Our Story

A Family Farm Built on Love

Yarnelle Fur-Babies is a small, family-run breeding program on a beautiful 10-acre farm in Columbia City, Indiana — with 6 acres of in-ground fencing so our dogs can run and play every single day.

John and Kathy Yarnelle have been raising equine livestock for over 35 years through Yarnelle Farms Equine, LLC. As their family grew — through biological children, adoptions from Guatemala, and an ongoing journey adopting from Haiti — so did their love of raising exceptional dogs and doodles.

All puppies are handled with love daily and socialized with children of all ages (newborn through 16!), other dogs, and cats. Every pup deserves individual attention, care, and affection — and that's exactly what they get.

Seth Yarnelle

We miss our beloved Seth, who left us far too soon at 2.5 years old. His joy and his love for animals lives on in everything we do.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before bringing your new fur-baby home.

Our puppies are family-raised around children from newborn to 16, as well as other dogs and cats, every single day. Only our family handles them for the first 6 weeks to protect against illness. In-person visits begin at 6 weeks after first vaccinations — by appointment only.

We use Purina Puppy Chow Tender & Crunchy. We'll send a bag home with your puppy. If switching foods, transition gradually over 7–10 days to avoid stomach upset.

Transition stress is completely normal. Puppies are leaving their mom, siblings, and everything familiar. Plain white rice or pure pumpkin mixed into food helps firm up their stool. Remember — all dogs need deworming monthly throughout their lives.

The first 8 weeks are critical for behavioral development — puppies learn vital social skills from their mom and littermates. It is also Indiana state law. We're flexible about scheduling once the 8-week milestone is reached.

Puppies' bladders aren't fully developed until 4–6 months, so expect bathroom trips every 1–3 hours. We introduce a separate potty area at 3 weeks. We recommend crate training from day one with a divider. Many families love the "bell method" — easy to find on YouTube.

A goody bag with their favorite toys, food for the first few days, a blanket with mom and siblings' scent, a puppy health chart (vaccines & dewormer records), and a signed copy of the health guarantee.

All dogs shed to some extent, but doodles are known for very minimal shedding. The curlier the coat, the less shedding. F1 doodles work well for mild allergies; F1b and F1bb are better for moderate allergies. We can advise on each puppy's likely coat type around 4 weeks.

A $200–$400 nonrefundable but transferable deposit is accepted via Zelle, CashApp, or Cash. The remaining balance is due in CASH ONLY at pickup. For transported puppies, full payment is required 2–3 business days before departure via CashApp or Zelle. Contact Brooke at (260) 443-9035.

Yes! All visits are by appointment only, limited to 30 minutes. Puppies must be at least 6 weeks old. Please submit a completed application before your visit. We do not allow visits with multiple litters — choose 2–3 puppies to visit. Out-of-state families are welcome to FaceTime with us!

Puppies are not microchipped — we leave that to you and your vet. Most doodles can be registered through the Continental Kennel Club (CKC). All sires and dams are genetic health tested — documentation available on request.

Faith & Family

Got Jesus?

I know what you are thinking… this has nothing to do with our page. The truth is, it has everything to do with not only our page, but the care that is provided to each of our puppies. We are a very close-knit family raised on our family farm in Indiana. We were all blessed to be able to grow up in a small Lutheran church & school. We give all the thanks to the Lord above!

Please enjoy some of our favorite Bible verses.

John 3:16

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

Jeremiah 29:11

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

1 Corinthians 13:13

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."

Psalm 23:4

"Even though I walk through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me."
