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.

  • Train my doodle exceeded all my expectations. Karina worked one on one with my 6 month old doodle and immediately he picked up on her queues. She works with the family to facilitate the training transition. Yes, she basically trained me and helped me get rid of my bad habits too. I was able to take what she did and use it with our 7 yr old dog and it worked. I can’t say enough about her or the training process she uses.

  • 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 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!

  • The decision I made after months of research was to go with Train My Doodle. Not only did I purchase one of her beautiful puppies that we named Simba. We got the extended package so he’s currently being trained by her now we will be receiving our bundle of joy Christmas morning, she has made this process extremely easy and kept me in the loop about every milestone. Simba has gone through being that the kids are not aware of this surprise it has been tricky navigating it, but Karina has made it extremely simple for us to do such a big surprise, not only are her prices extremely feasible compared to what is out there. Her puppies are well taken care of full of love and extremely well treated. The best decision I made was to do my research and come across her. She is a joy to work with and truly cares about the well-being of her puppies. I have never come across a breeder who cares so much about each puppy again the process has been seamless and I can’t wait to pick him up. I will be updating my review for the grand reveal on Christmas morning again if you’re thinking about purchasing a puppy, I wouldn’t hesitate to go with Karina( Train My Doodle). We were extremely hesitant due to everything that we came across was either breeders, just breeding puppies, and outrageous prices simply just to have a trained puppy. We will be working with Karina in the future as well to continue the training for Simba and even then her prices are extremely reasonable. We couldn’t be more happy with our choice and the new addition to our family. This has all been made possible due to the way she runs her business and the prices. Karina for making this such a beautiful adventure.

  • Karina is a special human raising special puppies. We are experienced dog owners who chose to work with her because of her knowledge and dedication to her work. We left prepared with an amazing puppy who was well on his way to being a respectful and obedient companion, it was a shortcut to fun a play without having to figure everything out alone. I wish we had met her before.

  • 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.
