Keep Your Tiny Teddy Bear Pup Looking Flawless

At Cedar Doodles, we raise the kind of pups that stop people in their tracks—especially our Micro Mini Goldendoodle puppies, who are as cuddly as they are photogenic. These sweet, compact companions are beloved for their gentle personalities and plush, low-shedding coats. But just like any head-turning hairstyle, their signature Teddy Bear look requires a little upkeep.

🐾 Why Grooming Matters for Micro Mini Goldendoodles

Micro Minis might be tiny, but their coats are no small matter. These pups typically have a soft, wavy to curly fleece texture that’s prone to tangles and matting if not maintained. Grooming doesn’t just keep your pup looking polished—it also supports healthy skin, reduces allergens, and creates bonding time between you and your furry best friend.

✂️ How Often Should You Groom a Micro Mini Goldendoodle?

To maintain that fluffy, rounded Teddy Bear appearance, follow this simple schedule:

Brushing: 3–5 times per week
Bathing: Every 3–4 weeks
Professional grooming: Every 6–8 weeks
Nail trimming: Every 2–4 weeks
Ear cleaning: Weekly or as needed

Start grooming early—even if it's just brushing and paw handling. At Cedar Doodles, we begin this process with our puppies from day one so they’re confident and calm during grooming sessions later on.

Grooming Supplies

🧼 Essential Grooming Tools for Micro Minis

Because Micro Minis are, well, mini—you’ll want tools that are gentle and sized appropriately for their tiny bodies. Here's what we recommend:

Soft slicker brush – Great for everyday brushing
Stainless steel comb – Gets out knots near ears, armpits, and legs
Dog-safe detangling spray – Helps reduce breakage during brushing
Pet nail grinder – Safer and easier to control than clippers
Hypoallergenic puppy shampoo – Gentle on sensitive skin
Microfiber towels or low-heat dryer – To prevent post-bath matting
Ear wipes – To gently clean floppy ears and prevent infections

🛁 Bath Time Tips for Tiny Teddies

Bathing a Micro Mini Goldendoodle can be adorable and easy if you follow a few tips:

Use lukewarm water and a sink or tub insert with a non-slip mat
Lather with a hypoallergenic, tear-free puppy shampoo
Rinse thoroughly—residue can irritate skin
Dry with a towel or low-heat pet dryer
Brush immediately after drying to prevent matting

Pro tip: Keep it short and sweet. If your pup gets anxious, break it into smaller steps and offer praise and treats.

🐻 The Signature “Teddy Bear” Look

This is the signature style Cedar Doodles are known for—and it’s what makes Micro Mini Goldendoodles turn heads everywhere from local parks to Instagram feeds. If you’re heading to the groomer, ask for:

Rounded face and muzzle
Fluffy, clean ears with light feathering
Tidy feet and sanitary trim
Light shaping on the body, keeping the plush volume

Make sure your groomer knows your pup is a Micro Mini—they'll need a gentler touch and smaller clippers.

💡 Pro Tips for Low-Stress Grooming at Home

Make grooming time fun—pair it with treats, snuggles, or even a little post-groom playtime.
Touch your puppy’s paws, ears, and tail regularly so they’re used to handling.
Keep grooming sessions short and positive, especially in the beginning.
Use puppy-safe products only, especially around the eyes and nose.

At Cedar Doodles, we train all our Micro Mini puppies to enjoy gentle brushing and handling from the start—so they come to you ready to shine.
