1 month old golden retriever puppy
To meet any of our dogs you must first complete our online adoption application on our website. He's beyond handsome, very charming, totally social, loves everyone, and will win you over in minutes. Here's the real question. Can you handle being the second best looking one in the family? Sure, he can't have access outside when no one is home because he can and will jump a 7' fence, but that's not the real issue here. Are you secure enough to handle his good looks? Are you ready to be completely ignored when out in public? Everyone's eyes will drop to your dog and all you'll hear is 'omg, he's amazing! He's so soft! He's so sweet! He's so handsome! Brody will eat it up and you'll eventually have to say, 'OK, so it's getting really late and we've been here for 95 minutes and should probably get going. This handsome boy is probably around years old, and he's great with people and gets along with female dogs who like to play rough. He's got all of the energy that comes along with puppihood, but is smart and food motivated, making him fun to train. He's a Husky in every way, good on a leash, obedience trained, super loving and sweet, and going to make someone very happy to have him in the family! He would do best in a family with Husky experience. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis i. Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems. Considering Brody for adoption? Monty probably aint going nowhere.Thought for minute he might be wolf hybrid. Monty has been with me for 5 years. Night one: I was getting my drank on with a friend. Walked out for a smoke at 2am and BOOM. There's this gigantic dumb dog standing at the door in the pouring rain. Do you think anyone came to claim him? Hell no. Not sure I can say I blame them tbh. Im just trying to be honest with you guys. He either hates you or loves you. We've had one failed attempt after another with meet and greets. Monty doesn't want to be forced to like someone. He wants to do it on his own terms. We've had volunteers that haven't had a single issue with him at all and we've had volunteers who can't take him out of his kennel. Monty loves me, my 7 year old son, my ex husband, my new future husband, and a handful of other people. He responds beautifully with someone who won't bow down to him. You won't find more love, character and devotion than Monty will give you. He has ZERO ill intent towards people whom have been blessed enough to be considered part of his pack. Monty will not be suited for a home with children or one that will have random people walking in and out. Monty would be best suited for a person or couple who both are confident with dogs and don't display anxiety around them- Monty feeds into anxiety. It's like he has to prove a point that he's the boss. He would do great with adopters who are active and like to hike, walk, run or do just about anything. He can often be found at Kankakee State park, Menards and Lowes, because for some reason hell act civilized for fun trips has to be muzzled but he doesn't mind. Monty is not for the weak minded or feeble. Monty isn't a bad dog, he doesn't want to kill anyone. He's just a little twisted and likes to see people squirm. He needs a handler who will say "knock it off" and not let him see them sweat. One who can commit to keeping him in line and safely controlled. FYI he can and will absolutely jump a 4' fence. Doesn't even attempt with 6'. Much as that is to take in, Im sure you've left by now. If not, and you think this level of crazy is just right for you then please give me a call so we can discuss your next biggest mistake! Considering Monty for adoption?
Photo from thepuppyacademy The Doodle craze has resulted in many interesting crosses, from Cavoodles, Maltipoos , and Sheepadoodles to Bernedoodles and Goldendoodles. There are over forty Poodle mixes out there and they all seem to have fun names. Although these names are fun to pronounce, they can also be a bit confusing. The main difference between these three dogs is their genetic make-up. The Goldendoodle is a cross between a Poodle and a Golden Retriever while the Australian Labradoodle is a mix of a Poodle, a Labrador, and a few other dog breeds. When you cross these two pups, you get an Australian Goldendoodle. They all come in different sizes and coat colors. However, Australian Labradoodles tend to conform to a standard set by the Australian Labradoodle Association while the other two crosses are more unpredictable. Australian Goldendoodles and Labradoodles are more likely to inherit the low-shedding coat characteristics since they are multigenerational Doodles. The price range of all three breeds is similar, but Australian Goldendoodles can cost more on average. The F1 Doodles are the first generation pups that came into existence by crossing two different breeds. The F2 or the second generation dogs came from breeding two F1 Doodles, and the F3 mixes are multigenerational. This ensures that the hybrid vigor of the first-generation Goldendoodles and Australian Labradoodles is carried onto their offspring. Backcrossing Australian Goldendoodles is a bit more complicated than with other Poodle mixes since they have the genes of more than two dog breeds. Those crossed with a Golden Retriever or a Labrador Retriever are considered to be different hybrid dogs. Physical Characteristics Of Australian Goldendoodles Australian Goldendoodles come in different sizes, depending on the Poodle genes of their parent