Doodles of Snohomish far exceeded my expectations during the entire adoption process. From the start, I was highly impressed. It was obvious that Mary knew what she was doing and that she put her heart and soul into breeding and raising the puppies. She went above and beyond throughout the experience, including regularly posting pictures and videos of the puppies on social media. Which I always appreciated and looked forward to. It was really cool watching the puppies grow and interact firsthand while we were waiting until they were old enough to bring them home.
My puppy is 12 weeks old now, and she is healthy, happy, and adorable! It's obvious that she was well-loved and taken care of. I highly recommend Doodles of Snohomish if you are interested in adopting a doodle. They know their stuff, and you won't regret it!
It would be difficult to find more superlatives to describe our experience with Doodles of Snohomish (DoS). First, the puppies themselves. In addition to extensive genetic testing and matching of the future litter's dam and sire, DoS follows the Badass Breeder program. That means that the puppies are exposed to Early Neurological Stimulation from day 3, allowing them to become accustomed to human contact from the very beginning. They are also exposed to a variety of scents, sights, and sounds throughout their eight weeks with DoS. Second, the reservation and selection process is focused on finding the best match between puppies and their future homes. Once placed on the waiting list for an upcoming litter, prospective owners are kept informed each step of the way. Mary is quick to answer phone calls and emails, and all questions are answered honestly. After the litter is whelped, the videos will start on Facebook and Instagram. Mary provides updates several times a day of the puppies' growth and their interactions with each other. We were able to follow our puppy's progress daily for the eight weeks he was under Mary's care. This was a great help when we had to make a final selection. Honestly, all the puppies are cute and cuddly, but finding the best match is a challenge. Mary helps out by doing temperament testing of each puppy at the seven-week mark, providing a video link of each test and a summary to each prospective owner before a final selection is required. So what's the result, what's the bottom line for us? We received a very healthy, very well-adjusted and socialized puppy, one who has been started on crate training and potty training--yes, a work in progress, for sure--and one who has seamlessly made the transition from litter mate to family pet.

We could not be happier with our decision and we recommend Mary and Doodles of Snohomish without reservation. Thank you, Mary.
