I believe golden retrievers and doodles should be a part of a family! They are such loving breeds! Our mama's are our family pets here On Papa's Farm. Oakley and Cherry live with us. We homeschool, so they spend each day inside next to the kids while they do schoolwork and go outside to play when the kids need a break from lessons. Our other mama's, Vegas and Ruby, live in Partner/Co-Owner homes. They too are cherished family pets. I firmly believe all mama's deserve to be a part of a family. It also allows us to truly get to know their personalities and tendencies, so I can make better breeding decisions.
About the sires - I have considered purchasing a male to use in my program, but I have been warned by multiple breeders that it is unwise to keep an unneutered male in the house with unsprayed females. The males will spray. So while I'd love to own my own male, I also want any dog I own to be able to live in a home with a family. Until I find a partner home (that does not have any unsprayed females) willing to own an unneutered male, I pay for stud service when I breed.
