I was able to get quick responses and knowledgeable input from the breeder. My puppy is healthy, happy, and easy going. She had the best personality and was raised right up to the point we got her! We are just over the moon happy with our experience. The breeder truly is so helpful and even offers continual support and advice after you pick up your puppy. She has messaged asking how our puppy settled in to her new home and truly cares! Reviewer: Natalie, October 25, .She was just amazing! Very kind in explaining everything about my puppy, it sure was a big difference in my decision! We are very happy with our choice with Rose Capital Goldens and Doodles and our amazing puppy! This was our first dog buying experience. Jen was absolutely wonderful in assisting us. We got a Golden Retriever from her in August of and we could not be more happy with our purchase. After leaving another breeder because we were not comfortable , Jen proved to be a God send. Our puppy is the perfect addition. Throughout the process Jen has been extremely responsive, even at 2am, and patient. She posts all sorts or adorable pics of the puppies and parents thus you are never in the dark about their development until you bring them home. Even when they are home, Jen is still just as responsive! She's truly a fairy dog mother. She cares about the pups, loves what she does and it shows! Jen is an incredible breeder and she has been there for us every step of the way! When we picked up Hank he was on a schedule that we followed- which made it a lot easier for us when we got home. We stuck to the schedule which made is easy for potty training. Anytime I have a question about something, she is very responsive and helpful. I am so thankful for Jen and have recommend her to my family and friends. This past week we needed her more than ever. Freaked out and unable to afford this I called Jen for some advice and guidance on what to do. Jen gave me a list of things to get at Wal Mart and steps to take the next days. I seriously do not have enough words to describe how amazing Jen is! For my birthday in April my boyfriend surprised me with a F1 goldendoodle puppy. When he went to get him, he said he felt so comfortable with Jen and she gave him so many tips for first time puppy owners. Ever since then I have been in contact with her so many times. Since I've never had a dog of my own before, I freak out about the littlest of things and Jen knows exactly what to say and do and how to help and how to calm me down when I might be overreacting! I really don't know how she does it all. My goldendoodle is the best dog ever and it's all thanks to Jen! I really don't know what I would do without her support. And if we decide to get another puppy in the future, it will definitely be from Jen. When he went to pick my Jolie up, Jen gave him a detailed training schedule, a good amount of puppy food, and an open invitation to contact her with ANY questions. When I did have questions, Jen was available and gave me great advice. I could not have asked for a better breeder to interact with. I would and probably will in the future adopt another doodle from Jen and will recommend all my friends to her as well! My goldendoodle, Phoebe, is the best gift I could have ever asked for. Jen updated me weekly and sent me pictures before I was able to pick up my puppy. She also has always offered to continue to help me even after giving me Phoebe. A month after having Phoebe she got really sick and was throwing up constantly. Jen offered to come all the way to Weatherford to give me meds and ultrasound her stomach to make sure she was okay. She will do anything for you and stays in contact! I love Jen, she is absolutely amazing!!! Every interaction with Jen has been amazing. When I messaged her, I got a prompt, informative response. After talking on the phone, I knew I had to have one of her pups. I put down my deposit for Biscuit - a beautiful F1 goldendoodle boy and counted down the days until he was old enough to be mine! Jen updated me with pictures of him until he was ready to come home. She loves to see pictures of Biscuit as he grows and is always there if I have questions - just a text away. This breeder is absolutely incredible. She goes above and beyond for her puppies to ensure every puppy from the litter goes to a good home. Every time my Irishdoodle, Lemon, had any crate training problems, potty training problems, even stomach problems, I was given amazing advice from the breeder. I am usually a skeptic about other breeders, but this breeder is incredible and goes above and beyond for literally everyone. I waited two years to get a dog, saving money and researching dog breeds and breeders. Jen is the best of the best when it comes to caring for her puppies and helping out new dog parents! I brought Winston home early and, as a new dog mom, flooded Jen with questions. She would always answer within an hour, and most of the time she would pick up the phone to call me after I texted so she could explain fully!! I still keep in contact with her, sending her updated pictures of Winston. I am so thankful to have found her through a friend, and I truly believe I would not have had the same incredible experience with a different breeder! Thank you Jen! I was skeptical because I had never purchased from a breeder before. I spent about a year going through different breeders and doing my research. She asked me questions about what I wanted in a dog, myself and my lifestyle to match me with the perfect puppy. I must say she got the match exactly perfect. Healthy, happy and exact personality I wanted in a dog. Our next puppy is most definitely coming from Jen. While my puppy was still in her care, she would update me with pictures and inform me how the puppy was doing without having to ask. When I picked up my pup, he was already in a routine so it was really easy to care for him. It was as if he was already potty and kennel trained, I had no problem whatsoever ever!! She is seriously the best. I can call her anytime with issues. She's like a second mother to my pup! I'm glad I found her. Jen was incredible to work with! She was patient, answered all of my questions promptly and kept me updated with pictures up until the day I picked up my baby from her! I had a very specific list of qualities I wanted in my puppies temperament, and she met them to the "T" from the time he was about a week old! He has fulfilled all those qualities and more as he has grown up! Not only was Jen incredible in matching me with my best friend, but she has also been incredible since picking up my baby! I have called on her numerous times for various reasons! She has been so helpful with everything from puppy biting to eating a dead squirrel! Jen went from being a breeder to a friend! I am so thankful for all the many ways Jen matched me with my best friend and has helped along the way! Thanks, Jen!! To our surprise Poppy became sick a little over 2 weeks after we got her. We were instructed to, "rush her to the animal ER! She will not survive without a transfusion! Jen met my hubby half way. After 24 hours on antibiotics Poppy was back to an active puppy. Our guess is that she had pneumonia. Jen is proof that good humans still exist on Earth. After two weeks with Jen our Poppy was miraculously healed. Jen is a gift to the animals that she is raising. Reviewer: Angie, September 26, .We could not have asked for a better experience! This is our first puppy and Jen continues to reach out to us and could not be more sincere about wanting to make sure that Baxter's transition is a success! It was so nice to finally meet her in person and so reassuring to know that we can always reach out to her for advice. Baxter has found his forever home and we could not be happier with our decision! Sent her an e-mail through PuppyFind. Put her in touch with my wife and the rest is history. We love our standard poodle. Jen made pick-up super convenient. She, her husband, and her two boys met us -- had paperwork all organized, food to take home. She's stayed in touch since we've been home. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone. We looked everywhere for a beautiful male golden retriever, and we came across Jen. Jen has been the perfect breeder and friend. She always communicated so well with us prior to getting our golden retriever. She sent photos daily as well as videos for us to see and make sure we had the perfect match. After three weeks of having this puppy, Jen still communicates to us regularly about any questions we may have or concerns. We had such an excellent experience and would recommend this breeder to anyone and everyone. She kept sending me pictures and updates of my goldendoodle, Lucy, until it was time to pick her up. After I picked her up, I had a couple questions and she was more than happy to help. It's been a week and we still text regularly! Our Goldendoodle came practically potty trained and is perfect, healthy, and the cutest puppy ever. All the reviews you read are true and I couldn't say enough for Jen and how happy we were with her. Highly recommended!!!! We just picked up our sweet little goldendoodle, and Jen made the experience so wonderful! She is so knowledgeable and easy to work with. She sent plenty of prep tips and guided us through picking our sweet little girl. Our goldendoodle is beautiful, healthy and had already started to ask to go potty outside day 2 at home. She really cares about these puppies and made the whole experience super personal and comfortable. Chloe is such a well-tempered little angel, and my friends have already been asking if Jen still has pups available! She had all of the paperwork ready to go, helped us understand the best healthcare and made transactions super easy. Thank you, we are so happy! What a knack Jen has with puppies. Jen goes beyond expectations. Her earnest compassion and ability to observe pups and predict their size and personality is uncanny. I highly recommend letting her know the precise temperament and size you are looking for. Jen is very good at matching people with pups. She goes out of her way to accommodate too. .Surprising people are found in some of the oddest places. Who would've thought to find such a sincere individual in such a niche business. Thank goodness too; she has been so helpful. Her pups have obviously received attention, guidance, and socialization in all the right ways. They come almost house trained, and already understand crucial terms like no, good, bad, come, and others, which proves she spends a good deal of quality time preparing her pups for their future. Jen is happy to spend time, both before and after the sell, helping her customers with whatever she can to ensure both human and pup do well. Reviewer: Dal, September 13, Jen, you are wonderful!! I brought home my beautiful and incredibly sweet golden just over two weeks ago, and it is one of the best decisions I've made. Jen was so helpful in answering any and all questions I had and made the process of getting my puppy home writhin a couple days. She also really helped me make sure I was selecting the puppy who's temperament and personality matched mine and my lifestyle. I am beyond happy with the whole process. On top of the helpfulness I received, was also able to see how kind Jen is and made me feel safe in my decision to purchase from online. My golden is stunning and the sweetest thing. I would highly recommend purchasing from Jen. It was my first time buying a dog and I had so many questions. I fell in love with Henrik's pictures our puppy and bombarded Jen with questions, all of which she answered respectfully and promptly. When we felt comfortable with everything, she was kind enough to meet us half way to pick him up! He was everything and more we wanted and is the best dog we could have asked for. He was happy and healthy and still is today. We are so thankful for the treatment Jen gave us and for our little boy! I would definitely recommend Jen to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, and beautiful puppy! She has provided so much support and has been readily available for any questions I had and has been wonderful at sending me photo updates. She has been a joy to work with. Both my sister and I have gotten Cavalier puppies from her, and we couldn't be happier! Such beautiful and sweet creatures. Thank you so much for everything, Jen! Thank you!! Jen is incredibly helpful, friendly and truly committed to making sure pups find the right home. She went with us to the vet and ensured we had certificate in hand before handing over Brody. Thank you, Jen!!! Our puppies receive a Veterinarian Certificate of Health confirming each puppy is healthy, their 1st puppy shots, multiple dewormings, and will be ready to go to their new home at 8 weeks of age. We give our neonates boiled organ broth, usually from a cow's liver, with an eye dropped at 24 hours of age to spur their immune systems. We make our own puppy mash with high quality dog food, probiotics, high fat Greek yogourt, and as they age we add pureed cranberries, carrots, and human grade boiled chicken along with the broth. We never leave our puppies alone, and we use professional puppysitters if we have to leave, although we are almost always home with the puppies during the 8 weeks we have with each sweet soul. Every puppy has multiple physical human contacts daily. We strongly believe the first 8 weeks are the foundation of the puppies life, and every aspect matters. Music, talking, and human sound is on for the puppies 24 x 7 whether they are in the puppy room or the puppy gym. We usually play happy musical soundtracks, never anything loud or scary.

