Every puppy in that price range has already been genetically tested, microchipped, and socialized in a family home — not a kennel.

What exactly is a Mini Golden Retriever — is it a real breed?

A Mini Golden Retriever is a purpose-bred cross between a Golden Retriever and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel — this mix is also called a Golden Cavalier and makes up 95% of litters. A smaller share (about 5%) are Golden Retriever x Cocker Spaniel crosses, sometimes called Golden Cockers. Learn more on our what is a mini golden retriever page.

The goal of the cross is a compact dog with the Golden's famous temperament but a more apartment- and family-friendly size. At 25–35 lbs and 14–18 inches tall, they fit comfortably in Tennessee homes of every size. These dogs reach full adult size at just 10–12 months.

Colors range from classic gold and cream to dark gold, red, buff, black, and light gold — giving Tennessee families plenty of variety when choosing their puppy.

What size and temperament should Tennessee buyers expect?

Mini Golden Retrievers typically weigh 25–35 lbs at maturity, though the full range runs 20–50 lbs depending on parentage. For a deeper look at adult dimensions, visit our mini golden retriever size guide. They stand 14–18 inches tall and are fully grown by 10–12 months of age.

In terms of personality, these dogs are affectionate, intelligent, and deeply loyal — traits that make them outstanding with children and adaptable to apartments or large homes alike. Their eagerness to please makes training straightforward, even for first-time dog owners.

With a lifespan of 12–15 years, a Mini Golden Retriever is a long-term family member. That longevity, combined with a calm and playful nature, is a big reason Tennessee families consistently choose this breed.

How does the adoption process work for Tennessee buyers?

To reserve a Mini Golden Retriever puppy, Tennessee buyers place a $300 refundable deposit with Crockett Pups (Greenville, SC — (864) 794-3134).
