Three mini doodles

Which Mini Doodle Is Right for You?

We breed three smaller Doodle crosses. Every puppy is different, so think of these as tendencies rather than promises.

Why smaller doodles

Big Dog Personality. Smaller Package.

We chose to focus on smaller Doodles because of how most families actually live. A 20 pound dog rides along on a weekend trip, fits in an apartment or a smaller yard, is easier to lift into the car at the vet, and is simpler to manage when a child is holding the leash — while still being a sturdy, playful family dog.

Ginger

Mini Goldendoodle · 27 lb

Teddy

Miniature Poodle · 12 lb

Cinnamon

Miniature Poodle · 17 lb

Our pairings have produced puppies that matured roughly between 14 and 28 lb depending on the parents. We share both parents' weights so you can estimate, but adult size is always an estimate — never a guarantee.

The Dogs Behind Our Puppies

Every parent dog lives in our home as part of the family.

Ginger, a 27 lb Mini Goldendoodle mother dog at Joyful Doodles in Washington

Ginger

Mini Goldendoodle · 27 lb

Our social one. Ginger meets every guest at the door and is the dog our kids read next to.

Teddy, a 12 lb Miniature Poodle stud dog at Joyful Doodles in Washington

Teddy

Miniature Poodle · 12 lb

Smart, tidy and quick to learn. Teddy is the reason our puppies stay on the smaller side.

Cinnamon, a 17 lb Bernese Mountain Dog at Joyful Doodles in Washington

Cinnamon

Miniature Poodle · 17 lb

The calm center of our house. Cinnamon is patient with puppies and happiest lying in a doorway where she can see everyone.

“He came home already used to our kind of chaos — kids, doorbells, the vacuum. That made the first week so much easier.”

“We wanted a smaller dog we could take everywhere. She fits under the seat, and she still thinks she runs the house.”