Simply talking to her you will learn what to watch out for. We sleep with them and eat with them. Well, nearly. The point is that we are not just Breeding dogs. We had the dogs first and then we fell in love with the breed. Is it part English Bulldog, or Pug or some Terrier? Little is noted in the development of its history no one knows exactly how the French bulldog came into being because very poor records were kept we know we know the most basic facts such as that there were Normandy immigrants coming from France to England that brought these dogs with them around the s. Those immigrants were lace workers that had been living in the farming communities of northern friends which is where they were a rich initially discovered but when those lace workers move to France they brought the dogs with them and had a tremendous reception of the French people because of their petite size versus other extremely strong almost big dog presents that is easily social and loyal with everybody and never disliking anyone. Variance in weight can be from pounds! This dog is active in sports which I might compare to a quarter horse. They envy a walk if possible 10 times a day, but that walk will only be bigger us for maybe 5 to 10 minutes. This difference determine the difference in pricing that you will see regardless of optimal specification they always weigh heavier on the scale than that they look because their bone structure is dense for their size. There about like years that stand to attention have become their trademark and their faces are somewhere between a pug and an English bulldog. The French bulldog can wait any were literally from 15 to 40 pounds but the breed average is from 22 to 28 pounds and standing about 1 foot tall. A fun aspect of the breed is a tremendous variation in color unlike other breeds that are more consistent. This Breed spends everything from white to Brindle to fun with spots and without and in varying shades in almost every color of the rainbow. Fad colors are including chocolate black and blue and tricolor and these have been frowned upon for years by classical breeders and registries and French Bulldogs LA clubs of America due to the in breeding that was necessary to create these colors. Overtime though we hope that because of ethics and patients that this fact will change. Brindle is the AKC definition of black but that color also varies as much is a black coffee to coffee with cream and should always include sprinkles of golden hairs. Note that eyes are meant to be dark brown and variations of this are due to fad colors which are most often reproduced in the past with in line breeding that exacerbates recessive traits and can reproduce like colored eyes again frowned upon by classical tradition traditional breeders but something that we hope to see changing in this near future. This means exactly that, it will not work for you but rather be a great companion happy to sit all day at your feet or on your lap. It is still small enough to be carried around or brought on board a plane. It loves walks albeit short ones and is sensitive to the heat so in the summertime I walk them only at night or early mornings. They cannot swim as easily as other breeds and need to be worked with in the beginning with the lifejacket as a puppy so that it can learn to swim. On occasion, some may howl like a coyote or periodically an actual true bark. But these are more rare instances. They would be a fun addition to any household, lighting up the room with their smile. Yes, they seem to smile! They are very social with all people never acting skittish, in fact the first to greet you. They behave well off the leash and it would be a common sight to see an owner walking a busy street with their dog freely at their side for they are very obedient and easy to train. They often snore though, so know this trait is common. Many doggy daycares will tell you the French bulldog is the boss dog of the pack. This may often be so but more and more French bulldogs are submissive. In fact, I, as a breeder, am breeding for this quality so as never to have a dog that you have to worry about fighting with another dog. Note that French Bulldogs do not drool unless extremely emotional and perhaps there is a dog in heat nearby otherwise primarily a dry mouth. November 16, Are you thinking of taking the next step in purchasing a French Bulldog from a reputable breeder? If so, then I can help you with some of the research because I understand how important it is to get a Frenchie from the right place. Frenchies are great pets to have, and they have a wonderful temperament that makes them great companions. However, they also have genetic health issues that any future Frenchie owner must consider. All Frenchies are at risk of these health issues, but working with a reputable breeder can reduce the risks of inheritance by running health tests on the parents. All of these breeders do just that, and they also ensure that their puppies are socialized and ready to go to the right home. All their puppies are vaccinated before you buy them and are dewormed too. In their home, the Frenchies grow accustomed to different animals, such as cats, other dogs, and small children. This ensures they have the perfect temperament for a family home. All puppies will arrive with their AKC registrations and are microchipped to ensure they can be found if lost. Upon receiving your puppy between ten and twelve weeks old, you will also be given food and a crate to start raising your puppy. Once you adopt a Frenchie from the Ethical Frenchie, the breeder is happy to work with you if you have any issues. They focus on ensuring you always get the answers you need and are delighted to work with you even when the puppies grow older.

They will ensure that all puppies go to the right home, as they will conduct phone and text interviews and allow you to meet your puppy via video before you meet them in person. They begin training at three weeks and learn how to respond to snaps, whistles, and hand claps. If further training is required, they offer it for a small fee.

