If you have selected the Goldendoodle as the right fit for your family, you are now faced with another set of choices to pick the perfect best friend to add to your house:
An experienced breeder has raised hundreds of goldendoodles and can help families navigate all of these decisions and will help match your family’s needs to their pups. Chicago residents are in luck, as Wisconsin boasts several reputable goldendoodle breeders within a comfortable drive. Here are the five closest to Chicago in order of closest to farthest.
The owner, Nicole, breeds dogs just 70 minutes and 65 miles away from Chicago. Renowned for focusing on health and well socialized puppies, Midwest Goldendoodle and Labradoodle offers a variety of size of multigenerational (non shedding) petite goldendoodles, mini goldendoodles and the occasional standard sizes and picked up from her family magic shop.
90 minutes and 90 miles from Chicago, Milwaukee Doodles stands out with its commitment to family-friendly puppies since 2006. Milwaukee Doodles breed mini goldendoodles and standard goldendoodles that are affectionate and well-suited to family life and they are raised in their home around their children.
Just on the north side of Milwaukee, two hours and 125 miles away, Cedar Lake Doodles awaits. Amy, the owner, loves pairing each family with one of her furry kissable babies and provides a great experience with many videos on her social platforms as the puppies grow up!
Both situated approximately 3 hours and 190 miles from Chicago, Beck Kennel Goldendoodles and Goldendoodle Acres are the farthest drive, but have many 5 star review boasting their dogs! They both have a robust facebook page where you caught a peak of your future goldendoodle puppies on video or in some adorable pictures.
Remember, each puppy is truly unique, and distance is just one factor in your decision. Consider each breeder’s approach, the puppy’s individual traits, and how they fit into your lifestyle and family dynamics. These puppies will become your furry babies before long, and so going in fully informed is essential.
All of these Wisconsin breeders are dedicated to raising healthy, happy goldendoodles! Ask each breeder about the genetic and OFA health testing performed on breeding pups.
