This dog breed tends to be highly adaptable. Although they have a lot of energy, they tend to do well in apartments as well as larger homes as long as they get enough exercise and attention. They are sensitive to heat, but do well in most climates.

A Miniature Golden Mountain Doodle often has a wavy or curly low or non-shedding coat. Colors can vary from the various Poodle colors to the classic Bernese ti-color and anything in between.

Although they have a low or non-shedding coat, their coat requires a lot of grooming. Daily brushing is recommended to remove tangles and prevent mats. Brushing or clipping are recommended every 4-6 weeks.

In addition to coat care, you will also need to take care of your Mini Golden Mountain Doodle’s nails, ears, and teeth. The dog groomer may be able to help you handle some of it, but you will still need to do some maintenance at home between visits.

Cutting nails twice a month keeps them from growing too long. If your dog’s nails grow more slowly, you may be able to get away with nail trims only once a month. Weekly ear checks with careful cleanings as needed can help prevent ear infections.