breeds. Their height ranges from 17 to 24 inches while their weight can be between 15 and 80 pounds. The reason for this wide range of sizes is the fact that there are Toy, Miniature, and Standard Poodles. Their coats can be curly and wool-textured like Poodles. Pups with this coat type are more allergy-friendly since they shed less. They can also have wavy or straight fleece-textured coats. The hair length depends on their genetic make-up. Goldendoodles tend to have slightly longer hair compared to Australian Labradoodles. Australian Goldendoodles come in a variety of colors, from white, cream, and gold, to apricot, red, or black. Some are of solid color while others have different markings, such as parti, abstract, or phantom. Facial hair is in style, and Australian Goldendoodles are following the trend. Their adorable mustache, known as furnishings, gives them a distinct teddy bear look. The furnishings, alongside their shaggy-looking coats and floppy ears, make these pooches irresistible. They are small- to medium-sized dogs, weighing between 20 and 30 pounds, with a height of 16 to 19 inches. Poodles come in three different sizes; Toy, Miniature, and Standard. The small stature of Mini Doodles comes from the genes of their Miniature Poodle ancestors. The main difference between Mini and other Australian Goldenpoos is their size. They are the same as their larger cousins when it comes to other physical and personality traits. However, they need less exercise since the Miniature Poodle was primarily bred for companionship rather than for hunting like the Standard type. About 30 minutes of exercising a day should be enough to tire out these tiny pups. Do Australian Goldendoodles Shed? Australian Goldendoodles tend to be low-shedders. With the increase of pet allergies in recent times, the demand for pups with low-shedding tendencies is on the rise. Australian Goldenpoos with straight or wavy fleece-textured hair typically shed more than their curly-coated counterparts. However, the shedding can still be managed by proper grooming. Apart from genetics, other factors impact the amount of shedding in dogs as well. If your pup is shedding excessively, it may be due to stress, nutrition, health, or too much bathing. Grooming Requirements The Australian Goldendoodle is a high-maintenance crossbreed. The curly coats that make them shed minimally can easily get tangled or matted, which is why they require regular grooming. The grooming includes brushing and trimming their hair, bathing, teeth brushing, cleaning their ears , and trimming their nails. Their continuously growing hair also needs to be trimmed regularly. Most owners take their pups to a professional groomer every six to eight weeks. Be sure to use a gentle dog shampoo since some bathing products can cause excessive shedding. You can inspect their ears weekly and use a soft cotton ball to gently clean them. Their teeth also need to be brushed once a week to prevent tartar build-up and gum disease. Their nails should be clipped once a month unless they naturally wear down. The Australian Goldendoodle is an affectionate, loving dog that loves to spend time with its owner. They are great family pets as they get along with other animals and children. Australian Goldendoodles can easily be trained for a variety of tasks due to their high intelligence. In fact, their Labradoodle parents were first created to be guide dogs for people with pet allergies. Many of these sweet-natured pups also work as therapy dogs, bringing happiness and comfort to people in hospitals and retirement homes. Australian Goldenpoos are very energetic and playful as well. Exercise Needs Australian Goldendoodles are active dogs. Making sure that your dog gets enough exercise and mental stimulation can prevent weight problems and behavioral issues. It also reduces the possibility of injuries as it strengthens their muscles. Puppies learn about the world through play, but it also helps build your relationship. As your puppy grows up , you can start taking it out for long walks or let it join you for a run. Australian Goldenpoos love being outside, so going for a hike once in a while is a great way to spend some quality time with your pooch. They also do great with different dog sports, such as dog agility or flyball. These sports would be fun hobbies to share with your pup. Positive reinforcement is always the best training method regardless of the breed. Your puppies will happily learn any new trick when you give them enough treats, praise, or tummy rubs. House training means letting the dog know what your house rules are. Puppies love to chew, so surrounding them with toys could help save your shoes. Another essential part of dog ownership is socialization. Although Australian Goldendoodles are friendly by nature, they still need to be socialized. What you need to do is bring your pup around with you to meet different people, dogs, and other animals. Smaller dogs generally have a longer life expectancy. They typically live between 12 and 16 years. These mixed-breed pooches are generally healthy dogs, but there are some health problems they can inherit from their parents. We pride ourselves on the way we raise our Puppies. We treat the Labradoodle puppies with care and give them lots of love so that they will be fun and social pets. Our goal is to make it easy to transition them from our loving home to yours. Thanks for visiting Southern Doodles. We currently have available spots on our puppy list!!

