I'm Shawn and Vanessa F., the breeder behind Pacific Coast Goldendoodles located in El Cajon, CA. We are the founders of Pacific Coast Goldendoodles, a small San Diego family breeder created out of our love for Finley, our sweet goldendoodle. We have poured our hearts into raising each puppy with attentive, hands-on care and finding loving families where they will be cherished.

After buyers complete the application and screening process, Shawn and Vanessa partners with them to find the best puppy match.
“We put a lot of thought and care into finding the right family for each puppy. Once the puppies are around 7–8 weeks old, we have a better sense of their individual personalities and temperaments. This helps us match each puppy with the family we believe will be the best fit.”

“The price includes the first round of vaccinations, deworming, puppy socialization, and prenatal care. This litter includes highly desirable coat colors and markings, such as parti and abstract. All of our puppies are the same price regardless of coat color, markings, or gender.”
