Stacy was awesome and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her. She gave me her number for any questions and has been very responsive. I was new to having a puppy. Stacy was kind and patient. Her puppies are smart and were quickly trained to sit and listen well

Bringing home my Goldendoodle puppy has been one of the best experiences I’ve ever had, and I have to give full credit to the breeder for the incredible quality and care they put into raising their dogs. From the very first night, my puppy amazed me—he went straight into his crate, slept through the night without a fuss, and has continued that routine ever since. Even more impressive, he came to me completely housebroken at such a young age, something I never thought possible with a new puppy.
What really stands out is how well-socialized and confident he is. He adjusted to my home so smoothly, and it’s clear he had an excellent start in life. His health, temperament, and training all reflect the dedication of a breeder who truly cares about the dogs they raise and the families they go to.
I’ve had dogs before, but this experience has been on another level. I can’t recommend this breeder enough, the love and effort they put in shines through in every way. My Goldendoodle is not only adorable but also the perfect companion, and I feel so lucky to have found him.

Stacy was wonderful to work with in all respects. She is much more focused on working with her puppies than any other breeders we ever worked with. Our Penny is very healthy and happy --- a little ball of energy.
