"As first time puppy owners, we began our search knowing we wanted to find a breeder who we connected well with and who was as invested in the homing process as we were. From the moment we first reached out to Rocky Legend Doodles, we knew we had found this.

As part of the process, we set up a video chat with them shortly after we had first reached out. It was a short chat, but we knew right away that we had found a breeder who would support us throughout the entire journey, and who we could ask the many questions we knew we would have. Boy were we right! Rocky Legend Doodles was always very easy to contact, and thoroughly answered all the questions we bombarded them with. They were full of useful advice and tips, and helped us make sure that we were as ready as possible to bring our puppy home. In addition to all the information they provided, one of our favourite parts of the experience was all of the updates we got! At least once a week, they posted beautiful quality photos and videos of the puppies, giving us good insight into the personalities of the different puppies and making us feel like we were getting to see the litter grow up right in front of our eyes.
Rocky Legend Doodles is more than a business. They have an emotional investment in every puppy they raise, and go above and beyond to ensure that the homing and transition process go smoothly for both puppy and “paw”rent. Even now, months after bringing Hank home, we are still frequently in touch, and they enthusiastically answer any questions that come up. We definitely feel that we found more than just a breeder, we found a family at Rocky Legend Doodles. Can’t wait to get a sibling for Hank in a couple years!"

"Lake eased our transition/relocation by bringing so much joy with his loyal companionship and interest in everything we do (from packing/chores to meetings at home).

We’d wanted an attentive pup but Lake honestly exceeded our expectations.

He is a professional cuddlepuff, sweet, goofy, attentive, affectionate and of course he’s not perfect but we appreciate that he picks up commands quickly.

He has captured not just our hearts but everyone around us. Unbeknownst to us, he has become the “model dog/child”… friends would always say ‘I wanna get a pup as sweet as Lake!”. We had brought us so much joy  and are grateful everyday that he’s now part of our family.

 

From the get go, Lauricia and Ashley have been so patient and generous with their wealth of information and experience. We can always rely on them for tips/advice, they’re responsive and reassuring! Also incredibly calm, which is why RLD puppies mirror that. Having that head start was great because the foundation has been laid so we could continue nurturing calmness with training. With the resources and recommended resources on dog psychology, we can now reach a whole other level of love and bond with Lake.

We love RLD and are grateful to be part of the RLD family!"

"After dreaming of mini Doodles vicariously through Instagram for a couple of years, we stumbled across Rocky Legend Doodles unexpectedly through a Google search. It did not take long to see that this was one of the luckiest and best searches we had ever done. After a week of following RLD on social media, reading through their entire website, and watching them with their Spring litters we knew they were the right fit for us.

From the first conversations we could see how much care, love, and attention went into everything for their puppies. Honestly, we were super nervous sending our application in because we had fallen for what is now our Kaia, and we were so afraid we wouldn’t meet their standards. Thankfully they responded quickly and within two weeks we had our FaceTime interview, were approved, and brought Kaia home.

Fast forward three months and after learning our senior dog had some health issues, we approached RLD about the possibility of adding another puppy to our family and were fortunate 6 weeks later to bring our Maisy home!

Adding Rocky Legend Doodle puppies to our home has been one of the best and most fulfilling decisions we have made in a long time!! Through both processes not only has the RLD team taken us in and made us feel like family, but we have connected with so many other RLD pawrents and our network of support is incredible. We can’t say enough good things about RLD puppies and the team that raise them. Each puppy is raised with love and given such a great start for their furever homes. Thank you Rocky Legend for picking us to be a part of your puppy family!!"

-Tyler & Lisa

"We have had the best experience with Rocky Legend Doodles! Not only is our puppy an absolute dream (all thanks to their incredible breeding and early imprinting and training they do with the pups), but the entire process has been wonderful! Ashley and Lauricia care so deeply about connecting the puppy with the correct family, they answered all of our questions and had such great communication with us prior to, and after we brought our little guy home. 

 

We are so aligned with the holistic lifestyle of the dogs, and they provide families with amazing resources, tons of training tools and info! I could go on and on about how thrilled we are. I love that they have checked in to see how everyone is doing (they even remembered that our senior dog wasn’t doing great and asked about him). I guess it feels kind of like being part of a family. Working with RLD  is so different from our previous experience, and we are so grateful to them for bringing this little bundle of love into our lives! 

 

To speak a little more to their early imprinting and training; our puppy is comfortable with daily brushing, weekly nail trims, baths, and he even fell asleep while being blow dried! He is such a quick learner and such a breeze to train! We are so in love, and we cannot thank them enough!"

