Which Breed Should You Choose?
There are so many wonderful dogs out there, and mini golden doodle puppies are just one option to consider. Bringing a dog into your family is a huge decision, and it can be wise to consider several factors before choosing any dog or puppy, including the following:
- Your Lifestyle
Consider how active you are. Some breeds require more exercise and are ideal for active individuals, while others are more sedentary. Think about the size of your living space. Larger breeds generally need more room and outdoor space to move around. Evaluate how much time you can dedicate to your dog. Some breeds are more independent, while others require more attention and companionship. If you have children or other pets, consider breeds known for being family-friendly and sociable.
- Research Breed Characteristics
High-energy breeds like Border Collies or Labrador Retrievers need more exercise, while breeds like Bulldogs or Shih Tzus have lower energy levels. Factor in the full-grown size of the breed. Remember, larger dogs often come with higher costs for food and medical care.
Look into the general temperament of breeds. Some are known for being friendly and outgoing, while others might be more reserved or independent. Consider the grooming requirements. Breeds with long hair may require regular grooming, which can be time-consuming and costly. Research common health issues in breeds. Some breeds are prone to certain genetic health problems, which could affect their lifespan and your budget.
- Seek Professional Advice
It can be smart to discuss your decision with a veterinarian or a professional dog trainer. These experts can provide valuable insights into different breeds and what might be best for your situation. If you have specific needs (such as a hypoallergenic dog or a service animal), these professionals can guide you in the right direction.
Is A Mini Goldendoodle A Good Fit?
Now let’s dive into the world of goldendoodles, especially mini golden doodles. Goldendoodles are a hybrid breed – a mix of poodle and golden retriever. Goldendoodles, come in a myriad of sizes, and this variance in size is largely due to the size of the Poodle parent, as Poodles are bred in standard, miniature, and toy sizes.
With miniature goldendoodle puppies, this is the result of breeding a mini poodle with a golden retriever. We also offer medium Goldendoodles and micro goldendoodles (also known as petite or toy Goldendoodles. For medium dogs, this is a cross between a golden and a medium poodle, while the micro is a cross between a toy poodle and a golden retriever.
Mini Goldendoodles typically end up weighing between 15 to 30 pounds, which can be an excellent size to consider if you live in an apartment or have a home with a small yard. Larger dogs need more room to run and play, while a mini can handle a smaller space more easily. Of course, if you have a big yard, your mini doodle will love this, as well.
One fun thing about Goldendoodles of any size is that their coat color can vary widely, including shades of cream, gold, apricot, red and sometimes even multi-colored or patterned. If you have your heart set on an apricot mini golden doodle or perhaps a blue merle Goldendoodle for sale, let us know and we will either provide you information about a current puppy or put you on our waiting list for when a puppy fits your inclinations.
As a side note, let’s talk about the Goldendoodle’s amazing coat. If you have a family member that is allergic to dogs and cats, a Goldendoodle can be a good fit because they have a low-shedding coat. No dog is 100% hypoallergenic, but Goldendoodles are about as close as you can get.
Goldendoodles: A Gentle Temperament & A Quick Mind
While every dog is unique, in general, goldendoodles are known for their friendly, sociable temperament so if you are looking for a sweet-tempered, affectionate dog, a goldendoodle can be a great option. They typically get along well with children, other pets and strangers, which makes them excellent family dogs.
Poodles and Golden Retrievers are known to be quite smart, and that trait has been passed on to Goldendoodles, who tend to be highly intelligent and usually easy to train. When it comes to energy level, Goldendoodles are considered moderately energetic and do require regular exercise.
With micro and mini Goldendoodles, however, you can expend quite a bit of energy just playing around indoors, so if you have limited space and limited time for walks and outdoor exercise, a mini goldendoodle probably will be a better match than a full-size or medium doodle.
Keep in mind, that mini golden doodle puppies, just like most puppies, will be quite energetic and their energy level will drop somewhat as they age. Generally, with puppies, they will have quick bursts of energy but also need a good amount of nap time.
How To Care For Your Goldendoodle
Goldendoodles tend to be healthy dogs, but all dogs will need regular veterinary check-ups to ensure optimum health. Daily exercise and a nutritious diet will go a long way toward keeping your sweet pooch in tip-top shape and preventing many ailments. All of our mini goldendoodle puppies are up-to-date on shots, have been dewormed,micro-chipped and checked by our vet for any health issues. We also provide you with a certificate of health, and the parents of all of our puppies have been genetically health tested, as well.
At Breezy Hollow, we feed all of our dogs and puppies Great Lakes pet food. This is a grain-free pet food brand that we’ve trusted for many years. In fact, if you continue to feed your pup Great Lakes food, we will extend our normal 30-day health guarantee up to two years. That is how certain we are that Great Lakes provides the nutrition your Goldendoodle needs.
Training is an important part of owning any dog, and, at Breezy Hollow, we can handle this task for you. We sell untrained and trained mini Goldendoodles for sale. Our trained Goldendoodles for sale do come with a higher price tag, but we cover a lot of ground during training.
Our goal is to always provide you with a healthy, well-socialized puppy with a great temperament, but training takes this to a whole other level. Our trained puppies are potty trained, crate trained, leash trained and even trained to ride properly and feel comfortable in a car. We also stair-train the puppies, which can be challenging for these little guys.
Additionally, our training also includes teaching your puppy basic commands such as sit, stay, lay down, leave it, come here and off. These commands keep your dog safe and prevent nuisance behavior such as jumping on people, etc.
Keep in mind, that while we sell trained and untrained puppies, if you fall in love with an untrained pup, we can train them for you. If you select an untrained pup, we recommend hiring a professional dog trainer as soon as possible to ensure that your new furry friend understands the rules of your house and basic obedience skills.