At Southern Doodlin' we are deciding to slow down our business after many years of providing loving puppies for homes acress the country. This is a pretty typical range for doodle mixes.

They have been described as playful, loving, gentle, intelligent, and eager to please. Are These Dogs Good for Families? Your breeder or adoption organization should be able to advise you on whether they think an individual dog would be a good match for a home with kids. According to Australian Goldendoodle breeders, these dogs are great around other pets. It can be difficult for resident cats and dogs to accept a new family member at first, so go slowly to make the transition as stress-free as possible for everyone. Again, speak to your breeder or adoption organization about whether specific matches would be a good idea. There are a multitude of complete and balanced options for dogs, some suitable for all sizes and some formulated specifically for small, medium, large, and giant breeds. There are also options that target certain areas of health, like, for example, weight management, joint function, and urinary health. Fun physical activities for the easy-to-please Australian Goldendoodle include a few daily walks, fetch, chase, agility training, and games like frisbee, tug-of-war, and fetch. Some may also enjoy swimming, but not every dog does. Australian Goldendoodles are, by and large, considered to be highly trainable and eager to please, so they should respond well to short training sessions daily with a consistent leader who provides positive reinforcement praise, treats, etc. Patience, consistency, and kindness are especially important for adult rescue dogs. A post shared by Simin pet. On the other hand, if the Poodle genes are stronger, a curly or wavy coat is more likely. If your Australian Goldendoodle has a coat similar to a Golden Retriever, the rate of shedding may be higher than that of a wavy or curly-coated Australian Goldendoodle. It really depends on the genetics. Poodle-type coats are especially prone to these problems, especially around the neck and tail base, so be sure to focus on these areas. Regular nail trimming is another essential part of grooming, as too-long nails can quickly become sore. If you do this yourself at home, avoid the quick, which is the pinkish part of the nail. Cutting into this will be very painful, so keep the clippers only on the ends. According to PetMD, the following conditions are ones to watch out for in Goldendoodles. Note that the PetMD post is about Goldendoodles, not Australian Goldendoodles specifically, but Australian Goldendoodles might be susceptible to some of the same conditions since they share Goldendoodle parentage. Minor Conditions Mild allergy symptoms that receive treatment Minor, occasional stomach upset. Photo from kuechly. However, we can still look at the disposition of the parents that were used to create them since they will most probably influence how the Australian Goldendoodle behaves. Puppies with a more dominant Australian Labradoodle genetic makeup manifest the following: They are very loyal to their owners. They are happy-go-lucky dogs. They are curious and active when it comes to a number of activities. They get along well with small children and other animals when they are socialized early. They are sometimes tricky and clever. They show so much affection to their family, which means that they can even be therapy dogs. If your Australian Goldendoodle has a dominant English Goldendoodle gene, they will most probably exhibit the following traits: They are perfect for novice pet owners since they are very adaptable. They are easygoing and they are easy to train. They love pleasing their owner as well as other people. They do not like being alone for a long time because they become destructive. They are affectionate to practically everyone. Again, all these traits are seen on Australian Goldendoodles only when they are given proper training or socialization. Ensure that right after bringing them home, you start a suitable training program for them to thrive inside your household. But who knows, maybe your puppy can outlive even the oldest dog alive! Make sure that they are properly taken care of by providing their basic and most essential needs. Also, bring them to a trusted veterinarian if you notice something different about them. This may be a sign of certain diseases and should be prevented immediately so they can live a longer life. Here are the common health issues of Australian Goldendoodles that you should watch out for: Hip Dysplasia: This developmental disease is found in most dogs, not only in Australian Goldendoodles. Cataracts: You can identify that your dog has cataracts when their eyes become opaque, leading to blocked vision and eventually complete blindness. Patellar Luxation: There are instances where the patella of a dog dislocates and causes difficulty in extending the knee joint. This can lead to lameness if not treated early. Some of the signs of this disease are vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, increased urination, and shaking episodes. The area under the aortic valve narrows, affecting the blood flow and leads to breathing difficulty, fainting, or in extreme cases, death. Photo from miss. To take care of them, consider my tips and advice below. But remember that the nutritional need of each dog varies depending on its size. You should have them weighed by a veterinarian and ask for advice regarding what they are allowed to eat. Generally, Australian Goldendoodles can be fed commercial dog food and homemade food. Since they are hybrids, you should choose nutritious food and feed them three to four times a day. Again, this will still depend on what the vet will advise. In terms of homemade diet plans, there are many recipes you can watch and copy on youtube that will provide the energy requirements of your dog. Training and Exercise It might surprise you that Australian Goldendoodles are intelligent hybrids. They can easily pick up simple tricks because they are extreme people pleasers. In terms of their exercise needs, they love highly stimulating environments since they are energetic and active. Besides, they can also play some water games thanks to their Poodle gene. They can live in both rural and urban areas as long as there is enough space for them to run and play. Cleaning and Grooming Many pet owners these days are able to clean and groom their own pets. They rarely bring their Australian Goldendoodles to a professional groomer because they have studied and succeeded in doing everything that needs to be done in just a home setup. I highly applaud these types of owners, but I still would suggest bringing your dog to the vet a couple of times a year since there are some little details about pet grooming that you may have missed. Generally, Australian Goldendoodles need brushing several times a week using a slicker brush to prevent mats and tangles. They would also need to be trimmed every eight weeks for them to look more presentable. The fur around their eyes, ears, and footpads should be the priority because these areas help them to function well. Aside from these, their ears should be monitored for possible infections especially if they love to swim. Teeth cleaning is also necessary to avoid any dental-related diseases. How Much Is an Australian Goldendoodle? Aside from these initial expenses, there are some items that you need to buy in order to take care of your Australian Goldendoodle. They are presented in the table below along with their individual cost. Type of Expense. Our sister site Dogsnet has also has expert-led courses for new puppy parents right through to adult dogs. Exercise Australian Goldendoodles are active dogs who need at least two hours of exercise every single day when they are fully grown. This could include hiking, joining you for a run, swimming and water retrieves, or dog sports such as agility training or dock diving. Mini Australian Goldendoodles need to spend the same amount of time being physically active. But they may struggle to keep up with pursuits like running or cycling. A large, secure yard is helpful for giving this breed room to play and let off steam. Australian Goldendoodle Health and Care The health problems most likely to affect Australian Goldendoodles are: Ear infections Allergies, eczema, and autoimmune skin conditions Joint problems including hip and elbow dysplasia The neurological condition degenerative myelopathy Thyroid disease To protect each new generation of puppies, breeding dogs should be as healthy as possible. The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals recommends testing potential breeding Australian Labradoodles for: Hip dysplasia Eye diseases including Progressive Retinal Atrophy Exercise Induced Collapse Goldendoodles ought to be tested for: Hip dysplasia Eye diseases Heart disease Good breeders will be able to provide copies of the results of all these tests. Shedding coats need regular brushing to remove dirt, debris and dead hair. Twice a year it will shed more heavily than usual and change texture to adjust to the seasons. At these times, you might like to use a deshedding tool to speed the process up. Non shedding coats also need frequent brushing, plus regular trips to the groomer for clipping. Australian Goldendoodles are prone to ear infections because their ears trap warmth and moisture. This creates ideal breeding conditions for bacteria and fungi. So keeping their ears clean and dry should also form a regular part of your routine. Are Australian Goldendoodles Good Pets? Australian Goldendoodles can be great pets for the right people. They do best in active households, with people who enjoy spending plenty of time outdoors. Their behavior is also likely to be more settled if someone or a mix of people can keep them company most of the time. Due to their size and playfulness, standard Australian Goldendoodles are difficult to keep in an apartment. But a Mini Australian Goldendoodle might adapt, provided you take them out for plenty of regular exercise. Most of the dogs which contribute to the Australian Goldendoodle are described as being good with children and other pets. However, they need lots of attention in their own right, so raising one from a puppy at the same time as a young family can be extremely challenging! Australian Goldendoodle puppies are well suited to households with older children and teenagers. Especially ones who are willing to help with playtime and providing all the mental and physical stimulation this mix needs. Younger children should always be supervised with any kind of dog.

