Q. & A. with Erica
Why did you start breeding?
My mother bred dogs when I was a child. We were raised in this world and knew the ins and outs before adulthood. It was an easy decision when we purchased our first goldendoodle in 2011, and we've been bettering our bloodlines ever since!What makes your program special?
We are constantly learning and improving our lines. We've studied conformation in both golden retrievers and poodles, and are always pairing our dogs in a way that improves their overall balance and structure. We put a strong focus on loyalty (they naturally have great recall), human devotion, train-ability, coat quality, and health. We use genetic testing to produce great consistent coats.
