Welcome to Destination Doodles! We are so happy you found us! We are a small, loving, in-home, family breeder. We do this because we love it. We are an active family that loves to do lots of different things together. Our dogs have brought so much happiness to our home and we love watching our puppies bring happiness to others by bringing joy, laughter and warming hearts and homes with love and companionship. We also love working together, as a family, to raise puppies. We live in the beautiful state of Utah and have 5 children and two sons-in-law, a daughter-in-law, and four beautiful grandchildren. We all take part with the puppies and mama and daddy dogs in some way.
We are passionate about our dogs and about every single puppy born here! Each puppy we raise becomes a huge part of our family and is raised as if it were our own. We carefully nurture, train, and raise puppies to be lifetime family members destined for your loving home. Our puppies are always with us and are well socialized with many people of all ages and with our other dogs. We live on a 1/2 acre with a fenced yard, ideal for raising puppies. Our amazing Hailey and her husband Jon also raise some of our puppies at their home just under two miles from us. We work closely together with all puppies and litters.
Our puppies are whelped and raised inside our home and live in our master bedroom, dining room, main floor family room. They hear family noises, smell the smells of cooking and are constantly included and watched over and loved. We also have a bonus room, or a dedicated puppy nursery in the center of our home where we have lots of playtime and exposures of different items and toys, etc. We don't use our garage, outside separate kennels or detached nurseries to keep dogs or puppies in. Although we have a garage and basement, we can't overstate how strongly we feel about having all of our puppies raised inside our home with us and being treated as family members from the start. We have many stimulating toys, sounds, activities, etc., we perform daily with our puppies so they are prepared for many experiences they may encounter in life. We also begin a good, structured foundation for potty and crate-training. Most of our puppies are doing well with potty training and are sleeping through the night in crates when they go home. Our mamas are family and are precious to us and are always treated like queens. They are free to roam our home and are not boxed into whelping rooms, stalls, nurseries or left alone. They are very loved and treated with the upmost respect. We health test our parents and honor our mamas by not over breeding them, we give them healthy diets, we bathe and groom them often, and give them an abundance of love and attention. Most of our mamas live with our family or close family friends and several of them have Instagram accounts where you can follow and watch them living as happy and loving dogs.
We are proud members of the Good Dog Breeder Association. We have been thoroughly screened and approved as responsible breeders.
Our dogs are all OFA tested and genetically (DNA) tested and screened for potential inherited diseases. We only breed dogs that pass these qualifications.
Lots of consideration and planning takes place before breeding any parents to ensure parents are compatable and our puppies are of excellent health, great temperament as well as beautiful.
We give a 2 year health guarantee.
All our puppies are raised using Puppy Culture and BAB Protocols. These are professional and proven training courses, starting at birth, that dramatically shapes a puppy's personality, intelligence, demeanor, and health.

We also use Early Neurological Stimulation which has been proven to increase/strengthen puppy's:
After puppies "graduate" from ENS, we do a daily 10 step handling that is specific for their age. This is important as puppies are handled (age appropriately) they become comfortable with it and are more patient and tolerant to touch, grooming, children, etc. the rest of their lives. We also teach and encourage you to continue to do it especially the first 16 weeks of life.
