Our current waitlist is approximately 2-4 months, though this varies by season and litter availability.

Yes — we offer personal delivery of our Goldendoodle puppies anywhere in the United States. We believe in hand-delivering your puppy rather than shipping, so either JP or Erin personally drives or flies your puppy to you. Delivery fees vary based on distance and travel method. Many of our families prefer delivery because it reduces stress on the puppy and eliminates the need for a long trip. Contact us for a delivery quote to your area.

We breed miniature and medium Goldendoodles. Our miniature Goldendoodles typically weigh under 30 pounds fully grown, while our medium Goldendoodles range from 30 to 50 pounds. We can help you choose the right size based on your family's living situation, activity level, and preferences. Both sizes carry the same friendly, intelligent temperament that Goldendoodles are known for.

An F1B Goldendoodle is 75% Poodle and 25% Golden Retriever — a cross between a first-generation Goldendoodle and a purebred Poodle. This generation is popular for its low-shedding, allergy-friendly coat while maintaining the classic Goldendoodle personality. An F1BB Goldendoodle takes it one step further at 87.5% Poodle and 12.5% Golden Retriever, making it the best choice for families with severe allergies. At Doodles of NC, we breed both F1B and F1BB Goldendoodles, carefully selecting parents to produce puppies with the signature teddy bear appearance, soft coats, and gentle temperament.

Every puppy born at Doodles of NC is raised inside our family home alongside our two young daughters. From day one, puppies experience everyday household sounds, surfaces, and activities. We follow early neurological stimulation (ENS) protocols during the first weeks of life, introduce age-appropriate toys and enrichment activities, and ensure each puppy has positive experiences with handling, grooming, and new environments. By the time they go home at eight weeks, our puppies are confident, well-adjusted, and ready to bond with their new family.

Puppies go home at eight weeks of age. This timing is based on developmental research — puppies need the full eight weeks with their mother and littermates to develop proper social skills, bite inhibition, and confidence. Before pickup or delivery day, each puppy receives a final veterinary exam, updated vaccinations, and their microchip. Through our closed Doodles of NC Facebook group, with over 1,000 current and future families, for support throughout your entire puppies life to guide you so your home is ready when your puppy arrives.