Their small size, typically weighing under 28 pounds, makes them perfectly suited to compact urban spaces. However, their charming personalities and heartwarming companionship are universally loved, irrespective of city or countryside living. This breed's laid-back nature does not mean they're devoid of fun and play. On the contrary, French Bulldogs can be quite playful and are known for their often comical and entertaining antics, which only further endears them to their owners. Their affectionate demeanor, combined with a remarkably low barking tendency, makes them a joy to have around the house. French Bulldogs are sturdy, compact, and stocky, with a powerful muscular build that contradicts their small size. They have a smooth coat that comes in a variety of colors, from fawn and brindle to white and grey. Their facial expressions are human-like, and they're known to "talk" using a complex system of yawns, yips, and gargles. However, owning a French Bulldog does come with responsibilities. Their brachycephalic short-nosed nature makes them prone to certain health issues and less tolerant of extreme temperatures. Despite their muscular appearance, they are not the best swimmers, and care should be taken around bodies of water. Syracuse, N. Dosztan-Reiss and her husband, Steve Reiss, were not sure the dog, who weighed just over a pound, would make it through the night. The couple has a lot of nights like that. They started Seventh Heaven, a dog rescue, five years ago. It is volunteer-run and has no physical home. The dogs live with volunteer foster families until they are adopted. In recent years, the rescue has become one that takes the hardest of the hard-luck cases. Two Boston terrier puppies are waiting for surgery. An English bulldog has a congenital heart problem requiring medication and trips to a cardiologist in Albany. A puggle is partly paralyzed and needs a wheelchair. More than half of the dogs rescued by the group have come from bad breeding operations — puppy mills -- that churn out puppies while keeping the dogs in cages with little access to health care. Already a problem prior to the pandemic, the number of puppy mills and their production ballooned during lockdown as people looked for dogs to keep them company at home. The dogs rescued from puppy mills often have costly health problems. The puppy mills, many in rural Ohio and Texas, keep the dogs in cages, provide little or no medical care, and will not keep dogs that are ill or on the market too long. The owners kill the dogs unless they can find someone who will take them. A freedom ride Juno, the little French bulldog, was one of those puppies that was too sick to sell. Her breeder called Deb Bodenschatz, who lives outside of Buffalo. But she tells them to call her, day or night. More than of them have her cell phone number. Instead of killing a dog, they call her. She shares her list of dogs with the rescue groups, including Seventh Heaven. Then a volunteer driver from her group goes to get the dogs and delivers them to volunteers from rescue organizations along the route. They pick up about two dozen dogs from different breeders in Ohio by lunchtime, then take them to a vet for shots before they can cross the state lines. Lauren McNerny has spent many nights waiting there. But she is also a dog driver, a dog foster parent, and fast with a leash and collar. Katrina Tulloch ktulloch syracuse. Most of them have never been in a car, or around people much, until that ride to freedom. She leashes them up, walks them around the parking lot, and then usually takes them back to her house in Syracuse. Sometimes, the breeders wait too long to make the call. Libby, a French bulldog, was near death when her breeder called for help. Volunteers from Seventh Heaven drove to Ohio to pick her up, then went directly to Cornell University so Libby could have surgery. The drive alone was 16 hours. Cornell veterinarians fixed her uterus and reconstructed her urinary tract. But during that surgery, they found a cancerous tumor. Who would want a dog like that? Laura Kappler adopted Libby, a dog who required several surgeries after receiving poor care while being bred in a puppy mill. Kappler was one of the techs who took care of Libby during her long stays at Cornell. They have two other dogs who have taught Libby how to be a pet. She has learned to tip over the toy box and take out the squeaky animals. If the other dogs stick their heads out for a scratch, she does, too. But what she loves the most are car rides. Everywhere, anywhere, nowhere. Part of the pack French bulldog Juno aka Junebug was born with a hole in her heart. She had a very small chance of survival. Sunday, July 16, .The prognosis was grim. There was no way surgery could fix it. They could try some medicine and hope for the best in the time she had left. So every night the tiny dog tucked herself in next to Noah and the other dogs who live with the Reiss family. The number is always changing; this day it was .She followed them around. She ate when they ate. Played when they played. Barked her tiny bark to make sure she got a treat, too. Juno grew. She ran. This day, she is trotting in and out of the Dozstan-Reiss house, checking on the visitors and the dogs. She plays with Ford, a Boston terrier puppy waiting to go to his foster family. She rolls in the grass. She pops her head up for a scratch behind her ears. A recent trip to the vet found that the fatal hole in her heart is not gone, but her heart has grown around it. She is healthy. She could live a long life. She has also become the one that welcomes the other sick, tired and scared puppies to this outpost of Seventh Heaven tucked in Onondaga Hill. The water dish. She plays with these other dogs who seem to have forgotten their scars. Pancake, a much larger French bulldog, was in a puppy mill dog with a prolapsed uterus. She flops down on her back in front of anyone who pauses, then waits until they scratch her belly. Noah, the English bulldog with a heart problem, snores like an old man. Ford, the puppy, twitches. Buddy sleeps near Juno and Rue. Juno wakes up first, her stumpy tail wagging, asking: Who wants to play? Marnie Eisenstadt writes about people and public affairs and puppies in Central New York.

Even though this dog was bred as a working dog, it is friendly and loyal, making it an excellent choice for breeding to create unique family-oriented crossbreeds. On the other hand, the German Shepherd is known to be courageous, fierce, and protective. Most people keep the German Shepherd as a guard dog, making it an excellent choice for families that need a protective dog. Breeding these two creates a gentle dog to work as a family pet and fierce enough to protect its family when need be. In simpler terms, the crossbreed highlights the best qualities from both parents, creating a unique, valuable dog. However, the two parents have a conclusive background, explaining how the breeds came to be and how their popularity grew. Whippet History The Whippet can be traced back to the s, with its origin believed to be England. This medium-sized dog belongs to the sighthounds family, a descendant of the greyhounds. They are smaller than regular-size greyhounds as not much has changed, even with breeding. Whippets were kept and trained to chase wild rabbits and other small animals. They would hunt these small animals out of their burrows due to their high speeds. Today, Whippets are mostly kept as home pets, but some still use them as working dogs. While their popularity grew in England more than in other parts of the world, they were first recognized by the American Kennel Club in .This followed recognition by the Kennel Club in Egland in .In its earlier days, farmers in Germany and the rest of Europe relied on dogs to protect and guide their herds. Some dogs were great at the job, but no one had developed a district herding breed. In , Captain Max von Stephanitz retired from military life and began breeding dogs. He created a superior German Shepherd dog, thanks to his extensive knowledge of the breeding techniques of the British people. But, he was determined to keep the breed as a working dog, after which he decided to train it for police work. Captain convinced the German government to use the breed with his military connections. This followed the German Shepherd used as a Red Cross dog, rescue, guard, messenger, and supply carrier. Breeding of this dog in the United States was not regulated, which led to a deterioration in the quality of German Shepherd. Whippet German Shepherd Appearance The Whippet German Shepherd mix has a distinct appearance that carries the physical attributes of both parents. The dog can present the skinny body of the Whippet but have the curious face of the German Shepherd. Therefore, Whippet German Shepherd mixes can vary even among siblings, each having its own set of physical traits. Another unique feature of the Whippet German Shepherd mix is the straight back, despite both parents having a curved back. Size The Whippet German Shepherd mix stands at 20 to 25 inches tall. Most dogs of the same age will appear similar in height, taking this standard. The Whippet German Shepherd can weigh between 20 to 96 pounds when it comes to weight. The German Shepherd is considered a medium to large dog and can weigh between 75 to 95 pounds. The Whippet is much smaller and weighs between 15 to 30 pounds. This means the mix can take a size closer to the Whippet or German Shepherd, hence the variation in size. Coat Type and Color The coat type and color of the Whippet German Shepherd depend on the dominant gene from the parents. Your dog can have a coat resembling the Whippet or one closer to the German Shepherd. They come in a medium-length coat prone to shedding, needing regular brushing. If your dog takes after the German Shepherd, it will have an intelligent mind, and you will notice its inquisitive side comes to play. If it takes after the Whippet, it will show the gentle, friendly vibe of a family-oriented dog. It will have a more mellow than curious personality, but you may still notice a few personality traits of the German Shepherd. Both parents are great family dogs and enjoy human interaction and attention. Therefore, the mix does not do well if left alone for a long time. It can generally be an independent dog, but having created relationships in the family, it would be best to give it as much attention as needed. The courageous and curious personality of the German Shepherd may lead to your mix having a stubborn attitude. Training can be challenging, but your dog can pick up on cues and commands with positive reinforcement. Whippet German Shepherd Care Whippet German Shepherd mixes bring so much value; they deserve regular care and maintenance. Feeding The type of food to give your Whippet German Shepherd mix is not cast on stone. Usually, diet is best established on a per-dog basis rather than per breed or size basis. On that note, the right food for your Whippet German Shepherd mix will depend on its health, activity levels, etc. It is important to note that both parents, the Whippet and German Shepherd, were bred as working dogs. Therefore, they have adapted to being high-energy working dogs since time immemorial. That means their diets need to match their energy requirements all through. The best food for your Whippet German Shepherd should provide essential nutrients for optimal growth and development. Additionally, the food should be balanced and packed with adequate energy-giving components to keep your dog active and healthy. You may be inclined to feed large portions many times, but that can increase the risk of your dog developing obesity. If you are unsure of the right foods or potions, the best approach would be to seek help from a certified vet for guidelines on an appropriate diet. Grooming The Whippet German Shepherd mix is a moderate shedder, so you need to brush the coat regularly. If you have your dog indoors, then you would need to invest in a high-quality vacuum to get rid of loose hairs on the floors, furniture, and other surfaces. Your dog may need regular baths depending on how dirty it gets, especially if it plays outside most of the time. A bath once a month is adequate to keep your dog clean. Training The Whippet German Shepherd mix is a pretty intelligent dog. On this note, your dog might have difficulty cooperating with you during training, as they like having the upper hand. The best approach would be to make the sessions short and quick to keep their attention span higher. The dog may be inclined to chase small animals, but the behavior can be tamed if appropriately handled. Like other dogs, your Whippet German Shepherd mix will respond well to positive reinforcement. During training, praise your dog and offer treats whenever it improves or picks up on a cue. Lastly, ensure you socialize your dog to help with behavior. Plan doggy dates with your friends or take your dog to the park to play with other dogs. You could also leave your dog in a doggy daycare to interact with other dogs and people too. Your Whippet German Shepherd dog will need active playtime and walks to stay healthy and happy. This mix is considered a high-energy dog; therefore, long walks, hikes, and park playtimes are advisable. Creating an exercise routine for your dog will help keep destructive behavior at bay, often resulting from built-up energy and lack of socialization. When your dog is tired from exercise, it is likely to behave better and rest better. Some of the health