Karla made the process of getting my puppy easy by providing me with the information needed. She was very organized and was always willing to answer any questions I had about the process. Knowing that the parents are genetically tested also helped ensure me that I would have a healthy pup. I would 100% recommend Karla if you are looking for a breeder who makes you feel comfortable with bringing a new family member home.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience getting my Golden Doodle from Karla! My puppy is absolutely adorable — even cuter than in the pictures. He came with all his paperwork, proof of vet visit, and detailed care instructions for grooming, feeding, and adjusting to his new home. You can tell he was well-socialized and loved before coming to me; he fit right in with my other dogs from day one. Karla was wonderful to work with — kind, responsive, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for puppy!

We had such a wonderful experience working with Karla! From the moment we started the process, she went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and confident about bringing our sweet puppy Betty home.
What really stood out was Karla’s patience and kindness during our travel process. Since we were flying, we had to find an airline-approved carrier—and believe it or not, it took us three tries to get the right one! Each time we ordered the wrong carrier, Karla personally checked it, confirmed it wouldn’t meet the airline’s standards, and even helped us return it without any hassle. She never made us feel rushed or embarrassed—just supported and cared for.
That level of dedication says so much about the kind of breeder she is. Betty came to us healthy, happy, and full of personality—you can tell she was raised with love. We’re so grateful for Karla’s honesty, professionalism, and genuine care through the entire process. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a sweeter pup.
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.
