We Feel Blessed Raising Goldendoodles. Meet Charlie and Moose, the Bissell Family's Two Amazing Goldendoodles from ABCs Puppy Zs.
Mini Goldendoodles blend the Golden’s friendly nature with the Mini Poodle’s intelligence and low-shedding coat—making them an easy, loving fit for families and first-time dog owners. Here’s why families choose ABCs Puppy Zs:
A Mini Goldendoodle is a cross between a Golden Retriever and a Miniature Poodle—bright, affectionate, and low-shedding. Their gentle Goldendoodle Temperament, compact size, and moderate energy make them easy, family-friendly companions that typically get along well with other pets.
From the Mini Poodle, Minis inherit keen intelligence and eagerness to please, which makes training straightforward. They also tend to have a low-shedding, easy-care coat—often a good match for allergy-sensitive homes.
From the Golden Retriever side come steadiness, affection, and a love of family life (and yes, many enjoy water). The result is a social, people-oriented dog that thrives in both active and relaxed households.
Mini Goldendoodles are a loving cross between a Golden Retriever and a Miniature Poodle—friendly, smart, and typically low-shedding—an easy fit for families (including allergy-sensitive homes) seeking a playful companion with moderate exercise needs.
Choosing the right breeder isn’t just about finding a cute puppy — it’s about health, ethics, and support for years to come. A truly ethical Goldendoodle breeder prioritizes welfare over volume, proves health, and stands behind every pup. Here’s what that looks like (and what to avoid):
At ABCs Puppy Zs we follow these standards — our sires and dams are AKC-registered and health-tested, puppies are raised in our home with structured socialization, and every family receives transparent records, a clear contract, and lifetime support. Learn more in our Ethical Goldendoodle Breeder guide and our Health & FAQs.
Minis thrive on routine, gentle structure, and regular upkeep. Aim for daily exercise, positive-reinforcement training, and a simple grooming rhythm to keep coats healthy and temperaments balanced.
Adopting an F1 or F1B Mini Goldendoodle should feel clear and low-stress. Here’s a simple path we recommend: research ethical breeders/rescues, confirm health testing, meet the litter (virtually or in person), place a deposit only when you’re comfortable, then prep for go-home day.
Ethical; means health and welfare first, transparency always, and long-term support. Use this quick checklist as you vet options:

Mini Goldendoodles are smart, affectionate, and typically low-shedding — a great fit for families and first-time owners. With modest daily exercise, regular brushing and 4–6-week grooms, plus positive, bite-sized training and early socialization, they settle quickly into family life and become cheerful, well-mannered companions for years to come.