issues your Whippet German Shepherd may suffer from include: Bloating. They are typically around 21 to 22 inches tall and weigh approximately 60 to 65 pounds. Coat The Whippet — German Shepherd mix can take on a number of appearances depending on the parent it takes after. Grooming While Whippets are short-coated with smooth hair, GSDs typically have medium-to-long hair with dense undercoats. The offspring of these two breeds could don either of the two coat types. The difficulty of grooming a GSD — Whippet cross would depend on what type of coat they inherit. If they take after the GSD, they will need more frequent baths and brushing. They will also shed throughout the year and blow their coats twice a year. On the other hand, their short coats will need very little maintenance if they take after the Whippet. Strength The Whippet might seem small and lanky, but its body is actually composed of lean muscle. Apart from body strength, these crosses can also inherit the considerable bite strength of their GSD parent. German Shepherds have an average bite force of psi. They are also incredibly agile. Nevertheless, they perform best in sprints with long rests in between. Generally, they thrive best when they get several vigorous exercise sessions per day. Three minute sessions of fetch or regular long walks should be enough. Exercise requirements can vary between each individual dog. Trainability Whippets are not as easily trained as German Shepherds. While GSDs are among the smartest and most obedient dog breeds, Whippets are more self-willed and not as intelligent. In fact, while GSDs rank as the 3rd most intelligent dog breed, Whippets rank at .Nevertheless, given ample time to form a strong bond and with enough determination from its handler, a Whippet — German Shepherd cross can be quite eager to please and can learn fairly quickly. These dogs can be affectionate with family and are patient with young children. With early socialization and proper introduction, they also get along with cats and other pets. Although the GSD — Whippet mix can be quite wary of strangers, they can become playful and sociable with guests once welcomed by the rest of the family. Nevertheless, they can still inherit the strong protective tendencies of their German Shepherd parent. Health The German Shepherd — Whippet mix is generally a healthy cross. They could, however, be just as prone to life-threatening bloat. However, this can be avoided through proper screening of breeding stock and keeping the dog at a normal weight. Additionally, these dogs can sometimes suffer from eye disorders and deafness. In fact, they typically live between 12 and 15 years. Ensuring proper nutrition and keeping them at a healthy weight could further contribute to their longevity. Because it is a cross between two purebreds, it does not have breed standards that can be used for conformation events. Through this program, both purebreds and mixed breeds come together and take part in events like Tracking, Obedience, and Rally. These crossbreeds are undeniably extraordinary dogs with many positively unique characteristics. However, most breeders prefer to keep their pedigrees pure not only because purebreds are more profitable but also because there are too many uncontrollable variables when trying to produce crosses. For these reasons, finding the offspring of a Whippet and a German Shepherd would be difficult. These rare crossbreeds are typically the result of accidental mating. They thrive best when they have a job to do and have access to some open space. If you believe you can meet their mental and physical needs, a Whippet-GSD would definitely be a wonderful companion. If you found this crossbreed fascinating, you might also be interested in the larger GSD-Greyhound mix. Or, check out how the German Shepherd mixes with several other breeds of all sizes. They can usually be identified by their lean bodies no matter which parent they take after more. There are certain colors that may be present in their coats: Black ; gold Black ; red Sable Their coats will be on the short to medium side and they very rarely shed. This makes them a very easy dog to groom, which is great because these dogs love to play outside in the dirt. More On The Whippet German Shepherd Mix Whippets and German Shepherds have very different personality traits, and a Whippet German Shepherd could take on more traits from one parent or be an equal balance of both personalities. The German Shepard is a very dominant dog, and they are also incredibly smart. They are very courageous and have no problem scaring off anyone that presents a danger. On the other side of the gene pool, the Whippet dog is a lot more mellow. They are one of the least aggressive breeds of dogs and usually love to be around people. These are the dogs that can sit beside their human companions and listen to them chit-chat for hours. A lot of people find having a Whippet dog around very comforting. When listing out the traits that you would like your ideal dog to have, most people will find those both German Shepherds and Whippets present qualities they want. When these two breeds come together to breed, they bring the best of both worlds into one dog. The Whippet German Shepherd mix could have the temperament of either breed, but will likely have traits from both. They are incredibly smart guard dogs that show a lot of courage. The Whippet gene does usually take over and these dogs become loveable family dogs. However, one trait that many Whippet German Shepherd mixes carry from the German Shepherd side is nipping. This is because the German Shepard was originally bred for herding. They may start to nip when they are trying to get your attention. This is because the German Shepherd dog is full of energy and the Whippet is known for how speedy they are. Ideally, you should give a Whippet German Shepard mix at least 40 minutes of exercise each day. The best way to do this is to break it up into two separate sessions. They love a game that challenges their mind as well as their agility. They love a good game of fetch or tug-of-war. Switching up the games will keep them happy while staying healthy. Since they are a gentler breed, they can easily be entertained by playing with kids. Most Whippet German Shepherd mixes enjoy the company of kids. Whippet German Shepherd Mix: Training While these dogs are very well-behaved, they do have some bad habits such as nipping that should be corrected. Training should be started as early as possible with Whippet German Shepherd mix dogs. This will help curb some of the aggressive traits that they inherited from the German Shepherd. When you start training and socialising with these dogs when they are puppies, then they will likely be very obedient dogs. This will help ensure that your dog behaves in an affectionate manner, without taking their guard dog instincts away from them. The thing about Whippet German Shepherd mixes is that they are at their happiest when they have a task to do. You should always encourage them to exercise their physical and mental capabilities to the fullest. This goes back to the instincts of the Whippet dog because they were originally bred to chase rabbits and fish them out of their burrows. Once a Whippet German Shepherd mix is socialised and well adapted to their surroundings, they will be very loyal to their owners. What makes this dog perfect for most families is that they have the gentle nature of a Whippet and are very affectionate to those they love. However, they still hold the protective traits of a German Shepherd. You will need to make sure you begin training these dogs early to make sure they are on their best behavior. When you put the time into these dogs, they will easily become a part of the family. They are one of the most loyal types of dogs and enjoy being surrounded by people they love. Other Popular Posts.

Purebred Whippets too have a range of coloration, such as brown, black, blue and white. They can also have a combination of colours as well as a variety of markings. Hence the colours of and markings of German Whippets might be equally varied. They can be a little highly strung given their strong prey drive, just like other members of the sighthound family.

Tia is a very special dog as for the frist 7 months of her life she was mistreated very badly. She was not let outside, had things thrown at her, way underfed and probably a lot of other things I don't know about or haven't worked out by her reactions. My partner and I have had Tia for a couple of months after Mandi, a lovely lady, rescued her from this terrible home but then could no longer keep her as she has such a bad back. When Mandi first got Tia, she was happy about leaving her old home behind but did not have a clue about right or wrong. She would mess inside, wouldn't walk on the lead and was scared of everything. Mandi did a brilliant job of housebreaking Tia, and used a crate. For 3 months Tia lived with a proper family. Because Tia pulled so much on the lead, Mandi had to find her another home. This was heartbreaking for her and her children. Mandi said she chose my advert from a site called Preloved because all I was looking for was another dog who needed a loving home as a companion for Shep. As we do not have children, I have lots of love, kisses and cuddles to give. We met Tia on a Saturday and she hit it off with me and Shep first time. Sunday we went back and brought her home and I have not regretted it! She is a bit of a handful, but given her first home, I feel lucky to have such a caring dog. She is as affectionate as Shep, and they love nothing more than playing together. I have taught Tia her left and right back and front paws, to look left and right at the road, to stop at the road, roll over, jump, dance, and also to talk. She does this at all hours! Shep knows all of these tricks too so you can imagine the fun.But I wouldn't change either of them for anyone! Tia has really come out of her shell, jumping and playing. I am slowly training Tia to heel, and although she is very clever in learning harder tricks, heeling is the hardest thing to teach her. She is still scared of things, some are silly like cups or cushions, or flies, but I think with all the love my partner and I can give her, she will become as settled as Shep is. They are both more like humans than dogs, and they love nothing better than to cuddle up in bed. I would like to ask that if people are looking for a new dog, to take in a rescued dog. They are a lot of hard work and need alot of patience, but everyone deserves a second chance. In the rescue centers they normally teach the dogs basic tricks. I've gone for the hard way, but I've learned so much that I would even think of doing it again once I move to a bigger house :. Needs 40 min. Whippets have such great personality traits that they are becoming a favorite for mixing with other breeds. The German Whippet has displayed the wonderful qualities of both breeds and is a great choice for those who love Whippets but are looking for some of the hardier qualities found in Shepherds. Here are some of the features you can expect with this mix: 1. This mix loves to run far and dig holes. They will do best in a large, fenced-in area. The fence needs to be rather high as the German Whippet will be capable of leaping high fences in a single bound. They will also probably retain the urge to chase things. German Whippets might be a little stubborn but they will be quick learners. You can teach this dog to play soccer, Frisbee, or chase a tennis ball down. It can display the energy levels of both breeds. The weight range for this cross-breed will typically be 45 pounds with lots of lean muscle. It may look like a German Shepherd and have their markings with a bit more refinement. As with all mixes, there is no guarantee which traits will be displayed as even repeat breedings with the same parents can produce different results. The Whippet side of the family will bring the laid-back tendencies to the mix, and the Shepherd side will give them the desire to keep busy and they love to learn. This mix should produce a dog that loves most everyone but still has a bit of the guarding instinct as they may be suspicious of strangers. If you would like a visual image of the German Whippet, check out this YouTube video to get an idea of the size and gentle nature of this mixed breed. Whippet Central advocates the adoption of the German Whippet as unintentional breeding of these two dogs does occur. Right Pet concurs that the appearance and size of these dogs may vary as well as the dominant traits from the two breeds. They do feel this mix will benefit from leash training as this mix will probably not be able to resist the urge to run and chase. Dogsnet describes the popular features of the Whippet which include their agility, incredible disposition, resiliency, and infinite and incredible speed. It seems that even when they are mixed with the more stoic and aggressive Shepherd, they retain their fun-loving and speedy features. Dogsnet points out that German Shepherds are known for their loyalty and courage. When mixed with the Whippet, the result could produce a dog with either a longer and thicker coat, or the dense and sleek coat of the Whippet. The color combinations of the mix are varied and numerous. Combining the Shepherd, who is courageous, bold, and loved for his work ethic, will most likely produce a dog that is more docile than the pure Shepherd but result in a gentler breed who still has lots of energy.

