We don’t breed dogs — we make friends worth a lifetime.

Family-raised Golden Retrievers and Goldendoodles from Stardust Acres in Peyton, Colorado.

We are

Stardust Acres.

We are Lori and Karl, home crafters, specializing in laser engraving, traditional crafts, and more—based in Colorado, who fell in love with the intelligence and companionship of some truly amazing dog breeds. Each year, we raise a couple select litters of large, intelligent, service-quality Goldendoodles and Golden Retrievers.

Breeding isn’t our main profession, but it’s a passion we love sharing with others who appreciate these wonderful dogs as much as we do.