However, Aussiedoodles are a mix between an Australian Shepherd and a Poodle. They are not to be confused with a standard Labradoodle. There are quite a few differences worth pointing out. Although Poodles have been mixed with other breeds for decades, if not centuries, the Labradoodle is credited as the first official Doodle breed. In , Wally Conron, a dog breeder who worked for the Victoria Royal Guide Dog Association of Australia, created the first Labradoodle to provide a hypoallergenic service dog. This cross-breed came from a letter he received from a man in Hawaii who needed a guide dog but was sensitive to dog allergens. The success of this Labradoodle guide dog caught the interest of many. Standard Labradoodles have grown in popularity ever since. The Australian Labradoodle is a direct descendant of the standard Labradoodle. The intent behind this selective breeding was to create more consistent litters in regards to coat type, traits, size, and temperament [1] alaa-labradoodles. Due to the advocacy of breed clubs like the Australian Labradoodle Association of America, Australian Labradoodles now have entirely predictable traits, with the breed standard established in .The Australian Labradoodle is still considered a mixed-breed dog, but breeders hope that they can one day be distinguished as its own breed.

The mix has yet to receive much attention, but the data shows it is trending upward. The graph below shows the relative search volume of Australian Labradoodles and Australian Goldendoodles worldwide. It is clear that Australian Labradoodles are more popular than Australian Goldendoodles. However, this trend can change in no time! These two hybrid breeds are a result of four different parent breeds. Poodle Poodle Poodles are a breed of water dog that originated in Germany. They were bred to be water-fowl hunters and retrievers. They are intelligent dogs that have high energy levels and are athletic. This is why they eventually became famous as circus dogs in 19th-century France. There are three varieties of Poodle, which differ by size: Toy, Miniature, and Standard. The standard Poodle is the largest, while the Toy Poodle is the smallest. This is the main reason Doodle breeders mix them with other purebred dogs. Poodles do not shed as often as other breeds, and the curly nature of their coat traps dander. However, they require quite a bit of grooming to prevent the matting of their fur. They come in various colors: black, white, gray, fawn, brown, blue, red parti, and a few others. Their temperament was the main reason breeders chose them for Australian Labradoodle breeding. Cocker Spaniels are social and people orientated. In addition, they are not as energetic as the other dog breeds. This makes them calmer and more suitable for families. Cocker Spaniels come in a variety of colors, including mixtures of colors as well. English Cocker Spaniel vs. However, when the breed was brought over to America, it was bred differently to be able to hunt American woodcock. Thus, the breeds differ, given their different physical characteristics and instincts. American Cocker Spaniels are smaller in size. They have a shorter muzzle and back with a dome-shaped head. The English Spaniel is taller and has a narrower head and chest. In their native countries, they are simply called Cocker Spaniels. Similarities between the two include the signature long ears and thick wavy fur. Labrador Retriever Labrador Retriever The Labrador Retriever is a famous British gun dog breed, one of the most popular choices for families in the western world. In addition to being playful, loyal, and obedient, Labrador Retrievers are the dog of choice for service or guide dogs. Their coats are short and water-proof but tend to shed a lot. Their addition as parent breeds for the Australian Labradoodle is because they were the original service dogs that breeders wanted to adapt for people with allergies. This breed results from a cross between an English Golden Retriever and Poodle. They have a few slight differences from a standard Goldendoodle , most of which are based on coloring and body shape. The size of an English Goldendoodle depends on the Poodle parent and can vary widely. Due to its size, the Mini English Goldendoodle sees more demand across households. The English Goldendoodle usually retains the social characteristics of a Golden Retriever and the intelligence and coat of a Poodle. Due to their light color, they are sometimes called English Cream Golden Retrievers. English Golden Retrievers have a very light cream-colored coat that almost seems white. American Golden Retrievers are never that light in color. Furthermore, English Golden Retrievers tend to be slightly larger than their American counterparts. Both these dogs are brilliant and highly energetic. They require lots of activity and attention. They make great family dogs and are easy to train. Where did the English Golden Retriever come from? Since the English Golden Retriever is not a separate breed, it shares the same history as the standard Golden Retriever. Lord Tweedmouth is credited as the founder of the Golden Retriever breed. At the time, hunting was becoming a very popular sport in both Scotland and England. Golden Retriever This particular mix was bred with the intent to aid hunters in the retrieval of waterfowl and upland hunting. Upland hunting refers to the hunting of upland game, which are non-waterfowl birds such as pheasants, quail, grouse, etc. Their sweet-temperament intelligence makes them a great choice to be used as a service dog, guide dog, or therapy dog.

