Q. & A. with Betty

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My journey into dog breeding started simply—with a deep love for dogs and a desire to share that joy with others. What began as a personal connection with my first Goldendoodle and Shih Tzu quickly turned into a passion. I was fascinated by their unique personalities, intelligence, and loving nature. Over time, I realized how much of a difference a responsible, caring breeder can make—not just in the life of a puppy, but in the happiness of the families they join. That’s when I decided to learn everything I could about ethical breeding practices, health testing, socialization, and proper care. Today, I’m proud to raise healthy, well-loved puppies that bring joy into people’s lives.

  • What makes your program special?

    I focus on quality over quantity, raising each litter with hands-on care and attention in a home environment. All my parent dogs are health-tested to ensure strong genetics, and puppies are well-socialized with people, sounds, and routines from day one. I prioritize temperament, health, and a perfect family match—because bringing a puppy home should be a joyful, lifelong bond, not just a purchase.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Bernedoodle puppies are standard size. Goldendoodle puppies include miniature and medium sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Bernedoodle puppies include brown and white and tri-color. Shih Tzu puppies are tricolor. Goldendoodle puppies include red and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
