Welcome back to this week’s update at Lamgo Farms! I’m happy you’ve found your way here to see just what is happening with our Farm, Family and our Furry Friends.
Thank you for your patience in waiting for this update. I’m a little behind. There has just been a steady stream of inquiries, emails, and messages that have kept me super busy.
And very excitingly. . .we had a litter of Sheepadoodles today! They are the most beautiful mix of markings! They’re pictured down below in Poppins’ section.
Well, by the time you read this it will be the first official day of fall. Of course, here in Texas we’ll be briefly touching 100 degrees. I’m almost certain I heard the doodles swearing about it today. Our White english Cream Golden Retriever, Bison, took a few steps outside, went potty, walked back up the stairs. . .opened the door with his paw, walked in and laid on the cold floor tile.
The sad truth. . .I could relate. But I chose to line my body with ice packs instead. Well, summer weather or not, my favorite seasons are approaching. Whether the leaves are falling because they’re dying from excessive heat and drought or the seasons are actually gonna change, we will have piles of leaves around the farm to make those three days of actual fall feel authentic.
Clearly I’m still a Colorado gal at heart and my moods are adjusted with the thermostat. Thank you all for riding the emotional waves with me.
Many of you will notice that we do have one Christmas litter coming up. We also have a few more open spots for our extended stay program in our litters going home in November for our families wanting boarding and a continuation of training while simultaneously keeping your puppy until the holidays.
I’ll have more in the upcoming weeks on our extended stay program. Having our new location has opened up more opportunities to board and babysit our puppies as they grow and need someone to look after them during holidays and vacations.
At this time, we only accept our puppies who have gone home.
Speaking of the holiday season. . .I wanted to introduce “Designs by Katherine.” Many of you follow Joey and Darcy, puppies from our past Rosita litter. Their mom has an amazing engraving business and here are just a few samples of what she can do. She has beautiful holiday decor and gift items, personalized cutting boards, name puzzles, Pet collar ID tags as well as one that is close to my heart. . .a memory frame for pets that have passed on. It even has a place for their collar.
We love Joey and Darcy and their parents! You can check out her store HERE.
Once you check out those amazing items on her store, hop back over here and scroll down to see just what is happening in each of your litters!!

What’s Happening Now:
We are at the 2 week mark and Eyes are now opening up!! As soon as all eyes are open, I’ll take individual pictures for you.
This week begins our deworming process and potty training! We give a preventative dewormer every 2 weeks starting at 2 weeks old. This ensures your puppies do not go home with parasites. Usually your vet will continue this process with a monthly chew.
Potty training begins on the potty pad for us. The puppies crawl to the pad to eliminate and then crawl back to the bath rug we use as their bed. As they grow the potty pad is moved farther and farther away until they are going potty outside in their little protected grassy area.
While we’ve been holding and handling each puppy right from birth, this is the week we start our social stimulation. We massage certain points on the puppy as well as hold them on their backs. This has been proven to relax them as well as increase blood flow. This in itself has great health benefits as well as behavioral benefits. It’s amazing that this little routine we started years ago because it seemed so natural is now being adopted by breeders everywhere.
What Happens Next:
Week 3: Video begins this week!!! Yay!!! I’ve found that video along with the pictures each really does help with the selection process. For those first pick of the litter individuals- I recommend starting with your perfect puppy list and begin to rate your favorites as well as having a process of elimination. Are there any you don’t particularly care for? Make these notes to help with clarity the actual picking day as it can be overwhelming.
Rosita typically gives us all shades of red in her litter with mostly wavy coats and a few curly. These puppies mature between 20-30 lbs.
Lilly/Beans F1b Mini Goldendoodles
Lilly has 6 boys and 2 girls- born on Monday, September 12.
Right now we have 3 picking spots available.
What’s Happening Now?
The puppies are now one week old and growing! They are getting chunky already. Right now the puppies are spending most of their time nursing and sleeping. Because their eyes and ears are closed, they use their sense of smell to locate mama for warmth, comfort and nursing.
At this stage the puppies cannot eliminate on their own. Mama must lick them to stimulate elimination. So mama is constantly licking puppies to stimulate elimination and then of course, the clean up. I know that’s all probably a little TMI for some of you. BUT, it’s always good to know just what is happening at each stage of your new baby’s life.
What Happens Next?
Around day 14 we will begin to see those little eyes start to open. The ears open around the same time.Week 2 is a whole new world for a doodle in the fact that they can now hear us and mama and can see!
