We just picked up our little guy from Lakeshore Doodles and the entire experience has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. You can immediately tell how much care and intention goes into everything they do — from how the dogs are raised, to how thoughtfully they match each puppy with the right home.They provide so much helpful information throughout the process — detailed reading materials, videos, and guidance that truly prepare you to become puppy parents. It made us feel confident and supported every step of the way.Jim and his entire team have been incredible. They answered countless emails and questions as we prepared for our boy, and Jessica was especially wonderful — recommending treats, helping us choose the right supplies, and making sure we felt fully ready.We also really appreciated how patient and supportive everyone was during the picking process. They gave us the time and space we needed to choose the puppy who felt right for our home, which meant so much to us.Now we’re heading home with our little guy and couldn’t be more excited. We are so grateful for this experience and highly recommend Lakeshore Doodles to anyone looking for a breeder who truly cares.

Winnie is my second Lakeshore doodle dog and she is the best dog ever!! She came to us so well socialized, she loves people, she is gentle, she doesn’t bark at all, and is the sweetest girl!! I highly recommend Lakeshore. They really breed the best dogs and truly care about all their puppies.

Lakeshore Doodles was fantastic to work with. From the beginning Jim is upfront and goes over everything about bringing home a puppy and how the puppy pick up works. We absolutely love our puppy and couldn’t have asked for a better breeder to work with!

We had a wonderful experience with Lakeshore Doodles! Getting to go in with all of the dogs that were available at the time and be able to pick which one worked best for our family was the best experience! We are so in love with our puppy! We highly recommend Lakeshore Doodles!

When you get serious about getting a new puppy think about this:Where do you go, and what are you looking for: once you’ve decided on the breed then start the homework: In our case, we researched for about 6- months to a year.Until we found Lakeshore Doodles!We followed their website on the breeding process and their commitment to protect the integrity of the Golden- Poodle mix.We couldn’t be happier, with Jim, his intelligence & passion for what he does.Sold:: Lakeshore Doodles for us and a continued relationship for years.Our Mini- Golden-Doodles name is Oliver.He’s now 12- weeks old & super intelligent.I’m going to share a Chess game for dogs, and just watch Oliver test his skills!If you’re looking to add to your family with a Pooch , don’t hesitate to check out Lakeshore. Ps: It almost sounds like a sales pitch, however, No! I’m just a happy 75 yr old guy that I’m embraces life and has wanted a little one for a long time.So happy Oliver landed on my steps! He will have a great Life! Thank you Jim & staff at Lakeshore Doodles!

We are absolutely in love with our new puppy Coco previously " Nancy " from Nora and Benny's litter. She is very calm, affectionate and easy to train. She has transitioned easily to our home and able to play with our other pups in just 2 days. She has a gorgeous creamy white coat with brown markings on her ears, back and tail. Our 3 yr old female F1B goldendoodle now has a little sister. Jim, we can't believe you personally transported our beautiful pup from NY to CA. It is a very long flight and thank you so much for making sure she arrives to us happy and healthy. We so appreciate you and your staff!

Our experience with Lakeshore was excellent. So happy with our decision to get our amazing Riley from them. Jim and his whole team are incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, patient, and overall outstanding at what they do as superior Goldendoodle breeders. Jim, the owner, spent time with us on several calls discussing the process, how to select the right dog for our family, and what we could expect. We attended the Open House and his staff were also super friendly and willing to chat about any topic we had questions about. Our family is so happy we worked with them in picking Riley (formerly Noelle) and would highly recommend! Thank you Jim and team!

Lakeshore Labradoodles was great from the start! Got back to me right away. Answered every question I had and I was so impressed by the humane and amazing facilities! My bernadoodle baby Wrenly has been such a doll and it’s because she was used to being loved BEFORE I got her. I highly recommend them for your next best friend!!

From the very first conversation, our experience with Lakeshore Doodles was nothing short of exceptional. When I first reached out, I shared that I was still grieving the loss of my 17 year old dog that had recently passed away. Jim was never pushy in the slightest. Instead, he was incredibly sincere, compassionate, and understanding, which meant more to us than he probably realizes.The moment we saw Josie and Clyde’s litter, we knew it was the right fit for our family. I asked a lot of questions along the way, and Jim was always patient, highly knowledgeable, and extremely responsive. It is very clear that Lakeshore Doodles genuinely cares about their dogs and the way they are raised, not just as puppies, but as future family members. On puppy picking day, Jim and his team (especially Jessica who was incredible) were refreshingly honest and transparent about each puppy’s temperament and which would be the best match for our family. We ultimately chose a puppy we never would have picked based on photos alone and Lucy has already exceeded every expectation. She has been absolutely incredible and already feels like part of our family, and it’s only been one day.If you’re considering adding a dog to your family, you can feel 100% at ease knowing that Lakeshore Doodles raises their puppies with care, integrity, and love. We are truly impressed and deeply grateful. Thank you again to Jim, Jessica, and the entire Lakeshore team. You are all amazing.

We love our new Lakeshore puppy! He’s very sweet and the process couldn’t have gone any smoother. Communication was great and transparent. The puppies are well cared for and the facility where the puppies are raised is very clean and well maintained. We’re thrilled to have a Lakeshore doodle join our family.

We love Lakeshore Doodles. This is our second dog and we’re so beyond grateful. The best temperament, the smartest dogs.A true Joy! Thank you!

Jim and his team at Lakeshore Doodles have been amazing. We adopted our sweet girl on October 25 2025. After a few weeks, we decided she would benefit from a certified board and train program. We contacted Jim for his advice. He was kind enough to refer us to a trainer who will only board and train puppies from Lakeshore Doodles because she knows the quality of puppy she will be working with. Our girl quickly learned how to sit, stay, and is just about potty trained. She is crate trained and has been sleeping through the night, 9pm-6:30am. We look forward to many happy years with her. Thank you Jim Gray ❤️

We were very happy with our experience with everyone at Lakeshore Doodles. We appreciated them accommodating us with both a virtual and in-person meeting before committing to our puppy. Their understanding, responsiveness, and knowledge really put us at ease. It was obvious our puppy was well loved while she was there and we’re enjoying her so much now that she’s in our home. We definitely will recommend Lakeshore Doodles to family and friends.

We couldn’t be happier with our bestest boy Cooper (formerly known as green collar boy). Jim made the adoption process super clear and was transparent and helpful each step of the way. Have already referred multiple friends to them for their future pup. Thank you Lakeshore Doodles! 🐶💚

We had a great experience with Jim and Lakeshore Doodles. Our puppy has the sweetest temperament- definitely a reflection of the loving care he received with Jim and his team. The whole process was smooth and easy. Jim is responsive and answers all his questions. We love our newest family member!
