Our Highwaymen Litter of six Goldendoodles are seven weeks and saw our veterinarian today for their first set of shots! Everyone had a clean bill of health and omgooodness y’all – they were so good and well behaved like our puppies always are! They slept the entire ride there and back! We are so proud of them!
These babies will start going to their furever homes this weekend and we do have availability. We really want our puppies to go home to amazing doodle homes – reach out because we want to place our puppies with the best families and we are always happy so work with you to make that happen! If you are not in Texas or local to us we have a plan for that as well!
Our puppies are using grass turf for pottying and sleeping through the night. Crate training has also already begun. They are used to being handled regularly, bathed, brushed and blow dried and used to having their nails clipped. we do car rides and lots of introductions to noises, people and objects so our puppies are developmentally ready to move to their next phase of their lives.
We look forward to helping you choose your next furry family member! Xoxo
Our Highwaymen litter turned four weeks today! They have had a busy few days. We extended their puppy living area and started them on turf training for potty learning. They also started on mush which is a mix of goats milk, filtered water, and the puppy kibble that we use for all our pregnant, whelping dogs and puppies. Theres a $5 coupon off your first purchase if you use this link: https://tlcpetfood.com/nutrition/pasatiemporanch We also add in NuVet vitamin powder which they’ve been on since in utero. http://www.nuvet.com/668809 Use our code 668809 for 15% off your order!
We have also slowly been adding in toys to the play area which if you’ve been watching our insta stories you’d have seen they absolutely love! Additionally we added the big floofy anxiety pet beds which the pups always love. Nothing is more comfy than a giant squishy bed – we highly recommend those for pups of all ages and sizes.
We do still have availability for this litter – if there is a specific puppy you have your eye on you’ll want to get on our reservation list before it’s too late! We wont have another F1b Goldendoodle litter until 2024.
We love sharing our puppies and dog knowledge – if you have questions regarding our program reach out anytime! We are here for you. Thank you for visiting our page today. Xoxo
Our Highwaymen Litter turned 3 weeks old today. They are walking on all fours, sitting up and everyone has their eyes opened! They will be starting with the potty turf in the next few days and will begin in eating mush by the end of the week. It’s incredible to watch such growth in such a short amount of time.
We can tell who is going to be curly and who is going to be wavy. the puppies weights also indicate who will be bigger and smaller sized of the 6. Please reach out if you’d like more information!
We are always more than happy to chat with you about our program and puppies.
The puppies are growing by leaps and bounds! It is so exciting to be here for the litter planning, birth and then experience each milestone afterwards. Do you know that when puppies are born they are completely blind and deaf?? They depend completely on their mother to care and nurture them. Mother Nature is so amazing how these tiny puppies are able to find their food and warmth without those senses. Incredible isn’t it?
Irishdoodle – light purple collar
We currently have two litters at the same time which is a first for us. It is busy but so much fun. Both mama pups are doing great. We spend lots of time cooking for them and making sure they are comfortable and clean. The whelping boxes are cleaned top to bottom several times a day and the puppies are handled numerous times throughout the day so that they are used to being snuggled and cuddled plus we monitor their weights closely the first month to be sure they are gaining a bit each day.
Penelope & her babies
Speaking of cooking our Mama dogs have kibble available to them at all times; we use TLC brand https://tlcpetfood.com/nutrition/pasatiemporanch/which is what our puppies will eat from the time they start mush. We also make special meals for them altering between beef and chicken plus veggies. They eat yogurt and cottage cheese, have constant access to fresh water and love to drink a few bowls of goats milk each day. We also make a recipe called Mothers Pudding which is a super rich pudding with eggs and milk. Our Mamas love eggs – we feed them hard boiled and scrambled eggs everyday. We do everything we can to ensure they hold a steady weight and are also producing loads of milk so those puppies can grow. Additionally we prepare a type of meatball consisting of hamburger meat, total cereal, oats, eggs and molasses along with a few other ingredients that are served raw. The girls gobble those up and it is the very best way to put or keep a consistent weight on a nursing dog.
Goldendoodle whelping area
The Goldendoodle litter will likely start mush next week during week 3 – we don’t rush things – we like to see how everyone is progressing and determine if they are ready as a whole versus sticking to a strict schedule that might not work from one litter to the next. The little personalities are starting to show and they are precious!
F1b Goldendoodle Puppies
Sunday our Irishdoodles will be two weeks old and some of them are already beginning to open their eyes. They are all gaining weight and growing each day. Their colors are really beginning to shine through and they are beautiful.

We are excited to watch them as they grow up – we just know there are so many families out there waiting to be matched with one of these little cuties! Thank you for following along with us on their journey! Please reach out of you would like to find out about reserving one of these babies. They will be ready to go home in mid April. Xo
It’s with ridiculous excitement that we announce a Calliope Jane x Alfie litter! They turn two weeks old today and could not be more precious. For the first time ever we have four boys in a litter and oh my goodness are they cute! Because of the four we finally are able to take the opportunity to name them after four of the American country music supergroups; Willie, Waylon, Kris & Johnny. Our two girls are named Dolly & June. These six babies are gorgeous and will grow to be standard sized. Their little eyes are just beginning to be open and we cannot wait to share the wonders of the world with them. These next few weeks are crucial to their development and being the key to that puzzle is not something we take lightly.
Highwaymen Litter ~ Two weeks old
These babies are standard sized and their full siblings from last litters typically weigh around 55 pounds. Most of their grown females weigh about 50. Some of these puppies will have a curlier coat while others will have a wavy coat. Each has full face furnishings that we expect from a goldendoodle. These puppies are F1b which means you won’t experience shedding.

