Does anyone know a good breeder near Boston?

My wife and I are looking to adopt/buy a doodle.  Does anyone have any advice in the western Mass area/

Kevin, it's kind of hard for anyone to answer this, because our Doodle Kisses Guidelines prohibit anyone giving breeder recommendations here in the main forum.
If you click on "Groups" above, you will see "Owner Recommended Breeders" as well as groups where breeders can advertise puppies for sale. These all have to meet certain criteria. These might all be starting places for you. You can also join a regional group for your area, and ask the members there about their breeders. Not sure if there is a Mass Group, but there are some for your general part of the country.

Hi Kevin, site rules prohibit breeder recommendations from being given except privately. However, please read our info on "What To Look for In a Breeder"--great factors to consider when choosing your breeder. AND at the very end there are some breeder lists (including on our site) to look through to find someone near you. Good luck in your choice!

P.S. since you said adopt/buy a doodle...are you suggesting you might be interested in a rescue doodle? If so, if you scroll down on the main page of DoodleKisses.com you'll see a section in the center column (at the bottom) with doodles in need of adoption. Even if you don't see one you want, check out the sites for both of those doodle rescue organizations and fill out applications there. People with apps submitted will get first dibs before the dogs are listed publically.

Thanks for all the advice everyone.
