Bourbon and Lace Doodles

Selecting a puppy from Bourbon & Lace was an amazing experience. Rachael’s daily videos of the puppies were so fun to watch, informative, and really gave us a sense of their personalities, making the selection easier when we couldn’t travel for the 7week puppy visit. Rachael does an amazing job of raising, socializing and caring for the puppies. It was so nice to bring home a puppy whose routines and training we already understood- it made everything smoother and gave us real peace of mind. Extra bonus was receiving a puppy that was comfortable with a crate and already sitting for attention. Can’t recommend enough, totally worth the drive!

Fantastic communication throughout the entire process. I don’t think I waited more than 5 minutes for a response ever. The breeder is eager to answer any and all questions and is very transparent. A big selling point for us in picking this breeder was not only does she do thorough health clearances, she also posts results online for you to review yourself. There have been zero health surprises after bringing our puppy home. She fits perfectly into our family and meshes with our two young kids. We couldn’t be happier. The vet even mentioned that she’s the most mellow Goldendoodle puppy she has ever encountered.

We don’t see many breeder-to-breeder reviews, so I wanted to share my experience from the perspective of an ethical breeding program. Rachel was recommended to me by another amazing breeder I trust, so from the start I felt confident she would be someone I could work with. Very quickly we became “audio message buddies” (multitasking breeders unite!), and I discovered just how incredibly knowledgeable she is. Rachel has helped me in so many areas — from analyzing products under a microscope, to different crating techniques, to evaluating what to look for in a correct bite. We’ve also spent countless hours bouncing ideas off each other. It has truly become a wonderful partnership built on shared values, transparency, and mutual support. In March 2026, we will be welcoming our first Bourbon & Lace future stud into our program, and we could not be more excited. I highly recommend Rachel, Bourbon & Lace to ethical breeders seeking a like-minded program — whether you are looking to add a potential puppy to your program or simply want guidance from a mentor with a wealth of knowledge. Thank you, Rachel, for your expertise, guidance, support, and friendship. I look forward to our future working together! Desiree' Lundeedoodles

Absolutely Outstanding Experience with Bourbon and Lace Doodles! We couldn’t be more thrilled with our experience working with Bourbon and Lace Doodles.

She kept us updated every step of the way with photos, videos, and insights into how the puppies were developing, which made the entire process feel personal and reassuring. What truly sets Bourbon and Lace Doodles apart is the extra care and love they put into raising their dogs. It’s clear each puppy is treated like family, and the attention to socialization, health, and early training was evident the moment we brought our puppy home. The quality of the dog we received is outstanding—healthy, well-adjusted, and with the sweetest temperament. It’s obvious that our puppy had a strong foundation thanks to the time and energy invested from day one.

How does this review sound: I had an outstanding experience with Bourbon and Lace Doodles, and I can't recommend Rachael enough. From the moment we inquired about getting a puppy, Rachael went above and beyond. She consistently shared daily content of the puppies, which allowed us to watch our future furry friend grow and develop. Rachael's dedication to crate training and teaching the puppies to sit prior to us bringing our puppy home was impressive. It made the transition into our home incredibly smooth. Our puppy, Coco, was well-prepared and adapted seamlessly. There was no whining or barking, which is a testament to Rachael's expertise in breeding and early training. Furthermore, Rachael was an absolute pleasure to deal with throughout the entire process. Her communication, knowledge, and genuine care for her puppies and their new families shine through. Choosing Bourbon Lace and Doodles was one of the best decisions we made, and we're grateful for Rachael's exceptional work. Our family couldn't be happier with our new addition, thanks to her dedication and expertise.
