The Heart Behind Salt & Light

At Salt & Light Doodle Co., our story is rooted in family, love, and the joy of raising dogs alongside our children here in Oregon’s beautiful Willamette Valley. What began as a love for our two Goldendoodles, Ember and Zen, has grown into a passion for sharing their wonderful qualities with other families.

We believe that raising puppies is more than a responsibility — it’s a calling. From the very first days of life, our puppies are nurtured in the middle of our home, surrounded by the laughter (and noise!) of our kids, the rhythms of daily life, and plenty of cuddles. This early exposure helps them grow into confident, adaptable companions who are ready to thrive in their forever families.

Our commitment is simple: healthy, well-socialized puppies raised with care, intention, and love. With health testing through Embark, intentional socialization practices, and hands-on family involvement every single day, we give each puppy the very best start in life.

Salt & Light is more than just our name — it reflects the values that guide everything we do. We strive to bring warmth, joy, and integrity into every step of the process, from our first hello with families to the moment a puppy goes home.
