I will miss them greatly, but im so excited for everyone to get their babies home and start bonding with them. I look forward to all the pictures and updates!

Puppies are playing with each other now. They are so loving, and cute, and playful, and snuggly already 💖 They are doing pretty awesome with the potty trays, so their play area will get bigger as they master that! Just wanted to share a little video of them now that they are awake more and more active😊

It was a joy to work with Nicole as we searched for our new puppy. She was so helpful and always responsive to our requests. Our Sadie is beautiful and so sweet. She is learning new things everyday. When we picked up our puppy it was evident that Nicole and the whole family loved the puppies dearly. I would highly recommend Nicole if you are looking for a puppy.

Nicole was responsive and kind throughout the entire process of our puppy search! She was helpful when we were unsure what puppy we wanted and sent updates regularly as our puppy was growing! She made bringing home our new baby easy and enjoyable—more so than it naturally is. We are so grateful for Nicole and her Bernedoodles!

We had a great experience working with Nicole! She was very communicative, answered all our questions, and was helpful in meeting us closer to our home when it was time to pickup our puppy. We are so happy with our dog, Rolo! She is a beautiful dog with a sweet disposition. She is already doing well with training and is good with my kids. We'd definitely recommend Nicole as a dog breeder!
