At Miss Cindy’s Doodles, finding the right puppy is about more than choosing a color, coat type, or place on a list — it is about thoughtfully matching each puppy with a family where they can truly thrive.
This page explains our pricing, application and approval process, Priority Reservation List, puppy selection timeline, what is included when your puppy goes home, and other important details about reserving a Miss Cindy’s Doodles puppy. Our process begins with the Puppy Application, which helps us learn more about your family, lifestyle, and what you are hoping for in a future companion.
After reviewing your application, we will schedule a phone interview to answer questions, discuss our program, and determine whether a Miss Cindy’s Doodles puppy may be the right fit for your family.
All Miss Cindy’s Doodles Petite Goldendoodle puppies are priced at $4,500, regardless of coat type, color, or gender. Our pricing reflects the investment we make in our parent dogs, our expertise in producing exceptional puppies, professional credentialing, and the fact that we specialize in breeding smaller Petite Goldendoodles who typically have smaller litters.
Please note: While every effort is made to estimate future adult size based on parental lineage and pedigree, precise adult dimensions cannot be guaranteed, as natural variation may occur.
A reservation fee will secure either the next available spot on the Priority Reservation List or an available puppy selected from the designated litter. Puppy selection takes place when puppies are six to seven weeks old. The order of selection is based on the reservation order on the Priority Reservation List. If the breeding does not result in pregnancy, you may choose to have your reservation fee refunded or apply it to the next available litter. If the litter does not produce the gender, coat, or color you desire, your reservation fee may be applied to the next litter or be refunded.
Pregnancy confirmation is performed by ultrasound four weeks after breeding. An X-ray is done 53 to 55 days post-breeding to estimate the number of expected puppies. The total gestation period for puppies is approximately two months from the time of breeding.
Puppy selection is done in person (at our home in Southern California) when the puppies reach six to seven weeks old. If an in-person visit is not possible, we can do puppy selection via FaceTime or Zoom. For the health and safety of our puppies, visitation is limited to families with approved applications and the required partial payment received. The order of selection is based on the reservation order on the Priority Reservation List.
The Stand-By List differs from the Priority Reservation List in that it only requires an approved application and not a reservation fee. Being on Stand-By means you will be notified, in order, when a waitlist opens or if extra puppies become available. If you choose to reserve a puppy, a reservation fee will then be required to hold your spot on the Priority Reservation List.
As the breeder, we reserve the right to the first pick in every litter, although we typically do not choose to keep a puppy. Occasionally, we may sell our "Breeder's Pick" spot to a breeder from an approved outside breeding program. Breeders interested in purchasing a pick with breeding rights should contact us directly for pricing and additional information.
At eight weeks of age, puppies receive their health exams from a licensed veterinarian, their first set of vaccinations, and deworming (as needed), along with a health certificate and vaccination record. Every puppy goes home with a custom Miss Cindy's Doodles tote bag containing a harness and leash, a bag of pawTree treats, two toys, two blankets, the book Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint by Corinne Gearhart (The Doodle Pro), and a heartbeat Snuggle Puppy™. Additionally, our puppies are microchipped and have Limited Registration with GANA™ (The Goldendoodle Association of North America). All puppy families receive lifetime breeder support.
If you continue with our recommended food and supplements, we extend this guarantee to 48 months. To learn more, visit Health Guarantees.
We prioritize the well-being of our puppies and prospective owners. Therefore, we reserve the right to decline a sale if we determine that the match is not in the best interest of either party. In such cases, the reservation fee will be refunded.
While we strive to provide accurate estimates of our puppies’ adult sizes and possible colors, it is important to remember that these are predictions, not guarantees. Nature plays a significant role, and we cannot promise specific genders, coat types (smooth, wavy, or curly), or coat colors for each litter. However, we do guarantee that all of our puppies will have low- to non-shedding coats and will be fully furnished, giving them the classic "Teddy Bear" appearance.
