LITTLE MOUNTAIN DOODLE SLIDE SHOW OF OUR PUPPY FAMILIES

 
Our Family

Hi, Welcome to Little Mountain Doodles.  We are located in Myerstown, Pennsylvania.  Our names are Kevin and Bobbie Yoder and we are the owners.  Our family consist of 3 children,  our daughter, Meagan who is 7 and our son, Colin who is 4, and Talon,  the baby was born on November 13th.   

We also have 3 Golden Retrievers living in our home.  Our oldest is Haley, who is 9.  She is not breeding.  Our middle is Sedona, who is 6 and she is no longer breeding.  Our third is Emma and she just turned 3.  She is no longer breeding.  Our dogs are our pride and joy and they are every bit part of our growing family!

We also have 4 goldendoodles that have begun to breed in 2006 and also many new Golden Retriever mothers, including Ruby, Ginger, Jackie, Joy, Rose, Rosie, Roxy, Toffee, Lucy  who are also breeding moms in our program.  We also have a few new upcoming moms that are just babies yet and haven't begun to breed.  All of these mothers are in our guardian angel homes and are very much part of a family, just like the three mothers we have with us.  Once any of these moms have pups, all the pups will come to my home, once weaned, and begin more socialization within a  new environment.  The pups are free to leave me around 8-9 weeks old and go to their new homes.  Email for any questions, clarifying or concerns in regards to the above information.

Deciding to breed Goldendoodles was not a hard decision at all, we just love the breed and everything that goes with it.  It is exciting to see our pups grow into wonderful dogs and the excitement of the new families coming to see their new addition and seeing all the love that comes with that is all worthwhile.  It is the greatest job in the world!

Socialization, Guarantee and Price

Socialization

We ensure that our puppies are very well socialized by raising them in our home with us. We give them plenty of TLC, and gentle handling from the moment they are born, while they are in our care for the first 8 weeks and when it is time for them to go to their new homes. Our puppies are usually born in our home, and when they're just minutes old, they are instantly bonded with their mom. They get that type of attention the entire time they are with my family. The lasting effect of this handling is very obvious, no matter which one you pick up, it will immediately calm down in our arms and snuggle into our face and necks, just waiting to be loved.

Not only do our puppies have the socialization of family, they are also socialized with other adults, children and animals.  This is to ensure that they have no hidden fears or anxiety.

Our Guarantee:
Our puppies are sold with a two year health guarantee for genetic health problems.In addition, we also offer and extended two year guarantee from the date of purchase for Hip Dysplasia. It includes either replacement of the puppy, or refund up to the purchase price of the puppy. More information can be obtained through email regarding our guarantee.  You may also direct any questions regarding our guarantee through email, as well.

Our guarantee comes with a spay/ neuter clause. In order for the two year guarantee to remain in effect, the puppy has to be spayed or neutered on or before 6 months of age. We must be provided with verification by 7 months of age.

We also offer lifetime support for our puppies and their owners. Our responsibility as the breeder doesn't end when the puppy leaves our home. We are a source of support for people who have our puppies, and are happy to answer any questions or concerns about the raising of your puppy. If, at anytime in the dogs life, you are unable to keep the dog, and you can't find an adoptive home, we ask that you contact us first. Your puppy or dog always has a place to come back to. We will take it back and find an adoptive home.

Prices

GOLDENDOODLE PRICES:

Our prices are $1400 for our First Generation Goldendoodles (F1), regardless of sex or color.

Our prices are $1600 for our First Generation Crossbacks (F1B), regardless of sex or color.

PICKING UP YOUR PUP

Pups can be picked up at 8 weeks old.  If you are driving to pick up your pup, you will be given a time frame of when the pup would be ready. 

We prefer not to ship our pups due to not meeting our families in person and having our families meet us! But under certain circumstances, I would be willing to ship, if needed.  Shipping is an additional $450 for continental USA.  We do our best to get direct flights.  Shipping does include:  crate, health certificate, blanket/towel, toy and food and water (depending on length of flight).    

A new service that we are offering is a delivery service, either through us or the Snappy Pet Delivery Service.  If  interested in this option, email me and we can go into further details. 

Boarding is also offered past the 8 week pick up time and the related costs are extra.


We require a $200 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT to be placed on the waiting list for any litter. This is done to limit the amount of "Window Shoppers" who put their names on several breeders' lists and take up spots from people who truly want one of our pups.

All of our breeding stock is throughly tested.  They are all tested for the following:

* OFA rating of Fair, Good, Excellent
