OUR SPECIALTY DOWNSIZED GOLDENDOODLES
Petite Goldendoodle Puppies
Most "Miniature Goldendoodle" puppies available these days are produced by breeding a full-sized, purebred Golden Retriever with a Miniature or Toy Poodle. The resulting puppies can technically be called Miniature Goldendoodles. However, it's important to note that these puppies could very easily grow to be large Goldendoodles - equaling the size of their larger parent, the Golden Retriever. We wanted to be able to provide families with a smaller, more compact Goldendoodle that would grow to be within a predictable size range.
When we consulted with a reproductive specialist veterinarian and were advised that this would be easy to achieve if we first produced a downsized breeding female. We bred our female purebred, Golden Retrievers with our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. The offspring are called "Petite Golden Retrievers" being 50% Golden Retriever and 50% Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. The Petite Golden Retriever females are bred with a Miniature or Toy Poodle, for our "Petite Goldendoodle" puppies.
In addition to the downsizing, infusion of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel brings several other very desirable traits to the crossbreeding. We call this the "Cavalier Magic". The puppies will have the Goldendoodle qualities (low shedding coats, high intelligence, great desire to please) AND these special (Cavalier) qualities:
 |
- Cheerful, happy disposition with a people-loving personality;
- Gentler energy level;
- Shorter nose with a wide face, and a blocky head;
- Large, round eyes; and
- Cavalier "trimmings" - longer ears with silky curls and feathery tails.

We breed for Petite Goldendoodles AND XS Petite Goldendoodles - depending on the size of the mother and the sire. Petite Goldendoodles grow to be between 25 and 30 lbs., and the XS Petite Goldendoodles will be 20 lbs. or less when grown.