Life Span Did You Know? The Boxer is one of the most popular dog breeds in the United States. It has been recognized by the AKC since .Although the Boxer dog breed originated in Germany, their ancient ancestry can be traced back to the Assyrian empire war dogs of BC. The modern Boxer breed we know and love today was originally developed in Germany in the late s. English-bred Bulldogs and the Bullenbesiier were crossed to create an energetic and agile hunting dog to chase wild game. The Boxer is a popular family companion and a versatile working dog. As a member of the Working Group, Boxers can be found competing in dog sports like agility, obedience, and herding.

They can be prone to barking a lot if you do not work on socialization and training your dog to stop barking early on. Boxers can be highly adaptable dogs.

A brush-down once or twice a week and the occasional bath as needed will keep their short coat healthy and looking great. Nail trims once or twice a month are usually enough to keep nails from growing too long. Checking ears weekly and carefully cleaning as needed can help prevent ear infections. Checking and wiping their facial wrinkles weekly or a few times a week if your dog is prone to getting into things can help keep their wrinkles clean and free of irritation. Dental diseases, like gum disease, are the most common health issues in older dogs because dental care is often overlooked; and, it can lead to other serious health issues.

Breeders VS. The sad truth is that many pet store purchased pups actually come from puppy mills. Basically, there is zero authenticity with pet stores. When it comes to adopting any animal from a pet store, there is an increased risk of unforeseen health or genetic problems. You also cultivate a life-long relationship with the breeder, meaning support is available to you anytime you may need it. With My Golden Retriever Puppies , you have the option to come and visit both the puppy and the breeder in person! Golden Retrievers are an adaptable breed, meaning they are better at adapting to seasonal changes and various types of climate than certain other breeds. Goldens sport a double-coat, which ensures that these sweet pups are able to tolerate slightly colder temperatures than their friends from other breeds. Your pup deserves better than that, which is why here at My Golden Retriever Puppies , we ensure high-quality care is taken of your pet at all times. For more about the true price of a golden retriever puppy, you can read our full price breakdown here. Location Information for Illinois Customers Our home office is located in Ohio, but we understand that long-distance travel can be inconvenient. If you prefer to meet a breeder in person, they may be able to offer private visits at their home. Of course! Here at My Golden Retriever Puppies , we value family and authenticity, which is why we always guarantee our pups through our 2-year genetic health guarantee. Like adopting a Golden Retriever from a pet store, there is an increased risk when adopting a pup from a rescue center or shelter as well. For example, pups purchased through a shelter or rescue center are far less likely to come with the kinds of health guarantees and reassurances that a breeder can provide. What type of Golden Retrievers are sold in Illinois? We have some good news! Ready to make your Golden Retriever dreams come true? Take a look at our convenient list of available puppies.

We are a veterinarian and veterinary technician owned and operated kennel located near Athens, Georgia. Our parents dogs have been carefully selected, tested and loved. Our parents were selected with a primary focus on physical and mental health. They have been tested for physical attributes as well as trainablilty and socially appropriate behavior. Our babies are all very beautiful, however beauty was our secondary focus. The parent dogs and their babies are seen daily by a veterinarian and a veterinary technician and are meticulously monitored both physically and psychologically. All of our wonderful dogs get plenty of play time and belly rubs. They also receive training on, at least, a weekly basis. The parent dogs have been raised on property with a lake, two creeks and several acres to swim and run. They have two human brothers that swim and play ball with them. These activities insure that the parent dogs and their babies are well socialized. Our gorgeous puppies are born in the hospital. Mom and babies remain in the hospital under the intense but loving eyes of their veterinarian for several days and possibly a couple of weeks until they can safely be moved home. We feel that this form of intensive care of both mother and babies gives our puppies a healthier start. Every breed has its unique list of problems. Hybrid dogs, such as Goldendoodles, Bernedoodles, and minidoodles are the result of crossbreeding that reduces the risk of genetic abnormalities or problems. All of our dogs have been evaluated for several common genetic abnormalities that occur in many breeds of dogs. The screening includes hip, elbow, heart and eye certification. It also includes a test for blood diseases that can be present in some dogs at birth. The dogs receive daily evaluations by their veterinarian but also visit specialists in each of these areas. The crossbreeding of Poodles to Goldendoodles and Bernese Mountain Dogs also helps to increase the healthier genes present in both breeds of dogs. The cross breeding is also responsible for the unique coat textures and colors present in our puppies. The meticulously careful breeding practices of Hardland Kennels allow us to give you a puppy that is as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside!

