Hello, my name is Anne. Growing up at Sunshine Acres, I've worked with puppies for as long as I can remember. My parents started Sunshine Acres in 2001 and have been providing families with happy, healthy puppies for many years. In 2018, they began incorporating the Bernese Mountain Dog into their Irish Goldendoodle hybrid, resulting in the adorable and family friendly pet, the Bernese Irish Goldendoodle, aka the B.I.G. Doodle. While we were searching for the perfect purebred Poodle puppy to cross to the B.I.G. lines, I discovered how difficult it is to find a breeder who did all the health, genetic, and color testing with their parents that was required for our new puppy. So I decided to also raise purebred poodles with all the testing done on my parent dogs that a good breeder (and families who want a healthy puppy) would require. And that is where I am today!