Please be sure to provide many chew toys to help with this transitional period. Cow hooves can be found at many pet stores and are recommended. Stay away from pig ears and cheap rawhide, and "greenies," as these can cause severe diarrhea, bloat, and are a choking hazard. For instance, keep an eye out for diarrhea if you change your pup's food. If your bulldog develops diarrhea then stop all food for 12 hours. If it persists for more than 24 hours, contact your veterinarian immediately to prevent dehydration. Puppies can dehydrate very rapidly so you need to take it seriously when diarrhea occurs. Dogs can pick up some unwanted guests: ticks, fleas, mites, lice, and intestinal worms. Your dog can be the perfect host for these pests if regular treatment for these nasty pests is not given. Your veterinarian is the best source of knowledge for the local bugs that bug the local dog population and how to prevent these pests. Heartworm is a widespread disease present spread by mosquitoes throughout most of the United States. There is a treatment for heartworm, but it is expensive and takes a toll physically on the dog and can take months to combat. This is especially important for dogs that spend a lot of time outside, that live on farms, or that hunt, as they are at increased risk of contracting this tick-borne disease. Puppies will generally have a first veterinary visit at the age of six weeks by the person who has the mother dog. The veterinarian will examine the puppies to make sure there are no hernias, heart, lung, or eye or ear problems in any of the pups. At 9 weeks, and then again at 12 weeks, the de-wormer and distemper vaccines will be repeated. Then these can be given once a year or on a schedule determined by you and your veterinarian. Lowell Ackerman. This vaccination is required by many communities. There can sometimes be severe penalties if your dog is not rabies vaccinated especially if the dog bites a person or another pet. As your dog ages, more frequent examinations will need to be given. Twice yearly examination will catch medical issues before they become big problems. Older dogs frequently suffer from arthritis and heart disease just like elderly humans. There are effective and safe treatments that can help your older dog live reasonably pain-free and pleasant golden years. It is important to spay females or neuter male your puppy. In addition to various health benefits for the dog decreased chances of certain tumors and infections , there is a big societal benefit in the decreased number of unwanted dogs. Microchipping is also encouraged in case your dog ever becomes lost. The inner ear part of the ear is normally white or darker colored, usually corresponding to the color of the dog's coat, so look for discoloring. The puppy's ears should also not smell nor have any discharge in the ear or on the flap. The ear should be free of debris, dirt, or parasites, like ticks or mites. Any of the following are abnormal: [9] X Trustworthy Source American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Leading organization dedicated to the prevention of animal cruelty Go to source Scratching or pawing the ear. Shaking the head excessively. If in doubt, or if you suspect an ear infection, have your veterinarian look in the ear using an otoscope to examine the eardrum. Never stick a q-tip or similar type of product into the ear canal. You will not be able to see the entire ear canal and should not try to put anything down there. Never use human toothpaste on a dog; only use dental toothpaste made for dogs. The fluoride in human toothpaste is poisonous to dogs and can cause serious health problems. Place a little puppy toothpaste on your fingertip and let your puppy lick it off. The next day put it on your finger and rub it along the outer gums. Then try to put a little on a dog toothbrush, let the puppy lick it then run the toothbrush along the outer edges of the teeth and gums. Only the outer part against the cheeks needs to be brushed. Even with regular tooth brushing, dogs may need dental cleanings once in a while. Plaque and bacteria can build up under the gum line causing problems there or in the roots of the teeth. Just like with their human owners, regular mouth examinations by their doggy dentist should be done once a year. The English Bulldog — Quite a Chap! The English Bulldog can be expected to have certain traits: Affectionate, easygoing, and lovable Quiet—not much of a barker Good with kids and other pets An excellent guard dog, courageous and dependable Adaptable to a wide variety of living conditions Outgoing and friendly personality You may also these characteristics in your bully buddy: Can be gassy and drool a lot Makes a lot of snorting, snuffling, and wheezing noises, and she may snore Can become overweight easily if not exercised regularly Can be rambunctious and rowdy, especially as a puppy Sensitive, matures slowly Can be possessive of toys and food, tending to show dominance She is an intelligent and dependable companion that forms close human bonds. With early socialization and consistent leadership , she is a social and cheerful addition to any family. The modern Bulldog, with a heavy, thickset, low body and massive head, originated in England after the elimination of bull-baiting in .The Old English Bulldog was crossed with the Pug to create a more docile and affectionate family pet. The Bulldog retained its protective and fearless nature, but aggressive and ferocious tendencies were removed from the breed. Bulldogs serve as popular mascots, representing strength in the face of adversity for the US Marine Corps and more than 30 US Universities. Bulldogs are famous for their gentle nature, fondness of children, and clownish antics. The Bulldog is a generally healthy breed with an average lifespan of years. That is why we have summarized the health concerns we will be discussing with you over the life of your Bulldog. By knowing about health concerns specific to Bulldogs, we can tailor a preventive health plan to watch for and hopefully prevent some predictable risks. That does not mean your dog will have these problems; it just means that she is more at risk than other dogs. We will describe the most common issues seen in Bulldogs to give you an idea of what may come up in her future. This guide contains general health information important to all canines as well as the most important genetic predispositions for Bulldogs. At the end of the article, we have also included a description of what you can do at home to keep your English Bulldog looking and feeling her best. And unfortunately, your Bulldog is more likely than other dogs to have problems with her teeth. It starts with tartar build-up on the teeth and progresses to infection of the gums and roots of the teeth. Infections Bulldogs are susceptible to bacterial and viral infections — the same ones that all dogs can get — such as parvo, rabies, and distemper. Many of these infections are preventable through vaccination , which we will recommend based on the diseases we see in our area, her age, and other factors. Obesity Obesity can be a significant health problem in Bulldogs. It is a serious disease that may cause or worsen joint problems, metabolic and digestive disorders, back pain and heart disease. Instead, give her a hug, brush her fur or teeth, play a game with her, or perhaps take her for a walk. Everything from fleas and ticks to ear mites can infest her skin and ears. Hookworms, roundworms, heartworms , and whipworms can get into her system in a number of ways: drinking unclean water, walking on contaminated soil, or being bitten by an infected mosquito. Some of these parasites can be transmitted to you or a family member and are a serious concern for everyone. Spay or Neuter One of the best things you can do for your Bulldog is to have her spayed neutered for males. In females, this means we surgically remove the ovaries and usually the uterus, and in males, it means we surgically remove the testicles. Spaying or neutering decreases the likelihood of certain types of cancers and eliminates the possibility of your pet becoming pregnant or fathering unwanted puppies. Performing this surgery also gives us a chance, while your pet is under anesthesia, to identify and address some of the diseases your dog is likely to develop. For example, if your pet needs hip X-rays or a puppy tooth extracted, this would be a good time. This is convenient for you and easy for your friend. Routine blood testing prior to surgery also helps us to identify and take precautions for common problems that increase anesthetic or surgical risk. Genetic Predispositions for Bulldogs Bone and Joint Problems A number of different musculoskeletal problems have been reported in Bulldogs. While it may seem overwhelming, each condition can be diagnosed and treated to prevent undue pain and suffering. Both hips and elbows are at risk for dysplasia, an inherited disease that causes the joints to develop improperly and results in arthritis. You may notice that he begins to show lameness in his legs or has difficulty getting up from lying down. We can treat the arthritis—the sooner the better—to minimize discomfort and pain. Surgery is sometimes a good option in severe and life-limiting cases. Keep in mind that overweight dogs may develop arthritis years earlier than those of normal weight, causing undue pain and suffering! When Bulldog puppies are allowed to grow too quickly, the cartilage in their joints may not attach to the bone properly. This problem is known as osteochondritis dissecans or OCD. If this occurs, surgery may be required to fix the problem. Feed a large-breed puppy diet rather than an adult or a regular puppy diet. Weigh your puppy every three to four weeks. The cranial cruciate ligament is one of the four tough bands of tissue that hold each knee together. A torn cranial cruciate ligament is a common injury in active dogs, which includes your English Bulldog. Usually surgical correction is done to stabilize the knee and help prevent crippling arthritis. Physical therapy and multimodal pain management are necessary to get the best outcome. Keeping him at the right weight, feeding a high-quality diet, and avoiding too much twisting of the knees like playing Frisbee are key in avoiding this painful injury. Spinal Deformities Bulldogs are more likely than other canines to be born with spinal deformities a condition