Seven Hills Retrievers

[Discussing Labradoodles & Goldendoodles]

Does anyone have experience with Seven Hills Retrievers in Sutter, IL? Looking for any info as we are looking at them for an F1 Goldendoodle.

Thanks

Hi Brian,

The DK guidelines do not permit breeder reviews or recommendations in the forum. People can leave a message on your page or PM you if you accept a friend request.

Please read What to Look for in a Breeder and use it as a 'checklist" for any breeder you are considering.  It also has links to the Owner recommended Breeders group as well as the various Puppies for sale groups.

Most important is genetic health testing of the breeding dogs. I do not see any mention of that on the website of the breeder you asked about.

As a general rule of thumb, when a breeder has ads on sites like "Puppy Find" and "Next Day Pets", that's a sign of a BYB or puppy mill; not a good thing. Google the phone number and if you get lots of ad listings for puppies, I would move on.

Good luck in your search.

I am also looking at the possibility of getting a pup from Seven Hills Retrievers in Sutter, IL, did any of you end up adopting a pup from them? If so, how was your experience? Thanks

I would also love some information about Seven Hills.  We are looking for a mini golden doodle in the central IL area.  Thanks so much!!

I don't think it's a good idea to buy a puppy from a breeder that requires you to buy a particular dog food from them for their warranty to be valid.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

It's not. It's one of the red flags mentioned in the What To Look for in a Breeder article.
