Training your pup is KEY!! Many people will pay thousands of dollars for a training program outside of their home, or for a personal dog trainer to come to them. The problem with this is, eventually both the owner and the dog forget the training and bad habits come back. We have found Baxter & Bella, an incredible at-home training program with all the resources you need to teach you how to train your own pup! This LIFETIME membership also includes one-on-one live sessions with a coach when you need additional help!

Our Beginning

Small town, family-raised Golden doodles

My name is Kaleigh and I am the breeder of Gilson Doodles! I live in a small town in the south east corner of Utah with lots of open space and outdoor fun. We live very close to Moab where you’ll see the iconic and stunning red rock and arches landscapes. I am a mom of 5 beautiful kids and 3 sweet goldendoodles!

I have always loved Golden Retreivers. Their beautiful coats, blocky heads & sweet dispositions. As we searched for our first family dog, we found Roxy and learned she had a bit of poodle in her. We were naive, didn’t know anything about coat traits and genetics and expected her to shed less because of it. Well, we were wrong. She has the coat of a Golden, therefore she will shed like a Golden! I fell in love with her sweet, loving personality, but I didn’t realize how difficult it is to have dog hair all over the house! I have always wanted to breed and raise puppies, but I really wanted to dial in on the attributes I’d want in a family dog…

low to non-shedding
hypoallergenic
affectionate
good with kids
active but can also chill
friendly
smart & easy to train

Thus, creating the perfect family dog…the DOODLE.

Over the years I have spent a lot of time learning and researching dog genetics including coat traits/colors, health, temperaments and how to properly socialize puppies to start them off strong. Raising well-mannered, affectionate & beautiful pups is my passion and joy! My goal is to provide families with the BEST companion that brings true JOY into the home!

Our mission is to provide families with beautiful, quality, family-friendly pets! Here's what some of our satisified doodle familes say!

I would 100 percent recommend this breed of dog to a family, older person, a person with disabilities, anxiety, depression, or someone who needs a companion. He’s not a hunting, or work dog. He’s a family dog who will enrich your life by loving you completely. Gilson Goldendoodles are well taken care of, and an excellent place to invest in one of these beauties.

We love our Rory roo! She is the perfect family dog. Rory loves to run, jump on the tramp, play with the kiddos, and snuggle with her mommy. We can’t say enough good things about her temperament and personality. She is from Roxy’s first litter and is about 40ish pounds.

I’ve been around Roxy and Dewey (one of Roxy’s pups) extensively...they are both the MOST loving and obedient family dogs! My family has since adopted a Goldendoodle as we fell in love with the breed!

We have a 2 year old boy from Roxy’s first litter. His name is Sammy. We absolutely LOVE him!! My wife and I adopted him about a year ago and could not imagine our lives without him. We brought him into a home with another dog, they have gotten along very well. Sammy has convinced my wife and I that we will always have goldendoodles in our home. We are always looking for our next fur baby