called hemivertebrae , which may lead to spinal cord damage, instability, or disability. Unfortunately, Bulldogs can inherit or develop a number of different eye conditions, some of which may cause blindness if not treated right away, and most of which can be extremely painful! We will evaluate his eyes at every examination to look for any signs of concern. Distichiasis is a condition caused by extra hairs that grow inside of the eyelid and rub on the surface of the eye. This is one of the most commonly inherited diseases in dogs, and your Bulldog is more likely than other dogs to develop this painful condition. If untreated, these abnormal hairs can cause corneal ulcers and chronic eye pain. Several treatment options are available, and the prognosis is good once the hairs have been permanently removed. Entropion is a condition where the eyelid rolls inward, causing the eyelashes to rub against the cornea surface of the eyeball. This is an extremely irritating and painful condition that can ultimately lead to blindness. It can happen in any dog breed; however, your Bulldog is especially at risk for this heritable disorder. Surgical correction is usually successful if performed early. Dry eye, also known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca or KCS, is common in Bulldogs. The tear glands no longer produce enough tears to keep the eye moist, which results in sore, itchy eyes and infections. Symptoms include a thick discharge, squinting, pawing at the eye, or a dull, dry appearance of the eye. This is a painful condition; please call us immediately if you notice any of these signs. Dogs have a third eyelid that contains a gland that produces about one-third of the fluid that bathes the eye. If the gland is sore or swollen, it looks like a red blob in the corner of the eye. This condition is called cherry eye, and it can occur very suddenly in one or both eyes. If this happens to him, we may treat it with ointment first, but surgery is often the best option. Bladder or Kidney Stones There are a few different types of stones that can form in the kidney or in the bladder, and Bulldogs are more likely to develop them than other breeds. Call us immediately! Respiratory Distress Syndrome This disease, also known as brachycephalic syndrome, affects dogs with a short nose, like your Bulldog. As a consequence, the soft palate the soft part at the back of the roof of the mouth , is too long and hangs down into the airway. The nostrils are often too small, and sometimes the trachea, or windpipe, is narrow and undersized. All of these things lead to a narrow and obstructed airway. Many of these dogs can barely breathe! Watch for exercise intolerance, loud breathing, coughing, bluish gums, or fainting. With his short nose, he is also more likely to develop other problems, such as flatulence from excessive air intake, pneumonia from aspirating food, or heat stroke. In severe cases, surgical correction may be recommended. Bleeding Disorders There are several types of inherited bleeding disorders that occur in dogs. They range in severity from very mild to very severe. Many times a pet seems normal until a serious injury occurs or surgery is performed, and then severe bleeding can result. Reproductive Difficulties Breeds with a large head and small pelvis are more prone to difficulties during the birthing process. Her pelvis is just too small to pass puppies and a C-section is often required for her health and that of her puppies. If you are interested in breeding your English Bulldog, speak with us first. We can help you make an informed decision based on body conformation of both sire and dam. Heart Disease Bulldogs are prone to multiple types of heart disease , which can occur both early and later in life. Veterinary dental care and weight control go a long way in preventing heart disease. Multiple Skin Problems Your English Bulldog is susceptible to different kinds of skin infections and diseases. One of them is caused by yeast Malassezia dermatitis. When it infects the ears, it causes itching, redness, and an accumulation of brown waxy discharge. On the skin, it leads to greasy, hairless areas, especially on the neck and throat, with a characteristic odor. Another common skin disease called seborrhea can cause dry, flaky skin or greasy, oily skin. These diseases make your pet itchy and uncomfortable. The earlier you call to have his skin problems checked, the less likely it is that you will end up caring for an itchy, bald, smelly dog. Mange Demodex is a microscopic mite that lives in the hair follicles of dogs. All dogs have them. In mild cases, pet owners may notice a few dry, irritated, hairless lesions. These often occur on the face or feet and may or may not be itchy. Secondary skin infections may occur. Prompt veterinary care is important to keep the disease from getting out of hand. Many pets seem to outgrow the problem, while others require lifelong management. Laryngeal Paralysis Older Bulldogs may develop this disease, in which the vocal cords become paralyzed and hang down into the airway. Watch for noisy breathing, especially when exercising or in hot, humid weather. In severe cases a pet can collapse and have difficulty breathing. Mild cases can be managed with changes at home and possibly medication. Cancer Cancer is a leading cause of death in older dogs. Your English Bulldog will likely live longer than many other breeds and therefore is more prone to get cancer in his golden years. Many cancers are cured by surgically removing them, and some types are treatable with chemotherapy. Early detection is critical! Dental Abnormalities Teeth abnormalities are often genetically induced and are relatively common in dogs, especially in purebred dogs like your Bulldog. An overbite or underbite is called a malocclusion, or a bad bite. Oligodontia is a condition where only a few teeth are present. Misaligned teeth can also occur and cause lots of problems, but can usually be corrected with braces or extractions. Yes, dogs can get braces! Taking Care of Your Bulldog at Home Much of what you can do to keep your dog happy and healthy is common sense, just like it is for people. Be sure to adhere to the schedule of examinations and vaccinations that we recommend for her. Another very important step in caring for your pet is signing up for pet health insurance. There will certainly be medical tests and procedures she will need throughout her life and pet health insurance will help you cover those costs. Routine Care, Diet, and Exercise Build her routine care into your schedule to help your English Bulldog live longer, stay healthier, and be happier during her lifetime. We cannot overemphasize the importance of a proper diet and exercise routine. Supervise your pet as you would a toddler. Keep doors closed, pick up after yourself, and block off rooms as necessary. She has low grooming needs. Brush her coat as needed, at least weekly. Clean her ears weekly, even as a puppy. Her deep wrinkles need to be cleaned and dried often to prevent infections. As an adult she can have a tendency to be lazy, so you must ensure she receives adequate exercise by providing a daily walk. She is sensitive to temperature extremes; avoid any prolonged exposure and be very alert to the signs of heat stress. Feed a high-quality diet appropriate for her age. What to Watch For Any abnormal symptom could be a sign of serious disease, or it could just be a minor or temporary problem. The important thing is to be able to tell when to seek veterinary help, and how urgently. Many diseases cause dogs to have a characteristic combination of symptoms, which together can be a clear signal that your Bulldog needs help. How to care for your English bulldog puppy Posted on by Kiran English bulldogs are one of the exclusive dog breeds known for their cuteness and sturdiness at the same time. This bulldog breed is one of the ideal choices to have as a pet. Belonging to the brachycephalic dog breeds, English bulldog puppies often requires additional care. As a pet lover who owns an English bulldog puppy, there are certain factors you need to consider to ensure optimum health of your pooch, continue reading to get an insight about some of the important factors. Diet schedule As puppies require additional nutrient supplement when compared to the adult bulldogs, you can start feeding your puppy thrice a day, at least for the first four months. From the fifth month, you can cut back to feeding him twice a day and once he is a year old, you are good to feed him only once a day. Even though, he will happily accept all the anything edible item that you give him, it can be dangerous to his system. Always restrain your dog from ingesting the following food items, which can be toxic to his system. Chocolate: can have adverse affect on his heart and nervous system Avocado : can cause diarrhea or vomiting Alcohol: can cause intoxication Walnuts: known to affect the nervous system of English bulldog puppies and even cause muscle damage Caffeine: can induce diarrhea and vomiting Monitoring health Once you have bought your English bulldog puppy home, it is crucial to have a close eye on him for the first couple of weeks. It is during this period, he will be experiencing several changes from diet to medications. Keep him hydrated by giving him plenty of fresh water; the strategy can also help you to prevent him from eating a lot than necessary. Health checkup and treatment against pests Your new guest can easily fall prey to different pests like ticks, fleas, lice etc. Closely monitor your puppy, scan his skin for any irritations caused by excessive scratching and also look for redness in skin. If you find any abnormal skin issues, you need to take him to a local veterinarian. While you are at the veterinary clinic, you can subject your puppy for a complete checkup to sort out any issues pertaining to ear, heart, lung etc. It is important to get the ear of your bulldog inspected by the veterinarian; pests like tick and mites can easily find their way through to his ears to make a living out of the dirt and debris. Therefore, while you are at home with him, always give special attention if he seems to scratch his ears or shake his head excessively. English bulldog puppies are always an ideal choice as pets, as a caring pet owner, it is your duty to spend some time with your pooch, train and let him socialize at a very young age. Blog Posts.

