Tiny but Mighty! 🐶💤
Newborn puppies may not look like much at first, and their constant twitching can seem a little strange. But don’t worry—it’s completely normal! This phenomenon, called activated sleep, helps puppies develop their nervous system and motor skills. Some experts even believe they dream during REM sleep—what about? We can only guess!
Meanwhile, little Sesame looks like she's waving "hi" to the big world ahead. 👋🥰

Our Aussie Mountain Doodles (Aussiedoodle x Bernedoodle) from Stormy & Buster are popular family dogs...loyal, intelligent, trainable, sociable, and with a great activity level for a busy household. What's not to love? Well, evidently some like the "medium/standard" size that we currently offer, while others prefer the mini size of our Golden Mountain Doodles.
We are excited to introduce MIDGE! Our 13-y.o. son, Enoch, loves dogs and currently helps Bekah with grooming and dog care. We all agreed that he's at the perfect age to take on a puppy of his own and learn all about puppy/dog care, ENS and early socialization of puppies, and everything else we do here at Carrier Family Doodles. So we found MIDGE, a mini Aussiedoodle, who will be all "his." He is super excited. She's already sleeping in his bed. 🥰
Midge is currently 12-ish weeks old and, at some point in the more distant future, will hopefully produce some beautiful, MINI Aussie Mountain Doodles with our Ranger or Hero.
For now, she is living her best life with a few of our other new puppies and all our adult dogs. Her favorite activity at the moment is fetch with a giant tennis ball. 😂

This is a fun memory Bekah sent me...our last few puppies hanging out before going 🏠 for the holidays. They found a Christmas box and made a cute little package of themselves. Looking forward to the next 📦 drop! 🔜

Carly will be retring this Spring! Her Tuxedo puppies (both black and golden) are always gorgeous, and she has really pretty parti puppies as well. Some people who get puppies of ours end up wanting a "puppy for their puppy." So here's our PSA: If you have a beloved Carly puppy, and want a "sibling," your last chance is coming up!
Carly is an F1b Goldendoodle, so her Golden Mountain Doodle puppies are a higher percentage of poodle (about 65%). These puppies are often preferred by those with allergy concerns. Enjoy the video that celebrates Carly and showcases her adorable offspring from some of her previous litters. If you have a "Carly puppy," feel free to drop a photo in comments.

A Day in the Life at Carrier Family Doodles (or, What do Our Doodles Do All Day?)
We focus a lot of attention on our puppies here at Carrier Family Doodles. But what does an average day like for our Goldendoodle and Bernedoodle "parent dogs?" I'm posting a little video, but there's also a blog with some photos here: https://www.carrierfamilydoodles.com/day-in-the-life/

Our first KY snow day with our Bernedoodles and Goldendoodles! ❄️ Watching them run and play in the fresh snow is pure joy. 🐾 They are having sooo much fun! 🥰 #SnowDayFun #Bernedoodles #SnowPlay #FurryFriends
Our last puppy in this bunch is LUNA! She is a friendly and playful, unfurnished Golden Mountain Doodle. We get questions all the time about our unfurnished puppies, so I thought you might like to see a video of Luna to compare her appearance to those of the typical, fully furnished Doodle.
An unfurnished Golden Mountain Doodle ends up having a flat muzzle, more like the Bernese or the Retriever in the parent mix. They will not have the classic, "bearded" Doodle look, and may shed some. While furnishing gene is separate from the shedding gene, it is true that a fully furnished dog is more likely to be considered non-shedding.
Also important to note is that the gene for coat type is also separate from the furnishing gene, so you can have an unfurnished dog with a curlier coat, or a fully furnished dog with a straighter coat. However, an unfurnished dog with a curly coat may not be uniformly curly; the coat may be somewhat flat, with more random curls (such as on the ears or along the back).
So why do people choose an unfurnished puppy? Well, our unfurnished puppies are just as loved and well-socialized, with the same genetic health and guarantee as our fully furnished puppies, BUT they are priced at 30% less.
Some people really like the flat-muzzle look of the parent breeds (having had Labs, Retrievers, or Bernese Mountain Dogs in the past), but they dislike the shedding. Even though an unfurnished puppy typically sheds some, it is usually not at the level of the parent breeds. (Unfortunately, however, there is no way to know for sure "how much" an unfurnished puppy will shed).
Finally, some people want the mini Doodle size and personality, without the intensive grooming requirements. An unfurnished Doodle typically needs regular brushing, but, generally, very irregular grooming. That's a definite time-and-money saver, and is another reason why people choose unfurnished.
If you are one of those people who has always wondered, "What IS an unfurnished Doodle, an
Anyone else still feeling stuffed after your Thanksgiving meal?! 🍗 Even though our puppies didn't get any of the people food, they are still enjoying their morning workout. Maybe we should join them!
I was so excited to find this rocker balance at Good Will the other day for only $7.99. The exercise steps were a previous purchase. I love adding to the puppy play potential! They are fun to watch.

Our mini Golden Mountain Doodles are happy, healthy, home-raised puppies who are nurtured by their Mamas in their formative first 8 weeks, and loved by our large family for as long as they are with us. They make wonderful companions or family pets. Can you guess what some of their favorite things are?

The morning routine: the puppies take over!
We have a dedicated puppy nursery where the puppies spend a lot of time, but every morning while their room is being cleaned, they have a free-for-all in the living room. It's a lot of fun. 😁

Puppy Jail break! 😅
While Mama was out of the puppy pen, her 6-week old babies were motivated to follow. 🥰
