The hearts and hands behind Little Fur Friends — raising loving doodles from our small farm in Wharton, Texas since 2008.
Valerie & Tracy started Little Fur Friends in 2008, originally raising small poodle mixes and eventually evolving into the doodles we know and love today. Our first goldendoodle litter was in 2015, and we were hooked! As the saying goes, the rest is history.
We've both had dogs our whole lives and couldn't imagine life without them. They are family members and the most loyal "little fur friends" you can find.
We live in Wharton on 6 acres that we affectionately call our little farm. We have a variety of poultry and miniature livestock animals, a dog grooming business here at home, and our beloved dogs and puppies that keep us busy!
We're so excited to share them with you, and hope to help you find your own little fur friend!
The Goldendoodle Association of North America (GANA) is a non-profit breed club dedicated to promoting responsible breeding, protecting the Goldendoodle breed, and helping families find ethical breeders. Members have a direct voice in shaping policies that affect the health and future of the breed.
Gold Level is the highest tier of GANA membership. It requires breeders to complete the most comprehensive health testing available — OFA hips, elbows, eyes, cardiac, and patellas on every parent dog. Only breeders who meet these rigorous standards earn the Gold Level distinction.
Choosing a GANA Gold Level breeder means your puppy comes from health-tested parents, raised under a strict Code of Ethics. GANA verifies each member's credentials and issues a custom logo with an expiration date, so families can confirm legitimacy and choose with confidence.
We are proud to be a GANA Gold Level Member. We encourage every family to verify our membership and explore what GANA membership means for you and your future puppy.
GoodDog is the nation's leading platform for connecting families with ethical, verified breeders. They personally review every breeder's practices, facilities, and health standards before granting verified status.
Becoming a GoodDog Verified Breeder means passing a thorough review of our breeding program, health testing protocols, and puppy-raising practices. Only breeders who meet their strict criteria earn the verified badge.
Choosing a GoodDog Verified Breeder means your puppy comes from a program that has been independently reviewed for ethics and quality. You can read reviews, see photos, and pay securely — all with GoodDog's support.
