"Harley was pretty much potty trained and super well-socialized from the start. She’s incredibly loving and a pleasure to have around... Can’t say enough how grateful we are!"

We have only had Harley (Lizzie) for a few months but we already love her more than anything! Every day we are so impressed by her charm, quirk, and intellect. She's incredibly loving and a pleasure to have around. She travels well and she's been very easy to train. She even learned to use the treadmill in just a few sessions. We were so lucky to find RWD—it was awesome to get to witness Harley's first eight weeks with Hillarie on her social media. You can see for yourself how much care and energy goes into these puppies' early development and it really makes a difference in their transition home. Harley was pretty much potty trained and super well-socialized from the start. We brought her home to live with three senior cats, which they do harmoniously now—amazing for a young puppy! Can't say enough how grateful we are for Harley. Thanks, RWD!

"The puppies were socialized early and with kids, which was huge for us. Our Garfield/Grady dog has a wonderful temperament and is so super smart... the trainer we’ve been using has already said he might be a great therapy dog."

We got our pup from RW&D in February 2021, from the litter born December 2020. We loved getting our dog from Hillarie and her family, as we know how much he was loved and cared for before we got to take him home. The updates we saw regularly on Facebook were a treat to feel part of the process early on. The puppies were socialized early and with kids, which was huge for us. Hillarie gave so many helpful tips and was a wonderful resource even after we took our dog home, as well as created a little community of RW&D families. Our Garfield/Grady dog has a wonderful temperament and is so super smart. Like a typical lab, he always needs to be with his people, often laying on the floor wherever we are. He's a good cuddler, and the trainer we've been using has already said he might be a great therapy dog. When we add another dog to the mix, it'll be with White and Doodle!

"RW&D is very conscientious, making sure the puppies receive the best care at each step. They provide frequent and detailed communication... If you want a double doodle, I highly recommend them."

The breeder RW&D is very conscientious, making sure the puppies receive the best care at each step of their development. From the birthing day through delivery to their forever homes, they have a hands-on approach. RW&D makes sure the puppies are cleaned and warm on their arrival into this world, that they receive early and appropriate socialization with humans of all ages, and that they are weaned at the appropriate time. This breeder also provides frequent and detailed communication with prospective new homes, utilizing Facebook Live as a tool to document growth and development of the litter. If you are interested in a double doodle, I highly recommend you contact Hillary at Red White & Doodle.

"We got to watch this litter being born on video and followed their early firsts. RWD gave us certainty and made the process much easier. Just the right mix of professionalism and love!"

After a recommendation from another family with young kids, we followed RWD for close to 2 years before adopting our Max as first-time dog owners. We wanted to know as much as possible about our puppy before bringing him into our family, not just breed but parental history, temperament, etc. These are family dogs raised by animal lovers every step of the way, and they have the puppies' and families' long-term best interests at heart to make the right match—just the right mix of professionalism and love. We got to watch this litter being born on video and followed their early firsts before meeting them. Tons of support and guidance, and a great community. Would definitely recommend—raising a puppy is a ton of work, but RWD gave us a degree of certainty and made the process much easier!

"Our Stella is from their very first litter... We were truly hooked, and I feel like this is a very unique experience in dog ownership. I have never had such an affectionate, loving dog. She truly doesn’t shed at all!"

When we got our dog from Red White and Doodle, we got a best friend. I never knew a dog could be so loving and truly a best friend. Our Stella is from their very first litter. We weren't even really looking for a dog, and we've always had labs. Hillarie and her family were friends of ours since our kids were in preschool together, and we just knew we wanted to be a part of their dog's first litter. From watching the birth of our dog livestreamed on Facebook to the multiple visits and daily videos, we were truly hooked, and I feel like this is a very unique experience in dog ownership. It is hard to watch the litters that followed ours and not get another dog. Our Stella loves us and our kids so much. She literally follows us everywhere, and we are pretty sure she thinks she is a person. I have never had such an affectionate, loving dog. She truly doesn't shed at all! She and I run about 3 miles together a few times a week. Her agility skills are off the charts. She is a great family dog and is always up for an adventure. We couldn't be happier with Stella and have to hold ourselves back from getting another Red White and Doodle dog every time there is another litter!

"She truly cares about her dogs and is knowledgeable about all things doodle. Our puppy is super smart, loving, great temperament, and all around such a joy. A++!"

My experience with RWD and Hillarie has been nothing short of amazing. She truly cares about her dogs and is knowledgeable about all things doodle. She is very responsive and made the process from beginning to end seamless. Her puppies are well taken care of by the time they go to their forever homes. It was important to me that our puppy would be socialized with kids and other dogs and had a head start with basic training.

We got our doodle in September from her last litter, and she is just precious. She's super smart, loving, great temperament, and all around such a joy. I would not hesitate to get another dog from Hillarie! A++. Thank you for breeding such quality dogs!

