Well, I peronally do not have a mini, I have a medium sized Labradoodle (almost 40 lbs) with one amazing temperament. She'll chase the ball like crazy one minute, and the next minute she's snuggling with me on the couch
. I will share with you though that we originally were searching for a mini doodle. I talked to one breeder who does breed the minis and she told me straight up that the minis have the same temperament as other small dogs and not necessarily the same as the medium and large doodles. I do think that's a bit stereotypical but I grew up with a variety of breeds of small dogs so I kind of get what she means. That is when we decided to go with the mediium sized
No offense to anyone with a mini, I think they are darling and equally as sweet, but hopefully someone on here with a mini will chime in and tell you. My daughter's friend has a mini Labradoodle, he's only 5 months old but he is the sweetest little dog ever!! He didn't make a peep when we rang the doorbell and was just sooooo cute and sweet, I instantly fell in love with him! Good luck with your search!