We want to share grown puppies from past litters from this combination of Alfie & Calliope Jane so you can get an idea of how your puppy will look when grown!

This beautiful litter of F1b Goldendoodles has arrived! We have six precious little teddybears. We are taking reservations for this litter now. Calliope Jane is doing amazing with them and had a very easy delivery assisted by her human family and a side of moral support from her pink eared daughter Winnie.
Welcome to the world little puppies! You are so loved ❤️ Xoxo
Happy February y’all! We are excited to have such a busy month planned here at Pasatiempo Ranch. We have two litters due this month and a third planned for 2023! we are expecting a repeat litter of F1b Goldendoodles from Calliope Jane & Alfie in one week as well as our first litter from Penelope x Alfie of F1b Irishdoodles! We are so over the moon about the litter patter of the little paws this spring!
Alfie & Calliope Jane
We are also excited to announce a litter of F1 St Berdoodles that will be going home in mid June. We have begun a waitlist for this breeding so please contact us to be added if you are looking for a cuddly bear on your home! These puppies will grow to be 80+ pounds. They are so smart and goofy – their personalities will keep you laughing all day!

We hope your early 2023 weather hasn’t been too much of a challenge. We are happy to answer any questions you may have about adding a puppy to your household! Xoxo
Can you believe we are almost through the first month of 2023?! It’s 4:30 am and I’m writing a quick blogpost because I want to share some of the things we are doing currently in our home and as part of our program that are improving both our lives and the lives of our pets!
We have been extremely lucky this month with our weather which has allowed for a lot of outdoor playtime and training sessions. Personally I (Jenny) prefer quiet indoor sessions with the pups – typically individually but I do recognize that outside distractions are important while training also. We like to do daily training with the pack and each of us do things a bit differently which is good for working a dogs brain because change is tiring and a tired dog is a good dog. Because we have such a plethora of different personalities we do like to mix and match pups so that they learn to work in favor of their differences versus against them. For instance Bernadette our Saint is very good with commands because she is extremely treat and food motivated. I like to pair training with her with one of our more rambunctious (younger) doodles because peer pressure is where it’s at and once they see her get a consistent reward they will copy her technique so that they also get that reward.
Bernadette and Josephine
When people say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks that just simply isn’t true. Our oldest pup in the pack is always ready to learn and he has recently begun some new things like running on a leash – he has never cared for exercise but we think the other pups have motivated him to get up and get going – much like humans do in support style gyms. Again – we find peer pressure is really amazing for dogs.
Winnie – A Groomers Delight
This also works for things like grooming . Winnie is one of our goldendoodles who absolutely loves to be brushed and groomed. She would sit all day and let you comb and brush her out. By having a few others in the grooming area with her who are either very young or who don’t think grooming is a treat they see her and want to emulate her good behavior because they realize there are really high value treats to sitting on the grooming table for an extended period. High value here means licking peanut butter off a wooden spatula or fresh chicken bites that they wouldn’t ordinarily have.
If you have one dog who isn’t too motivated to do new things maybe we can help you with that?! There is always value in a friend for your pup and it might be a good time to add to your pack? We are expecting two litters for Valentine’s Day and these puppies will be spectacular little teddy bears. If you do not currently have a dog or you’ve never had one reach out to us and let us walk you through he steps of being a dog owner. There’s never been a better time to have a four legged friend! There are so many dog friendly stores and restaurants and dogs are the greatest motivator to get out and take walks and enjoy the sunshine and even rain. So many of our pawrents have made new human friends at the park and at pet establishments these past few years – common interests of the love of an animal is a great way to meet others. Plus we don’t want to leave out the most important part of a pup – all the snuggles and a non judgmental pal!
Frances & Ophelia are half sisters. They are a great pairing to train with any energetic pup because both are so laidback and easygoing! They also both like to wear clothes and bows.
We hope you enjoy your weekend. Thank you for stopping by Pasatiempo Ranch today! Xoxo

Today we celebrate the second birthday of our Originals litter which was the best thing to come out of 2020! From that litter we held back two of our most favorite girls Eloise & Frances.
EloiseFrances Originals Litter 2020
Eloise was a beautiful cream colored puppy with a liver nose and light eyes when she was tiny. She is now just a larger sixty pound version of that pup. She has a wavy coat and never sheds. She loves the sofa and cuddling and food. She is definitely a people dog.
Eloise
In complete contrast our gorgeous red girl Frances was the last of that litter born and was not breathing. We spent what seemed like forever trying any life saving measures we could to bring her body to life which finally happened – she is a true miracle baby. Frances is now a fifty pound sweetheart who kept her pretty red color; she has a non shedding coat which is curly like her dads. She looks adorable grown out or with a poodle cut. She loves kisses and hugs. We consider Franny our resident ear expert because she can often be found “grooming” the other dogs ears here at Pasatiempo Ranch. She’s very helpful!
Frances
We are very excited to announce our upcoming repeat litter of Alfie and Calliope Jane which will be born in February 2023! If you are hoping to add a sibling to your home or have always wanted a Alfie/Calliope combo now is your chance to get on our reservation list! They will be ready to go home mid April! Text us for more information: ⬇️
We hope if you have a pup from us you’ll check in from time to time or tag us on instagram! You know we love to see our babies as they progress and grow up.
Thank you for visiting our blog – have an amazing day! Xoxo
