I recently purchased a f1b doodle from Left a and let me tell you, I have never been more humble and envious of the LOVE that flows from that farm. I highly recommend that everyone experience the or a alone. AWESOME! Left a has the biggest heart I have ever encountered. The puppy is fantastic!

I can see why on the surface someone may think Have A Heart Rescue / Golden Barns may be a puppy mill. That is NOT the case. Letta has chosen to use her 10 acre farm and home as a dog rescue. She also successfully breeds healthy poodles and labradoodles. Her choice for the first lead her to also do the second with the knowledge it would help pay for the rescue. All the dogs she rescues are spay or neutered as they go through the intake process. No adopted dog leaves without spay or neutering. Unfortunately even though she has agreements with local vets the cost of sterilization does impact the time between arrival & a vet visit. Letta & her staff are selflessly giving of their time and resources to all of the animals in their care. Have A Heart is an inspected and licensed facility. As to the cleanliness, when I adopted my dog from her in early February 2014, I observed one of the many scheduled clean-ups that happen many times during the day. Letta is required to keep records of the MANY cares she preforms EVERY day for her charges. I drove 2 hours to come here for our new dog & I would encourage anyone to find there next 4 legged family member from this shelter.

I recently purchased a male goldendoodle from Leetia at Have A Heart. We drove 2.5 hrs to purchase this puppy. When we pulled up we were a bit taken a back w/ all the dogs running around & not the nicest looking place. But once you get out & talk w/ Leetia & see how much she loves all those dogs & keeps them fed, bathed, happy & healthy you realize that any money she does get goes right back into those animals. I was afraid going not knowing what I was going to find but we could not be happier. If I had money I would give it all to her so she could do more for herself, she is so unselfish & makes everything to favor the animals. I didn't give it 5 stars only cuz it wasn't the cleanest place but again I would get another dog from her in a heart beat.

I got a puppy from here and could not be happier. It is evident that the woman that has devoted her life and home to the animals she cares for on her 10 acre farm. She was honest and answered every question I had with complete knowledge and has ethical standards unlike a lot of breeders out there. I admit I was uncertain when I pulled into the yard with lots of dogs running around, but all were friendly and well-behaved! I was shocked at what I saw...I think her ingenious way of "training" the dogs to stay on the property, not excessively bark, leave the cats alone, and potty outside, not jump up on guests, and just generally behave (There was not a single "fight" the entire time I was there). I can't recommend highly enough this unconventional shelter! My puppy (I now have 3 dogs...that all get along famously!) is the most mellow, loving, intelligent, and well-behaved I could have ever dreamed. If you are considering getting a puppy, dog, or cat, I suggest you check this out before looking anywhere else. I could easily gone home with another adorable and friendly pet if I caved in to my 8 year old son's pleas as he was surrounded by friendly dogs and loving every minute of it!
