We are committed to providing the highest quality care for our dogs and clients, in a manner that glorifies God, in an atmosphere that is professional, upbeat, unpredictable and unique in every way.
Reputation is very important to me. As a Christian, I live my life by the principles of the Bible. We are a Chris-centered, client-focused, Doodle-loving company.
There is a passage in the book of Proverbs that reads, “A good name is better to be chosen than great riches”. I operate my business with this motto. For over 20 years we have worked with many families and have developed many wonderful relationships. Many of our clients come from the referrals of previous puppy owners. We have several second, third, fourth,s and even fifth-time repeat puppy owners. I have to warn you, our puppies are addictive. Many people can’t have just one!
As with any business that works with people, issues arise and need to be resolved. Our goal is to handle any concern from a client with fairness and the highest ethical standards.
We are so happy that we connected with Smeraglia for our absolutely gorgeous small teddy bear golden doodle! We attribute her delightful personality, intelligence, and overall behavior to her breeding, and to how she was treated during her early days with the Smeraglia team. From the start of our relationship with the folks at Smeraglia, they have been supportive, helpful, and always available. We appreciate that so much! The option to meet a driver at the Pensacola airport worked superlatively, as we were able to fly down and back home in the same day. Coincidentally, we found out on our walks that there are several families who have Smeraglia goldendoodles in our neighborhood in St. Louis! That really makes us smile.!
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of adopting a puppy from Smeraglia's TeddyBear Goldendoodles, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire process. From the very beginning, the every person on their team were incredibly helpful and communicative. We had to make quite the journey for our puppy so the professionalism was appreciated. As was the knowledge about the breed and our puppies temperament. It almost seemed too good to be true.
It’s clear that the Smergilia cares deeply about their dogs, ensuring that they are well-socialized and healthy. My puppy arrived with all the necessary health checks, vaccinations, and even a starter kit to help with the transition to a new home. They even provided us with a training leash and collar for the long drive home.
Overall, I would highly recommend Smeraglia's TeddyBear Goldendoodles to anyone looking for a well-bred, healthy, and happy puppy. The entire experience was positive, and my new puppy has been a perfect addition to the family!
The entire Smeraglia experience has been AMAZING! From the very first phone call with McKenzie and Natalie until the Gotcha Day experience, we have felt so well taken care of! They answered every question and were so patient with me as I made multiple calls with questions! Emma and Mackennah were so great with our Gotcha Day instruction and warm welcome! I can’t say enough good things! Love! Love! Love!
We are beyond thrilled to welcome our newest family member, Sully! From start to finish, the entire experience was exceptional. Haley made the entire process seamless—professional, kind, and so communicative every step of the way. We instantly felt confident and supported.
A huge thank you to Wendy and Toby, Sully’s amazing trainers! Their hard work, love, and dedication truly shine through. Sully came home confident, well-adjusted, and already full of good manners—it’s clear he was in the best hands.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking to add a furry companion to your family, look no further. This team is the absolute best!
We love our Smeraglia puppy so much that we came back and got a second. The temperaments of their dogs are amazing, sweet, and snuggly. We also did 6 weeks of training. We had such a special pick up experience and already love our new family member
If you cannot tell from the smile on my face, I will tell you—this day is one of the happiest of my life!!! Dreams really do come true—-especially when Smeraglia is involved!!!
The care they gave to my Belle is over the top! They are expert in their knowledge and they care so much about you AND your new four-legged family member that they are HONEST about everything to match you with your perfect best friend! After numerous phone calls and videos to inform and set me at ease, I began to wonder if this was all too good to be true! Add to that, driving into the estate, which looks like a winter wonderland, it really seemed like, am I going to be let down? But!!! Not for a single moment!!! My Belle feels like a sheepskin rug! She smells heavenly and Smeraglia had her fluffed as if she were ready for a magazine shoot! The trainer and Angie and other folks here feel like family and I want them to come to my home for Christmas cookies! Their puppy box is so generous! If you are hesitating about adding a Smeraglia pup to your home, stop!!! Get busy with confidence AND excitement about moving forward with making your dreams come true in the competent and fun and caring hands of Smeraglia!!
Best experience ever! We cannot thank everyone here enough. Getting our puppy has been so special and there is no other breeder in the same ballpark as Smeraglia. They are just that good. Top Notch. 10 stars
UPDATE!! Our puppy Rustyn is as good as it gets. So sweet and affectionate and so goofy and funny! He keeps us laughing!
“If I could give 10 stars it would not be enough to share the amazing experience I have had with my new puppy. Teddy bear golden doodles (Smeraglia’s enterprises). From beginning to end there has not yet been one thing that was a flag or made me feel as if I wasn’t the only
Client they have. I want to start with the office Sabrina and Sara and everyone there, I must’ve called 50 times and each time I was treated with respect and got all the attention and answered questions that I needed without one sigh. They were so thorough. I want to thank Carol for searching for my puppy for me and for taking such an interest as did everyone… in my receiving the exact puppy that was meant for me. Joy my puppies trainer what an amazing human being & trainer."
"I have been following Smeraglia’s for years now and after all of my research, I knew they were the breeder for us! We are so confident in our decision, we are driving from Michigan to pick up our new Goldendoodle baby! Everyone has been so nice and accommodating. Sara especially is an absolute sweetheart to deal with. They treat the puppies all as their own and only breed the best! When we get another puppy, they too will be a Smeraglia baby!!!"
Good morning Sherri, oops my message didn’t go through just the pictures but I wanted to share with you something special that is a testimony to what you do. We lost Kenai a year ago and even though he wasn’t trained to be a therapy dog, he was a therapy dog to everyone who met him. Our pet sitter even said she always felt like he took care of her, not the other way around. In April, we had our Gotcha Day with Ollie and we loved meeting you, Natalie, Angie and Patti-amazing day. We just love Ollie with all our hearts! I wanted to share something with you, last Saturday we had a big party for my birthday. There was a lot of people and a DJ playing music and people danced all night. Ollie was amazing to everyone!!! A neighbor brought her 2 year old son and Ollie and him fell in love instantly. Ollie would do zoomies all around the little boy making him just belly laugh for hours but when Ollie would get close to the little boy, he would immediately lay down. He was so instinctively gentle and loving with this little boy. Everyone was amazed at Ollie and his behavior and I told everyone it was you and how you breed these puppies. I’m planning on training Ollie to be a therapy dog to take to Children’s Hospital, nursing homes and the Reading with Rover program and I truly believe because of you and the Lords work through you that he will be perfect at this. I just really wanted to share this with you as a testimony to what you do and how very special your puppies really are. We are beyond grateful to you for all that you do. God Bless You!!!
"I can’t recommend Smeraglia enough. From day one they were answering my questions and always offering support. Each step of the process was efficient and organized. The week leading up to my puppy pick up I had multiple people (transportation, trainer, office staff, etc) making sure I had everything I needed and offering videos and answers to commonly asked questions. Our puppy is a dream, matches her temperament assessment completely, and our trainer, Kristen did a great job with her for two weeks. We are so thankful and can’t wait to tell everyone where we got her!"
"Just met our 7 week old baby girl...we'll be back in 3 weeks to bring her home. It was a great visit!"
"We have 3 doodles from Smeraglia now. We couldn’t be happier with the quality of the puppies. Their temperament and health are right on point. Smeraglia’s customer service is top notch. They are always available and very helpful when needed. We won’t ever hesitate getting our puppies from this breeder. Thank you Smeraglia for helping to fill our home with with so much love!"
