Our Family

Welcome to our family!

Family-oriented puppies begin with a puppy-oriented family.

I’m the eldest daughter in a large household – I have many hands to help me, large and small!

Where We Are:

Our family breeding program is based in south central Minnesota. In September 2022, I married the love of my life! I now live east of Eau Claire, Wisconsin and we have two branches of our program. My family and I are completely devoted to caring for and raising puppies. Everyone takes part — it’s our lifestyle!

Who We Are:

With the eager support of the whole crew (my husband and me in WI, & my parents and siblings in MN), we specialize in giving our families a full, personal puppy experience— from birth announcements, to FaceTimes with your puppy, to puppy visits in our homes for the whole family to enjoy. We offer exclusive, limited boarding for our Doodle families, and keep in touch for a lifetime to support your puppy journey.

With Love and Care:

We have heated and cooled indoor puppy space, and our puppies are hand raised from birth to adoption in our home, where we can give them the 24-hour hands on care, attention, and the one-of-the-family bonding they deserve. We utilize elements of the Puppy Culture method, and the Baxter & Bella training program. With our family-focused lifestyle, there is always someone home to snuggle puppies, work on training, or play fetch.


You can visit our Puppy Nursery page to learn more about how our puppies are raised with intention and love. To learn more about adopting a puppy, visit our Adoption Process page!


Listed below are the bios and health information of each of our dogs. They are an integral part of our family life.

As family pets, each of my beloved dogs gets family cuddle and play time every day! They are gentle with children and adults of all ages. Each of my dogs has had obedience training, and they have the run of the family acreage with ethical ecollar fencing. Because health and wellness are my priority, I feed my dogs premium food, treats, and supplements from a holistic private-label company. Each dog has had a variety of preliminary health testing before joining my program. I utilize OFA, PennHIP, and genetic testing through Embark, PawPrint, and Vetnostics.
