Raised with purpose and care
We're Eli and Lori, family-run breeders in Millersburg, OH. Every puppy is raised with daily care and family involvement.
Our story
We’re a family of five living on a peaceful 70-acre beef farm nestled in the beautiful rolling hills of Holmes County, Ohio. Our journey began in 2019 when we started raising Labradoodles, and in 2023, we added French Bulldogs to our family. Today we raise Miniature Aussiedoodles, Miniature Goldendoodles and French Bulldogs.
Life on the farm gives our puppies room to play, grow, and thrive surrounded by nature and family. We take great pride in raising happy, healthy puppies and truly enjoy meeting the families who welcome them into their homes. Our mission is simple — to raise precious companions who bring joy, love, and lasting memories for a lifetime.
As proud members of the Responsible Dog Breeder Network, we’re committed to raising our puppies with care, purpose, and integrity. Every puppy from our program is:
• Health-Checked: receiving regular veterinary care to ensure they start life healthy and strong.
• From DNA-Tested Parents: carefully selected and tested to reduce hereditary conditions.
• Nurtured with Safety and Care: raised in a clean, loving home environment from birth.
• Socialized and Foundation Trained: gently introduced to crate training, leash training, and everyday experiences so they’re ready for family life.
• Backed by Life-Long Support: our relationship doesn’t end at adoption — we’re here for you throughout your dog’s life.
Every puppy we raise represents our family’s values — honesty, compassion, and a deep love for animals. We hope that through our dogs, you’ll experience the same joy we do every day. After all, we understand exactly why they call a dog man’s best friend!
Why we do this
Our goal with every litter is the same: happy, healthy puppies and families who are genuinely ready for a lifelong companion.
"There is nothing quite like the steady companionship of a good dog by your side."
We do the hard work — so they're ready
Every litter follows the same structured path before going home.
Whelped in a clean, climate-controlled whelping area and monitored closely.
Daily handling and developmentally appropriate exposure — sounds, surfaces, people — building a confident, calm adult.
Weaning is complete, and puppies are starting to learn to go potty outside.
Well-adjusted, confident, and vet-cleared — ready to give unconditional love and steadfast comfort.
A small, home-centered program in Millersburg, OH
Located near Millersburg, OH, Precious Paws Companions is family-run, where every puppy is raised inside the home — not in a kennel. Our property is where our dogs live, play, and grow alongside our family, giving them a strong foundation of comfort and real-life experiences from day one.
We proudly welcome families near and far. Because our program is intentionally small, visits and placements are scheduled in advance through our waitlist.
Health first — always
Every breed we raise comes with its own known health considerations, and we take them seriously. We are intentional about our dam and sire pairings, and both parents complete health screening before any litter is planned.