-Alia & Jac

"I fell in love with my friends' pup Romeo, who came into their lives from the RLD Family. I knew almost instantly that THIS is the kind of companion I am looking for. I asked my friends ALL the questions about the breeder, their experience with the process and life with mini double doodle so far. Every answer I received brought a smile to my face and checked the box in my heart next to my internal requirements for a furry friend. We spent almost a week hiking all together in the mountains and me, being my adventurous self, understood that Romeo, the mountain goat, is the motivation I need to make myself hike to the summit hahah

I sent an e-mail to RLD with my intent to sign up for a next litter shortly after this trip and that's where my excitement started peaking through the roof.

The whole process since I made a decision to get a pup from RLD until now that my little girl Rhubarb (Tansy from Caffeine and Co Collection) is 4 months old was just so easy, seamless and stress/worry-free. The Rocky Legend Doodles Team provided me with all the updates on the litter I signed up for and later on specific puppy I chose online (due to covid). At first I wasn't sure how it'll all go (for instance, choosing the puppy online), but I got a chance to "meet" all the little ones on a video call, learn about their little personalities and behaviours and choose the little girl that "stole" my heart even through the webcam :) I did truly feel that "this is the one" light that came on in my head as I saw her. And from that moment onwards it was just a forever-lasting countdown to a BIG HOMING DAY. Now I have a best friend that is so very loved from the day she was born  I know how much RLD Family cares for every pup they bring into this world and it doesn't stop on a day new owners pick them up. I still keep in touch with them whenever I have a question that Ashley and Lauricia may have a better insight on and I do truly feel that I can rely on their support and responsibility they carry as breeders.

I am a huge fan of all the information RLD shares on proper puppy raising/training/exercising/feeding/enriching etc. All the resources provided by them are bookmarked and re-visited by me on multiple occasions. I am a first time pet owner and I felt prepared to welcome my little girl into my world with the information from RLD blog posts on their website (so easy, accessible, well-explained, practical and relatable!). I also love a little "community" of Rocky Legend Doodle owners that I met through the RLD's social media. We all keep in touch, share our experiences and joy. I love it!

Overall I give 11/10 to the Rocky Legend Doodles Team. They changed my life in the best way possible by giving me my best friend, my favourite adventure partner, my personal fluffy comedian (it is never a dull moment with little doodle), my stress-relief, my world  It was one of my best life decisions to get a puppy from them! 

 

Thank you so much for giving my life a whole new purpose and showing me the whole new level of love I've never experienced before, RLD ."

"As a first time dog mom, perpetual over planner, and with so much love to give, I’m over joyed with my experience with Rocky Legend Doodles.

From my very first interactions, to the ongoing support after homing day, I knew that if they gave this much support to their homing families, that their moms and puppies couldn’t be in a more loving home in their early weeks.

Their holistic approach, small litters, and one on one matching with families brings the most loving, happy, beautiful puppies into our lives and I’ll forever be grateful.

 

If you’re looking for a puppy to melt your heart, a breeder that raises them more naturally than a California yoga retreat, and care and support as you raise your puppy you can’t find a better breeder!”

​

-Gawiya

"From the very first interaction, RLD has been amazing, ensuring that we had all the information we needed before, during and after bringing our puppy home. They went the extra mile to accommodate us in getting her home as we had to travel to get her here. We couldn’t believe how calm she was in those first few puppy days and beyond.

She has been raised with love and so much care.

We would hands down recommend Rocky Legend Doodles!"

​

-Dana F.

"Working with RLD has been so easy!

The girls are just easy-going, kind, and you can tell they just love their puppies & their jobs so much. Even now they're available to answer questions that we have, and it's just been awesome working with them.

What I I loved about RLD was how active they are on social media. It allowed us to see who they were, what their puppies are like beforehand. You get to see so many BTS videos and they give out so much free information, which really set us up for success.

I loved that they raised their puppies holistically -- that was really important to us.

My favourite thing about Coco is how sweet and gentle and tolerant he is with our totally wild 3 year old son, haha! They are like the best of friends, and it's beautiful to watch.

He's also so sweet with new people & strangers, and we love him!"

 

-Marcella    

"Our experience with Rocky Legend Doodles has been incredible!

​

From our very first messages together, they have supported us the whole way! They were quick to reply to our inquiries, attentive, and genuinely interested in us as future puppy parents. We knew we had chosen a great breeder from the moment we met them on our Facetime call! They were easy to talk with, answered all our questions, and informed us of all the next steps and what to expect as first time owners. They also have an abundance of great information on their website and blog to help tackle many questions first time owners will have and great recommendations for local products.

