Carmel x Carlos Cruz
​Mini and Petite sized Goldendoodle Puppies
Ready 5/5
$3000 + $240 tax
​$500 deposit and application required
~ALL RESERVED

Header picture on this page are of their previous litter (and first) together.

Carmel x Cruz - mini to petite sized F1b Goldendoodle puppies - Carmel is a mini F1 Goldendoodle about 35 lbs and Cruz is a red mini Poodle about 25 lbs.  We are expecting the puppies to be about 25 lbs as adults, although we cannot guarantee adult size, coat style, or color.   Carmel is the daughter of retired AKC golden retriever Cassie, and they both live with a guardian family that has 4 young kids that love to play with the puppies.  

Nonrefundable $500 deposit and Application required to hold a spot.  We prefer those that have been referred to us and/or have an understanding of what is involved with the serious decision of getting a puppy.....
​Picking goes in order of deposit received - and we need gender confirmation! ....if someone moves off the list, the list moves up.    These puppies are $3000.   We are a legit business, not a large kennel - we are NYS inspected and licensed (PD #1042), and we do have to charge 8% NYS sales tax if applicable, so total (inc deposit) is $3240 - yes, the deposit is included in that.  The $500 non-refundable deposit can be paid to PayPal using Friends & Family option only (so no fee) to cherrie1@yahoo.com.   The balance is due in cash, PayPal, bank check, or already cleared check in advance or on 5/5.  We put an enormous amount of time and costs into our puppies and parents, so we do not negotiate, sorry.   

We work very hard and pay for the best help to make sure our puppies are raised happily and healthily, and that all of our parent dogs are receiving best of care.   If you come by referral of an RVD owner, you probably already heard that we do not cut corners and provide ongoing support.  A previous litter page (to see what the pups looked like), can be found at this link:   Carmel's Previous Litter

PICKUP OPTIONS:  Pickup is in Rochester, NY on Saturday, May 5th.   Picking goes in order of deposit and gender confirmed - we will schedule the times on here as it gets closer.   If you cannot be here for Picking on that day, we can Facetime/Skype with you.   OR, DELIVERY OPTION is on Sunday the 6th - Albany, NY and Newburgh, NY for additional $100 (paid directly to the delivery driver, not to us).

We do not ship our puppies, but we are happy to assist you on coming to take your puppy onboard a flight with you or arrange a flight nanny.  Our airport code is ROC.

The puppies will come with our 2 year health guarantee agreement (terms), first shots and a health certificate from a vet verifying their health (they will need boosters), LLBean tote bag with goodies such as food, treats, toys, and puppy blanket that they have all slept/played with.  

They will be eating Hills Science Diet Puppy food Small Bites.

If you are looking for a Shopping List that includes links to the puppy food, see this page:  Shopping List

We will communicate via email additional details, including our address and also the contract agreement in advance.  

Please, only serious, energetic, applicants that have patience and a sense of humor - and the willingness to commit to training, exercise, and safe socialization for their puppy.  If you have children, they must be GENTLE and responsible, and willing to work with a trainer as well.  We have a wonderful community of awesome owners and we hope to continue that - puppy raising is hard work and requires a sense of humor, lots of time and patience, and support from dog walkers/vets/trainers.   

We post some pictures every 2 to 3 weeks - but, we don't do a lot until the day before they go, on 5/4 - we will do lots of individual pics and also some videos of them (if they cooperate).  Please do not pick a puppy until 5/5.


​

List could change at any time - pick times are estimates, please be ready

Please let me know if you are coming on May 5th or want to do FaceTime/Skype and delivery option to Albany/Newburgh on the 6th.   

​For credit payments, we accept PayPal only if you send it using the friends/family option so that there is no extra processing fee.  We also of course take cash, or checks sent in advance.  

5/4

I can't say the weights are super accurate - we tried!
WEIGHTS 5/4:
Purple orange Flowers Girl = 6.4#
Pink Raindrops Girl = 7.3#
Pink heart Diamonds Girl = 6.4#
Black Tuxedo Boy = 7.9#
Blue Squares Boy = 6.9#
Brown Bones Boy = 5#

​

4/26 -    Pic of collar, then of that puppy until a new collar pic...   best seen if you click on a pic to enlarge it and then use the arrow to go next/back.   Next pics on 5/4.

First is blue paws boy - he has white on his head, muzzle, chest, and paws.  He will be curly.
2nd is black tux boy - he has white on his head and chest, and muzzle.  He is small boned.  He will be curly.
3rd is blue squares boy - he is a dark dark red with couple of white markings.  He will be curly.
4th is orange gummy bear boy - he is an apricot/tan color with white markings.  He is small boned.  He will be curly.
5th is red bones boy - he is a little boy that is a light red with white markings.  He will be wavy.  He has a hernia.
6th is pink raindrops (peacock?) girl - is sorta a brown red with white chest and some on muzzle.  Wavy.
7th is purple orange flower girl -  is a brown red (dark apricot?) with a tiny bit of white.  Wavy.
8th is pink argyle/hearts girl - is brown red (dark apricot?) with a smidge of white.  Wavy.
9th is brown bones boy - is a brown red (dark apricot?) with a tiny bit of white.  Wavy.
​
They are all reds - variations of dark red, brown red, dark apricot in color.   All of them have at least a tiny bit of white on them, with some being very obviously parti/tux white marked.  They are much smaller than they appear in the pics!   Maybe about 4 to 5 lbs each right now.  There is not too much difference in sizes and this could certainly change in a week, or a month, and does not determine if they will stay biggest/smallest of the litter through adulthood.   All of them are super sweet, and are getting a lot of kid attention.   They are very excited to say hi to people and really want one on one time - so they are almost ready for you!

Carmel's video 4/25 - my sister is a dork, what can I say ;-)

I will upload individual pictures in the next day or two.   What a project !   It is grey and dreary, and muddy.  They love to wiggle, wiggle.   Please review the information emails sent already to refresh your minds on preparation details and logistics.  After these pics, the next ones will be 5/4.

Mini to petite sized Goldendoodle Puppies on 3/21/18

So girls on the pink blanket, boys on the blue.  These pics are in gallery style, so click on one to make it larger and use the back/next arrows.   They are much smaller than they appear!   One pooped in the middle of the photo shoot, so they are already developing a sense of humor - but no really, they don't do anything besides sleep and drink milk all day - they can't really see or even hear yet.
