We have THE most amazing Goldendoodle from this breeder. We loved her so much we decided to be a guardian family for her sibling. We are absolutely in love with both dogs. The temperament of both dogs is absolutely amazing and sweet. They are healthy and beautiful dogs.

I got my dog from here and it was the best experience ever! The staff was very friendly making sure I had the right dog for me. I wasn’t pressured to get a dog and felt like I was able to make the decision on my own. After going scammed this place was truly a miracle to find. I love my dog and she is surrounded by care and affection

(Updated with pictures) We just brought our goldendoodle home from PPD one week ago. The entire process was outstanding! I did a ton of research when it came to finding the right place to adopt our new puppy. From the very beginning when I was navigating their website, to the very end when we walked out of the door with our new puppy, it felt like we were a part of Christine and Jennifer’s family. We talked on social media, over email, text and even a couple phone calls at odd hours with questions…it felt like someone was always reachable and was always happy and willing to talk.Their facilities were the cleanest I’ve ever seen; they go to great lengths to protect the health of the puppies and their other dogs. They even have a vet tech employed on site. When we took our puppy for her first vet check, the vet was very impressed with her vaccination schedule and deworming process having already been started!We are a week into having our Finley girl home and she’s been amazing! It makes you feel good when you know you made the right decision on something as big as this. Paw Pad Doodles, we are so grateful for you! Christine, thank you for starting a “hobby” 20 years ago!UPDATE: We are about 4 months in from bringing our F1b English mini goldendoodle home and we still couldn’t be happier. Finley has been a great dog - easy to train, the best temperament, and she’s still just as cute as she was when we brought her home. How about that beautiful English cream colored coat?!!?

Simply the best. Could not recommend them more highly.It was a huge decision for my family to get our first dog, and after a deep analysis of breeders, PawPad came out on top, and my best friend who is a veterinarian agreed. Jennifer, Christine and the whole team were kind, professional, responsive and genuinely interested in the right match. You can tell they love their dogs deeply - that was clear every step of the way, from early questions to years later as we’ve stayed in touch. They were sensitive and so thoughtful to our special needs. I love that they provide photos, videos, temperament assessment, items for beginners and training support. Our girl Watson is the love of lives and our absolute joy bringer and we could not be more grateful.

We have purchased two goldendoodles from Paw Pad Doodles and they are just the best! Wonderful, family-owned kennel, they love breeding and caring for their puppies. Both of our doodles are just the most amazing dogs, great temperament, healthy, loving dogs. We have recommended them to so many people. Just the BEST!

We just recently purchased our new toy bernedoodle from The Paw Pad and the entire process was amazing from start to finish. I couldn’t recommend The Paw Pad enough!! The entire staff is very friendly and so knowledgeable. We are brand new to being dog owners and they were able to give us all the information we needed. This was such a change and a commitment and we wanted to ensure we were ready to bring the puppy into our life. Jennifer was always available to answer questions and and was very detail oriented. They provided us with a whole list of items to purchase, the timeline of the purchase process and prepared us for all that we needed to do when picking up the dog and after.I went to visit the facility and meet the dog we wanted and it was SO clean. Christine greeted me and made me feel right at home when meeting the puppy. They take great care of it and go the extra step to ensure that to the point of ensuring any visitors clean the shoes. This is huge for customers and the reassurance that they are purchasing from a great place.They provided us with ALL the details on the puppy. Even to the extent of his temperament. We were able to view all the weeks of him growing via videos and pictures. Any question I asked, they were able to answer! We also live in CO, so we had a few options on the delivery, and the team bends over backwards to make sure it fits in your schedule and are so accommodating! I highly recommend them! Will report back once we have the pup home!

This is the best breeder we’ve ever worked with! She is honest and caring and produces the best family dogs we’ve ever had! We love our Doodles from The Paw Pad and we have loved working with Christine (the owner).Our Golden Doodles are healthy, sweet, loving, and have been easy to train. Our home would not be complete without one. If you’re looking to add a doodle to your family I very highly recommend The Paw Pad Doodles.

We are on goldendoodle #2 from Paw Pad! There's a reason everyone's doodle seems to come from Paw Pad. Their dogs are healthy, well cared-for, great temperaments, and the owners are so patient and informative in the puppy selection process -- they want you to find the best match for your family as much as you do! If you're looking for a doodle, the search is over!

We have gotten two golden doodles from the Paw Pad and I can't thank them enough for the best dogs! Jennifer + Christine were so helpful on making sure the pups were a right fit for our family. Our pups are so amazing with people, especially kids, and other dogs. They are the happiest + the healthiest. If you are looking for a pup that comes from a place that cares, go through the Paw Pad! You won't be disappointed!

The Paw Pad Doodles made our experience of choosing and getting our first puppy absolutely painless and very informative, especially during a pandemic! We are so excited to welcome our puppy into our family and for all of the years ahead thanks to Paw Pad.If you are thinking about a goldendoodle or bernedoodle, Paw Pad is THE BEST and Jennifer/Christine make everything very easy throughout the process!!

