Our Breeding Program
We are a family establishment located in the rural Alberta prairies of Three Hills.
We are focused on breeding healthy Doodles with beautiful color and coat designs. We have studied color coat genetics in canines since 2020, and we continue to educate ourselves on all DNA advancements labs have to offer. In carefully selecting our adults dogs according to their color coat make up, we eliminate any guess work on how their puppies’ coats will be designed. Along with acquiring all their DNA, we can see what coat types (curly, wavy and furnishings) our adults carry and pass on to their offspring.
All of our dogs are loved as pets first before we define them as “breeding dogs”. Their overall health is very important to us and we do not compromise any of their health for our breeding purposes. For this reason, the wait time for some litters could be 6 months to 1 year.
Our dogs are from top quality bloodlines and pass our health requirements prior to breeding. They are tested for all disorders common within their breeds and pass all checks prior to breeding. Because we take such efforts into the overall health of our puppies, all of our litters come with a Health Guarantee.
We love and are very familiar will all the breeds and the mixes that we offer, primarily focusing on Bernedoodles and extensions from this breed. Combined we have 20+ years of dog ownership and training experience. Each one of our dogs is part of a family life and loved as a family pet, and the best interest of our animals remains our top priority.
Our DNA testing serves three essential purposes:
1. Coat Makeup
It helps us understand the coat genetics of different breeds, enabling us to predict the coat types of the offspring. This is particularly significant when creating non-shedding breeds through doodle mixes.
2. Color Genetics
We explore the world of dog coat color genetics, utilizing research and studying various genotypes. This enables us to strategically select dogs with known color profiles and predict the colors their offspring will inherit, a crucial aspect of our breeding planning.
3. Hereditary Health
DNA testing allows us to identify hereditary diseases and disorders that could impact a dog’s quality of life. Before allowing our breeding dogs to reproduce, we ensure they are free from any such conditions, prioritizing the well-being of our dogs and their offspring.
We prioritize the well-being of all our dogs, offering top-quality care. Our key focus lies in establishing strong relationships with prospective buyers, ensuring their success when welcoming a new puppy. We take pride in producing healthy puppies free from hereditary diseases or disorders. We start our pups off with ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation) and ESI (Early Scent Introduction) to help them handle different sounds to build them up to be confident dogs.
As a part of our service, every puppy comes with a complimentary take-home bag including Acana puppy food plus a coupon for your bag of Acana puppy food. The bag also contains a blanket, gently rubbed on both mom and littermates and a Snuggle Puppy plush toy equipped with a heat pack and artificial heartbeat to aid the transition to a new home. We offer a 30-day free trial of Trupanion Pet insurance. To support house training, we include litter pan training supplies. Furthermore, our puppies come with a 1-year health guarantee, initial health checks by licensed veterinarians, their first vaccinations and deworming, and lifetime breeder support.
