More about Marilyn

  • Why Marilyn started breeding

    I got my first poodle in 2010. She was a chocolate brown poodle. Demised due to health reasons, I was heartbroken. I later decided to get another fur-baby family member and after doing some research, I fell in love with goldendoodles which is a mix of the poodle and golden retriever; two of the most smartest, intelligent, obedient, loyal, fun loving, and easy temperament breeds. I fell in love with and got my fur-baby Nola, a miniature apricot goldendoodle in December of 2019. I love how unique the doodles, their temperament, and how easy they are to train. My love for goldendoodles has grown into a passion to produce healthy, quality, well-rounded fur-baby goldendoodles for the next family,
