About Us – Goldendoodle and Sheepadoodle Breeder located in Alton, Iowa

Meet Jill and the Fam

We work hard to make sure we are more than just your average Goldendoodle and Sheepadoodle breeder. We’re a team of people who strive to raise the healthiest, well socialized and balanced puppies for our families. We have over 10 years of experience in breeding hypoallergenic doodlees. We started out by breeding Mini Goldendoodles and after 4 years and multiple request from families that already had puppies from us, we started to breed Bernedoodle and Sheepadoodle puppies. We began following other breeders, did hours of research, and asked a seasoned breeder to mentor us as we started our new Bernedoodle and Sheepadoodle program.

Being responsible, dedicated breeders takes a ton of time, money and sacrifice but we love our dogs and what we do. We work around the clock to make sure our facility is in top notch condition and our adults and puppies have nothing but the best life here at Poodles 2 Doodles. 

We are confident that whether you are looking for a Merle Goldendoodle, Abstract Goldendoodle, Mini Sheepadoodle or Standard Sheepadoodle, you have come to the best breeder with the healthiest and cutest puppies around!

Josh and I work together full time to ensure every aspect of this business is handled professionally and in a timely manner. We enjoy everything this business offers from daily chores, to vet runs, to studying genetics and pedigrees, but we could never do this alone. We have an amazing team of people that work behind the scene to make Poodles 2 Doodles all we are!

Our Full-time Puppy Handlers

We guarantee a puppy that loves kids and is use to being handled. Josh and I believe in teaching our children how to work and be a part of something. Our 5 year old twins Brayleigh and Bryson take their job as puppy handlers very seriously!

Our children are very much involved with every aspect of the business. They lay right in the whelping box with all our mamas when the puppies are very small and our mama dogs never mind when a little human crawls into her space. They will also help feed and clean up the nursery when puppies are being weaned, but by far their favorite part is socializing them. When you come to get your puppy, often you will find your puppy in the arms of one of them. We learnt that having them involved when puppies leave has been the most helpful for them to understand why they have to leave here and go to their new homes.

Kadence and Cole

Kadence and Cole complete our team with their love of puppies and talents. Kadence with the help of her husband, Cole do all our puppy pictures here at Poodles 2 Doodles!

They do individual pictures of all our puppies at 1 week, 3 weeks, 5 weeks, and 7 weeks of age. They are also full time students at the local college so they both have full schedules.

Pictures are time consuming and puppies generally want to play instead of sit still, so we greatly appreciate all they do for us!
