Looking for a dog that fits real life, not a fantasy? We head out to Shiloh Farms in Union to meet seven Doodle puppies raised with purpose: crate trained, noise desensitized, travel practiced, and already sleeping through the night. Crystal Bonati opens her “Place of Peace” to walk us through how thoughtful breeding, early socialization, and steady routines shape confident family dogs.

We break down the alphabet soup—F1, F1B, double doodle, multi-gen—so you can understand parentage, likely coat traits, and size expectations. Then we go pup by pup: from Sabo’s striking phantom markings to Burrow’s teddy-bear charm, Mia’s fearless curiosity, Gabby’s gentle calm, Caitlin’s sweet chill, Petey’s cuddly loyalty, and Boomer’s laid-back independence. Crystal explains why she invites families to visit multiple times, bring a worn shirt for scent, and choose the dog whose temperament fits their life. The process turns impulse into insight and helps ensure a bond that lasts.

We also explore real-world needs: how crate training makes workdays manageable, how noise desensitization helps during fireworks and grooming, and why car trips now prevent anxiety later. For empty nesters and first-time owners alike, an older, well-prepped litter can be a gift—less chaos, more connection. Crystal shares how her faith centers the farm’s mission to “train them up” and send them out, plus moving stories of second dogs easing grief and becoming daily companions.

Curious which personality fits your home? Listen, then come meet the pups at Shiloh Farms in Union and see the difference a calm start makes. Call Crystal at 513-885-0656 to schedule a puppy visit!