So we usually have a good selection of very high quality puppies. View Our Available Puppies! Not all mini Goldendoodles are equal, there are a few different versions to choose from each having a little different genetic background based on the pups parents. We will explain all the differences in Mini Goldendoodle puppies and how they are bred below. We raise all versions of the mini goldendoodle breed. F1 Mini Goldendoodle Pups. A F1 puppy is also known as a First Generation puppy. The puppies mother is a Golden Retriever and the pups dad is a Mini Poodle. This version of mini goldendoodle usually has soft wavy or curly puppy fur. They will shed until they lose their puppy fur, after shedding they will shed a lot less, but will shed. This version is partially hypoallergenic and usually requires low maintenance. F1 mini goldendoodles usually need to be groomed every 6 months along with daily brushing to keep their curly hair from matting and getting tangled. The dogs usually grow up having great temperaments similar to golden retrievers. They usually get about inches high at the shoulder and range in weight from pounds. F1b Mini Goldendoodle Pups. An F1b is known as a second-generation mini goldendoodle with the pups mother being already an F1 Goldendoodle and the pups dad being a mini poodle also. So the difference between F1 and F1b is that the mom is not a golden retriever but an actual F1 Goldendoodle. They also have very soft curly hair but with almost no shedding. This F1b version is semi-hypoallergenic and a better choice for anyone who has pet allergies. The F1b also should be brushed on a daily basis but will need to be groomed more frequently then a F1. A 6 to 8 week grooming schedule is recommended to keep their coat in perfect condition. F1b Mini goldendoodles get around 18 to 20 inches tall at the shoulders and range between pounds in weight. F1bb Mini Goldendoodle Pups. An F1bb goldendoodle is also known as a third-generation mini goldendoodle. This mini goldendoodle version has a coat more similar to a poodle than of a golden retriever. This is because the pup is more of a poodle than a retriever. Making it the very best version for anyone with pet allergies. A 6 to 8 week grooming schedule is required to help prevent knots or matting. This version is super intelligent and loving, and usually seems to have more energy than the other versions of Mini goldendoodles. This version is usually smaller in size, weighing around pounds and only getting inches tall at the shoulders. The smaller size makes them a great size for smaller homes and apartments.

Issue a written bill of sale Reputable breeders offer written bills of sale to all of their new Pug parents. This bill of sale should be signed and will outline all the roles and responsibilities to be taken on by the buyer and seller as part of the transaction.

Reputable breeders welcome prospective parents into their homes to see the puppies. Follow age guidelines Puppies should never leave the litter before 8 weeks of age.

Also called Yoodle, Yorkapoo, Yorkerpoo, Yorkiepoopoo, and Yorkiedoodle, the Yorkie Poo has the heart of a true companion and the pedigree of a showman. They are quite popular among those seeking a small, highly hypoallergenic best friend. Yorkie Poos are very confident and can do well in shows and competitions with appropriate training. They make great family companions and fun little friends. Temperament Yorkie Poos enjoy being active. They are friendly to all and loving with their families. They are curious and intelligent, and they respond well to training and positive reinforcement. Their confidence can get them in trouble with other dogs sometimes. They forget their true size because they see themselves as much bigger dogs than they actually are. Early training and socialization will help them handle this and all kinds of situations. This breed is highly intelligent because mental acuity runs in both parent breeds. They are able to learn new concepts very quickly, and they follow directions very well. They have a charming appearance and a lively, social personality to match. Yorkie Poos that favor their Poodle parents can have large tufts of hair hanging from their limbs. Yorkie Poos that favor the Yorkshire Terrier genes tend to have multi-colored coats. Because our Yorkie Poos have no undercoat, they are considered hypoallergenic and can be an ideal fit for those with allergies. The smaller to medium size and its silky, soft coat are two features that are consistent in Yorkie Poos regardless of their parentage. Coats will vary in length, and they can be one of several colors: Black. This little dog is much willing to approach people and be held by them. They are highly energetic and are in motion most of the times. They are good with children, specially grown up kids. Toddlers might not be safe with them because of their highly active nature. They love taking part in family activities and make a great family pet and apartment dog. They can adapt themselves to almost any situation or living. They are curious and would search for new things around. They are extremely sociable and are good to strangers too. Yorkiepoos are frequent barkers, making them good watchdogs. They also tend to shout and are prone to destroy things especially when they are bored or are left alone for long periods of time. Just a little bit of brisk walk around your block every day should serve the purpose. Also, allow your Yorkie-poo to play around with a ball or a toy in an enclosed yard, if you have one. The playful dog would be happy to play and exercise. Grooming The grooming needs depend on the type of coat your dog has. However, Yorkiepoos mostly need regular or even everyday brushing. Curlier the coat, more frequent should be the grooming; else its coat will get matted very easily. If its coat is too curly like its poodle parent , trim the coat every one to two months. You can take your dog to a professional groomer if you are not an expert in grooming. Also, keep an eye on the ears for possible infection and the teeth clean to avoid tartar buildup. Clip the nails as and when required. Health Problems Yorkiepoo is a typically healthy hybrid. Being a very new breed of dogs, very little is known about any breed specific health issues, except being prone to periodontal diseases like most other small size dogs. Other possible general dog health issues can be dysplasia, epilepsy, hypoglycemia particularly for puppies , musculoskeletal problems, and eye problems such as distichia and cataracts. Those that are underweight or less than 3 pounds might be prone to vomiting, tracheal collapse, diarrhea, anesthesia sensitivity, and frequent injuries. Training Teach your puppy to socialize while it is still very young. Mental stimulation and social interaction are important for your pup to keep them mentally and physically fit. Ask friends and relatives to visit your house often and get them acquainted with your little one. Your dog loves activities like tricks, dog agility, etc. Obedience training is important for these little barkers. Also, set your own rules to resolve pack leader issues.

If you opt for dry kibbles, be sure you choose the type that is meant for the dogs of their size and energy level. In fact, dry food is better for this breed over raw or cooked foods because, with everyday wet food, these dogs have a great potential in developing bad breath, gum disease, and tooth loss.

