Gorgeous Standard & Medium Goldendoodles
Mabel is expecting a litter in early November 2024.
Our waitlist is currently full for our fall 2024 litter of Medium-sized Multigenerational Goldendoodles.
We are taking applications for her waitlist for spots that may open after we have a specific puppy count.
We are also accepting applications and reservations for other upcoming litters including a litter of Standard Multigenerational Goldendoodles next summer, and 2 litters of Medium Multi-Generational Goldendoodles later in the summer or fall.

Why King Family Doodles?
What sets King Family Doodles apart?
Temperament
First, they have calm, tolerant, sweet temperaments. Our puppies have been raised with Puppy Culture, a program that allows puppies to become enrichment-seeking, intelligent learners who have better impulse control. We train our puppies with a clicker before they even turn 5 weeks old. They are taught to ask you for attention by "manding," a sitting pose instead of jumping up or barking. This program starts in the first 16 days of age when puppies are exposed to very small amounts of stress through 5 activities in a protocol called Early Neurological Stimulation. This is a scientifically proven method that has life-long impact on your puppy.
From the AKC website:
"Five benefits have been observed in canines that were exposed to ENS, including improved cardio vascular performance (heart rate); stronger heart beats; stronger adrenal glands; more tolerance to stress; and greater resistance to disease."
KFD works hard to match each puppy to the right family. We use early temperament testing to ensure a smooth transition into each family home.
Health
Second, our puppies' parents were tested through Embark for over 250 genetic conditions known to affect their parent breeds, Standard Poodle and Golden Retriever. Anyone can breed their 2 pets and hope for the best. But, testing for and ruling out any known genetic conditions gives them the best chance of the best life-long health. All of our parent dogs have also gone through the process of OFA testing their hips, elbows, hearts, and eyes. All of these can be found in the OFA database by clicking on the links under their bios on the parents page. This health testing is the highest available for their breeds. Emmie has achieved CHIC registration for Poodles as she has had all of the recommended testing for Poodles, and Mabel has also achieved CHIC registration for Golden Retrievers. This standard does not yet exist for Goldendoodles, but Ollie has also achieved CHIC-level testing for both parent breeds. We will continue to work to uphold these highest level of standards for the health of our dogs and your future puppy.
Training
Our puppies are being trained to use turf for going potty. Turf is one of the best surfaces as it mimics grass, the surface where most puppies will be trained to go potty outside. Puppies are also trained to begin to sleep in a crate. Dogs are den animals. They love to have a quiet, dark space to sleep that fits them well. As mentioned above, puppies have also already been trained to a clicker. Goldendoodles love to please! They are ready and eager to be trained. It's your job to continue this fun activity with your learning-hungry puppy when they arrive at your home. They have a great start here, and our families have told us how much fun they have had training their new puppy in their first weeks and months at home.

About KFD
We are the LeRoy family, Rebecca and Robb. Both of us have worked in Hospice for a couple of decades and see the healing and comfort our dogs have provided for us and others. We hope to pass that on to other families in need of comfort, healing, love, companionship, or all of these!
Our family had a very difficult time finding a Goldendoodle in the PNW when we went looking years ago. We have one son with asthma and a dog allergy. Our first dog was a Golden Retriever who crossed the Rainbow Bridge in the summer of 2020 just before his 14th birthday. When he was still with us, we looked for a new puppy. We wanted the friendly, gentle, loyal Retriever personality we loved with less allergy issues. A Goldendoodle was the perfect option! But, it took months to find one within a few hours of home at a reasonable price. So, we decided there was a need in the PNW. The idea of King Family Doodles was born. We are excited to be able to offer others what we needed and now love, located right in beautiful Kitsap County, WA!
