Q. & A. with Christine
Why did you start breeding?
We started under the mentorship of my parents at Uphoff Pets, who have been breeding for 30+ years. We started because we love dogs but have found that we love the people just as much.
What makes your program special?
We truly believe that God connects the right family with the right pup. And we also believe that once you get a pup from WoodHaven Pups, you are family! All of our mamas and daddies have been genetically health tested and are clear of all genetic diseases, which makes for amazing and healthy pups. The temperament of our pups is outstanding, great family companions, emotional support animals!
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Cockapoo puppies are mini size. Cavapoo puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Cockapoo puppies include merle, sable, red, golden, buff and white, and black. Cavapoo puppies include merle, tri-color, sable, red, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
