Hello! We are Josh and Amber Halversen, a family-based dog breeder in Southern (Thatcher) Arizona. We currently breed miniature Goldendoodles, miniature English Goldendoodles, and Shih Poo puppies. We ENS train our puppies from only a few days old which ensures a healthier, happier, puppy/dog for you to have in your family! (Google this if you don’t know what it is) Our parents are also genetically health tested through Embark. We are a ZERO pressure breeder, and what that means is if you want to FaceTime or Zoom to meet one of our puppies we will happily show the puppies to you and answer any questions you might have, and ask some of our own, but we will NEVER pressure you to buy. We believe that for the perfect forever situation to happen, no one should ever feel pressured. The choice should be 100% natural on the part of the buyer so they are happy with their choice and never feel like they were pressured into something they aren’t sure they want. We only want the best for our puppies and their forever families!

and learn all about them! They are all fantastic dogs with the most amazing temperaments! We only choose dogs with the best characteristics and temperaments before breeding, ensuring that the puppies you get will also have these qualities and will make amazing family pets you will cherish for years to come.

Our moms and dads are a huge part of our lives and are given regular vet care and taken on daily walks and given exercise and balanced diets to make sure they are the happiest dogs they can be. Because we value our puppies, we want to make sure they go to the best homes possible. We love to visit with our prospective families to learn all about you and where our puppies will be growing up!

Reasons to buy from us:

*All of our puppies are born and raised in our living room.

*They are interacted with others all day long every day and are well socialized.

*Breeder support. They are like our babies, not just objects to be sold and forgotten. We keep up with our families and love to get updates from them as much as they want to send them to us. We love it, even more, when they start FB or Instagram accounts we can follow!

*We are NOT a kennel or a puppy mill.

*Many breeders keep their puppies and dogs outside in kennels or horse pens without any human interaction…this makes for a very scared puppy that doesn’t adjust well! We do not and will never do this!

*Because our puppies are born and raised inside our house they are exposed to all the sights and sounds of a household (vacuums, blenders, doors slamming, etc etc.) While new noises might still startle them, they adjust quickly and aren’t affected like dogs who have never had this type of exposure before. This makes them happier and more well-adjusted as adult dogs.

*We get texts all the time from our new families telling us how well-adjusted and sweet our puppies are.

*As the puppies get older, they are transitioned to a pen that has a dog door attached. By the time they come home to you, they are well on their way to being dog door trained, making the transition so much easier for you!

*The pen they live in simulates a large crate. Our families that bring home puppies and start crate training say they have no problems with the puppy doing this because they are already used to it!

*All of our puppies come home to you filled to the max with our love, along with a blanket that smells of their littermates, their shot record, and a small bag of dog food.

*They have a contract with a spay/neuter agreement and it also includes a clause that if for any reason during their lifetime something happens and you can no longer care for them, we get the puppy/dog back to us. We never want our animals ending up in a shelter!

We also have an Instagram where we post things daily in our stories and sometimes in our feed.
