Certified Breeder of Bernedoodles

Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Best Family Doodles located in South Mills, NC. We are a family of seven breeding dogs on a small scale. Our pups are bred for temperament, coat, and lifelong companionship. We put a lot of care into socializing our puppies so they can transition easily into their new lives with their forever families. In our breeding program, good health and temperament are essential, cuteness is guaranteed, and lots of love is always included!

Q. & A. with Nichole

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have an incredible best friend named Binx! She is small and fluffy and thinks I’m the best thing in the world! My dad was a breeder for many years, so it’s always been a part of my story! When people began asking if I’d ever breed Binx, I decided to go for it. I lost a nephew to stillbirth (I was in attendance) and that experience ended my birth work with humans. Two weeks later began my passion for breeding dogs. I intend to stay small-scale and only breed family pets! A litter here and there is all I need to keep the spark of birth alive and the love of dogs spreading!

  • What makes your program special?

    We are a very small program, and our dogs are in-home pets! We are more set on providing loved family pets than pumping puppies out in mass. They are started early with training and sent off with lots of care and time invested. We have high expectations for our puppies and strive to place each one in an enriching and loving home!

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
