I saw my first Goldendoodles (at Usk Agricultural Show) in 2012 and of course, fell in love and wanted one! I decided to breed a litter of F1 generation Goldendoodles from one of my home-bred Golden Retriever girls and a fabulous Standard Poodle stud dog who was health-tested, beautiful - a Cruft's qualifier no less - and had a fantastic temperament too. Looks, brains and beauty!
Bo is our original Goldendoodle from that litter and was born in May 2013.
We breed a small amount of litters a year and are receiving emails and phone calls daily, either through word of mouth or in internet search engines.
We live in the Charente department of south-west France on a livestock and arable farm (300 acres or 130 hectares) with pedigree Limousin cattle, pedigree Charollais sheep, pedigree Welsh ponies plus our dogs, cats and chickens!
We insist on meeting the new family at 8 weeks on collection. Most of our pups leave us at 8 weeks but it is sometimes possible for us to keep them for a little longer if required. We obviously make a small charge for this.
After thorough checks to ensure the pups are going to the right homes, we are happy to export our pups. We ask that you double check your puppy can leave at 8 weeks. We do not keep puppies till 12/15 weeks.
Example of countries that need to wait till 15 weeks : Spain, Italy, UK, Germany..
All my dogs live with me and my family on our farm in South-west France. Our puppies grow up in my home where they’re always at the heart of the family, with plenty of human contact, that introduces them to all the things they need in these very important early weeks, to ensure you’re bringing a confident, well-adjusted puppy into your family.
Puppy choice is done at 5 weeks via video-call (ex: whatsapp) with collection in person at 8 weeks. The order of choice is done either by date on the inquiry form or in order of deposit received. Families with severe allergies may take priority in some cases.
We do not allow visits to the elevage at any other time due to health and security risks to our dogs, puppies and our family.