Week 2 is also a big week because potty training begins this week. Yep. We place a potty pad next to their bed which actually is a nice thick bath rug. Because puppies do not want to eliminate where they sleep, they will crawl to the potty pad and after using it, they will crawl back to the rug. This is how we begin the potty training stage.
Eventually we begin moving that potty pad farther and farther away until they are then using a potty patch which is a little patch of grass. Once we get them use to it, we then let them go outside to potty.
Week 2 is when we will begin individual pictures. I will post pictures each week on our Facebook page and then here on the update. The Facebook pictures will be up first and then I will post here. If you are not on Facebook, please let me know and I can text you pictures.
Poppins/Banks F1 Moyen Sheepadoodles
Poppins delivered 5 girls and 2 boys on Wednesday, September 21. I will be sending out welcome letters on Friday. Right now we do have picking spots available! This litter will go home November 19.
These puppies mature around 45-55 lbs.
Ivy/Burton F1 Mini English
Red and Cream Mini Goldendoodles (1st litter)-
Ivy has 6 boys and 3 girls born on Monday, September 12. Absolutely beautiful babies! I am so excited about these little ones! For those of you who have followed us for a while, you know that it’s been a long time since I’ve had a full litter of F1 english cream doodles. Our Snowflake who is now retired, was our original English cream mama.
Ivy has a red American Golden Retriever mom and a White English Cream Golden Retriever dad. She has all of the beautiful qualities of the English cream but has a wonderful red coat giving us a nice variety of both red and cream doodles!
I have 5 picking spots available in this litter.

Since we did not expect Ivy to deliver such a large litter, we have a number of picking spots available!! Please text me at 817-366-7995 to inquire.
Colors will be all shades of red and some cream or peanut butter colors. These puppies mature between 20-30 lbs and have wavy coats.
Sanjay/Bueller Petite Goldendoodles
Sanjay is expecting! She is due September 23, 2022. Puppies will go home mid to late November. This is a first litter for Bueller who is the son of our own Jasmine and Beans. He is a large Pocket Goldendoodle and has a very dark red soft cotton wavy coat. Sanjay usually delivers pocket puppies but we have paired her with Bueller to give us petites this time around. Lamgo Farms will be keeping the first pick of the litter. Right now we have 2 picking spots available.
Puppies will be all shades of red both wavy and curly coats. They are expected to mature around 13-18 lbs.
I don’t have an ultrasound picture to share as the vet couldn’t grab a good one. But she did confirm pregnancy.
Boston and Paddington’s F2b Mini Goldendoodles
Boston’s pregnancy has been confirmed. She is due to deliver around October 15. Boston’s babies come in a variety of colors from cream to red. Many of the reds do have white markings. The F2b generation will give us mostly wavy coats without shedding. We have had a few curly coats per litter.
Right now I have 3 picking spots available.
This is a Christmas litter! Puppies will go home just before Christmas around December 19.
FAQ:
What breedings do you have coming up? Please scroll back Up for current and upcoming litters (scroll down for more future litters) to the “Next Season’s Breeding Schedule” to see what will be bred and what picking spots are open.
To be placed on our generic list (for instance- red mini’s or cream petites) simply send me an email to info@LamgoFarms.com with your preferences, email address and name and I will put you on our master list. Once we have our line up for that preference- I will place your name on the list. Once breeding begins- we will request your deposit.
How do I know if you have any open picking spots in a particular litter? Scroll until you see your desired litter. Any available picking spots will be listed as “open.”
How do I reserve a picking spot? Please send me an email to Info@LamgoFarms.com outlining your preferences such as size, color, coat type (wavy vs curly), gender, and any special circumstances I need to be made aware of for your situation.
I’ll need your name, email address and phone number. Once you are ready, you can make your deposit payment by choosing the PUPPY DEPOSIT button below. Deposits are non refundable but are moveable from one litter to another.
Are Deposits refundable? Unfortunately, due to the high demand of our puppies, we no longer refund deposits for any reason. If for some reason we do not have enough puppies born to provide for every owner- your deposit can be transferred to your next desired litter. The $250 is a picking spot reservation. This also helps us weed out those who are not serious about taking home one of our puppies.
