Frequently Asked Questions
Buying a dog is such a big investment and we are sure you have a lot of questions. Below is a list of questions we get asked. If you are still needing information after reviewing this, feel free to CONTACT US.

Where are you located?
We are located in League city, Texas just south of Houston.
Are parents health tested?
All of our parents are genetically health tested for breed specific diseases.
Is my reservation fee refundable?
Reservation fees are NON-REFUNDABLE, but may be transferred to another litter.
How does the reservation list work?
To secure your place on a reservation list, you will need to fill out a puppy application and submit a deposit. You may be placed on one list or multiple, however only one deposit is required. At 6 weeks old we have a puppy pick day. At your scheduled appointment you will choose your puppy from the available puppies. Keep in mind the earlier you put a deposit down, the higher on the list and the more likely you are to get the exact sex and color you would like.
If you have questions or concerns, please do not feel obligated to fill out the puppy application to ask us. We are happy to be a resource and answer any other questions you may have!
When do I get to pick my puppy?
We do puppy picking at 6 weeks old!
Will My Puppies' Eyes stay blue?
We can not guarantee your pups’ eyes will stay blue because they can change up till 16 weeks old but 90% of the time I can tell if they will or will not change.
Can i pick the Color eyes, color or sex of my puppy?
Space City Mini Aussies & Doodles can not guarantee that the color eyes, color and sex will be available as the puppies are picked in order of deposits received. We strive to produce healthy, happy puppies with amazing temperaments over specific appearances, although color is always a bonus! However, we do allow you to move to another reservation list if the perfect puppy is not available for your family at pick time.
How big will my puppy get?
Mini Australian shepherds: 17-25lbs
Mini Aussiedoodles & Goldendoodles: 20-35lbs
Medium Aussiedoodles & Goldendoodles: 35-50lbs
Standard Aussiedoodles & Goldendoodles: 50+ lbs
*Specific sizes cannot be guaranteed for an adult dog. We estimate puppy adult weight by averaging the weights of their specific parents.
*Buyers must be willing to accept a puppy with the weights and heights only being estimated, as there is the possibility for puppies to be more or less than the estimated weight due to genetics.
Can I come meet the puppy?
For the health & safety of the puppies we do Meet & greet for our families who are on the reservation list at 4-5 weeks old. For safety reasons we only allow children over the age of 3 to visit.
Will my puppy be Crate & Potty Trained?
We work through early socialization to get the puppies familiar with a crate, but this does not mean they will not whine – especially the first few nights! We suggest using a snuggle puppy (which we will send home with you) to help your new puppy adjust to using a crate by themselves. Positively associate the crate by allowing your puppy to play “crate-games”, sleep, and take breaks in the crate. You are creating great habits as well as a “safe place” for your puppy by using the crate. It is also helpful house-training & keeping your puppy out of mischief!
We use a litter box with alfalfa pellets when potty training. The alfalfa is digestible in case the puppies eat it and smells like grass to help associate pottying with outside smells. We recommend taking your puppy out regularly and using lots of praise when your pup does potty outside.
Puppies have a head start when they go home but will still need training!
Do you Ship Puppies?
We do not ship puppies but do offer a flight nanny & Delivery service. Please inquire for a price if interested.
Does my puppy come with papers?
Yes, our Mini Aussies do come with papers but our Goldendoodles & Aussiedoodles are considered a mixed breed therefore they are not recognized by AKC and can not be registered.
What kind of Food do you feed?
We feed TLC Pet Food to our puppies. Each puppy will be sent home with some food in their swag bag.
What is an Aussiedoodle?

What is a Goldendoodle?