We received weekly updates as our little pup grew, and the closer we got to homing day, the more information they sent us.

Rocky Legend Doodles provided us with a stream of knowledge so that we felt confident enough to conquer all of the “firsts” with our little guy!

We could not be happier with the newest member of our family.

Benji continues to get compliments on his personality and his amazing temperament! He is happy, easy going, and a very quick learner!

If you are considering a puppy from these amazing breeders, rest assured you will be in great hands and will have an even greater dog.
We are so blessed to be a part of the Rocky Legend Doodle family, Thank You!”

"We cannot speak highly enough about your engagement all the way through our purchasing Earl from you; the support and great advice provided; and the really thoughtful puppy package that came with him the day we picked him up. Even the way in which you are set up for families to come and pick up their pups is impressive.

 

Earl has been a true blessing to us, bringing all the delights of a new puppy, family member, and a joyful bundle of therapy in our crazy world, all rolled in to one. His personality is just as you described it; and it suits us very well. This lively, intelligent ball of love and fun blended in to our home and family with ease; and within a day it became hard to imagine life before, or without him.

 

The temperament and condition of your puppies speak volumes as to what sort of breeders they have come from. Having spoken with you; met with you, and engaged with you on Social Media, it is so clear that the puppies get their balance and great temperament from a great team of human beings, that put a lot of hard work in to finding the best homes for their dogs.

 

It has been a true pleasure, not only to have Earl in our lives; but also to have met some of the Team at Rocky Legend Doodles -  We can’t recommend you highly enough.

 

Thank you for everything!"

"From the moment we met Nash, our family was complete.

​

We were nervous being that it was our first family pet but from the first FaceTime we had with the girls from RLD, we knew it was the right fit. Not only were they informative, kind and caring, they put our minds at ease with any questions we had.

We travelled by road and plane to pick up Nash and from start to finish they made sure we were accommodated and that Nash had what he needed for us to get him home safe and sound.

​

We were told how smart their dogs were but never knew to what magnitude…. These pups are incredibly smart, loving, gentle, happy and loyal. So much goes into the pups from before birth to when they are ready to go to their forever homes and we can’t thank RLD enough for all that they put in to ensure the pups are healthy, happy, smart and content.

​

We love love love RLD and thank them for choosing us with their little Quill (now Nash).”

"Posey has been doing amazing.

She was so easy to kennel train and has had very few accidents ever!

She is such a good eater and is always up for playing.

Although she isn’t a huge cuddle puppy, she always likes to be near people. She is so social and friendly! 

 

Working with you has been so wonderful.

As a first time dog owner I have always felt like I could ask any question and not feel ridiculous about it.

​

I appreciate the way you approach the health of your dogs and advocate for the same level of care from owners. Thank you for being willing to share your wisdom and experience! Thank you for your dedication to raising beautiful puppies! It is an honour to call one of them mine."

​

-Brittney P.

"He’s my bestie.

He has been such an eager to learn, calm dog. The best thing I’ve taught him is “look at me”. If we are out on a walk and I say that, he doesn’t even pay attention to people passing or other dogs.

I make time to go for a walk with him each morning and when I work at home he just lays at my feet."

​

-Jolene

"My husband and I were so happy to welcome our puppy from Rocky Legend Doodles into our world in November 2020. Bawzie (originally Marshmallow) has been an absolute joy to have in our lives. She is well mannered, calm, sweet and very smart.

 

The wonderful family at Rocky Legend Doodles played a massive role in how great she is. The environment that these pups are born into is so peaceful and loving, there is no doubt that this impacts the outcome of their personalities.

From the moment we contacted RLD we were sure that they were the right path for us. They were so friendly but also very serious about making sure that we were the right fit, and we really appreciated that.

 

We highly recommend this wonderful breeder and their absolutely gorgeous double doodles.
Hope to one day bring another Rocky Legend Doodle home to give our sweet girl a sibling!"

​

-Jody & Steve

"We chose to get a puppy from Rocky Legend Doodles because a family friend recommended them. From the first email we got from them, we knew that RLD was the breeder for us.

​

As first-time dog owners, we had a lot of questions, and the team was rapid in responding to all of our questions and concerns. In addition, their blog is very informative and helpful for preparing to bring a puppy home.