Love love love my Charlie boy! He has the sweetest temperament and is such a joy to have in our lives! This is an ethical breeder who truly cares about the well being of the parents and the puppies. I highly recommend them!

Most professional and friendly staff I could’ve asked for. They made a potentially stressful process go so smoothly for us. We were amazed at how clean and well organized everything was. Once I convince my husband to get a second puppy, I know we will definitely be going back to The Paw Pad Doodles!

Coming up on one year with our mini golden doodle Nellie and could not be happier with this new member of our family. Paw Pads was outstanding to deal with. Great communication and easy transaction.

Amazing, attentive owners and care team. Lovely, caring people and spotless, welcoming facility. Thoroughly communicative since day one. They came highly recommended by two different families and now I can see why!

The Paw Pad Doodles raises the BEST doodles! We picked up Sully in May and the facility and people there are phenomenal. Sully trained so easily, is so friendly around everyone, and has had no health issues. He looks different that most doodles. He prances and has a great build and coat, almost making him look like a show dog. The Paw Pad really cares about their puppies. We couldn’t have picked a better puppy or a better breeder! The only thing that has thrown us off is how many people ask about him! We had no idea so many people would want to know all about him! We are so happy with our puppy!

Great communication throughout our process of getting a medium sized F1b golden doodle. We absolutely love our new addition to the family. Even after only a year, we couldn't imagine our lives without her. Thank you.

I have three Paw Pad Goldendoodles, and through the years, I have referred several of my friends and family members, who now also have their own Paw Pad Doodles. After our experiences with Christine and her daughter, Jennifer, we all agree that we could never go anywhere else for a Doodle! Mine are 14 and 11 yrs, and our newest is 10 months old. That type, and that many YEARS of loyalty, do not just happen. I first met Christine 15 years ago when I came upon her website after Googling “big dogs that don’t shed”. Christine and Jennifer are kind and honest dog lovers. They work hard and they truly appreciate every one of their clients. If I weren’t 200 miles away, I’d go there and just hang out with the puppies!

We went to meet our new pup today! Christine was so friendly and knowledgeable. The facility was very clean and our kids were thrilled to see where the puppies could play. 5 out of 5!

We did a lot of research over 14 years ago and decided to get an F1 Goldendoodle from Christine. We loved our boy Bentley so much we adopted another pup from her. Those boys lived a long life and we now have 2 more from The Paw Pad Doodles. We love Christine and her family and trust them. They truly care❤

Nine years ago I started researching different breeders for English Golden Doodles. I literally researched all states and Canada. It took me a year to finally decide on a breeder. We currently have two Paw Pad Golden Doodles (8 and 7 years young). Keith, Christine and staff are very professional, do extensive testing on the parents, provide excellent care for their dogs and strive to provide families with new furry family members to love on. Beside adopting two amazing doodles, we also have become part of a Facebook PPDoodle family that is awesome!!!!

I recommend the paw pad doodles to all my friends looking for golden doodles, or bernedoodles. Have had nothing but great experiences with this breeder. All the dogs that myself, and other family members, and friends, have gotten from the paw pad doodles have been nothing but healthy, well behaved, and adorable. Highly recommend.

I have an F1b Standard Goldendoodle that is now 5 years old from The Paw Pad Doodles. She is by far the best dog I have ever had. The experience from deposit to pick up was the most professional and comfortable experience. Very happy.

They raise the best Goldendoodles ever! We’ve had two, 1 a miniature (Miley) and the other a standard (Zoey). Zoey just crossed the Rainbow 🌈 Bridge yesterday after gracing our family with her love after almost 16 years. If ever there were a perfect dog, it had to be Zoey. Our hearts are broken, but we will be back to get another to 💕 love❣️

I have talked to 3 separate people who got dogs from 3 separate litters spanning multiple years and all 3 of us have brought home puppies with giardia. This breeder doesn't seem to do anything about controlling giardia and rather just accepts it as an unfortunate side effect of breeding puppies. Many other breeders go to great lengths to avoid exposing their puppies to harmful diseases like giardia. When I contacted them about our puppy having giardia, they seemed to play it off like it's no big deal and we can go to the vet and get medication for it and it'll clear right up. Well he has been dealing with giardia on and off since we got him about 3 months ago. When I pay $2500 for a puppy, I don't expect to bring him home and then have to pay hundreds of dollars for continued giardia treatment and vet visits. So when you consider buying a puppy from Paw Pad Goldendoodles, you should also factor in the hundreds of dollars in vet bills and giardia medication that will undoubtedly come along with one of their puppies. Don't get me wrong, our puppy is adorable and amazing, but the way this breeder approaches giardia is disappointing.

Words can't express how thankful I am that I found Paw Pad Doodles to get our first puppy. They are caring people that do all they can to make sure you get a loving healthy pup.

No ethical breeder will EVER EVER breed doodles!! Doodles are mutts and should not be bred. extremely unethical practice

I got my mini f-b1 red golden doodle 9 years ago and she is a healthy happy dog. I find this period of crisis we are going through is better if you have pets to care for
