HAPPY FAMILIES
Hundreds of families across the country have welcomed an Acadia Goldendoodle into their lives. Here are just a few of their stories.
WHAT FAMILIES ARE SAYING
A small sample from the many families who have shared their stories with us.
Josie has been a member of our family for six years now and we can't say enough good things about her. She is an informal emotional support dog to all our family with such a devoted and loving temperament. Nearly everyone we meet comments on her soft, beautiful coat and long eyelashes. Hands down, she's the best dog we've ever had the pleasure of knowing!

We researched several Goldendoodle breeders. We decided to work with Acadia initially because they are GANA approved. Megan's love for what she does showed in her immediate responses to my many questions. Our Vet and Trainer were impressed with the binder Megan puts together. In the Veterinarian's words: 'They never received such an organized, caring binder.' We cannot recommend Acadia Goldendoodle enough.

One year ago today we picked up our beloved Daisy from you! She is literally the sweetest dog I have ever had the privilege of knowing. She makes friends easily with both people and other dogs. She just absolutely fits perfectly into our life, whether that is snuggling on the couch, going for a boat ride or walk, or just following us around. We are eternally grateful.

Daisy is perfect. She's just the best. Already a therapy dog for me post-surgery. We are so bonded. She's so smart and learns quickly. So friendly. Loved every person and doggie she meets. She is just a gift. I'm grateful every single day. Feels truly miraculous!

We are truly loving Archie's company and he is thriving. He's already 35.5 lbs at 5 months old. He is all boy. He is incredibly social, loves EVERYONE and has adapted very quickly to everything. He's very smart and wants to please. We are delighted by him and want to thank you again for breeding such a superb puppy.

Tuffy is now 7 years old. He is the most incredible animal I've ever known. I just wanted to let you know he's having a superb life and has been extremely healthy with absolutely no issues whatsoever. It does not matter where I am or what I'm doing — if that dog is with me, people light up when they see him. I call him the Zen dog. The joy he has provided is almost beyond words.

Finn had his first vet appointment today. He was such a good boy and everyone immediately fell in love with him. The doctor was quite impressed by your binder! This just solidifies what I already know — you are an AWESOME breeder!!! THANK YOU for picking my family for this puppy. He is loved beyond words.

A local veterinarian saw Pumpkin and told me repeatedly what a fine puppy he is, and asked me to pass along her compliments to you as breeder. She said he is physically well developed and healthy and also so good-natured and mannerly. She said he is one of the best puppies she's seen in some time. Thank you for your wisdom and work to bring these lovely and loving puppies into the world.

Madeleine is by far and away the most beautifully behaved puppy I have ever had. She is divine — beautiful and already bonded. She is very very very special. Such a gift. Thank you.

Barley is doing great! Her training is going great thanks to the amazing start you gave her. The trainer — 35 years of experience — is very impressed with her intelligence and temperament. She even went so far as to look up your website and was so impressed with your program that she has given your name out to a few families. Thank you!

We have come to a common consensus that my wife and I love Pilot more than each other. Not sure if that's healthy for our relationship but we are coping! He is such a little love. We could not be happier!
