I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Sandy and Peters’ Puppies. When identifying a breeder, it was very important to me to find someone who bred puppies ethically and raised them in their home as part of their family. It’s clear Sandy and her family love all the puppies as their own until they head to their forever homes. We also have a kiddo with allergies so needed to make sure the puppy we brought her home would not cause problems for her. Sandy educated us about the genes commonly associated with pet allergies and knew the genotypes of her dogs which helped us decide which litter and puppy would be best for us. She also sent us fur samples from dogs with different genetic backgrounds so we could test if our daughter would have any issues with the fur. Throughout the whole process Sandy was in constant communication with us and posted multiple videos daily so we could watch the puppies grow and get a sense of each pup’s personality. The pupsalso underwent temperament testing and Sandy to give us an honest assessment of their strengths and areas for improvement. Sandy is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and raising puppies. Even now after we’ve taken our puppy home, she checks in frequently to see how we’re doing with our puppy and offers helpful advice to make the transition more smooth. Our boy, Maverick, came to us already crate trained and mostly housebroken thanks to all the effort Sandy has already put in beforehand. I highly recommend Peters’ Puppies to anyone looking for a goldendoodle!

I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am to Sandy and Peter’s Puppies and the incredible experience my family and I have had with them!!! After a traumatic experience years ago I knew I was looking for a very specific breeder and program, and this is that. From the very beginning, Sandy went above and beyond personally talking with me, answering all my questions, and making sure I felt completely informed and comfortable every step of the way. Her warmth, patience, and genuine care were truly unmatched. We also would not be surviving this puppy process without the plethora of resources, information and support that is provided and encouraged to utilize!! We were/are so impressed and appreciative of Sandy’s son Leo, who offers additional puppy training when available!! He sent pictures, videos, and training tips, while continuing to be a resource upon puppies arrival home. Sandy and her family pour their hearts into these puppies, preparing them not only for a smooth transition into their new homes but also setting them up for lifelong success. There is no doubt that this is Sandy’s life work, and the compassion, care, and energy she puts into her dogs and puppies (and future owners)is nothing I’ve ever seen before. I 100% recommend Peter’s Puppies!!!!

I found Peter’s Puppies after doing some deep diving into breeders, specifically breeders who are committed to ethical breeding. I was delighted to find out that Sandy breeds for service dog prospects, which is exactly what we were looking for. We were overwhelmed with all of the information out there about SD prospects, especially with it being such a huge investment financially and emotionally, we wanted to ensure this was the right fit. From the moment we got on our Zoom call, you could tell how passionate Sandy is about her dogs and her program. She is extremely committed to her dogs going to good families, as well as ensuring the families that are looking for service dog prospects understand her process to ensure the best fit. Her decades of experience with dogs and service dogs is INVALUABLE. I cannot stress this enough. She is a wealth of knowledge and I’m beyond grateful that we found her. Sandy having so many resources prepared us for the big hill to climb that is service dog prospect training, as well as linking us up with Cortney at Anchors Away canine academy. Knowing that these two women with decades of experience would be helping us choose what service dog prospect to pick made the entire experience as stress free as it could be. We could not be more thrilled with our puppy, she is the smartest puppy I’ve ever met, extremely loving and eager to train- could not have asked for a better dog. Did I also mention they essentially come home potty trained? Seriously. What more could you ask for?? Because of the outstanding communication, dedication, knowledge, and overall experience we’ve had with her and her family, we’ll be lifelong customers. I highly recommend Peter’s Puppies to anyone looking for a service dog prospect, or just a well rounded, loving puppy to bring to your family. You won’t regret it.

Peter’s Puppies is not like the other breeders we have received puppies from previously. Sandy is extremely knowledgeable and she begins training her puppies from the start. She even puts together a schedule for you to ensure a smooth transition to your home. We welcomed a happy, healthy, and practically potty trained puppy into our home and could not be happier. They go above and beyond! I highly recommend!

I can’t even begin to explain how amazing Peter’s Puppies is. Sandy is incredible…so passionate about her work, honest, communicative. She sent pictures/videos and was very quick to respond to any questions. Our tiny puppy came to our home essentially potty trained and crate trained. Our entire experience was flawless. We have been spoiled with the best little puppy and can’t wait for all of our adventures.

We got a mini Bernedoodle this summer and he is great! He is a smart boy, quick to learn, food motivated and great with my 1 and 3 year old. We are beyond impressed with the communication and attentiveness from Sandy. She truly wants her pups to live a long happy life in their new homes. The price of the pup is 100% worth it for how much testing and effort she puts into before even breeding a dog. 1000% recommend this breeder!! We live in Michigan and making the 12 hour drive down and back was worth it!!
