When searching for Micro Mini Goldendoodle puppies for sale, you’ll see many breeders claim their puppies are “potty trained.” But what does that actually mean?
“Potty trained” is a term that’s used a lot—sometimes too loosely. At Cedar Doodles, we believe in setting honest, realistic expectations and giving every puppy the foundation they need to succeed in your home. So let’s take a closer look at what potty training really involves—and how our Teddy Bear Micro Mini Goldendoodles are raised with intention, routine, and love from day one.
Some people say their puppy is potty trained because they haven't had accidents that week. Others might mean the puppy goes potty outside most of the time. But true housebreaking goes beyond just "not going in the house."
Real potty training means your puppy understands where to go, when to go, and how to tell you they need to go.
At Cedar Doodles, we give our puppies that early understanding. From the beginning, we use crate training, scheduled feeding, and consistent routines to help each puppy learn the difference between clean and dirty, and develop the ability to hold it until it’s time to go outside.
One of the most important parts of potty training success is maintaining a consistent schedule—especially when it comes to:
Feeding times
Water access
Potty breaks
Play and crate time
A predictable routine teaches your puppy when potty breaks will happen and helps them regulate their bathroom needs. At Cedar Doodles, every puppy is introduced to a daily rhythm that includes regular crate time, food and water scheduling, and monitored potty breaks.
This foundation creates puppies who sleep through the night, wait patiently in their crates, and eliminate on cue—even as young as 8–10 weeks old.
Even though your puppy may be doing great on our schedule, they are not fully potty trained until they’ve transitioned into your home routine. Every environment is new to them—new smells, new people, new rules.
That’s why it’s critical to stick to a consistent schedule when your puppy comes home. Give them predictable routines they can count on. The more structured the transition, the smoother the adjustment—and the fewer accidents you’ll have.
One of the best long-term potty training tools we recommend is bell training. Teaching your puppy to ring a bell by the door to let you know they need to go out gives them a clear way to communicate with you.
Bell training creates:
Fewer accidents
Clear communication
More independence for your puppy
Our puppies are already familiar with the idea of structure, consistency, and communication. With our training foundation in place, most Cedar Doodles families find that bell training is easy to implement—and highly effective.
Not all breeders are the same. A breeder who simply puts down puppy pads and calls it “training” is not setting your puppy—or you—up for success.
At Cedar Doodles, we go beyond the basics. We specialize in Teddy Bear Micro Mini Goldendoodles in the perfect 15–20 lb range, and we raise every puppy as if they were staying with us forever. Our puppies are crate trained, scheduled, and taught to value cleanliness—because we believe luxury is in the details, and love is in the daily routine.
If you're looking for a smart, affectionate puppy who’s already off to a strong start with potty training, a Cedar Doodles Goldendoodle is a perfect match. We do the groundwork so that when your puppy comes home, you're not starting from scratch—you’re simply continuing the journey.
At Cedar Doodles, luxury meets love, and that begins with a well-trained, well-prepared puppy.
