My name is Anna Zive and I`d like to say I`m so happy you are here! Why am I happy?  Well...because if you have found us you have found a path to a happy, healthy, well adjusted puppy. A puppy that has been respected and listened to since birth. A puppy that feels empowered to go about life with the confidence it needs to be a well rounded adult. Here at Atlantic Coast Doodles we put our heart and soul into our dogs and raise our pups with the utmost care.

    We are a hobby breeder in a small farming/fishing community on Coinjock Bay in Barco NC, situated between the beautiful Outer Banks of NC and Virginia Beach, VA. Our goal is to raise superior quality F1B/F1BB goldendoodles. We believe top quality parents produce top quality puppies.                 

      Our dogs come from exceptional AKC bloodlines. They have wonderful temperaments, are smart, healthy and happy. They have been genetically tested and cleared of over 240 gene mutations. Also they have been tested and cleared through the Orthopedic Foundation of America for healthy hips, elbows, eyes and hearts. We adore our dogs and love them like family. They stay with us in our home and enjoy going out with us exploring or just cuddling on the couch.      

     Our puppies start ENS(early neurological stimulation) at 3 days old.  Five benefits have been observed from canines that experience early ENS; including improved cardiovascular performance (heart rate), stronger heart beats, stronger adrenal glands, more tolerance to stress, and greater resistance to disease. In tests of learning, ENS stimulated pups were more active and exploratory than their non- stimulated littermates. Besides ENS we also use puppy culture which aims to provide puppies with a foundation of experiences and skills that will help them grow into confident, well-adjusted adult dogs. If you would like to know more about what we do on a day to day basis with our pups please check out our puppy training section!     

     If you’re looking for a best friend who loves to spend time outside as well as come home and cuddle on the couch, then an Atlantic Coast Doodle will make you a perfect best friend.
