Raising Puppies: A Family's Heartwarming Journey

And, yes! Most of the time, we all have our hands full (of puppies).

My kids, Lucas and Stella, are trainers in training. They always cuddle and teach the puppies how to interact appropriately. For me, it is intense work, sleepless nights, lots of cleaning, scratches, bites, and a labor of love. Every time a puppy goes to its new home, there is excitement but lots of tears and goodbyes.

Our family teaches the puppies how to develop into loving family companions, while the puppies teach us how to love more and serve the community.

Meet Our Fur Family

It all started with our two dogs, Holly-Hugs, the English Golden Retriever, and Tiny Tina, the teacup Yorkie. Unfortunately, Holly passed away in 2022 at 14 years of age. We then added Neve, an F1B Goldendoodle, who quickly became Tina’s best buddy. They continue helping us teach the pups dog language, a critical socialization step of a pup’s development.

” If you want a puppy to share your home, look for a puppy that has been raised and trained in a home.”

Family Oriented Program

Every puppy that enters our program becomes part of our family pack.
The puppies are boarded and trained in the family environment to get them
ready to join their next family.

Exclusive

Because we work in our home and want to ensure each puppy receives the attention it needs to develop into an excellent companion, we only train a few puppies at a time.

Passion

We love working with dogs and helping other people as a result. It is so gratifying to see other families’ happiness and know that our friendship circle expands every day.

Affordability

Our program is affordable compared to many breeder training programs because we choose to help families and keep prices affordable.

  • We haven't had a dog for a long time (over 20 years) and felt like it was time. We searched for the right type of dogs and how to bring a dog into our household. Decided on a doodle. We spoke to several breeder/trainers and luckily found Train My Doodle. Karina was friendly, knowledgeable and patient with us while we were getting ourselves educated on who, when, how we were going to bring a dog home. We choose her and it was a great decision. She was very connected and responsive with us the whole way and during our dogs training with videos, pictures, and information. We recently received our pup and we're super thrilled to be dog parents again with a sweet puppy that's been given a great training foundation. Many thanks to Karina. She's a wonderful person and great trainer. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great puppy.

  • Karina is an absolute dream to work with! When I found her site I thought it seemed to be too good to be true... But she has proved me pleasantly wrong! She listens to the needs your family needs in a puppy and she delivers! Our little boy has been home with us for a week now and he has lived up to the hype 100%, he transitioned well, he is well behaved with a calm demeanor. We are so thankful for our little guy and that we found Karina!

  • We are so happy that we found Karina with TrainmyDoodle. She made the whole process of picking Lucy so simple and would send us pictures and videos everyday of her training progress. She was always available to answer all of our questions. Lucy has been absolutely amazing since we brought her home. She is so well behaved and trained. She has been so sweet with our two young children. She truly is a special dog and we have Karina to thank for that! We will definitely be referring all of our friends to Trainmydoodle! 10/10!!

  • We truly cannot say enough about our experience with Train My Doodle. Not only did we get the sweetest, most well behaved puppy who is so smart and trained. But it has been nothing but a pleasure to work with Karina! She is always ready and available to help and guide us along with our new puppy! She has given us suggestions that have helped transition our puppy to become part of our family! We will forever be grateful for Train My Doodle!

  • I couldn't be happier with the training sessions provided by Karina.. Her expertise and patience made learning commands like sit, up, down, and watch me, a breeze for my doodle. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for effective and enjoyable dog training!

  • Karina was amazing with my new baby doodle. I was searching for a puppy trainer that I felt was trust worthy, and I knew my pup was in good hands from the first time I spoke to her. She was patient in discussing my goals and setting expectations. Kobe came back home after 2 weeks a much calmer pup, listened to basic commands, and was on a potty schedule that was manageable. She communicated consistently throughout the two weeks, sent videos and texts with progress updates. I would highly reccomend Karina to anyone who is looking for a caring trainer in a home setting, makes it easier to transition back home as we can establish a similar schedule for consistency with a new pup.

  • Karina is the best. So trustworthy! I got two of my pups from her. I have 2 of the best golden doodles around. I would love to be a reference if you have any questions Karina can give you my number. If you’re on the fence , jump off of it. Best decision ever!

  • My wife and I recently lost our 10yr old Komondor. She wasn’t ready for another dog but I knew it was the right thing to do. I wanted a golden doodle and researching on where to get one I came across Train my doodle. Reached out to Karina and she immediately answered my request. She didn’t have a puppy available but she found one from a breeder she worked with previously. I decided to use her services to pickup and puppy training for 6 weeks. Let me say it was the best decision I made. She arranged the pickup with breeder and bought our boy Tux to her. The next 6 weeks she did an amazing job training Tux on all the fundamentals. She kept us up to date with his training and areas for us to focus on when he comes to us. The potty training, the socialization, basic obedience. She went through alot. When the time came to transport Tux, the transporter she suggested was amazing as well. Took care of Tux from Miami to NJ and arrived 30min earlier than anticipated. To show you how amazing using Karina’s services was, Tux acclimated so well and no potty accidents in his first days with us(and still none). She sent a full report on how to continue training and areas he needs more attention, full vet records as she took Tux to his vet visits and a wonderful thank you card. The service Karina provides is one I’d recommend to anyone looking to get a doodle and having them go through early training, it’s truly worth every penny. I even tried convincing my wife to get a 2nd dog from Karina but she was having none of it :). Thanks again to Karina and Train My Doodle to bringing Tux into our lives.
