Meet Brenda
I've been married to the best guy ever for over 35 years with 4 kids that I adore and I'm new to being a grandmother! I homeschooled my kids and couldn't imagine an empty house, so I got my first Labradoodle and fell madly in love. I just knew that everyone needed one of these amazing dogs and that I needed to bring them to the world! So my next chapter began and I haven't looked back. I love how these dogs bring people together and truly make families complete! The delightful people I meet through this business make my life so full and rich. I am thankful for such a fun and fulfilling way to spend my days.
Fun facts about me:
I only have 1 Labradoodle of my own that lives with us.
I am a Coke Zero junkie.
I love to read, especially historical fiction.
Gardening brings me joy (you will sometimes see pictures taken in my fenced-off garden!) FLOWERS only, nothing practical!
Any convertible is my favorite car.
My husband and I lift weights 3 nights a week.
We were both born here in Winter Haven, Florida. Natives!
My husband Joe is an Optometrist here in town.
I secretly love Scottish Terriers and Greyhounds also.
I adore decorating and pink is the main color in my home!
I am an Enneagram 7 (big surprise)
