I can't express enough how wonderful our experience with Alva's Darling Doodles has been. Alva is an absolute delight to work with. We first crossed paths with Alva four years ago when Bentley became a part of our family, and her commitment to her pups and their well-being has never wavered. As first-time dog owners, Alva patiently answered all our questions and guided us through the process. Alva still reaches out to check on Bentley. 

Our journey with Alva has been nothing short of exceptional.  What truly sets Alva apart is her unwavering commitment to quality over quantity. It's evident from the very beginning that her top priority is ensuring each puppy finds the perfect home. 

We adopted Bentley, and he has been an absolute joy since day one. Healthy, happy, and full of life, he’s a testament to Alva's expertise and care. Alva's pups are raised in a loving environment, and it shows in their temperament and well-being.

If you're in search of a responsible breeder who goes above and beyond to ensure the happiness and well-being of their dogs, Alva's Darling Doodles is the place to go. I wholeheartedly recommend Alva's darling doodles and am grateful for the treasured addition she gave our family. 

Thank you, Alva, for your unwavering dedication to the well-being of these wonderful dogs.

We got Cameron from Alva and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! Alva was professional and honest throughout the entire process. She gives her pups the utmost care and it is apparent in their demeanor. Cameron was well loved and cared for before we adopted him, he is healthy and his behavior is perfect! Cameron is a wonderful addition to our family, we love him so much!

Alva is wonderful to work with.  We found our sweet Bailey when a friend recommended Alva and her guardian program to us, and we are so grateful! You can tell that these pups receive so much love from day one. I can't say enough good things about our sweet puppy.

Bailey is amazing! We receive so many compliments about how well behaved she is. She has been a dream to train and she does so well with our 3 kids! We waited a long time for the right dog for our family and Bailey is the perfect fit! Alva truly cares about her Darling Doodles and the family's that adopt them! She is there for any questions along the way and we truly have loved our experience!

Alva is a very caring breeder and true to her word, she has remained not only available, but genuinely interested in how our pup (now 4 years old) has been doing.  I will always be grateful for all the helpful advice from Alva Storc especially in his early puppy days.  We’ve had a great relationship with Alva over the years and it’s been an ongoing pleasure.  Even after 4 years, Alva is available.  She cares for all of her pups. Our “Obie” (short for Obsidian) has grown into a super young dog now.  He is a happy, healthy, handsome, mini-sheepadoodle, with a gorgeous plume of a tail.  He’s definitely been a light in our lives, thanks to Alva.

I have been around Alva and her puppies for many years. I have watched her care for each and every pup with love and affection ❤️ she’s always quick to answer questions and give advice. She goes above and beyond as a dog breeder. This is my Jada and I am so in love with her! She is with me through thick and thin… and never leaves my side! She is so full of love and character. She’s highly intelligent and very well behaved! ❤️🥰

We just brought our Franco home from Alva's Darling Doodles! Alva spent so much time with us, educating and advising us on her fabulous puppies! We got to visit with the parents on site and meet all the pups. It was such a hard decision to just pick one! They were all very well socialized and loved by Alva! We couldn't be happier with our healthy loving new family member! Thank you Alva!

Alva is awesome!  We recently got our Gretle from Her, and she went above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need for her. It’s apparent from the first time you talk with her that she cares so much for her pups and that they are well taken care of!  Would recommend 10/10

Our family recently adopted Panda from Alva and she’s been the absolute perfect fit for our family. Alva has been nothing but kind, caring, and shows so much compassion for her animals. She’s very knowledgeable and able to answer any questions I might have had. She raises some truly amazing pups. Panda is the missing puzzle piece to our family. I have 3 young children and Panda claimed them as her own the moment she saw them and has been nothing but wonderful since. We have not had any issues with her at all. Truly a wonderful pup. If you’re looking for a pup 10/10 recommend adopting from Alva’s Darling Doodles 🩷

Meet M 

Alva was there through it all, answering questions, offering suggestions, guidance and love - she truly cares about her pups and their families.

There is so much more to this story that is actually pretty wild  - and every bit of this story was the universe pointing us in the right direction of having this little guy as a beloved part of our family. 

Every day I look at this furry face and say thank you to God for bringing him into our lives because of all the joy he brings us. Yes, even on the days he acts like...well...a puppy. And when he does, Alva is there to offer guidance to help us take the best care of him possible! 

Thank you Alva Storc for our beloved M.

Alva was so compassionate and friendly and we are so happy with our new addition to the family! Tippy (formerly Adam) has been everyone's favorite cuddle bug since coming home with us. We are so impressed with him and his temperament with our other dogs and he is perfect with our 3 kids (ages 8, 6, and 2) I even convinced my besties to adopt his brothers we can have puppy dates!