*"Everything was as transparent as it could be... The best part was the in-person puppy visit! Thumbs up and 10 stars to this place—highly recommended!"*

We were so lucky to find a breeder so close to us, and Red White and Doodle was as good a breeder as it gets! From the very beginning, to posting ultrasound pics, to the actual birthing videos, to daily videos of the pups playing, everything was as transparent as it could be.

Hillary is knowledgeable and has great resources to offer to first-time puppy parents.

The best part of the whole process was the in-person puppy visit! We wanted to take all of them home! They also do health screening for genetic markers, which is definitely a plus.

Thumbs up and 10 stars to this place! Highly recommended!

"They were so easy to work with and allowed us to follow the journey daily. If we’re ready for another puppy, we’ll definitely work with them again!"

We are so grateful to Red White and Doodle for our beautiful Honey. They were so easy to work with and allowed us to follow daily on the journey until we got our puppy home. If and when we are ready for another puppy, we will definitely work with them again.

"Hilary and Warren are there for their clients every step of the way. Puppies are raised as their own!"


My Georgie is 5 months old, and we are so happy to have him as part of the family! Hilary and Warren are there for their clients every step of the way, quick to respond to questions for new puppy parents. Puppies are raised as their own!

"The sweetest puppies ever! Very trainable! Hillarie builds a real community of puppy lovers and shares incredible tips for raising happy dogs."

The sweetest puppies ever! Very trainable! This family-owned business is very personable and flexible, even works hard to keep in touch with the families and the dogs to build a real community of puppy lovers. And if you choose not to get a puppy from Red White and Doodle, it's still fun to watch the videos and follow along with a community. She gives lots of incredible ideas and suggestions for raising healthy, happy, well-adjusted dogs.

"Meribel is the sweetest, smartest, most loving dog—and she literally doesn’t shed. We’d never get a dog from another breeder. Hillarie’s early socialization made all the difference!"

Our doodle from Red White & Doodle has been an absolute dream—without a doubt the best dog we've ever had. We've always been lab people because we love their personalities and natural proclivities toward hiking, swimming, fetching, and loving on their families, but my husband was really against getting a shedding dog again, so a doodle was the perfect compromise. I can honestly say that we'd never own another breed, or get a dog from another breeder, again. Meribel is the sweetest, smartest, most loving dog, and she literally doesn't shed—like, I could brush her for 20 minutes and not a hair would be on the brush. She loves kids, loves to hike, fetch, and swim, and is super attentive and easy to train. She is the healthiest dog we've ever owned (knock on wood!!!). At a year and a half old, she has only been to the vet for vaccinations. We couldn't love her more.

As for a breeder, we couldn't ask for anything more than Hillarie and her family. We loved that we got to watch the puppies' birth and literally see them every day from birth to pickup on Hillarie's daily FB live broadcasts. The most important thing in choosing a puppy is a good personality match, and being able to see the pups in action with their siblings and humans made our decision so easy. Hillarie was super helpful with that too—she truly knew the pups and recommended the one that was the perfect fit.

I also loved that the puppies were raised in the home and that Hillarie's kids and their friends were highly involved, handling the pups daily. With two kids and friends coming over often, it was critical for me that my dog be kid-friendly, and I think that early socialization really helped. Also, Hillarie's home is in a San Jose neighborhood just like mine, so our puppy was exposed to the same sounds that she would be here—she's never been scared of garbage trucks or lawn mowers or construction noises nearby because of her early experiences.

I've recommended Red White & Doodle to so many people (we get stopped on the street all the time because our pup is so darn cute!), and one of my friends got a pup from the very next litter and adores him. I feel so grateful to RW&D for our amazing furry family member.

"Hillarie is wonderful, caring, and responsible. Our Cosmos is super smart, loving, and already fully potty trained—we couldn’t be happier!"

We love Red White and Doodle. Hillarie and her family are wonderful, caring, and responsible doodle breeders. Earlier this year, we lost our beloved doodle Teddy, who was barely 3 years old. The breeder we got him from could care less when we explained what had happened to him, so we knew the difference between a good breeder vs. one that just wants your money.

Through my research, I came upon RWD, and Hillarie responded very quickly. She answered all my questions and made us feel at ease about the process. We also got to meet the mom and grandma before putting our deposit for a puppy. Hillarie is very active on social media, and she posts daily updates on Facebook and Instagram so you can watch them grow and be a part of the journey. We find ourselves looking forward to her daily video updates and seeing the puppies go through their milestones.

The time came to pick our puppy, and though we were not at the top of the list, fate would have it that we got the puppy we were meant to have—just like Hillarie said!

Our little Cosmos is 4 months old this Friday. He's super smart, loving, and already fully potty trained. We have had him interact with young kids, and he is such a gentle love bug with them! We couldn't be happier with our puppy, and if anyone is looking for a new addition for their family, we highly recommend Red White and Doodle.
