Our Raising Philospophy

At Milk & Honey Doodles, our philosophy is simple raise each puppy the way we’d want our own family member raised.

From day one, every puppy is handled with gentle hands, surrounded by calm voices, and nurtured through thoughtful, proven methods that help them grow confident, curious, and connected. We believe raising puppies well goes far beyond checklists it’s about the little things done consistently, with heart and purpose.

Intentional Early Development

We follow a structured puppy curriculum that blends Badass Breeder Advanced Curriculum with elements of Puppy Culture and years of hands-on experience.

From early handling and sound desensitization to structured play and exposure, each week is designed to support healthy neurological, emotional, and physical development.

 Focus on Temperament

Every Milk & Honey puppy is known, not just numbered.

We watch closely as they grow, learn their personalities, and nurture their individual strengths. By the time they’re ready for their new homes, we provide each family with a detailed temperament evaluation — helping you find a puppy that truly fits your lifestyle and heart.

 Raised in Our Home, With Heart

Our puppies aren’t raised in kennels they’re raised right alongside us.

They hear household sounds, experience daily life, and learn to settle, explore, and trust. From crate and potty training beginnings to early manners and recall cues, they leave here with a foundation built for lifelong success.

 Health, Heart & Purpose

Every parent in our program is fully health tested through OFA and genetic panels, chosen for both structure and temperament. We believe great puppies start with great parents and we’re deeply intentional about every pairing we make.

At the heart of it all, our goal is to raise puppies who bring warmth, companionship, and a little light into the world families that feel like home and hearts that stay connected.

Rooted in love. Guided by purpose. Built on intention.
