Welcome to 
The Fam

Hi, I'm Stephanie!

​

I'm the breeder behind The W Doods! We are an ethical breeder of diverse goldendoodles & AKC poodles located right outside of Chattanooga, Tennessee. We are a family of five and everyone plays a part in our program.  All of our dogs are treated like family, live indoors, and get ridiculously spoiled! 

​

We fell in love with the goldendoodle's personality traits and loyalty first. They're the perfect family dog that is ready for adventure and then ready to snuggle up on the couch when the day is done. They are extremely intelligent and learn very quickly. Secondly, we fell in love with their coats! When bred intentionally, we know what coat type we are getting...and yes, there are a few different goldendoodle coat types! I love the silky curls on a goldendoodle!

​

Later on we got our first standard poodle. We quickly realized how similar their personalities were to the Golden and Labrador retrievers that everyone knew and loved. Originally bred to be water retrievers, their athletic build and love of water and retrieving still shines through today. Their coats are curlier and slightly coarser than a goldendoodle, but the maintenance is about equal. We loved that you could get this loyal, adventurous, intelligent spirit in a dog with a non shed coat!

​

So! That is why we breed both goldendoodles and poodles! In both breeds, we prefer the temperament on the standard and medium size. Our goal is to breed adaptable, loyal, easily trainable, affectionate dogs and we see that most consistently in the mediums and standards! We will only ever breed what we love!

 

Our dams and sires are all tested for genetic health conditions & hip dysplasia, as well as temperament and structure analyzed. This is so we can produce the best puppies possible! We strive to improve our lines with each breeding!​

​

Our puppies are raised in-home, with a top-rated service dog curriculum. We expose them to different sights, sounds, and situations to best prepare them for the rest of their life. We get them started on crate and potty training. The reviews from our puppy families speak for themselves about how well our methods work!

​

Puppies go home at 8 weeks old after a thorough vet check, deworming, and with their first round of vaccinations. All of our puppies come with a two year congenital health guarantee. They also go home microchipped with a fun puppy pack, a custom made puppy guide, & a personalized bandana! You will get access to our "The W Doods Fam" Facebook group and lifetime breeder support!
