Our Family-Raised Cockapoos

Meet the New England Dutch Haven Partners!

Some of our Cockapoo puppies enjoying some time at Lydia's parents' lakeside home in NH.

Joe & Lydia grew up in NH and have many family and life-long friends there. We started Dutch Haven in our home on the NH Seacoast, and we have many close ties with clients all over New England. We are so pleased to have ongoing partnerships in the Northeast as we raise Cockapoo puppies together. We meet with our partners regularly and we're all committed to raising puppies to the same high standards of excellence!

Joe & Lydia Groen

Joe and Lydia are committed full-time to raising our dogs and our family with excellence. We have five children: Jack, Matthew, Benjamin, Elizabeth, and Samuel. We love taking road trips and often have dogs along. We are so blessed to have a large extended family and are thrilled that our kids get to spend lots of quality time with grandparents and cousins! Our Cocker Spaniels are great friends with our black Lab Willow and Katie the cat. Our dogs are an essential part of keeping our lives full of fun and laughter. At the end of 2020, we fulfilled a lifelong dream of moving West, and were able to purchase a rural country estate in Oklahoma. Our connections in NH remain very strong and we make frequent trips back to New England with puppies along. Meanwhile, our whole family (including the dogs!) is enjoying the big skies and room to roam!

Robert & Barbie Lapointe

Barbie is Lydia's sister and a full-time mom and homeschooler, while Abraham, Samantha, Marian, Timothy, Pippin, and Henry are full-time kids, walking the dogs down their quiet country road in Barrington, NH, playing in the woods or the frog pond, jumping on the trampoline, catching crickets for the chickens, and swimming at their grandparents' lake house. Barbie and Robert have been very pleased to incorporate their kids in the joys and responsibilities of pet ownership, and their Cocker Spaniels have been happy to be included in this fun and exciting family!

Josh & Nicole Olstad

Josh and Nicole live in Farmington, NH on 5 acres of quiet wooded land with their four daughters Olivia, Danielle, Charlotte, and Clara. With both Josh and Nicole having pets growing up, and Nicole spending her high school years at the Groen house falling in love with their Cocker Spaniels and getting a small taste of puppy life, it was the obvious choice for them to have a Cocker Spaniel as their first pet for their family! The Olstad girls are so excited to help in the process of raising excellent and loving pets for others and take their job of socializing and snuggling pups very seriously. Other than actually playing with the dogs, one of their favorite parts so far has been brainstorming litter themes and future puppy names! ​

My goal in life is to be as good of a person as my dog already thinks I am.
