Mini Goldendoodle traits are an incredibly popular puppy – one of our most requested breeds. Most people are drawn to their adorable teddy bear look and compact, easy-to-organize size.
Mini Goldendoodles are incredibly loving little dogs, but they are not suitable for everyone. For example, they require a high level of human companionship so they are not a good choice for families who do not have a lot of time to play with these incredibly loving dogs.
Breed Overview
It can be a little confusing when researching breeders because different breeders sometimes have different names or definitions for different Goldendoodle sizes. From our experience, most breeders consider mini gold doodles under 30 lbs.
Like the Golden Retriever, the Standard Poodle was originally bred as a Water Retriever and is highly trainable and athletic. The miniature/toy poodle came on the scene a little later, tracing its roots back to the standard poodle, but was bred to become a small lap dog, a prized pet/companion of the 18th-century European aristocracy.
Bred specifically for its small size and companionship rather than athletic field work, the miniature poodle is more attention-seeking and known for its quick, sweet personality and cheerful disposition.
Breeding a loving, talkative Golden Retriever with a smart, dedicated miniature poodle is a winning combination for many families! Mini Gold Androids are delightfully clever, fun, and fast! Owners often describe their Mini Goldendoodle traits as almost human-like in their wit and quirks!
The downside is that if your little golden retriever isn’t getting his attention needs met, he can become a little demanding — seeking your attention with negative behaviors like barking.
Mini Goldendoodle Personality for Trainability?
Mini Gold Endoodles are incredibly trainable — even more so than average! As mentioned earlier, Golden Retrievers are the most common breed in the service dog industry so they have a world-renowned reputation for obedience and trainability.
The miniature poodle is also known to be a delight. They are smart (sometimes too smart!), sensitive and intuitive. Likewise, Mini Gold Endodol always knows what its owners are thinking and feeling.
Although miniature gold noodles can have a bit of an attitude and when it comes to their overall outlook on life, we’d still consider them above average when it comes to trainability. For the most part, they are good-natured, eager to please, and pick up new commands very quickly!
Energy Levels of Mini Goldendoodles
When it comes to different dog temperaments, alertness, and trainability often go hand in hand with high energy. Mini Gold Endodol is no exception—we’d rate their energy level as medium, or slightly above average.
Are Mini Goldendoodles Family Friendly?
Overall, the Mini Gold Endodel is above average when it comes to being able to accommodate different family members although may not be the best choice for families with especially young children. Small Gold Endoodles are friendly and playful. They get along well with other dogs especially if paired with a similar energy level.
The compact size of the small gold endodel can make them more manageable for some families. A small goldendoodle is less likely to knock over a baby even if the dog jumps on it.
The mini Goldendoodle traits can also exhibit the more “excited” characteristics of the Miniature Poodle which can cause them to panic or react worse to the unexpected movements/movements of small children. They usually do well with toddlers or older children as they enjoy the company of multiple family members! For the most part, the Mini Gold Endodel is a friendly, sociable breed that fits well with many types of families.
Adaptation and holistic care?
Regarding adaptability, we’d score the Little Gold Endel as average. They adapt well to apartment living. Their small size means they can easily fit into small spaces and can hide. They need a lot of play to release their energy, but a little fetch play in the yard will do the trick. They don’t require long walks or strenuous exercise.
This is one area in which they are not adaptable—you should be able to spend time with your mini gold endodol. This is not a dog to be left alone in the backyard all day. Finally, many people like the curly fur of Mini Gold Endodil which results in minimal shedding. However, remember that this breed requires regular grooming and brushing to avoid long, matted hair.
Finally, if you are looking for a loyal companion who will never refuse a whimper and is ready to accompany you wherever you go, the Mini Gold Endodol may be the perfect breed for you!
