The mild local pattern of hot summers and mild winters in San Jose keeps daily city life with a Mini Doxiedoodle predictable. Walks go at comfortable hours year round, the wavy coat stays tidy with regular grooming, and no part of the year is hard on the breed.

Rideshares work for the breed, and most outdoor cafes and pet-friendly stores welcome the dog. The comfortable climate makes daily city errands easy.
Why San Jose Families Choose The Puppy Lodge for Their Mini Doxiedoodle
When you’re buying a designer breed like the Mini Doxiedoodle, knowing where both sides of the cross come from is everything. A lot of breeders producing Dachshund-Poodle mixes are working with parent dogs they don’t know much about. We raise both Miniature Dachshunds and Miniature Poodles ourselves, so we know the health, temperament, and genetics on both sides of every litter. All of our parent dogs are healthy and genetically tested. That means we can tell you exactly what to expect from your puppy, which is rare with a cross that can be unpredictable when the breeding isn’t done right.
Mini Doxiedoodles are smart, affectionate dogs that pick up on everything around them. That intelligence needs to be put to work early with socialization and positive interaction, or it can turn into boredom and possible bad habits. Our kids are in with the puppies every day from the time they’re born, playing with them and getting them used to being handled by people of all ages. We’re a family of nine with over 13 years of experience raising puppies, and that gives every puppy a head start on life in a real family environment. Every puppy also undergoes Early Neurological Stimulation between days 3 and 16, which builds stronger cardiovascular development, stress tolerance, and immune response before they ever leave our farm.
Our puppies are raised in our climate-controlled kennel, with heated tile floors in winter and geothermal cooling in summer. Our adults and puppies have access to large outdoor play areas on our five-acre farm in Central Ohio. We’re certified through the Purdue University Canine Care Program, one of the few breeders in the country to hold that distinction, and our vet at Danville Veterinary Clinic visits every week. We stand behind every puppy with a 3-year health guarantee. Every puppy comes up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, and with a blanket carrying mom’s scent. We welcome visitors by appointment and deliver puppies nationwide right to your door.
About Mini Doxiedoodles
The Mini Doxiedoodle is a designer breed created by crossing a Miniature Dachshund with a Miniature Poodle. You may also see this mix referred to as a Doxiepoo, Doxipoo, Dachdoodle, or Dachshundoodle. This is a relatively new crossbreed that started gaining popularity in the United States in the early 2000s as part of the growing interest in Poodle mixes, prized for combining the Poodle’s intelligence and low shedding coat with the traits of other popular breeds. Mini Doxiedoodles are small dogs that typically weigh 10 to 20 pounds and stand 8 to 12 inches tall at the shoulder, though size can vary depending on the individual parents. Their appearance is one of the more unpredictable things about the mix. They may inherit the Dachshund’s longer body and shorter legs, the Poodle’s more proportional build, or something in between, and even puppies within the same litter can look quite different from one another. Their coat is usually wavy to curly, thanks to the Poodle influence, and tends to be low shedding, which makes them a good option for families looking for a more allergy friendly dog. Regular coat brushing several times a week and professional grooming around every six to eight weeks will keep their coat in good shape. In terms of personality, Mini Doxiedoodles are smart, affectionate, and full of character. They bond closely with their families and love being involved in whatever is going on around them. They are playful and social and usually do well with children and other pets when socialized early. They inherit intelligence from both parent breeds and learn really quickly, though the Dachshund side can bring a touch of stubbornness, so consistent positive reinforcement training from a young age works best. They can be vocal and make surprisingly alert little watchdogs despite their size. Mini Doxiedoodles have moderate energy levels and need about 30 to 45 minutes of basic exercise daily, including walks and playtime, along with some basic mental stimulation to keep them happy and out of trouble. Their compact size and adaptable nature make them well suited for apartments and smaller homes as well as larger spaces. With proper care, exercise, a balanced diet, and regular vet visits, Mini Doxiedoodles typically live 12 to 15 years.

How Puppy Delivery Works To San Jose, California
The easiest way to get your Mini Doxiedoodle puppy home to San Jose is through our professional flight nanny service.

Since San Jose is about 42 to 44 hours hours from our kennel in Ohio, an in-person pickup is a bigger commitment, but you’re always welcome to visit by appointment if you’d like to meet your puppy’s parents and see our operation firsthand.
