Naomi Nicholson

Naomi grew up in the North of England with Great Danes and Springer Spaniels. After leaving school and bringing up her family she worked in accounts for many years before setting up her own daycare business. Both she and her husband are huge dog lovers but unfortunately, his allergies and her job meant many breeds weren't suitable. There the search began, and the Doodle was discovered.

Being a true Yorkshire girl, Naomi and her husband finally welcomed an F1b Yorkiepoo called Cookie into their lives in the late Summer of 2020.
