I found Artisan Doodle on Instagram a few years ago and started following them. By watching their posts & stories, I could see how much love & commitment they put into the puppies they breed…that’s what drew me in (not to mention their adorable teddy bear faces & calm personalities). So when I was ready to add another pup to our family, I knew I wanted it from Artisan. Candace answered all my questions right away and there was never any pressure to use them as a breeder. Timing is everything with a new puppy coming into your home and when I was ready, I reached out again. She guided me to the size I was looking for…and I’m happy to say, I just got my first puppy from her this past week!!! The entire process from picking out our puppy, guiding me with how to care for her at home, thanks to Jenn for all her info, to Makenna arranging for Lexi to fly her to me…..they were SO accommodating! Paya’s sweet “yellow girl” ( named Luna) is absolutely gorgeous, playful, sweet, gentle and SO smart. I introduced her to our vet the next day and the vet mentioned how well she was taken care of before she came to me. She noticed how clean & fresh she smelled, trimmed nails, and such a confident, playful demeanor!!!! Luna is sleeping through the night, and haven’t had any potty accidents. She loves praise & rewards ?She knows her name & responds….and she can already do the stairs!!!! 4.5 pounds and only 7 weeks old, but so determined to keep up with her older fur sisters. She is playful & gentle to our older dogs, she likes to follow them everywhere. Luna loves to be snuggled & loved on…and she gets plenty of that I highly recommend Artisan doodles!!!!

Where do I even begin? I have done so much research in finding an ethical and transparent breeder. I am so happy I was able to find Artisan Doodles. It was the best thing that could happen to us! We wanted to get more information so we called Candace and she picked up right away and we had a great & productive conversation about if this was the right option for us. We put in a deposit layer that night and five months later we picked Ollie! Both Candace and Jenn was so involved in the whole process and still to this day whenever I have a Question I can text them Confident that I will get a response quickly because they care so much about their puppies! I have nothing but great things to say about how they raised their puppies in the first eight weeks. Ollie came home sleeping eight hours and going on the pads before he was able to go outside. Ollie is calm confident, independent & silly! He is very bright, smart and easy to train! Being in NYC, he does very well with subways and trains and cars and buses! I cannot say enough great things about Artisan Doodles and I am so thankful for them!

I don’t even know where to start… I’m so glad I researched different Goldendoodle breeders before deciding to get our puppy from Artisan Doodles. We really wanted to find a mini doodle that would have wavy hair and an amazing personality. We’ve had our pup home for just over two months now and he’s exceeded all of our expectations!Bronco came home to us sleeping like a champ in his crate at night!! Like, seriously, it was unbelievable. I had told friends that Artisan Doodles touted that being the case, but nobody believed me. Everybody told me that I should still get myself ready for sleepless nights and a lot of really difficult work for the first month, at least. My friends were wrong.Not only was Bronco sleeping through the night in his crate from day one, but he also had the best manners! I couldn’t believe it when we brought him home and he would just walk around and then sit down when he wanted something. It was the cutest thing to see this tiny pup be so calm and patient.Raising a puppy still comes with its challenges, even if the puppy does come from amazing breeders. We’ve still had our work cut out for us to train new skills, and to teach him how to interact with our house and other people. But we are super grateful for the starting point that we got when we brought Bronco home. Bronco has been so smart, and so easy to work with throughout his training. He picks up new skills incredibly fast.Thank you to everyone at Artisan Doodles! You are all super talented and amazing to work with. We can’t recommend you enough!

Artisan doodles amazing! I was looking over a year for a good breeder and had spoken with many others, Candace was the only person that did not pressure me for a deposit. She was the only person that told me to do this when I was ready. I can’t leave Jenn out of this review, she was beyond helpful and informative and the flight nanny Lexi was super sweet and took good care of my boy.Louie slept over 8 hours the very first night, he is such a good boy. He went to the vet and had no parasites and a perfect bill of health!I highly recommend Artisan, every part of this experience has been made simple, easy, happy and exciting!! ?

