Pupdate: I love to hear from my families who have gotten pups from me. Flynn was a bit of an extra challenge because he (and his siblings) have EXTRA big personalities. When a family contacted me about a Goldador and they had dog experience as well as lots of time and energy for a dog??? Flynn or Naween was my recommendation. After virtually meeting both Fynn was chosen. This is the message and pictures I got today.

"Hello! Just wanted you to know Flynn is soooooo loved. All of us just can’t get enough of him. He loves us back unconditionally. Thank you so much for this true treasure and gift"

Nothing makes me happier than matching people with their perfect fit. Yes, some are "just" companions, but I spend equal amount of time matching and trying to make it as successful as possible. He does still steal bread and his people think he is the best thing since sliced bread. So, it's all good.

Pupdate: Brutus has the whole dog park to himself, but he believes himself to be mostly human. So, this is how he is spending his time. Brutus and his brothers and sisters turned one on June 1. He is living his best life! Such a handsome dude!

Pupdate: Lexi is now competing in Rally Obedience! She loves agility at home, but sometimes decides to take a rest inside the tunnel when racing. Lol. She is 75% Pyrenees, but that doesn't mean she is too stubborn to learn.

Pupdate: I will never be able to thank you enough. Maggie blesses my heart all day every day

Pupdate: (This is why I started breeding and raising dogs to be support animals!)

Cocoa is the perfect canine friend for my son Christopher. I had quite a list of qualities I wanted in a dog for Christopher and Cocoa fulfills them all. Her size is right and her temperament is perfect. She is gentle, patient, and isn't spooked by all of Christopher's special equipment. She loves to go on walks with us and allows Christopher to hold the leash without running off. She is loyal to Christopher. When he is on the floor, she lays right beside him so he can touch her. She doesn't mind that his movements are not controlled or that he sometimes gets her hair caught in his fingers and hair gets pulled. When he is on the bed, she lays beside the bed. It was obvious from the beginning that Cocoa had been worked with and well cared for. We love her. She is a very special part of our family.

This is from Red's mom! Red is both a guardian dog and ESA to her family. Typically an ESA is for one person, but Red is there for everyone!

"I had to separate the lamb from his mama last night because every time he tried to nurse she'd head butt him or trample him. 😢
I put him in the barn in a pen, alone because I had no one to keep him company.
I fed him twice in the night and the second time the coyotes were really close and both dogs were very vocally protecting.
At 4 I went out and it was quiet. Red was laying up against the gate where the lamb is, and the lamb was laying up against the other side of the gate. She's such a good girl!"

This group!! Buttercup x Ronnie's "Game" litter. I am going to miss these little ones leaving soon. Out of the 11 there are 4 very strong service dog potentials and 5 more than very likely will be successful as any type of assistance animal. Only 2 are more "pet only". Just such cute babies!

Some are still looking for couches and when training officially begins their prices increase. I also have training options for someone not looking for a service dog, but still wanting an older puppy with extra training. 2 are staying for that option already.

Crate training began and next week we will add some leash training. They spend some time outside playing every day now that they have more vaccines. We still do not generally leave our property, but sometimes I do for meet ups with future homes.

Samson already has a family, but how cute is he?!? Such a sweet, sweet puppy. Loves attention to be pet. Loves other dogs as well. Just a darling puppy. He is a happy, happy puppy and I am sure his new people will be very happy to finally get him home!

Wingspan. F1B Goldendoodle born Jan 2. He is a stunning puppy. Just fabulous! He is outgoing, bold, but gentle and sweet too.

He shows excellent service dog potential and likely will be going into our service dog training program. We are looking for either a puppy raising home (no cost, but must live close) or a service dog potential/ assistance animal placement.

Not available as a pet or breeding program.

He is the biggest puppy out of his siblings. That doesn't mean he will end up being the biggest ,but is currently. It is unlikely he will be a small dog when full grown. So, he might be suited for some mobility type tasks.

Rummikub. F1B merle female Goldendoodle. Born Jan 2.

She shows great potential to be a service dog or therapy dog based on her evaluation.

She would also be a fabulous pet.

She will be started in a tier 2 training program soon if she doesn't find her forever family and likely be reserved for the non-profit service dog program I work with. But she could also be placed as a service dog potential.
