How to See Hearty K9s' Current, Upcoming, and Past Goldendoodle Litters

Updated

Hearty K9s organizes its Goldendoodle puppy information into three sections on its site: Current Goldendoodle Litters ("Today's Puppies"), Upcoming Goldendoodle Litters ("Tomorrow's Puppies"), and Past Goldendoodle Litters ("Yesterday's Puppies"). If you want to know which puppies are available now, which litters you can reserve ahead of time, or what the breeder's previous litters looked like, those three sections are where to look.

What each litter section shows you

Section Site label What it covers
Current Goldendoodle Litters Today's Puppies Litters that are ready to join their forever homes now
Upcoming Goldendoodle Litters Tomorrow's Puppies Future litters available for reservation
Past Goldendoodle Litters Yesterday's Puppies A gallery of previous litters, showing quality and temperament

The site frames these as a timeline: current litters are the puppies waiting today, upcoming litters are the ones you can plan for, and past litters are the record you can review before deciding.

How to work through the three sections

  1. Start with Current Litters. Open the "Today's Puppies" section to see which puppies are described as ready to join a forever home. This is the fastest way to find out whether a puppy is available right now.
  2. Check Upcoming Litters if nothing current fits. The "Tomorrow's Puppies" section is where the site says future litters are available for reservation, so this is the section to watch if you're planning ahead rather than adopting immediately.
  3. Review Past Litters before committing. The "Yesterday's Puppies" gallery shows earlier litters. Use it to judge the consistency of the puppies' quality and temperament over time, not just the current offering.

Each section has its own "Learn More" entry point on the site, so you move from the summary cards into the detail for that litter group.

What to check alongside the litter listings

Because litter availability changes, the litter pages alone don't tell you everything about how a puppy was raised. The site also publishes a puppy program and a quality checklist that describe the breeding and rearing practices behind each litter:

  • Early Neurological Stimulation and Early Scent Introduction
  • A 2-year genetic health and hip guarantee
  • Breeding dogs tested for hip dysplasia, eye diseases, and genetic health
  • Breeding dogs selected for personality, health, and sound temperament
  • First cross and backcross breeding intended to retain a heterozygous gene pool
  • A socialization program preparing puppies to meet the world
  • Progressive training, including teaching puppies to go outside to potty in one area on wood chips
  • Spacious exercise and play areas
  • A process that qualifies prospective owners for a companionship match

Reading the litter section together with these practices gives you a fuller picture than the listing alone.

Common sticking points

  • "Current" doesn't mean unlimited availability. The site describes current litters as puppies ready to join forever homes, but it doesn't state how many are available or how quickly they're claimed. If you see a puppy you want, treat the listing as time-sensitive.
  • Reservations apply to upcoming litters, not current ones. The reservation language on the site is attached to future litters. If you want to plan ahead, that's the section to use.
  • Past litters are a reference, not a catalog. They show the breeder's history and the temperament of earlier puppies; they aren't puppies you can adopt.
  • The site doesn't publish prices or payment details in the material available here. Don't assume cost, deposit terms, or availability from the litter labels alone — confirm those directly with Hearty K9s.

Who this is for

Hearty K9s describes itself as a farming family — Dean and Sonia Nelson — raising Goldendoodles in central Alberta, Canada, just east of Wetaskiwin, and serving families across Alberta. If you're in or moving to that region and want a Goldendoodle, the three litter sections are the intended starting point: current litters for immediate adoption, upcoming litters for reservation, and past litters to assess the breeder's track record before you decide.
