Meet the breeder

I'm Shelly M., the breeder behind Whimsy Doodles located in Omaha, NE. We teach our puppies social skills starting at a young age by introducing them to all kinds of noises, smells, & different surfaces. Our puppies come with a 1 year limited Health warranty, a microchip, vet check, dewormed, 1st set of vaccines & a care package from us.

Q. & A. with Shelly

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always been enamored with dogs. My parents used to show Dobermans & a cousin used to show and breed shelties. I have always been drawn to breeding. I just needed to find the right breed to do so. My son became so allergic to shedding animals that he was having asthma attacks. This started me on the path of "hypoallergenic" dogs.

  • What makes your program special?

    We are a small breeder who raise and sell mini Bernedoodles in our home. We have both parents who have been health tested. They are our forever dogs. We do not believe in mass producing puppies for profit. We focus on a well cared for, loved & socialized puppy that are to be family members for their new homes. We do everything possible to ensure the best possible puppy goes to you.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include mini and medium sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

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

    Our puppies include brown, red, sable, black, black and white, tri-color, phantom, blue merle, and merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
