Our Integrity

KnuDawn Southern Goldendoodles believes in the importance and integrity of Responsible Breeding Practices listed by the Humane Society. [Stop Puppy Mills & How to find a good dog breeder]

Our breeding program only recognizes that genetic health, temperament, and overall appearance is of the utmost importance for dogs to be happy, healthy, and well balanced.

KnuDawn abides by these standards with certification and testing of all our breeding dogs for those diseases that are prevalent in Poodles and Golden Retrievers. To ensure the healthiest puppies and dogs, we depend on extensive genetic testing which includes: OFA or Pennhip for Hip clearances, OFA for Elbows, CERF, OFA Heart, vWd’s, SA and OFA.

The goal of KnuDawn’s breeding program is to produce Goldendoodle puppies who are healthy and strong with temperaments to succeed in service dog work; excel in agility as well as obedience; become Canine Good Citizens; and just as importantly, to become fun-loving, and devoted members of a family.

We accomplish these goals by breeding dogs with an advantageous blend of intelligence, obedient temperaments, and strong healthy bodies. Naturally, all of these traits make for the best pets: a happy and healthy canine ready to learn, provide friendship and plenty of affection.
