Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind The Doodle Den located in Gibsonville, NC. We're newer breeders starting a small program. We hope to help provide families with quality puppies as we continue to learn & grow! Our dogs stole our hearts right from the start and we found ourselves wanting to get more involved. Breeding was a natural next step and we haven’t looked back since!

Makayla’s experience

  • What makes Makayla’s program special

    Our parents are genetically tested and cleared. All puppies are raised under BAB curriculum with Early Neurological Stimulation and scent exposure. We begin potty training around 3 weeks and crate training between 6 and 7 weeks.