 

Toby is 4 months old now and he is a fantastic dog! From day one, he was very attentive and eager to learn new things. His training is coming along quite well, and we can tell he will be a very smart doggo.

His temperament is perfect for our family, playful, goofy, intelligent, and loving.

We couldn't ask for a better dog, and we are incredibly thankful to Rocky Legend Doodle for putting in the groundwork for the first 8 weeks."

​

-Amaan

"Watson has been an absolute joy to have as part of our family. He is so sweet and caring and probably the most chill member of our family.

We have several friends and guests to our home comment on how relaxed he is for such a young dog.

He has been very adaptable to changes, we have moved twice since getting him.

He also is so good with my children and accepts their ‘training’ with a lot of patience. 

My favourite thing about him has to be how much he loves to snuggle and the little noises he makes when he settles himself to get comfy. You would think he is an old man already! 

​

Thank you to the Rocky Legend Doodle team for bringing him into our lives.

I am biased but Splash and Kynlee make the best and cutest puppies!"

-Karina

"After loads of research into different breeders, we decided on going with Rocky Legend Doodles and we couldn’t have made a better decision. We have only had positive interactions with this family run business, they are wonderful to deal with, responsive, thoughtful and caring people. 

 

During our decision making process, it became abundantly clear to us that their main goal is to breed healthy, happy puppies and place them with families who will appreciate these lovely dogs. Once the time came to pick up our little guy and we brought him home, we saw how truly amazing and smart these dogs are.

What I believe their breeding expertise brings to the table, is how calm and happy our puppy is, clearly he was brought into the world into a healthy and loving environment. He has never been a nervous dog, he is smart, been extremely trainable (just over a week to fully house train) and adapted to our family immediately. I think this all speaks to how the puppies are cared for in those early weeks. From a health standpoint, our puppy is a good eater, has a great digestive system and is growing in leaps and bounds. He is a very social little guy who just wants love, to be played with and of course treats!

 

The girls from Rocky Legend sent us home with a ton of excellent information and a lovely goodie bag of treats and essentials for our puppy. I have only good things to say about the folks at Rocky Legend Doodles and the excellent job they do."

​

-Kathy

"The Rocky Legend Doodles team has been awesome! It was our first puppy so we were quite nervous and unsure about everything. We felt instantly at ease though after having our first chat with Ashley and Lauricia. They've been supportive and responsive throughout the whole process.

 

Our puppy loves everyone (human and fellow pups) and thrives around others. He always approaches new things with curiosity and never fails to make us laugh.

 

We wouldn't hesitate to go back to Rocky Legend Doodles again if we were looking for another addition to our family in the future!"

​

-Carmen

"We chose to get a puppy from Rocky Legend Doodles because a friend recommended them and because of how great RLD was from the first time we contacted them.  

They answered all the questions we had (there were a lot!) and sent a lot of useful tips for bringing home a puppy.  We loved the pictures of our puppy while we were waiting to take her home.  

 

Kalua is 6 months old now and she is an amazing dog!  She slept through the night from the time we brought her home and was very easy to house train. She adjusted to her new home very quickly and is a wonderful addition to our family.  She is a very smart dog and knows lots of tricks.  She loves people and other animals (even cats but not squirrels and birds so much!).  She is a very calm dog and has an amazing temperament.  She has come to dog friendly patios with us and even went golfing.  

Everyone comments about how good she is.  We couldn’t ask for a better dog - we love her!"

"There is no other way to put this - I would not be the pet parent I am if I had not met RLD.

 

After struggling through the pandemic alone, I knew I was ready for a puppy and I knew I wanted a doodle. Truthfully, I put myself on several waitlists of breeders friends had used, and was prepared to get whichever mini doodle could come my way fastest. 

​

When I met RLD I was immediately struck by how much their approach to breeding and raising dogs matched the values I had for my own life. I would never have even considered what raising a balanced puppy would look like, and because of them I found myself up late at night for weeks reading about dog psychology, holistic pet nutrition, learning to become a Pack Leader, and training a puppy to be calm from day one. RLD made me feel like I had what it took to be the calm, confident leader that raises a balanced dog! 

​

It was also incredibly apparent the care and attention they put into the first 8 weeks with the puppies - when I brought Walnut home, he was very calm and curious, had minimal crate anxiety after the first two nights, and was completely litter trained (which transitioned beautifully to outside!). I saw firsthand that they spend lots of time with the puppies, they put extreme effort into starting their training and desensitization from day one, and the love and deep care they have for the puppies even after they come home. 

​

Because I met them, I’m raising Walnut to be a balanced dog, and it shows.