While spearheading the Royal Guide Dogs Association of Australia breeding program, he conducted the crossbreeding of a standard poodle and Labrador retriever in view of it being a hypoallergenic guide dog for blind people. The first example of this type of dog, called Sultan, went to live with a lady in Hawaii, where other breeders saw him as an inspiration and this is how Australian Labradoodle puppies started. Both the International Australian Labradoodles Association and the Australian Labradoodles Association of America are working hard to incorporate more intergenerational breeding so these dog breeders can register this type of dog as a purebred dog. Its gentle, obedient and intelligent personality combined with a hypoallergenic coat make it ideal for family members with allergies, but it also makes an excellent service or therapy dog. Labradoodle Puppies Lifespan When properly taken care of, healthy dogs tend to live anywhere from 10 to 13 years. The lifespan of our Labradoodle puppies for sale is slightly above average at 12 to 14 years. Here are the life stages of multigenerational Australian Labradoodles: Puppyhood: First five months Adolescence: Between five months and two years Adulthood: Between two and three years Middle age: Between seven years and 10 years Senior: Over 10 years Labradoodles need the most attention and care in the first and last stages of their life. During puppyhood, their minds are highly impressionable, which is ideal for training. During their senior years, Labradoodles are more susceptible to health problems, which means owners need to keep a watchful eye. Labradoodle Size The size of labradoodle puppies for sale directly relates to the size of their parents and which generation of breed Labradoodle breeders chose. The larger the puppies, the larger the adult dog will be, and the faster their growth will be coming out of the puppy stage. A standard labradoodle puppy will weigh from pounds by the time it reaches two months of age. By a year old, it will have grown dramatically to up to 80 pounds, depending on the size of its parents. Medium Labradoodles occupy a spectrum of sizes between standard and mini Labradoodles, with the specifics depending heavily on the details of the breeding pair that birthed them and the breeding program they come from. Labradoodle Puppies Temperament While Labradoodle breeders originally bred the Australian Labradoodles as therapy dogs, their fun, friendly personalities made them popular pets. Now you can find these sociable dogs in homes across the globe. Here are some of the top personality traits of our Labradoodle puppies for sale. They tend to do best in active households where they can work off all that pent-up energy. You can fulfill their needs through the following activities: Walks or jogs: Labradoodles make great walking companions and can even keep up with you during a jog. Playing in the yard: Enjoy a game of fetch with your furry friend in the yard or just let it loose on its own. Dog sports: If you stay active through sports, consider making your labradoodle a part of your routine. Bring it on bike rides, go for a run together or kick a ball around in the yard. Obstacle courses: Set up an obstacle course for your dog using household items. Scavenger hunt: Creating a scavenger hunt for your canine is a great way to exercise its body and brain. In general, Labradoodles need anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes of exercise a day. You can also enroll them later at a Labradoodle puppy alumni school for proper training. Friendliness What makes Labradoodles the perfect puppy compare to other dog breeds is their ability to get along with just about anyone. They inherit this trait from their Labrador retriever parent, a breed also known for its outgoing nature. You can trust your labradoodle to form friendships with everyone, from children and older adults to strangers and other puppies. Thanks to their affectionate, sociable personalities, Labradoodles make great pets for first-time owners, families, or anyone looking for a companion. Intelligence Thanks to their poodle parent breeds, Labradoodles are incredibly intelligent dogs. Because Labradoodles are intelligent, they often crave mental stimulation. Labradoodle Puppies Grooming Our Labradoodle puppies for sale have a variety of coat textures that dog owners enjoy, but in general, their low shedding coat needs brushing at least twice a week. Not only does this keep them tangle-free but it also removes excess debris from their coat, keeping them fresh and hygienic. Regularly trim the hair around their eyes and in between their paws to prevent these problem areas from causing irritation. Pooches with fleece coats tend to have longer fur and benefit the most from going to a professional groomer — although every dog loves getting pampered once in a while.

We specialize in breeding Mini Goldendoodles as well as a few other breeds. We also have partnered up with several other high quality breeders that raise mini goldendoodle pups that meet our strict genetic criteria and testing. 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.

golden labrador puppies mn - Below, I will mention a number of reasons why your German Shepherd might bite your feet or ankles and the signs to look for. It wants attention The reason why it bites your feet could be that it wants your attention. This would be more likely to be the reason if it starts biting your feet when you have not been giving it attention for a while. It would also be more likely if it does it when you had just left it alone for a long time perhaps because you were at work. If that is why your German Shepherd bites your feet then it would help to give it more attention in the form of exercise, training and playing games such as tug of war in addition to training it not to bite your feet. Related post: How to tell if your German Shepherd loves you It is teething If your German Shepherd is a puppy then the reason why it bites your feet is likely to be that it is teething. When they are teething their gums will be painful and biting and chewing on things helps to soothe their gums. This is why they tend to bite and chew on things a lot as puppies. Another reason why it might bite on your feet is that German Shepherd puppies explore and interact with the world with their mouths and noses as much as they do with their eyes. As a result, it will bite on your feet a lot because it is interacting with it and your feet likely have strong smells to your German Shepherd. If your German Shepherd is still a puppy then it is very important to take the time now to train it not to bite your feet and to behave the way that you want it to. You can do this using the tips mentioned below. You can do so by following the tips given below. You have inadvertently been reinforcing the behavior It could be the case that you have been inadvertently reinforcing the feet biting. If your method to get it to stop biting your feet is to give it things that it wants such as toys or a treat then it could have learned that biting your feet results in it getting things that it wants. This would be more likely to be the reason if it is older than 6 months old and it is no longer teething. Instead of giving it things that it wants, when it bites your feet, a better option would be to withdraw your attention and to not allow it to bite your feet by leaving the room, for a few minutes, if necessary. Then after waiting for a few moments, you would go back to giving it attention and withdraw your attention again whenever it starts biting. Excitement The reason why your German Shepherd bites your feet could be that it gets excited and it is trying to show its excitement. It would also be more likely if it tends to show other signs of excitement when biting your feet. In this case, something that you could try would be to stop it from biting your feet by leaving the room and not giving it attention. You would then reward it when it shows signs of behaving the way that you want it to. Doing this will teach it that biting your feet does not get it what it wants. It is exploring Dogs interact with the environment using their mouths and their noses as much as they do with their eyes and even more so when they are puppies. This would be more likely if it is a puppy. Even if this is the case it will still be important to get it to stop by training it not to bite your feet. Things to consider Before getting your German Shepherd to stop biting your feet it would help to know exactly why it is doing it. Below, I will mention a few particularly helpful things that you can consider. When it started doing it It would help to consider when it started biting your feet. Whereas, if it started to do it suddenly it would be more likely that there is something else causing it. Some things to consider would be: If you moved home If someone was aggressive towards it If someone moved away How old your German Shepherd is If your German Shepherd is still young then it would make it much more likely that it bites your feet naturally because it is teething. If it is an adult then it would be more likely that it never learned not to do it. How aggressively it bites your feet It would also help to consider how aggressively your German Shepherd bites your feet. If it does it aggressively by showing its teeth, growling and its hair stands up then it would be a more serious problem and you should seek the advice of a vet or a certified dog behaviorist. When and where it bites your feet Considering when and where it bites your feet would likely help a lot in determining why it does it. If it tends to bite your feet when it is time for it to get a walk then it is likely trying to remind you of that. How to get your German Shepherd to stop biting your feet There are a number of things that you can do about your German Shepherd biting your feet that I will mention below. Train it not to The first method that you can try is positive reinforcement training. This is where you reward the behaviors that you want to see from your German Shepherd so that it learns to give them a positive association. To use it to get it to stop biting, you would: Stand up and prevent it from biting your feet by leaving the room if necessary. Wait a few moments and then go back to giving it attention and then prevent it from biting them again if it starts biting Repeat the above until it learns that biting causes it to lose your attention Reward it with a treat when it does particularly well You can watch the video below to see more on how to get your German Shepherd to stop biting your feet with positive reinforcement training along with more tips. Avoid reinforcing the behavior If you tend to give it things it wants in order to get it to stop biting your feet, it could be the case that it has learned to do it more in order to get more rewards. Instead, of rewarding your German Shepherd with things when it starts biting your feet, you can try the positive reinforcement technique mentioned above. Give it other things to chew on If your German Shepherd feels the need to bite things then it would likely help to give it some things that it is ok for it to chew on. Some things that you could give it would be bones, dog chews or toys. Be consistent It is unlikely that you will be able to completely get it to stop biting your feet in one training session. However, you will be able to make larger improvements if you are consistent with it over the course of weeks and months.

