring Kingston home. My sister also has one of Kingston’s brothers, and both puppies are happy, healthy, and so loved. You can truly tell Lana puts a lot of care into raising her puppies. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible breeder!
