Q. & A. with Bethany
Why did you start breeding?
My husband and I started a small breeding program with our two Goldendoodles. When we adopted our first doodle we could not believe how great she was. Goldendoodles are very loyal, do not shed like other dogs, and are just an all-around great dog. We started with our breeding program with so much excitement, and love hearing from our pups families years after adopting.What makes your program special?
We take a lot of pride in sending our pups home healthy and happy. We work very well with the future families and just genuinely care for our puppies and what families they go to. We make sure that we feel comfortable with the families before sending them to their forever homes at 8 weeks. We love our pups and want the best future for them.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.