When we meet people on walks or adventures, they always comment on how calm and well-behaved he is despite being a 4 month old puppy.

 

I can’t wait to see the dog he grows up to be - he is already so observant, sassy, affectionate, and smart. This will not be my last RLD - they’re a part of the family now."

​

-Robin

"I have told you before but Fraser is honestly the best addition to our family. He loves to do all the things we love to do and being outside in the backyard is his happy place, just like us. The girls tell us all the time how happy they are that we got him, and how much they love him.

It took us girls some selling to do Mike, but he admits to everyone how much he loves him and how good of a puppy he is.

 

We were away for a week and my parents watched him. My mom did not want to give him back! She loved how he was her best friend and gave her cuddles.

Everyone who has helped us with him actually does not want to give him back.

​

Our neighbours that have similar breed dogs cannot get over how calm he is. We gets along so well with other dogs.

We honestly love him so much!""

-Fallon

"We got our little buddy from Rocky Legend Doodles almost a year ago. 

I had followed their Instagram for over a year before we finally decided to change our lives forever.   I loved how they invited us into their world and showed us how the puppies were raised right from the get go.

We were so impressed with their methods and it definitely contributed to the awesome puppy we have right now.   

His calm, playful demeanor brings us such joy.

 

We would highly recommend Rocky Legend Doodles!!!"

"I can’t say enough about the Rocky Legend Doodle team, they are amazing. 

 

We had a less conventional way of welcoming one of their puppies into our home…we didn’t pick a puppy from the litter at the usual puppy picking week.

We came across Swansea (previously Cochrane) on Instagram when she was around 4 months old. All of her adorable pictures and videos caught my eye and I couldn’t stop checking daily to see if she was still available. I sent a few messages being curious for more information and the RLD team was always very responsive. When I decided to fill out the application form our family was so hopeful to be selected. We had a great FaceTime interview where we learned about the holistic manner that they raise their puppies and this was a huge bonus to our family. RLD decided we would be a good fit and we decided to pick up our puppy the next day!! The RLD team happily (and promptly) answered all my questions while I went shopping that morning for everything we would need prior to picking her up to come home. 

 

The check ins and contact we still have with the RLD team is a testament to the love and attachment they have to each puppy! I still message them with the odd question and their knowledge and responses are always appreciated (and usually followed up with the sharing of photos). 

 

Swansea is such an amazing puppy. She is playful, and silly but also so calm and smart. She learns new tricks/house rules so quickly and is so gentle and loving with our kids. We have only had her for 4 months and couldn’t be happier to have her puppy energy in our home. 

 

Swansea spent 4 months with the RLD team and I truly believe they shaped her into the loving, fun puppy that she is!

We highly recommend Rocky Legend Doodles!"

-Tara

"We were looking for the best breed for our family as we have a special needs daughter, and found out that Golden Doodles would be the one.

 

Then, the mission was to find the best breeder and just after a few searches we got to Rocky Legend. I was glad to see how their dogs are raised and the way they care for them and we were lucky that Serafina, now Mia, was available. It was love at first sight. 

 

Mia was the perfect addition to our family. She is the best dog we have ever had. As her trainer says, "she does not have a bad bone in her body".

 

Mia is smart, playful, kind and patient to my daughter. Very often I find myself thanking RLD for having bred the perfect fur friend for her.  

 

The way RLD breed their puppies is more than holistically, it is respectful to the animals and to their future families.

 

Thank you for all you do!!"

​

-Natalia A.

"When I started looking for a puppy in the winter I came across the Rocky Legend Doodle Instagram page and immediately I could tell that they put a lot of care and attention into their dogs and their dogs babies. I was so impressed with all the information about their dogs and the care of their dogs that I knew this was a Breeder that was doing things the right way. I was so impressed.

 

I reached out and I was contacted right away. I feel fortunate that through a few emails and FaceTime that we were able to purchase a puppy from the first litter. We received many updates about how our little girl was doing right up until the time we arrived to take her home.

Rocky Legend Doodles was amazing from the first time we made contact. When we picked up Phoebe we had to make a 9 hour drive with her back to our home. She was amazing!!! She didn’t make a sound the whole drive. She has adjusted to our home better than we could have asked for. Her personality and temperament are perfect for our family. She is absolutely beautiful.

 

I get so many compliments on our daily walks. She is silly and intelligent, calm and affectionate. We couldn’t ask for more in a doodle and we are so happy to have her.

​

Thank you Rocky Legend Doodles for the wonderful addition to our family."
