"Our experience with Ponderosa Goldendoodles has been fantastic. We were on our way back from our honeymoon and we saw that Theo's litter had the same birthday as our anniversary, and we knew instantly that this was the perfect fit for us. After emailing back and forth with Nicole, she offered to FaceTime with us to introduce us to each of the puppies. This helped us to get to know each of the puppies better and made it easier to decide which puppy would be the best fit for us. Shortly after our FaceTime chat, we decided that would love to bring home Theo as we start our family together. He is so easy to train as he is an excellent listener and he responds well to treats. He loves going on hikes with us and having fun outdoors. Nicole made sure that all of the puppies had all our their necessary vaccinations and she kept excellent records of Theo's medical history. We love our Theo so much and we would recommend Ponderosa Goldendoodles to anyone." ~ Brian and Marie Stroh, Parents to Theo (Daisy's 2017 litter)
The Popes are a loving family who did such a great job socializing
the pups with their small children. For a mom of three children,
two of which are only 5 and 1, that is a wonderful thing. Our puppy,
Wilson, is so tolerant of them while they learn "gentle touch".
Wilson's had his hair and ears pulled quite a few times and he's
never once reacted aggressively. He loves the kids so much! ~ Erinn Skaggs Larsen, Family of Wilson (Daisy's 2017 litter)

Our sweet Minnie is such a pure sweetheart! We cannot go anywhere with Minnie without comments about how beautiful she is. More importantly, everyone (groomer, vet, friends) immediately comment about her sweet and calm demeanor. With three kids constantly around her, we could not ask for a more patient and gentle puppy. They are convinced she hugs them back. She is a love bug! Thank you for giving the puppies such a warm and loving start. ~ Bassli Family (Family of Minnie)

The Popes have done a wonderful job raising their first litter of puppies! I am very grateful for how much they have socialized them. Everest has done an amazing job staying calm around people of all different ages from babies to older people. With that being said, she most definitely has her puppy moments which can be expected! However, she has done so well with the training I have done with her from socialization to training tricks that it has allowed me to register her as an emotional support dog. I am very excited to see when she has some pups of her own and see her mama side come out.
With Everest in their breeding program the Popes have also welcomed me in and have come around me like mentors. They have taken me in and have invested their time into my life as they walk me and my pup through their program. If anyone is interested in one of their puppies I can confidently say that you will love not only your new pup, but the family that raised them as well. ~ Audrey Ferguson, Guardian of Everest, future Ponderosa Mama (Daisy's 2017 litter)

I want to specify that you and Chris have done a great job in raising our puppies. We couldn't have received better care. Everything was clean, well organized and can tell puppies received lots of love. Be proud of Ponderosa! ~ Parent to Mikki (Daisy's 2017 litter)
Hello Nicole!
It's been almost five (amazing) weeks since we've brought Mayo home and honestly he is THE BEST. Crate training is going very well (he has had VERY FEW accidents inside and he is not very whiny when we do put him in there). He is so smart and sweet and definitely rambunctious.
We are so grateful that you raised such a kind and wonderful pup. He's a joy to everyone around us and I hope he is having just as fun of a time with us as we are having with him! I've attached a few pictures for you to see how much he's grown (he's just about 20 pounds now!). We have been on a playdate with Lily and Murphy and plan to have many more in the future! Hope this short little message brings some joy!
With Happiness,
Jackie, Parent to Mayo (Daisy's 2018 Litter)

Just wanted to send you and update... Murphy has been absolutely amazing. He has been everything I wanted in a puppy. He’s completely potty trained now, thanks to you. And he is totally fearless. Everyone just loves him, and he loves everyone!!! Here he is at our camping trip tonight. First shot, and he nailed it! He’s a total model stud!
Thank you so much for everything again!!! He’s been such a blessing!!! ~ Stephanie, Parent to Murphy (Daisy's 2018 Litter)

Hi Nicole,
Duke has been so much fun! He is officially the most spoiled in our family! He is so smart and such a good boy! He lets me comb him and keep him nice and fluffy.
He really loves early mornings when it’s cooler. We spend time outside while I water my pots and plants. Duke likes to dig and make a big mess of himself- so he’s been getting a rinse in the pool before I bring him in the house. He knows he isn’t allowed on the couch but the golden in him makes him test limits. My son Patrick told me he was on the couch with him and when duke heard me coming he got down- what a stinker! Here is a picture of him a few weeks ago busted on the couch! And a few others where he made it onto the ottoman he was so proud of himself! Finally he wore himself out and crashed with a cowhide coaster. Lol.
Thanks Nicole for your dedication and love for all the pups! You are awesome!

Just wanted to let you know that Harley (formerly Peppermint Patty) is doing great and is very perky and sociable. I took her to get her VERY thick coat trimmed when it got hot here... and all the young women who worked in the dog salon fell in love with her. Apparently she made friends with just about every dog there and didn't fuss at all... We did a 45 minute walk this morning while most of the world was sleeping and she did great! ~ Cheryl, Family of Harley (Daisy's 2018 litter)