Originally bred as a hypoallergenic companion for allergy sufferers, the Yorkipoo inherits the intelligence of both the Yorkshire Terrier and Poodle breeds. Like his parent breeds, he thrives in performance competitions such as agility and obedience. Sporting a low-dander, low-shedding coat and the compact size of a toy breed, the Yorkipoo fits well in various households, even as a wonderful companion for seniors. His gentle and affectionate demeanor has also led him to success as a therapy dog. However, due to his small stature, caution is advised when introducing him to larger dogs to prevent accidents. Training the Yorkipoo is rewarding, as he is a quick learner. While he can be stubborn, positive and enjoyable training sessions work best, as harsh methods can be detrimental to his well-being. He takes pride in his alert barking, making him a reliable watchdog. While some Yorkipoos can be trained to limit barking, others may be more vocal. When the Yorkipoo mix is successful, he combines the best traits of both parent breeds — the intelligence and spirit of the Poodle and the bold terrier nature of the Yorkie. While multigenerational breeding has grown, many Yorkipoos result from first-generation unions of purebred parents.

Yorkipoo History The Yorkipoo, a charming and endearing hybrid breed, traces its roots back to the deliberate crossing of two distinct and beloved purebred parents: the Yorkshire Terrier and the Toy or Miniature Poodle. While the Yorkipoo may seem like a modern creation, its history is relatively recent, spanning just a few decades. The emergence of the Yorkipoo can be attributed to the growing interest in designer breeds that combine the best traits of their parent breeds. This particular blend aimed to create a smaller-sized dog with a hypoallergenic coat, addressing the needs of allergy sufferers while also striving to minimize the genetic health issues that have plagued Yorkshire Terriers and Poodles due to poor breeding practices. By combining the intelligence and elegance of the Poodle with the bold terrier characteristics of the Yorkshire Terrier, breeders sought to create a well-rounded companion with a desirable temperament. Initially, most Yorkipoo litters were the result of first-generation breeding, which aimed to capitalize on the strengths of both parent breeds. Yorkipoo Size The Yorkipoo, with its endearing and compact stature, is a small-sized breed that perfectly embodies the charm of a true lap dog. Generally falling within the toy breed category, the Yorkipoo is often a result of crossing the petite Yorkshire Terrier with the diminutive Toy or Miniature Poodle. As a result, these delightful dogs typically stand at a modest height of around 7 to 10 inches 18 to 25 cm at the shoulder, making them ideal companions for various living environments, including apartments and smaller homes. Their lightweight build further adds to their appeal, with adult Yorkipoos often weighing between 4 to 15 pounds 2 to 7 kg. Despite their small size, these pint-sized pups are renowned for their energy and vivacity, which allows them to partake in various activities with enthusiasm. This low-shedding quality makes them an attractive choice for individuals with allergies, as their reduced dander and shedding help minimize allergic reactions. Their small size, combined with a coat that requires regular grooming to maintain its silky texture, culminates in a delightful and manageable package that seamlessly integrates into a variety of households, leaving a big impression with their captivating personality and charming presence. Yorkipoo Personality The Yorkipoo embodies an active, affectionate, and fun-loving spirit that thrives in human companionship. This loyal and loving companion eagerly joins in family activities, exuding confidence from its terrier heritage while maintaining an easygoing and undemanding demeanor. Its intelligence shines through in its ability to become an excellent companion through consistent and positive training, adapting well to various situations. Puppies with favorable temperaments display curiosity and playfulness, approaching and interacting with people willingly. Opting for a balanced puppy, neither excessively dominant nor timid, is wise. Meeting at least one parent, usually the mother, and observing interactions with other relatives helps gauge the potential personality of the puppy. Enrolling the puppy in a puppy kindergarten class and regularly introducing it to diverse environments, people, and experiences, such as parks, stores, and strolls, helps refine its social skills. By providing a nurturing and stimulating environment, the Yorkipoo can grow into a delightful, adaptable canine companion. You can verify these clearances by checking the OFA website offa.

Due to his small size, outdoor living is not suitable, making indoor living essential for both his physical and emotional well-being. Daily exercise is key to his contentment, as he possesses unexpected energy levels. A daily stroll or playtime in the yard will suffice to maintain his health and happiness. Engaging in activities like hallway fetch can also help him expend excess energy. A crate can serve as a cozy retreat for naps as well. Starting crate training early enables your Yorkipoo to adapt to confinement, which proves useful for boarding or hospitalization scenarios.

An older, more considerate child can often enjoy a rewarding companionship with a Yorkipoo.

GSDs have a medium-length coat that consists of two layers: an undercoat and an outer coat. The undercoat is the one closest to their skin. This fuzzy layer is thick with fluffy hairs that are relatively short, measuring less than two inches on average. It serves one primary purpose: to keep the dog comfy and cozy all winter long. Then, you have the outer top coat. It comes in three different lengths: short, medium, and long. Even though GSDs shed non-stop all year long, there are two times during the year when their shedding becomes excessive.

The coat colors are generally black, black and tan, red and black, sable and grey. Breeders prefer darker, richer colors and many light colorations are not accepted by the breed standard.

