About our Puppies

We have been raising puppies in a loving family environment for over 12 years.  We started with Golden Retrievers which later evolved into Goldendoodles, in an attempt to reduce shedding.  Goldendoodles retain the friendly attributes of the retriever and the incredible smarts of a poodle.  By breeding F1B litters we have essentially eliminated shedding in our doodles.   Doodles are social, intelligent and highly trainable. They make excellent family pets.

An F1B doodle is produced by crossing an F1 Goldendoodle/Labradoodle back to a poodle.  F1B doodles have a higher success rate of non-shedding and are recommended for families with moderate to severe allergies.  The F1B has 75% poodle genetics which makes this generation one of the most hypo-allergenic.  The curlier, non-shedding coat requires regular grooming every 8-10 weeks depending on your desired length of hair.

Our Puppies

All of our puppies are born and raised in our home; we own the parents – they are our family pets.  The puppies are handled daily by our children and will come well socialized.   They will have begun crate training as well as working hard on toileting outside. We only allow visits after puppies are 6-7 weeks of age and the risk or illness or injury has greatly decreased.  We usually prefer them to have their vaccinations prior as well.  Thank you for understanding!

Our puppies come in a variety of colours: white, cream, apricot, brown, black, merle, phantom and abstract.   Puppies start at $1800 and up, unless noted.  I usually have a waiting list before the puppies are born.  I will contact potential buyers who have made a deposit around 3-4 weeks, so they can choose based on their preference of color, gender etc.

Our puppies are ready to leave our home for their forever families at 8 weeks. They will come with a puppy pack, which includes their vet record/shots, microchipped, sample of their puppy food, a small toy as well as a little towel with their mothers scent.

The puppies are sold with a no-breed contract, which will be available for signing upon picking up your puppy. Your new puppy will be need to be spayed/neutered by 8 months of age. 

A $400 non-refundable deposit paid by Interac E-transfer will hold your puppy.  I will not hold puppies without a deposit, sorry!

We have many repeat buyers. If you’ve purchased a forever friend from us before and you’re back again for another precious pet~ thank you!

Such is the case with a spring-seeded rye-vetch cover crop. Needless to say, we’ll be trying to find a plot on the farm each year to repeat this experiment!
