They’re breeding for profit. Remember that.


Many rescues are for profit too.

I encourage you to either find a purebred that suits your needs or look in a rescue if you are set on a doodle. No legit breeder of poodles, Goldens, labs, etc would consent to have their lines used in a doodle breeding program so you end up with dogs from inferior lines being used to produce puppies that vary wildly.

Also, they also aren't hypoallergenic and require a LOT of grooming. Like, a lot. Daily and a regular professional grooming cadence.


Don't any of you in the anti-doodle crowd ever get tired of this? Literally nobody cares about your post.

You don’t care about paying purebred prices for a mutt that has not been properly bred?

I could not possibly care less about purebred. Our goldendoodle is the perfect pet and worth every penny.

The city/county pounds aren't. That's where my poodle x came from. I dunno how he ended up there, but I'm glad I got him, he's brilliant.

Sorry you feel that way. I am pro responsible dog ownership which is why doodle breeding is a concern to me and many others. I think it's really irresponsible and selfish to pay a puppy mill to keep dogs in abusive conditions to pump out these poorly bred puppies, especially when these breeders aren't up front about what kind of dogs they are producing. Also, I do think a lot of folks aren't aware of why doodle breeding can be a concern.

It doesn't mean your dog is bad or you are a bad person if you have one. It means that the doodle industry (and yeah, it's a money making industry at this point) has done a great job marketing doodles and that a lot of folks aren't educated on how to research good breeders. But I'm putting information out there in the hopes that with education more people can be responsible when it comes to choosing a dog. I've had rescues and pure bred dogs myself--both wonderful in their own ways--and I just don't understand why folks would choose to pay so much for a dog with none of the benefits of good breeding, unless in ignorance.

DMV Doodles in Nokesville. Small operation, only one or two litters per year. Opened up their home to us throughout the whole process. Our puppy is pretty perfect.

Any breeder who breeds dogs with the merle gene is not an ethical breeder.

100%, this breeder is dangerously unethical. Breeding merles (which is not naturally occurring in bernese mountain dogs or poodles) is a huge red flag. The only way to bring in that coat color to there lines is to introduce another breed and I certainly don't see that disclosure anywhere?

Plus, looking at their purebred dogs, they look to be of pretty poor stock.

Please give examples because the ones I can think of are nonprofits and openly share their tax information.

All these places sound like puppy mills. Which, if you breed enough dogs to *name your business for it*, you ARE a puppy mill. You just have better marketing and a cleaner yard. But you’re still a puppy mill, pumping out dogs from females who are essentially pregnant half their lives. Because literally no one in the business of breeding dogs only has one litter per mother and retires her to be a pet.


They are ALL puppy mills.

Why can't you do a search OP? It feels like someone asks this same question every week. It's getting old.
