    Marina and Josh are the most lovely people ever! They put so much TLC into each and every one of their dogs and it shows when you bring home your puppy. My puppy has transitioned to our home with ease and is officially part of the pack. He loves snuggling, play fighting with his sisters, learning new tricks, big sticks, and flirting with all the ladies. He is definitely a people dude that loves new faces. He is absolutely fearless in the face of a blow dryer or thunderstorm. He is our 2nd dog from them and we adore him just as much as the first. Marina and Josh go above and beyond raising their puppies!

    I had such a wonderful experience with our breeder! From the moment Savanna came home, it was so clear how incredibly well cared for and loved she had been. She is happy, healthy, sweet, and already so comfortable with people. You can tell so much time and attention went into raising and socializing her during those important first weeks. The entire process was great, and I couldn’t be happier with my girl. I am absolutely loving having Savanna home! 🐶🤍

    After a year of searching for a service dog candidate puppy, I found him! Josh and Marina were absolutely lovely and easy to work with, from the initial inquiry, messages, video call, texts, drop off and follow ups. They gladly worked with me on drop off arrangements. The puppy I got is a testament to their excellent care and commitment to raising healthy well adjusted puppies. He is housebroken, happy, calm, and SMART. My service dog trainer is very impressed with his willingness and eagerness to learn, his bond with me, and his calm and kind demeanor. I can easily recommend working with them based on the wonderful experience I had with them and the fabulous puppy I feel blessed to call family.

    Marina and Josh were so responsive and knowledgeable about standard poodles. You can tell the way they took care of the puppies they really care about them.  They would post pictures and update me how Bodi was doing all the time.  I loved seeing how he was doing. They are awesome people.  Everything they did to take care of the puppies was just right from weining them to potty training them to loving them. We got the best little boy we could have ever hoped for. You can not go wrong working with them and any of the puppies they have. We are thinking of getting another one from the new litter they have, that are bumadoodles. They one we already have is a standard poodle and he needs a little friend. He is so very very smart and handsome. Im so happy to have worked with them and would highly recommend them.  I wish I knew how to get a couple pictures on here of my wonderful little big boy! Thank you Marina and Josh for making my experience wonderful!

    We are very glad that we chose Marina and Josh for breeders to purchase our poodle. We reserved him shortly after being born, and they shared updates often. When we picked him up, they spent a lot of time with us explaining current routines and products that they were using, etc. It is very evident that they love their dogs and take great care of them! Our poodle is getting so big. He is very healthy and well behaved.
