Miniature Poodle Puppies for Sale in California
The Puppy Lodge offers Miniature Poodle puppies for sale in California, with every litter raised in Ohio. Our home farm is in Fresno, a small town in Coshocton County about 80 miles east of Columbus. A flight nanny can bring your puppy to one of California's major airports, or a pet transport van can drive it to your front door.
At full size our Mini Poodles weigh between 10 and 15 pounds, with a curly single coat that keeps growing and sheds very little. Your puppy's own health record travels with it and shows its vet check, its microchip, and the vaccinations and dewormings it has had so far.
Reserving Your Miniature Poodle Puppy Online From California
Each Miniature Poodle below has its own page, and you can reserve and pay for one without leaving the site. Color, coat type, and gender set the final price, which begins at $1,995.
The $200 deposit you pay to hold a puppy is non-refundable. Switching to a different pick later is fine, since the deposit can move to another available puppy. Reservations work first come, first served, and there is no waitlist to join ahead of time. You can also claim a pick from a litter before it is born, since upcoming litters are listed for reservation.
For families who want to spread out the cost, Credova offers financing through an online application. No puppy leaves before eight weeks of age, and delivery is available anywhere in California. When the listings come up empty, signing up for our newsletter is how you hear about new litters first.

How Your Miniature Poodle Puppy Travels to California
We sort out the travel plan with you by phone after you reserve, including the date your puppy arrives. Driving from the farm in Ohio to California takes 32 to 38 hours depending on where you live in the state, which is why a flight nanny is our first choice for this trip. We send every puppy off with a blanket carrying its mother's scent, plus a bag of its current food for a slow change of diet once it is home.
Flying Your Puppy to California With a Nanny
With a flight nanny, your puppy flies in the cabin with a trained handler on a regular commercial flight. Nothing rides in cargo. During the flight the puppy sits under the seat ahead of the handler in an airline approved soft carrier, and photos and video come to your phone along the way. The handoff happens at baggage claim, and a licensed vet signs the health certificate ahead of time.
In California, nannies fly into Sacramento International, San Francisco International, Mineta San Jose International, Los Angeles International, and San Diego International. The nanny service only flies puppies that are eight weeks or older and under 20 pounds counting the carrier, and a Mini Poodle puppy clears the weight rule by a wide margin. Coastal fog and winter storms can hold up flights, so the plan needs some give on the date. Nanny prices are quoted flight by flight and run higher than the van, though the trip is faster.
A Pet Transport Van to Your Door
The van option costs around $450 and comes door to door, so nobody has to drive to an airport. The trip is handled by a professional pet transport service, which puts two drivers in a custom climate controlled van for every run. Your puppy gets a vet checkup before it leaves and has a carrier to itself for the ride. The drivers send updates while they are on the road.
Picking Up in Fresno, Ohio
If a trip east is already on your calendar, you can stop at the farm by appointment and take your puppy home yourself. On pickup day there is time for a look around before we review the puppy's vaccination records, microchip registration, and health guarantee together.
The Miniature Poodle Puppy Breeder Network Serving California Families
Raising dogs has been the Nisley family's work for more than 13 years, and The Puppy Lodge grew out of their five acre farm in Fresno. Under our broker license, a closed group of nearby kennels raises the litters. Only Puppy Lodge dogs live at those kennels, the breeders there follow the testing and breeding standards we set, and no puppy from outside the group is ever sold through us. Apart from the occasional outside stud, every parent dog is owned by The Puppy Lodge.
We screen every parent's health and genetics before pairing, and the conditions we test for include progressive retinal atrophy, which slowly damages the retina in Miniature Poodles. Testing lowers the chances, but no breeder can rule the risk out completely, and we would rather be upfront about that. Danville Veterinary Clinic sends a vet to the kennels weekly to check the grown dogs and newborn litters. Early neurological stimulation runs from day 3 until day 16, and the family's children handle and play with the puppies every day. Crate and potty training start before they go home, and each puppy comes with a written three year health guarantee.
As a Miniature Poodle puppy breeder serving California from across the country, we can tell you by phone how any parent was tested, and our 50+ Google reviews let you hear from other families too.