Update: This is a warning!! Do not purchase a puppy from Artisan Doodles unless you are prepared to be that weird dog owner that’s so obsessed with their dog that they buy another one to match the first one! Yep it’s true I’ve purchased two doodles from this breeder in the past year and they are both the best pups I’ve ever owned. We are so in love. Can’t recommend Jenn and Candace anymore.We got our wonderful puppy from Artisan Doodles, both Jenn and Candace are very communicative from start to finish and they puppy comes to you crate trained! No sleepless puppy nights! Our guy is the sweetest most laid back little thing—a total joy!

I am SO happy we found Artisan Doodles!!I did A LOT of research looking for the best Goldendoodle breeder, and I know Artisan is it!! We brought home our new puppy Nugget 5 days ago, and he is the best puppy ever! We made a last minute decision to get him when we saw that he was available online, and the process was seamless. From the flight nanny scheduling to any questions and information, their communication was amazing! Nugget sleeps 8 hours a night in his crate and potty training has been so easy. It is very clear that the training they do before sending the puppies home is wonderful!! We plan to get a 2nd puppy from Artisan Doodles, and we can't wait to do the process again!!

Leo is our first puppy experience. We had a lot of reservations and took over 5 years to make this decision. Candace and Jenn were incredible communicating with us every step of the way and extremely quick to respond. I got the feeling that they really cared not only about these puppies they were raising but for the families that were ready for this step. They are genuine about wanting the best situation for families and puppies.Leo slept through 8 hours since the very first night without a peep even though it was a big change and overwhelming experience being flown to California, meeting us, and leaving his siblings behind. He is such a sweet dog, so smart and loving. He is potty trained, learned to sit, stay, come, shake, and wait for his food at 10 weeks.Thank you Candace and Jenn for being there for us through this process! We are so grateful!!

We’ve had Shrimp (Summer’s light blue boy) for two weeks now and we could not be more obsessed! We are constantly impressed with how smart and sweet he is. He’s an incredibly fast learner… he already knows his name, sit, down, wait, his release word, leave it, and fetch! He came home sleeping 8 hours in his crate every night without a peep and mostly potty trained. Our friends can’t believe it. The early training, love, and care he got from Artisan is so clear. We loved getting updates on the litter every week, their training advice was so helpful, and their ongoing communication and support is seriously unheard of. I would recommend Artisan again and again. Thank you Jenn and Candace for everything you do! Follow our little dream puppy on Instagram @ShrimpTheDood ??✨

Our puppy came totally crate trained and slept through the night at just 8 weeks old! She is the sweetest puppy, and loves to be snuggled. She is very comfortable being with people and being touched. She also came mostly potty trained. Of course she has accidents, but she is so smart and if I watch her cues like they told me to, she goes to the bathroom where she is supposed to! A dream puppy!!!

After searching for the perfect puppy we finally contacted Candace and Jenn for a couple different puppies. We never felt pressured and they answered all of our questions. I loved that I was able to follow my puppy’s journey from the moment she was born. I felt a connection with her and when we FaceTimed, I knew she was the one for us. The process was easy and they take lots of steps to ensure a smooth transition. I feel that because they genuinely love these puppies, we got the absolute best family pet and I would recommend Artisan Doodles to anyone. Our puppy is potty/crate trained which has made our lives so much easier. I had a concern about my puppy after the first couple of days home and Jenn was amazing and responded so quickly which made me feel so much better. I hesitated at first but now I am even thinking about getting a second puppy from Candace and Jenn. So grateful for them ?

Artisan Doodles is amazing - I CANNOT say enough good things about them. I followed Jenn & Candace on Instagram for a while before we got our puppy, and right away they stood out from the rest. First of all their puppies are absolutely gorgeous! But the time and care they put into the first few weeks of the puppies’ lives is unmatched. We got our little Graham at 7 weeks old and from the very first night we brought him home he has been sleeping in his crate 8 hours through the night - a HUGE blessing as this is typically unheard of with a new puppy. He was also pretty well potty trained right away and we were able to train him to ring a bell on our door to tell us he needs to go outside within the first week that he lived with us. He is sweet and so smart and absolutely loves all other people and dogs. He was already well socialized when we got him and is doing great with all the new things and people/pets we are constantly introducing him to. He’s the cutest puppy we have ever seen (maybe we are a little bias) and he has been the perfect addition to our family. Jenn and Candace were amazing throughout the whole process, from helping us choose the perfect litter for us, to weekly updates once our puppy was born, and tons of information, resources, and guidance about how to take good care of him when we brought him home. They are quick to respond to messages and willing to help with anything to do with being a dog owner. You can tell how much they adore each and every dog and puppy that is part of their program like their own. I truly don’t think we could have handled getting a puppy in this season of our lives if we hadn’t found Artisan Doodles - the process has been so seamless and amazing. Graham is now 10 weeks old - Shasta x Knox litter. Thank you Candace and Jenn!

