Q. & A. with Denise
Why did you start breeding?
I grew up in a dog breeding household, helping to raise my family's toy breed underfoot. In my teens I started training dogs, and trained professionally for about 10 years. I bred a few litters and then I started having my own human babies, so I took a long break, and am now returning to breeding 30 years later.What makes your program special?
Doodles are my passion project, and with my adult daughters' help I am excited to bring our delightful Doodles into the world and into homes as family companions.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are petite size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, chocolate, red, apricot, and cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
