Please friend me for thoughts on Breeders within a 1 day drive of the DC area

Hi prospective doodle parent here!

After extensive discussion with my husband, we're looking to adopt a goldendoodle or labordoodle puppy. I've read the what to look for in a breeder article (link), amongst many others and am hoping that people will friend me and provide some feedback on the breeders listed below. We're interested in a medium (40-60lbs) f1b with a curlier coat (my husband has mild allergies). I'd like the breeder to be within driving distance of DC (MD, VA, PA, NC, OH) so we can visit and so that I don't have to ship (I'm a nervous flyer myself so I really don't want to do that to a new puppy)) and that has litters that will be ready to go home by end of the year (ideally right NOW because I'm so excited after a 5 month decision making process). 

Countryside Doodles (I know our desired size is at the very top of what they typically breed)

Carriage House Cockapoos and Goldendoodles

Yesteryearacres

Windsor Creek

I also love the Moss Creek website, but given that they're in Florida I've temporarily ruled them out 

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

I just sent you a friend request with some breeder information.

Hi, I dont have time right now to answer you, but certainly can respond sometime in the next few days about a few of the mentioned breeders you have posted  

I know, all of us here can send you in the right direction. So glad there are people like you that do their research!!!!

The OP asked people to "friend" her to recommend breeders because breeder recommendations are NOT permitted here in the open forum.

So great that you're researching! You may like to check out the Early Spay Neuter discussion we had recently. There are so me good reasons to ask for delay. Best of luck.
