I'm Amber V., the breeder behind Oak and Magnolia located in Tennessee. Our dogs and puppies are highly valued and we prioritize their well-being by carefully selecting healthy and well-tempered parents, providing them with proper socialization and daily care, and ensuring they are placed in loving homes with caring families. Our aim is to create a positive experience for both the puppies and their new families.
Q. & A. with Amber
Why did you start breeding?
We are a Cockapoo-loving family striving to bridge the gap between amazing pets and customer service. This adventure started for us several years ago when Mark's family wanted to add a pet to the bunch. The research frenzy started with allergies being a driving factor in finding a hypoallergenic puppy. The Cockapoo breed was the clear winner not only because they are hypoallergenic but because they are also known for easy trainability, being great with children, their intelligence, sweet, fun-loving, and affectionate personalities. After searching for what seemed like forever, they found a beautiful Chocolate Cockapoo named Coco. The search led them to a seller that mirrored a puppy mill and a horrible customer service experience. We put our heads together and decided there had to be a better way. Oak and Magnolia was born with a desire to meet a need while making it a wonderfully memorable experience. While Coco is not part of our breeding program, we consider her the fun-loving reason we do what we do. We welcomed Oakley, Maggie (hence the name), Cypress, and Redd into our lives and haven't looked back.
