Q. & A. with John

  • Why did you start breeding?

    The love for dogs started our breeding program. Our first doodle was a labradoodle that we loved very much. She started our desire to bring other types of doodles into our family.
  • What makes your program special?

    Living in the mountains makes it special for the puppies. Fresh air, exercise and quality food will make a happy puppy. They love running through our springs on the property. They can get messy but they love it.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Goldendoodle puppies are medium size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Goldendoodle puppies include apricot, merle, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    I let too much time go by without telling you how wonderful our experience was! We have had many large dogs over our lives. When my husband and I retired we wanted a dog with a little less "presence". We prayed long and hard about getting a puppy and heard so many horror stories. We fell in love with John and his wife's Cavapoos right away! They were very helpful, quick to communicate, accommodating for pick up and patient with holding our pick while we decided. After bringing the puppy home we found him to be perfect. His temperament was amazing! Whatever they did beforehand with crating was a godsend, because he slept through the night in his crate from day one. He is soooo smart too!. Potty trained easily, catches on to the routine, hangs around us all the time, but not needy or destructive. We are so happy with our baby and honestly didn't know we could love a little guy so much! thank you!!

    We got our mini cavapoo from John last month and so far he is PERFECT! We couldn't be happier with the new addition to our family. John was amazing with communication and answered every one of our questions, since Bennett was our first pet. HIGHLY recommend!!

    John from Rockbridge puppies was great! Easy to work with, very flexible about a location and time of pick up. Delivered us a happy healthy puppy! Would highly recommend!

    We’re first-time dog parents, and working with Rockbridge Puppies was seamless from inquiry to pickup. John and his wife were responsive, kind, and had everything organized—vet records, crate routine, the works. We brought home Tuxedo (“Tux”) at about three months old; he was well-socialized, calm in his crate, and essentially potty trained. Now nearing six months, he’s the sweetest, most social little guy—gentle with kids and dogs, sits/downs on cue, and checks in to go out. Daycare staff rave about him. We’re so grateful for the wonderful start they gave him—highly recommend Rockbridge Puppies.

    John was easy to communicate with, kept me up to date on pup’s appointments and growth, and was flexible with meeting us. Our pup is adorable, healthy, and was practically completely potty trained the day we brought him home.