Do you have any paperwork we need to complete? Since our puppies are Reserved almost a year in advance- we will spend that time getting to know each of you and will be offering the proper education to make sure you are fully prepared to bring home your puppy. When placing a deposit, please include your name, email address, mailing address, phone number and any preferences you may have. Once you place your deposit, I will email you your purchase contract which also serves as your receipt. You will need to sign and email this back to me. You will also receive a suggested supply list as well as our Health Warranty. The Health Warranty is not due back until 30 days after you take your puppy home.
Do you choose the puppy for us or can we choose our own puppy? You will be asked to visit the Farm at your puppy picking appointment and will be given an hour to choose your puppy. The choice is yours. Please understand that we cannot guarantee gender availability. When it comes to our donated therapy/service dogs, we will choose the top two for you and then you can make your choice out of those. Owners unable to attend picking are welcome to choose virtually or by use of the weekly videos.
Can we visit Lamgo Farms for allergy testing or just to see the dogs? Every puppy owner that has placed a deposit is invited to the farm between weeks 5 and 6 for a puppy picking appointment. If unable to attend- we can send extra video and pictures or FaceTime the appointment. Unfortunately- we do not allow other visitors due to the health risk for our puppies and dogs as well as for the safety of our family. If you wish to have allergy testing- it’s best to find a doodle owner and see if you can tolerate that particular generation of doodle. We have several pictures, video as well as slide shows showing our grounds, parents and past puppies. You may also visit our Facebook page and join our open forum to communicate with any of our past owners about their experience with Lamgo Farms. We welcome your questions!
Do you do temperament testing? Yes, all puppies are tested at week 5 and the results are emailed prior to your puppy picking appointment.
Do you take weekly pictures of your puppies? Yes, The first week is simply a group photo but individual pictures are taken weekly starting at week 2. Video is taken weekly starting at week 3 and concludes at week 7.
Are your puppies socialized? Yes! We now have 8 children. Ages 25, 20, 19, 17, 12, 5, 4 and 2 yrs old. We homeschool and are able to hold, socialize using sensory stimulation as well as play with and cuddle your puppy several times a day which prepares them for any home environment.
When do the puppies come home? Puppies are ready to go home on the Saturday between weeks 7 and 8.
Do you have a Health Warranty? Yes, Lamgo Farms has a 1 year warranty over hips and eyes. We also send home a 30 day free enrollment with Trupanion Pet Health insurance.
Do you Health Test your Breeding dogs? All of our parents have had their genetic testing. Some are OFA tested but not all. After consulting an Animal Orthopedic doctor- we learned that these tests do not offer the assurance that puppies will not have hip issues. A good line of breeding stock along with cross breeding and proper care of the puppy will protect and prevent hip issues.
Do you allow boarding after the release date of the puppy? You will be notified within 1 week after the birth as to your picking appointment time as well as puppy pick up date/time/information. This will allow you at least 7 weeks to make pick up arrangements. Pick up is on a Saturday a 11 am. We do sometimes offer a Friday pick up by appointment. Lamgo Farms is closed on Sundays and cannot do picking appointments or pick up appointments at that time.
We do offer an extended stay program that allows your puppy to stay an additional 3 to 4 weeks here at Lamgo Farms. We continue their schedule which includes their potty training, socialization and crate training. Any vaccinations needed during their stay is included with the exception of the Rabies vaccine- this will be given according to your county requirements and an extra charge may apply. The fee for our Extended stay program is $200 per week.
Do you fly puppies out of state? We are able to fly anywhere within the United States. In some circumstances we can also fly to the Territories. At this time we are not flying outside the States. We use a flight nanny to fly in cabin with your puppy from our airport to yours. Prices vary depending on Airline and ticket fees. Right now the price is around $650.

Do you have a Spay/Neuter clause? Yes. All of our puppies are sold with our contract stating all males must be neutered before 5 months old and females must be spayed before 6 months old. We no longer sell for breeding purposes. Breeding a Lamgo Farms’ puppy will result in a fine. We are pro-breeding and we support many other breeders, we just do not sell for that purpose especially for those who intend to breed for hobby of for just the experience of having a litter. Puppies not fixed by the requested time frames will void the Health Warranty.
What sets Lamgo Farms apart from other Goldendoodle breeders? First, having 17 years experience in breeding Goldendoodles- we have learned quite a bit about what to breed to create the perfect doodle for every coat type and personality desired as well as our dedication to each litter.

We care greatly for our puppies, mom and daddy dogs and owners and strive to give that personal touch to every one and puppy that comes our way. We also trust God to give us the perfect puppy you desire. We pray over every breeding and puppy and are genuinely blessed with the ability to raise these fluffy friends.
