Meet the breeder

I'm Debra H., the breeder behind River Falls Cockapoos located in Marietta, SC. Our Cockapoos are family raised and loved! Our dams and sires have been DNA tested by the best in the business. We cherish all of our animals and enjoy sharing the love and laughter of this breed with other individuals and families! We are passionate anımal lovers and believe every puppy deserves the very best home possible. Our puppies are deeply loved and cared for from the very beginning, and it is incredibly important to us that they are placed with families who will cherish them, provide them with a loving and nurturing environment, and care for them throughout their entire lives. Finding the right family for each puppy is something we take very seriously, because we want to know they will continue to be loved as much as they are here.

Q. & A. with Debra

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We are lovers of all animals! I started breeding poodles in the late 80's and then took a long break to focus all my time raising a family. Once all left for college I took up breeding again. I began breeding Cockapoos because of a delightful Cockapoo named Holly, whom we rescued when she was 2. She brought so much joy into our lives that I felt compelled to share these wonderful companions with others.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our Moms and Dads and their puppies are raised inside our home as part of our family and experience family life -not kennel life- from the moment they are born. We focus on quality, health, and temperament. All our dams and sires are DNA health tested by Embark. Genetic diversity improves performance and health. The best traits from 2 different breeds wrapped up in one dog.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Debra was a pleasure to work with. We first contacted her before Dani’s litter was born expressing interest in one of her puppies. When they were born Debra notified us and we chose a puppy. Debra sent us weekly pictures and updates on their progress. It’s very apparent she truly enjoys raising puppies. We’re in love with our puppy Teddy. A sweet lovable, sociable pup, loves people. Debra did a great job socializing her puppies!

    Debra raises truly wonderful puppies. The entire communication process was smooth, kind, and reassuring. We feel incredibly lucky to have received the best puppy we could have ever hoped for—she’s healthy, affectionate, and remarkably intelligent. In just two weeks at home, she’s already doing great with potty training, crate training, and has learned commands like sit, spin, get down, and paw. We’re so excited for the years ahead with her. Thank you so much, Debra!

    We had a terrific experience with Debra and River Falls Cockapoos. We were fortunate enough to live close by so we were actually able to go visit them. We had the chance to interact with mom Dani and the pups. Debra answered all of our questions and was very responsive throughout the process. Pisgah now Carlee Belle has adjusted very well to her new family!
