Doodles Galore!
We are able to offer a wide variety of different Doodle Breeds due to our extensive and amazing family & guardian home circle! Because some of our dogs are in Guardian Homes or with Family members, some of them we will only breed when we have a waitlist of 5 or more.
We take pride in matching people & families with the perfect type doodle that will be perfect for them or their family!
Some Doodles make better service dogs, while others are better suited for apartment/condo or farm living, & everything in between!
If you are not sure which type of Doodle will best suite you, we are here to help! Thats right, we will take the time to match you up to the Doodle Breed that will be ideal for your lifestyle. We will just need some information about your lifestyle & living situation (nothing personal), so we can help you find the one that will fit into that, the best!
If we do not have the Doodle Breed that matches up the best to you, we will gladly refer you to someone that does & assist in anyway we can to help make the process as simple as possible!
Remember, we do not over breed our dogs & take pride in having well socialized puppies. This takes alot of time & devotion to not only our dogs, but the puppies they have, as well. So we have minimal litters available each year & some may require being placed on our wait-list. To find out more about this, get with us! Covid has altered how we handle our waitlists over the past several months.

The hybrid designer breeds were created to introduce specific attributes associated with certain breeds & produce dogs that would boast the traits of their purebred parents but with a lower risk of breed specific health issues. These guys are highly intelligent & very eager to please, making training usually a breeze. They are wonderful family dogs, typically a quite dog, that has a playful fun & silly side.
These are gorgeous & highly intelligent dogs that are perfect for most that struggle with allergies. They do not shed, but will need regular brushing to maintain their long coat & usually professional grooming every few months.
The Sheepadoodle is a very fun & loving dog that does excellent with children & other animals. They make amazing companions & are very loyal to their family. A Sheepadoodle makes an awesome watchdog, as they are typically a quite dog, so when they bark, there is usually a good reason & they are trying to to let you know something is up. However, due to their fun loving personality, calm demeanor, & lack of aggressiveness as a whole, they do not make good guard dogs.
Sheepadoodles are moderately active dogs & require minimal exercise & play time, each day. When they are puppies, they will need slightly more than once they become older. They do well living in an apartment or condo, as long as they are able to take occasional moderate walks & trips to the dog park. They do enjoy the outdoors & love water, so even though apartment living is ok, they should be taken on outings and have access to the outdoors fairly often.
All Sheepadoodles love running & playing large yard from time to time & are huge fans of a swimming pool & the beach!
