Friendly Cockapoo Puppies from Ethical Family Breeders serving the Northwest Arkansas Area

Welcome to Dutch Haven!

We are a family breeder with a passion for raising first-class family pets. Our first-generation Cockapoo puppies are raised with our children and are great for families with children. Being held and snuggled from birth, our dogs are convinced of their lifelong career path as lapdogs. Intentionally instilled with confidence, they're always up for an adventure by your side!

We have been raising puppies to a high standard of excellence since 2005, and we're thrilled to offer our pups to local families in Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, and beyond!

All of our breeding dogs are family pets - they live in our home and play with our kids. When puppies arrive, they get lots of love and attention. Visit our page Puppies In 8 Weeks to see how we spend our time with the puppies once they're born. You can see photos of our adult Cockapoos on the All Grown Up page. Thanks for visiting our site! We'd love to hear from you so go ahead and Contact Us!

We are Joe & Lydia Groen...

Joe and Lydia are committed full-time to raising our dogs and our family with excellence. We homeschool our 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 so much time with grandparents and cousins! Our Cocker Spaniels all get along well with our black Labrador Willow and Katie the cat, as well as our flock of free-range chickens. Our dogs are all great with the kids and 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 whole family (including the dogs!) is enjoying the big skies and room to roam!

...and Zack & Laura Shrift

Shrifts and Groens have been family friends for over two decades now! Zack & Laura have lived in Arkansas for much of that time, and Joe & Lydia were excited to be moving closer to them. We knew we'd need a stud dog here in NWA and were thrilled when the opportunity arose to bring proven stud Paddington's younger brother Chester into our breeding lineup. Zack and Laura were happy to add Miniature Poodle Chester to their family, which shortly thereafter grew to include Cocker Spaniel Clover! The trip from our home to theirs in Siloam Springs, AR, is a short one and we are frequent visitors at each others' homes for cookouts and game nights.
