About Us
Get to Know Us
We are a small family in Mendon Ma. that fell in love with the intelligence and beauty of Goldendoodles. We hand-raise each puppy in our home, surrounded by other animals and the cacophony of family life. Our immersive method ensures that each puppy receives all the extra attention, simulation, and socialization it needs to become the best companion you will ever have.
The Inspiration behind our program
Popcorn
Our journey started 20 years ago when we adopted Popcorn, our Bichon Frise. Unfortunately he suffered for years from genetic defects due to poor breeding practices.
Popcorn was a mighty little dog, who pushed through so much pain in life but never showed it. He had the biggest loving heart, and would do anything for everyone, especially his family. He loved to make people happy, and he was the happiest little pup you'd ever meet. His favorite activities were, boogie boarding, riding on the ATV, lawn tractor, bikes and even helping drive the car! He was like the little energizer bunny, never stopped moving around. Popcorn was as stubborn as they come, but with the most loving heart. He was an aspiring therapy dog and would sit with people for hours just to keep them company.
I wish we could have eliminated the suffering he endured, but there was nothing that we could have done. I can however create dogs that never have to go through this kind of suffering by carefully selecting and thoroughly testing my dogs for genetic defects. I made a promise to Popcorn that I would do just that, which is why I started Loving Hearts Goldendoodles.
