I especially appreciated the book we received with pictures of their parents and information of their bloodline, with AKC numbers for all members. Also included were recommendations for the care of the puppies. We could tell they really care about the puppies and want the transition to be as smooth as possible. The girls are so spunky and happy. They brought so much joy to our us and our children. I recommend this breeder to anyone looking to add great dogs to their family.

As much as I hate leaving this review I feel I have to. I have never had a more sick puppy. Day 1 I…read morequestioned his droopy eyes which breeder responded were normal English lab eyes. I've had 2 and they were not like Chewie's. Picked him up Sunday and Friday he started throwing up constantly so I rushed him to ER. He tested positive for Parvo. The vets I spoke to thought it was definitely from breeder as I had not brought him anywhere other than my house and had only had him 5 days. They also thought it strange that breeder gave puppy antibiotics to come home with. Definitely not the norm unless there is something going on. I contacted sterling and they claimed it wasn't from them and were a bit defensive in texts until I let them know that my main concern was to ensure all their dogs were safe. They then offered some sympathy and prayers but never once said to bring him back or offered to help pay for his vet fees which most reputable breeders will do. He also tested positive for giardia. This has been the absolute most difficult experience because we love Chewie so much but I am concerned for his future health, especially after reading the rest of the Yelp reviews. Sterling labs did not show parents onsite and never sent any videos or pictures of my pups litter as other breeders have done. Makes me wonder why all their posts are old videos they just seem to repost on a cycle. Very unfortunate and my dog has now cost me more than I could afford and we have only had him less than 2 months. I thought I had done my research and bought from a good breeder but obviously not the case. We paid over $3k for him and his vet bills have now surpassed that. What was supposed to help mend our broken hearts from putting our 13yo lab down last year has turned into a nightmare. Please do not buy from them.

If you have a 401K account and if you're familiar with the term, "Automatic Rollover", well that's what he does whenever we have a treat for him. I'm still trying to teach him how to roll over to the left as he knows only how to roll on the right. He's brought lots of love and joy to our family and my wife loves him so much. He takes away all our worries and he loves us so much in return. He sometimes thinks he's a cat when he walks on the top edge of our couch. He's a great guard dog but he likes certain dogs and barks at the ones he doesn't like through our security door whenever they walk by our home. He doesn't have that nasty dog smell and is so clean smelling and hypoallergenic.

Given the reviews about deposits and refunds, I should share our recent experience…read more Our experience reflects the changes in policies and procedures regarding deposits and refunds. I contacted April in February 2020 because we are looking for a male mini petite Goldendoodle. Early on, she mentioned that deposits are non-refundable but transferrable to another litter as long as I would need. When the litter did not survive, April, immediately contacted us and returned our deposits very QUICKLY. I did not have to wait for her or bother her several times. I decided to let her keep my deposit for the next litter. She even offered a discount because of what happened. The wait was so worth it. We got a cute and adorable mini petite Goldendoodle! We were also the first pick, which was very detrimental to me. April offers the most reasonable pricing for a mini petite Goldendoodle. So many breeders charge more than $2000 for a mixed-breed puppy. We got ours for less than $2000, and he should mature 15lbs to 20lbs! Parents are also health tested. Her prices between solid colored doodles and parti/abstract doodles are the same - showing April does not breed for color and coat type. Responsible breeders will breed because of the parents' personality and temperament. Puppy selection can happen from 6 weeks old to pick up day. We selected our doodle during the pickup day, saving us a trip. Many breeders will let families choose base on pictures, and families will only judge a puppy by his/her coat color and coat type rather than selecting a puppy for his/her personality and temperament. Many dogs end up in the shelter because their character does not fit the family's lifestyle. Speaking of animal shelters, included in the puppy contract, in case a family cannot take care of the dog anymore, she'll take them back and help with rehoming. April was responsive to all my questions and gave me pictures regularly. Whenever I ask for videos, she sent me videos. I was looking for a calm and submissive puppy to pair with our laidback and submissive older doodle. April was very helpful in describing the puppies' personality. She knew which one was outgoing and which one is calm. I originally wanted a dark red doodle but judging by April's feedback, the red doodle, will not be a perfect fit for us. We selected a handsome, teddy bear looking mini Goldendoodle. He has an angelic face, blockhead, and a shiny curly coat. He is smart, calm, submissive but will readily play with our 55 lbs Goldendoodle. He is not scared of loud noises and slowly becoming outgoing and independent. He's also been sleeping through the night at eight weeks old! We love our little man so much. I am happy with how things turned out. Our older doodle loves him so much they have been playing along non-stop. They share the same play style! My husband is delighted because we are all happy. Thank you, April, for our handsome little guy.

I asked for a refund and she said no, it can transfer to another dog. However, the dog would be bigger. Plus it's not the dog we wanted. She had the dog listed on another website for $2500.

I have not owned a goldendoodle and Charlene answered all of my questions & concerns beforehand. She would send weekly updates and pictures of our puppy from birth. Charlene was very accommodating with visits starting at 4 weeks old. I think this truly helped our puppy transition to her new home since she was already comfortable around us. She also did us a favor and kept her an extra 2 weeks (past her 8 week pick up date) since we had a preexisting vacation planned. Charlene provided all of her vet records, a take home basket filled with toys, goodies and even a new puppy what to expect packet. You can tell she and her family go above and beyond to make this experience positive. Our pup is so sweet, calm, intelligent and potty trained so quickly with the help of Charlene starting her crate training. Overall amazing experience that you won't get elsewhere.
