Meet the breeder

I'm Cheri L., the breeder behind Sister Doodles located in Humboldt, MN. We take great pride in Sister Doodles and our puppies. All of our puppies are raised in our home and get handled daily.

Q. & A. with Cheri

  • Why did you start breeding?

    After loving our new Maltipoo addition we decided to add two other purebred poodles to our family. We have lots of friends and family in the area that breed. Our parents homeschool us so my mom works from home. This way she can work from home while doing what she loves, spending time with her family and all our furry family members as well. We loved it right away so decided to make it a business.
  • What makes your program special?

    All of our puppies are raised right in our home and are handled daily. Our females live right in our home and are treated like members of our family. When our females aren't mothering babies they are snuggled up on the couch with one of us getting tons of love and attention. We take pride in our business and love when customers come out and meet our puppies, their mommas, and see our operation.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    From the first contact with Cheri with sister Doodles was a wonderful experience. I was looking for a miniature Goldendoodle and saw the picture of Sebastian and the other puppies Cheri had. I knew that was the family I wanted to work with to get my new puppy. I can’t give Sister Doodles a high enough rating as a breeder. Being a family-run business gives the puppies a wonderful start to life. They are so well adjusted and trained and it makes it so much easier for the puppies to adjust to their new lives. During our first conversation, Cheri asked a lot of questions to learn more about me being a puppy owner. We then discussed her practices as a breeder and how she and her family became breeders. I felt like we had known each other forever by the time we finished our conversation. We both agreed that Sebastian would be a perfect fit for me. While I waited for my loving Sebastian to come home, Cheri sent daily videos of the puppies so I could watch him grow and advance. It was so cute watching him play with his mom, brothers and sisters. She kept me informed about how he was progressing in all the training stages. I could see all the love she has for these wonderful puppies. From the moment I met Sebastian, I knew we were the perfect match. He is so loving, affectionate and loves to cuddle. Sebastian is so well-behaved and has adjusted so well to his new home. Thank you, Cheri for giving me the best companion I could ever want. Sebastian is perfect. Sheila W Duluth, Minnesota

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
