I am very surprised to hear people's negativity about Colony Breeders. We love them and their dog…read more Our journey of choosing our fur-ever fur baby began in April 2017. We had visited a few golden doodle Breeders online and in person, in state and out of state. We did a lot of extensive research. While Searching the web, up popped Colony Breeders. We called and spoke with Troy. Very friendly and informative. He invited us to come down to Galt , and meet his dogs (the parents) they were expecting a litter soon. We were quite impressed by the cleanliness of the property and how well groomed the dogs were! Troy and Katie we're very informative about their dogs and the whole breeding experience. The puppies were born April 10th 2017. We knew we wanted a female, so that was all we will see every time we visited (which was quite often). We were 2nd pick. I had an idea which one of two I was going to choose, the day came June 3, 2017...I got out the car and started towards the puppies and here she came running towards me... my perfect fur baby!! Our girl Karli, has been a life changer for us.. she is so smart and was potty trained to go to the door (very impressive). Well behaved, loves people, children, everywhere we go she goes and people comment on how well she acts for a 2 1/2 year old puppy.. We can only have awesome things to say about Colony Breeders, Troy and Katie. They can promise you a top quality Golden Doodle.. a Fur-ever fur

I did a lot of research before and she was the closest to me and from the pictures online seemed to be the perfect match for what I was looking for. The pictures of the parents looked a bit outdated (which they are). Also, I am almost positive that the weights for the dogs on the website are incorrect because Bailey was said to be around 30 pounds, but when seeing her in person she looked between 40-50 lbs. Communication with Nancy was good in the beginning, but once puppies came and I would ask for pictures she wouldn't text back until she sent a weekly/biweekly update that was very generic. My puppy ended up with Giardia when she came home and I was let know by someone else from my litter that the vet records were falsified and I had contacted the vet that was on the records and they confirmed that she had been falsifying records for a long time now. I contacted Nancy about this and she tried to lie at first over text and was ignoring all my phone calls. Finally after calling a few times she admitted that she had administered the shots herself. She refunded me my deposit to cover the giardia cost, but I will not be recommending her or be going through her for another puppy.

Our sires and dams have been DNA tested to be free of any genetic abnormalities and known genetic issues that are common to Golden Retrievers. Our puppies are raised in our home and socialized to people at an early age. They live in our family room, the hub of our home, for the first several weeks of life and are held and handled daily and given a lot of stimulation to promote healthy development, trust in being handled, and love of human interaction. We begin noise training at an early age to a variety of sounds including vacuum, lawn mower, blower, television, kitchen noises, as well as parrot and chicken noises. They also get exposed to other sounds of nature through dog tv videos featuring dogs, squirrels, birds, and other animals as well as other nature shows played on the tv daily in the family room for the enjoyment of our own dogs as well as the pups. House training is started while still in the whelping pen capitalizing on puppy's basic instinct to not soil their sleeping area. Positive reinforcement is used to encourage positive behaviors. Pups are exposed to age appropriate toys as baby teeth are growing in, to allow them to explore and gain exposure through mouthing different textures.
