Our story & purpose

Raised in our home, with a purpose.

RGV Doodles began with one family-raised litter and a desire to raise these puppies with the same care and attention we give our own pets. We are not a large commercial breeding operation.

Our goal is to raise healthy, well-socialized puppies and place them with loving, responsible families. We value transparency about parent DNA, veterinary care, development, and what we can—and cannot—predict about a mixed-breed puppy.

All net proceeds from this litter will help support missions by assisting our son in his missionary work in Honduras, where he serves underprivileged women and children.

Meet the parents

Annie & Max

Both parents have Embark DNA documentation, giving prospective families a clearer picture of the puppies’ ancestry.

Mom

Annie

Annie is a small 17–18 lb companion dog and a beloved member of our family. Her Embark DNA results show about 80% Small Poodle, with additional Pekingese, Maltese, and other ancestry. She has extensive Embark genetic health and trait testing. Annie is non-shedding.

17–18 lbAbout 80% Small PoodleEmbark health testedNon-shedding

Dad

Max

Max is an approximately 28 lb Goldendoodle. His Embark Certificate of Breed identifies him as a Goldendoodle. Max is also non-shedding, and a copy of the available parent DNA documentation can be shared with serious puppy families.

How they’re raised

Right here at home.

Our puppies grow up around normal family life rather than in a commercial kennel environment.

Daily handling

Each puppy receives regular individual handling and attention as they grow and become more aware of the world around them.

Closely monitored

We have tracked their growth from birth and pay close attention to nursing, weight gain, feeding transitions, and development.

With mom & littermates

They remain with Annie and one another during this important developmental period while gradually learning to eat puppy food and explore.

Normal household life

As age appropriate, they experience people, household activity, sounds, surfaces, toys, and gentle new experiences.

Careful placement

We want each puppy matched with a permanent home that understands the commitment involved in bringing home a young dog.

Ongoing updates

Photos and profile information will be updated as the puppies grow so families can watch their development before go-home day.

Health, DNA & transparency

Clear information. No exaggerated promises.

We want puppy families to understand what we know about the parents, the veterinary care the puppies receive, and what remains unpredictable in a mixed-breed litter.

✓

Parent DNA documentation

Annie has extensive Embark breed, trait, and genetic-health testing. Max has Embark-documented Goldendoodle ancestry.

✓

Age-appropriate veterinary care

Puppies will leave with applicable health, vaccination, deworming, and microchip information.

✓

Coat & grooming expectations

Both Annie and Max are non-shedding. Based on the parents and the puppies’ developing coats, we expect the puppies to shed very little or possibly not at all. Their coats will almost certainly require regular brushing and professional grooming. No dog can be guaranteed hypoallergenic.

✓

Optional individual Embark testing

After a puppy has a deposit, the family may request Embark DNA Health + Breed testing for an additional $140. We cannot guarantee the test results. If the report identifies a serious genetic health issue, the puppy deposit will be refundable; the $140 DNA testing cost is nonrefundable.

✓

Honest expectations

Exact adult size, individual breed percentages, and final adult coat texture cannot be guaranteed.

Going home

Ready for a great start.

The puppies turn eight weeks old on September 24, 2026, and we expect them to be available to approved families around that time, assuming each puppy is developmentally ready.

Microchipped

Each puppy will go home microchipped, with the available microchip information for the new family.

Veterinary records

We’ll provide applicable health, age-appropriate vaccination, and deworming information.

4.5-lb starter bag of food

Each puppy will go home with a 4.5-lb bag of the food we use: Hill’s Science Diet Puppy Small Breed & Mini Breed Chicken Meal & Brown Rice Recipe Dry Dog Food.

Parent DNA information

Copies of available Annie and Max Embark documentation can be shared with puppy families.

Feeding & care information

We’ll share the puppy’s current feeding routine and practical transition information for the first days at home.

Optional Embark test

After deposit, buyers may request individual Embark DNA Health + Breed testing for $140. See the Health & DNA section for terms.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What kind of puppies are they?

We describe them as Goldendoodle / Mini Poodle mix puppies. Annie is about 80% Small Poodle according to Embark, and Max has an Embark Certificate of Breed identifying him as a Goldendoodle. Because this is a mixed-breed litter, individual breed percentages are not guaranteed.

How big are they expected to be?

Annie is about 17–18 lb and Max is about 28 lb. Their puppies may mature somewhere around the small-to-medium companion range, but adult size can vary and is not guaranteed.

What will their coats be like?

Based on how their coats are developing now, Abby, Belle, and Charlie look most likely to mature curly to wavy, while Bailey and Cooper look most likely to be wavy. Abby is currently the curliest puppy in the litter. Both parents are non-shedding, so we expect the puppies to shed very little or possibly not at all. These coats will almost certainly need regular brushing and professional grooming.

When can they go home?

The puppies were born July 30, 2026 and turn eight weeks old on September 24, 2026. We expect them to be available to approved families around that time, after age-appropriate care and once each puppy is developmentally ready.

What will my puppy go home with?

Each puppy will go home microchipped, with applicable veterinary/vaccination/deworming information, feeding and transition information, available parent DNA documentation, and a 4.5-lb starter bag of Hill’s Science Diet Puppy Small Breed & Mini Breed Chicken Meal & Brown Rice Recipe Dry Dog Food.

Can I have an individual Embark DNA test done on my puppy?

Yes. After you have a deposit on a puppy, we can send a sample for Embark DNA Health + Breed testing for an additional $140. We cannot guarantee the DNA results. If the report identifies a serious genetic health issue, the puppy deposit will be refundable; the $140 DNA test cost is nonrefundable.

Can I see the parents’ Embark information?

Yes. Copies of the available parent DNA documentation can be shared with serious prospective puppy families.

How do I reserve a puppy?

Submit an application first. After we review it, we’ll contact you directly. Reservation deposits and payments are handled offline rather than through an online store.

Where are the puppies located?

The puppies are being raised with our family in North McAllen, Texas, in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas.
