I have fully immersed myself in the animal science and veterinary industry. I firmly believe that education, coupled with a solid foundation in biology and dog breeding, is paramount for success. It's this commitment to ongoing learning and expertise that fuels my passion and drives my dedication to producing healthy, well-adjusted puppies. Each litter becomes a new chapter in my journey, fostering continuous learning and growth as a breeder.
RAISED IN OUR HOME
Puppies are raised with our family in our home and involved in our daily lives. We adhere to a schedule similar to a typical family to ensure a smoother transition to your home.
BIOSECURITY PROGRAM
A biosecurity program is implemented when entering the home to protect puppies from pathogens during their most vulnerable stages of development.
EXPOSURE TO NEW PEOPLE
Puppies are introduced to children of various ages, senior citizens, and new people to provide enrichment and exposure.
VARIOUS CHALLENGES
Puppies meet small animals like chickens and cats, climb stairs, master eye contact, and waiting quietly for meals.
EARLY NEUROLOGICAL STIMULATION
ENS is critical for development to increase performance and learning capacity. Early scent introduction stimulates the senses and promotes neural plasticity and growth.
PUPPY CULTURE METHOD
A very reputable raising method that provides lessons and stimulation to produce engaging, well-rounded puppies who are eager to learn.
Our Philosophy
What Makes a Goldendoodle Amazing
Goldendoodles
A Goldendoodle embodies the best of both its Golden Retriever and Poodle ancestry. This versatile breed is known for its high intelligence, friendly demeanor, and affectionate nature, making them perfect additions to any family. Their versatility ensures they can fit into many different lifestyles and roles.
Our breeding program aims to produce pups with these desirable traits. They should have a medium drive and a fleece coat which is
easier to maintain.
Genetics
Strong genetics are the building blocks to healthy dogs. The key principals of crossbreeding improve the gene pool for the breed by increasing genetic variability which is often lacking in purebred dog breed populations.
By broadening the gene pool, we can improve immune response, reproductive outcomes, and reduce the incidence of heritable diseases. For more information on the improved health outcomes Goldendoodles offer, read GANA's "Why Own a Goldendoodle?'
About GANA

To uphold their commitment, GANA manages a registry for dogs, facilitating the monitoring of health testing outcomes. Moreover, the club remains steadfast in keeping the stud books open, fostering the infusion of new genetic contributions to enrich the breed's diversity and disease resilience.
What Our Clients Say
Notes From Happy Pawrents
Mandi and John were kind, helpful, honest, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. It was obvious when we went to pick out our pup that they were raised in a nurturing home environment. Mandi was amazing with communication and “pupdates” prior to us meeting the puppies. We could not be happier with our decision to get our Macy from such a great breeder. If you are looking for a healthy, happy, trainable puppy, we highly recommend Mandi’s Doodles!
How I Met Your Puppy, Winter 2021
