The Miniature Goldendoodletrong>
A miniature goldendoodle is quite an amazing creature that has been bred for its unique yet impressive qualities. Starting with the standard goldendoodle breeding of a standard poodle and golden retriever cross, the intelligence, common sense, friendliness, and trainability of a goldendoodle has made this breed a favorite of many dog owners and dog lovers. On top of this the cross retains a good portion of the non-shedding quality of the poodle, while also keeping part of the attractive look of a golden retriever.
Combining all these traits into one dog seems quite appealing, but we have one more trait to add to this list. A standard goldendoodle will range anywhere from 45-100 pounds, which is quite large for a house pet. To achieve the goldendoodle attributes in a more compact package, a miniature poodle is crossed with a golden retriever.
Our Miniature Goldendoodles
Sandy Ridge miniature goldendoodles are being raised to be the best pets for a dog owner. We have had consistent breeding of the mini golden doodle having a low to non-shedding coat and wonderful temperament suitable for just about any type of family. We have also found our minis to range on average from 30 to 45 pounds at maturity.
There is a little variety in Sandy Ridge minis. We get coat types from slightly wavy to moderately curly and coloring from completely blonde to golden red. We cannot guarantee a puppy will be in the expected size range due to the differing genetic sizes to the parents, but our average generally holds true.
With all health concerns addressed and responsible breeding practices performed, there still is the possibility a health problem could arise. We offer a two year genetic guarantee against any genetic defect or health issue that hopefully will not, but possibly could arise.
If you have any questions, please contact us. A happy customer is our priority.
Reserving a Goldendoodle
Process for getting puppy from Sandy Ridge
Please refer to our more information page to understand our communication emphasis before accepting a deposit. We do not want you to feel uncomfortable with getting a goldendoodle puppy from us, so we want you to ask any questions and feel comfortable with your purchase before you place a deposit. This will help us both when the puppy choosing takes place.
Place a deposit: We take a conditional non-refundable deposit to reserve a mini golden doodle puppy. The conditions that will apply towards a deposit refund are:
--The litter reserved from did not have enough puppies for the list we had on that litter.
--You specified a gender and there was not one available in the litter reserved from.
-In these cases you will be allowed the option to have your deposit refunded or moved to the list on the next available litter.
--We will not refund a deposit due to hair type, color (all our puppies are blonde to golden in color), or size in the litter.
If you reserve a goldendoodle before they are born or before they reach 5 weeks old, you will be put on the list in order the reserves were placed. We are currently only accepting deposits after puppies are born.
We will begin the selection process on the litter between five and six weeks old. At that time we will place individual pictures on our webpage and you will have the choice of picking a puppy from the pictures or coming to visit.
Since we normally have a number of people waiting to pick their puppy, we appreciate as much cooperation as possible in this process. If you are visiting us, we would like to make these arrangements as soon as possible. If you are not able to come visit us in the appropriate time frame, we may require you to pick from the pictures.
The selection process occurs before puppies are ready to go, so you are not able to wait until puppies are ready to go before making your selection.