You can also check out our YouTube video here… Short vs. Medium vs. On the other hand, long-haired types have a topcoat with hair length going beyond 2 inches. This creates a significant enough difference in appearance. Short-haired German Shepherds have a short, dense topcoat, and the fur will be straight, rough, and lie close. In contrast, long stock coats have longer fur, which is softer, and not close fitting, with feathering on the ears and legs. The hair appears shiny and is longer and thicker on the neck, forming a mane. However, the sleekness of their topcoat alongside the absence of an undercoat can also make them look more fox-like. On the other hand, a short-haired German Shepherd has the classic German Shepherd look because shorter coats set the breed standard. Consequently, your idea of the breed is the same as the short coat. Coat Type While long coat German Shepherds are closer to their wolf ancestors in terms of their fur length, the short stock coats are closer in terms of coat quantity. Wolves have double coats, as do short-haired German Shepherds. They are referred to as being open-coated. Working line German Shepherds have to be compact and agile. Even harsher is the judgment from the show crowd. The missing undercoat gets long-haired German Shepherd disqualified from most dog shows, and their entire category is labeled a fault by the American Kennel Club. Long-haired German Shepherds are not bigger than the short-haired variety. Although their long silky fur and thick mane may make them look bigger, they are the same size as all other types. Males are inches tall and weigh lbs, and females are inches tall and weigh lbs. But does any particular type shed more? Long-haired German Shepherds do not shed more than short-haired types, although the rate of shedding varies throughout the year among short-haired GSDs. That is because their undercoat is the source of a significant amount of shedding, and it sheds more during the spring and fall seasons. Long-coated dogs usually have only the topcoat, which sheds at an even rate all year round. However, if a long-haired German Shepherd has a double coat very rare , then his shedding rate will also vary throughout the year. Work Acceptability Both long-haired and short-haired German Shepherds make good family dogs. However, when it comes to taking puppies in as canine labor prospects, almost all the long-haired types are left out. Show Ring Acceptability If you think working line criteria are harsh, wait till you see how the show ring treats long-haired German Shepherds. Both types are seen as visually appealing by different people, but after all, beauty is subjective. But if beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder, then the show ring judges seem to be entirely blind when it comes to long-haired German Shepherds. They are not only seen as faulty because the missing undercoat disqualifies them from the show ring, but even double-coated long-haired ones get judged critically upon making it to the show ring. Nonetheless, this has a pleasant side effect. The lack of show ring acceptability ensures that those buying long-haired German Shepherds are not doing so in hopes of show circuit glory or rewards; they are doing so out of love. Long-haired German Shepherds are not less aggressive or calmer than the short-haired variety. There is no difference between the two. However, they are known to have a slightly friendlier temperament due to not having a strong working drive, as most working lines are short-haired. As far as aggression is concerned, there is often a misconception that German Shepherds are aggressive due to their appearance and resemblance to wolves. However, with proper training and early socialization , they are a friendly and affectionate breed. Cost Short-haired German Shepherds cost more than long-haired ones because they are more versatile and widely accepted. They have higher chances of qualifying in the show ring, so most show-line German Shepherd breeding is done with short hair in mind. They are also used as working lines. Such a dog is sold cheaper. Such a deal would be absurd for a short-haired type. For most breeders, the answer is a short-haired GSD. Coat variation is governed by gene variants. Long hair is a recessive trait which means both alleles gene halves must correlate with long hair to have a long-haired puppy. A short-haired German Shepherd might carry one long hair gene half, and it will not show, but if the same dog mates with another who also has a dormant half gene of long hair, the two dormant genes might pair and form a full long hair gene which would make the puppy long-haired. And guess what happens when a short-haired stud produces a long-haired puppy? The short-haired parent is often removed from the stud pool. Now that you know the differences between the long-haired German Shepherd vs. However, it is primarily true because any dog with an absent undercoat is disqualified. Given that double coats in the long-haired variety are pretty rare, the general assumption stands true in most cases. If you intend on entering your dog in a show, you should get a short-haired German Shepherd. To learn more about which colors are considered faults, check out my post on German Shepherd colors. The dog is also considered exotic because of its rareness and distinct looks. This has social currency not in dog show circles but in upscale suburbia. However, the long-haired ones are equally trainable and competent, and ironically have a better look for the job. Color plays an important role here. For example, a white long-haired German Shepherd looks cuddly and truly non-threatening. In contrast, a darker long-haired doggo looks intimidating. It is safer to raise and train them because they are interchangeable between teams, squads, and institutions. If you want to enroll even one dog but plan on having more in a pack to guard or serve a business, farm, or school, you should get a short-haired German Shepherd.

But how about the German Shepherd coat? Do German Shepherd puppies change color? This article will discuss German Shepherd puppy coat coloring and how that coloring changes over time. Yes, German Shepherd puppies change color as they develop into adulthood. Even after they completely shed their puppy coat and grow their permanent adult coat, you can still expect to see some subtle changes in color. Instead, it sheds and changes continuously from birth to around 6 months. Once your German Shepherd turns 7 months old, the changes to their coat color will be more subtle. Nevertheless, it will continue to transform until they become adults at around 2 years old. Puppies are single-coated and their fur is generally soft and fluffy. Over time, they will shed that coat and develop a double-coat composed of dense fur and coarse outer hairs. Thick, downy fur helps puppies regulate their temperature within their first few months of life. However, their needs will change as they develop into adults. In the spring, German Shepherds blow their undercoats in preparation for the warm summer months. They will again shed heavily in the fall to develop a thicker and possibly darker winter coat. However, their appearance will still change—possibly multiple times—until well into adulthood, which starts at around 2 years old. However, you may still notice some subtle changes in thickness as the seasons turn. The color might also change slightly due to various factors like diet and sun exposure. However, experienced breeders can often tell whether a puppy will be long-coated before they turn a month old. It is also common for some unique markings to appear or disappear at this time. Nevertheless, the change in appearance might still be significant between 7 and 18 months old. Their shade could become darker or lighter, and their coat pattern can show some slight changes as well. Changes could still occur as a result of diet, environmental exposure, or health issues. No matter what color you prefer, your German Shepherd will benefit from proper nutrition and supplements for dog coat growth.
