About Us and Northwoods Irish Doodles

Thanks for entering our website to learn more about us!  When Eme (Emmy) entered our lives as a puppy, we did not have intentions to breed her.  As she grew others noticed her wonderful disposition and asked if we would consider breeding her.  A little nervous, because Eme’s health comes first, we talked to our vet and to many who had bred before and decided to give it a try.  It was such a wonderful experience and privilege to be the first humans that the puppies loved and with whom they played.  They trusted us and we loved them so much!  It was very hard to see them leave our home but, WOW, was it also amazing to see the excitement and love their new families had for them! We still keep in contact with many of the owners of our pups.  It’s so fun! You can check out some of the owners thoughts under the “reviews” tab.

My husband and I raised our family in the rural area that we still live in. We have three adult children who live across the U.S. and we are about to become grandparents!  (Yes we are a lot excited!)  Individually and as a couple, we love being outdoors and active.  We both ride motorcycle; love to bicycle, hike, standup paddleboard and in the winter we love to cross-country ski.  Believe it or not, Eme hikes, paddleboards, canoes, swims, and skis with us!  We all love it!  

We want you to know that we are not a large breeder.  It’s just our sweet Eme, and us so every puppy gets oodles and oodles of attention and care.  (Check out our ENS practice information on the home page.) Our rural neighborhood is perfect for raising pups.  Our yard provides lots of fun playtime and there are many nearby forest trails for us to walk them on with Eme. 

As your breeder, we are here to answer your questions and support you in the best way possible.  That means if you have a question you can call or text now or years later when you have a grown pup.  Even if you don’t purchase a pup from us but have questions about the breed we are here to help. Our heart’s desire is that new owners understand the breed and are confident that it will be a great fit.  We want ours and other pups to be adopted into homes that are prepared and excited to love them with their whole hearts! Dogs can be such a blessing to a home and bring much joy with the right support, love and intentional care.  If we can help with that, we’d love to! 

We hope this helps you get a feel for whom we are and the type of interaction you can expect from us.  As questions come up about us, our practices, or adopting one of our pups, we welcome you to reach out to us.  It’s our pleasure to get to know you too!

Here’s a few puppy puns just for fun .  They are PAWsome!

- Anything is paw-sible when you have a dog.

- The dog is so popular that the pup-arazzi took its photo.

- That dog is so beautiful. She should be on the cover of Vanity Fur.

-I love walking my neighbor’s dog. It’s the leashed I can do.  

We hope you’ve enjoyed yourself and even laughed a little.
