Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind RockyRiverDoodles located in Concord, NC. Having a dog in our lives is such a blessing. We find so much fulfillment in providing that same companionship to other homes! Our puppies become integral members of our family. They’re a daily part of everything we do until they’re ready to join their forever families.

Kelly’s experience

  • About Kelly

    We’re empty nesters with time on our hands. We have two wonderful dogs one a Standard Poodle and the other a Wheaten. They have such a great disposition, very loving and very obedient.

  • What makes Kelly’s program special

    We breed/raise them in a family environment. They will be socialized and exposed to early scent introduction, neuro stimulation and noice desensitizing.