There aren’t enough words to express how wonderful our experience was and continues to be with Jenn, Candace and the entire Artisan Doodle family. They truly care about these sweet puppies and it shows. We got our sweet Simba and he slept through the night our first night. He is playful, calm, and has the sweetest personality. They put in so much effort and getting them on a schedule before sending them off to their forever families. Simba came home using their flight nanny service which was amazing. She kept us updated the entire day and was absolutely amazing. He slept through the night his first night home after only crying for 2 minutes. He is the same way for his naps as well. We have such a great foundation and continued support that helps us feel confident on keeping with their training and advice. We waited 7 years since our last dog died and knew Simba was the one when we saw him. Artisan Doodles is the real deal and loves each and every one of these puppies. And they are available to answer any questions and help before, during and after. We feel so lucky to have found them. ❤️

I chose Artisan as my breeder of choice because of all the amazing reviews and so I have to leave mine and share that the words expressed about their pups are accurate. We got Rosey from Shasta’s latest litter and I could not be more impressed at how well behaved she is. She DID sleep 8 hours in her crate the first night and continues to every evening! She is like clockwork, goes potty, plays, then naps for 1-2 hours in her crate throughout the day. All she wants when awake is a little play time but then just cuddles and hugs and to be near you, whether being carried or in a bed where she can relax and see you. She is smart too. She learned the word potty and what I want her to do when I say that, almost immediately. Above all, Candace and Jenn and their whole crew are so transparent about their process and the dogs, which made me feel comfortable to know exactly what I was getting. I absolutely recommend them 100%. Thank you Artisan Doodles for our awesome Rosey. And come on, how beautiful is she?!!

I simply cannot rave about Artisan Doodles enough!!! If you are thinking about buying a puppy, YOU MUST get a pup from them. Our experience was TOP KNOTCH.Jenn, Candance, Polly, Makena & our Flight Nanny Tabor were seriously so amazing. The process was seamless. We got little yellow girl whose original owners fell through and we immediately jumped when we saw she was available. This puppy is quite literally the BEST PUPPY EVER.I mean going 8+ hours in her crate with NOT ONE ACCIDENT from the first night we got her and we’ve had her about a little over a week now. She loves her crate so much I catch her going in it on her own for some rest after she’s done playing. She’s just starting to show her little personality and it’s so cute to watch.I cannot thank you guys enough for raising such beautiful perfect puppy. I’ve recommended Artisan to all my friends and family! If I could give this 10 stars I would because I think five isn’t enough!! Here’s some images of our sweet babygirl

Artisan Doodles is everything they claim to be and then some! Their communication, fantastic. The selection, payment and pickup process, seamless. But above all of that, their puppies are perfect! I know, every puppy is perfect but theirs are phenomenal! You can tell they are raised with love, and an insane amount of time and attention given to them! Their perfectly silky coats and bloodline are unmatched!We were told she’d sleep 8 hours in her kennel, first night home. And lo and behold, she did just that! I am genuinely impressed! I have had my fair share of puppies and it took weeks, if not months to get them to that point once home with us!Before choosing Artisan, the only real hang up was the little extra cost.Lemon, our goldendoodle pup, is hands down, the sweetest, funniest, well-adjusted puppy I’ve ever had. Her price tag was worth its weight in gold. Jenn and Candace are WORTH EVERY PENNY.We’re already anticipating getting a second baby from them! Trust them, you’ll be so glad you did!
