About the Breeder

If you're interested in learning a little bit about me, my name is Elise and I have always been a dog enthusiast. As a baby, the literal first word that I spoke was the name of my black lab, Boris, and the first thing I wanted to grow up to be was... a dog!

 

Fast forward a decade, and my mom suddenly passed away. I was looking for some natural antidepressants, and that's when I discovered mini goldendoodles! I believe every dog is a therapy dog; some just work from home. When my husband, Kris, finally caved and gave me the OK to get a puppy, I started researching and learning about breeding best practices, dog genetics, and our little dog family grew from there. I am incredibly blessed to have found an experienced breeder who mentored me and shared her wealth of knowledge with me. My entire family is involved in raising the puppies, and I'm grateful they all love the pups as much as I do.  I have two young boys and someone who helps me take care of our puppies and parent dogs when they are with us. Most of our parent dogs live in guardian homes, but we love it when they come to visit and when we can meet up for Teddy Puppies reunions!

At Teddy Puppies, we raise exceptional mini Goldendoodles with care, purpose, and heart. Using trusted methods like Puppy Culture and the Empowered Breeder Curriculum, we nurture each pup through early neurological stimulation and temperament testing to support emotional stability and lifelong bonding.

Our puppies come with a two-year health guarantee, complimentary insurance, and lifetime support — including a promise to welcome them back if ever needed. Many go on to become service dogs, emotional support companions, and cherished family members. Learn more about our process and how to join our waitlist by clicking here.