Knowing how to discipline a German Shepherd for biting and nipping will not only help save your hands and legs from tiny razor-sharp teeth… But teaching your GSD puppy to stop biting can also help you with valuable training skills! How do you discipline a German Shepherd for biting and nipping? Follow these steps to discipline your German Shepherd for biting or nipping you. If they still continue to bite and nip, calmly get up and walk away to let them calm down. You can also get your puppy to stop biting by working on their impulse control. Never use physical punishment, yell at your dog, or cause them to fear you. Instead, use reward-based training to teach your GSD what behavior you want them to do instead. There is also extra information you need to know about disciplining your German Shepherd for biting, such as: Why your puppy bites and nips you How to avoid biting and nipping in the first place And what not to do! You might find it cute that your fuzzy little German Shepherd puppy biting your hand or ankles is cute but… Think again! Imagine your dog all grown up as a nearly 90 to pound athletic powerhouse — full of large, adult-size teeth. Some people incorrectly assume that discipline means punishment. This is your essential guide to learn how to discipline your German Shepherd for biting and nipping. Why is my German Shepherd puppy biting and nipping? Is your sweet puppy biting and nipping you all of a sudden? Read below to find out why. When my adorable German Shepherd puppy came home to me her antics were so much fun! I loved to move the toys to play her favorite games and keep her entertained. But, my hands looked like I had accidentally adopted a baby tiger after our playtimes! There were scratches, puncture wounds, and she could even draw blood! German Shepherd puppies love to play and do so by barking, play growling, and nipping their little brothers and sisters. But now, you and your family are the littermates! Puppies quickly learn that if they bite too hard their littermates stop the play, and the fun ends. This is a valuable life lesson for living with people and families. And even studies show that removing a German Shepherd puppy before they are 8-weeks-old could negatively affect their behavior as adults source. Your new German Shepherd must continue to learn bite inhibition skills when you first bring them home. Is yours? German Shepherds get their razor-sharp baby teeth around 2-weeks-old. The baby teeth have usually all grown in by 6 to 7 weeks of age. So, when your pup comes home, around 8-weeks of age to live with you, all 28 of their baby teeth are ready for nipping and biting. When the adult teeth grow in they can irritate the gums and cause your dog discomfort. This leads to your pup looking for things to chew to help soothe their teething pains. You might find tiny teeth on your carpet or on the ground, but most of the baby teeth are swallowed by your pup. Chewing is a natural way to help the pain go away and is very normal. During these times a frozen Kong filled with a mix of treats helps to cool the inflamed gums and soothe their aches. Keep a few frozen Kongs on hand during the teething stage to offer your German Shepherd puppy to stop them from chewing and biting everything in sight! Your German Shepherd comes from a long line of working dogs that were originally bred to herd sheep. These instincts still remain with your dog to this day. German Shepherds bite and nip your ankles due to this natural herding ability and powerful prey drive. This need to herd is in their genes and, unfortunately, your ankles will have to do when there are no sheep to round up! Absence or Lack of Mental Stimulation A bored, mentally understimulated German Shepherd might act out and need brain games. German Shepherds, even puppies, are highly intelligent dogs with a never-ending supply of stamina. Mental stimulation exhausts their minds and bodies! A pup that lacks proper mental stimulation finds themselves looking for ways to keep their brains busy, which generally means getting into trouble. Too Tired or Lack of Sleep A wild German Shepherd probably needs a long nap to help them become their sweet self again. Did you know that puppies sleep 18 to 20 hours a day source? A German Shepherd puppy who is nipping and biting a lot might just be cranky from lack of sleep, and not willfully acting out. Begin teaching them by using body language, hand signals, voice commands, and showing them the right behaviors you want from them. If they continue aggressively biting you, place them in a short time out. Always use positive training and avoid harsh punishment and corrections. You can practice these techniques by following the steps below for disciplining your German Shepherd for biting. Teach your German Shepherd bite inhibition during play. You can teach your German Shepherd bite inhibition to help deter their nipping! There might come a time when your dog is in fear, pain, or discomfort and they put their mouth on you. If your German Shepherd has learned bite inhibition during their play, then they understand to not bite down hard and avoid injuring your skin. You can play these fun games with your German Shepherd while teaching them to not bite you. Slowly move your hand or leg away from them. Try to relax your hand and body so that your puppy is less interested in holding on with their teeth. Stop all play and interaction for five seconds. Then resume activity, but remember no interaction means no talking, no eye contact, and no petting. Sometimes, those sharp puppy teeth are too painful or break the skin! Show your puppy that biting or nipping ends the play. If your German Shepherd is aggressively biting you, show them that this behavior ends the play. But hard bites that draw blood or break your skin mean no more playtime. How to show your German Shepherd that biting and nipping ends play If your dog hurts you painfully during play, quietly and calmly turn away and stand up. Walk away from your puppy, preferably into another room of the house. Leaving play when your GSD becomes too rough is a way to calm them by withdrawing your attention from their rough behavior. Place them in a short time out for continued biting. Sometimes, a short time-out is required for hard nipping and biting. There will be times when your puppy is acting out so badly you might need to place them in a short time out. Time outs are not meant to be punishment, but a moment of calm. Do NOT let them become worked up or stressed if your separation is too much for them. Give your German Shepherd the right things to chew. Help your German Shepherd stop biting you by giving them something else to chew on. You already know your German Shepherd is biting you, so anticipate the biting behavior and substitute a toy for your hand or ankles. Even better… Keep a few small toys in your pocket to offer them as they race around the house. What toys do German Shepherds like to bite and chew? The key to using this toy is to roll it away from yourself when your puppy is aggressively nipping and biting you. Read this hand-picked content… just for you! Instead of letting your dog chew on whatever they want, find appropriate toys to reduce their boredom and give them a place to put their teeth. Redirect biting ankles and legs by using a food lure. A tasty treat comes in handy when your GSD bites at your legs and ankles. Your legs and feet are also enticing since they move and change directions frequently. When your German Shepherd bites your ankles or feet, calmly take a treat out of your pocket and hold the treat near the side of your leg. This disciplining technique also has the added benefit of teaching your dog the first steps of walking nicely on a leash with you. Train a gentle mouth when taking food from your hand. Teach your dog that only a gentle mouth gets its reward. Training your German Shepherd to take treats or kibble with a gentle mouth is extremely easy. Teaching your GSD puppy what is acceptable pressure with their mouth helps to avoid their sharp teeth from damaging your skin or tearing your clothes accidentally. Training a soft mouth with your German Shepherd When feeding your dog a treat, keep the treat pinches between your fingers slightly. This is so your puppy has to lick or nibble at the treat to get it. Instead, pull your hand back slowly. Now, offer your puppy the treat again.

Puppies Have you ever reached down to play with a German Shepherd puppy, only to have that adorable little fur-ball pierce your skin with its razor-sharp puppy teeth? When I brought Allie into the family, she was fully in the German Shepherd puppy biting phase — so that first month was tough! Unfortunately, biting is an inevitable phase of puppyhood — it comes with the territory when you decide to be a puppy parent. My goal with this guide is to get you through the biting stage with as few battle scars as possible. Why do German Shepherd Puppies Bite? Up until this time, your puppy was with its littermates, and playtime meant lots of mouthy, nipping fun. Accordingly, this is the only way your GSD knows how to play! A German Shepherd puppy also uses their mouths to explore different things like toys — or hands, ankles, furniture… pretty much anything they can get their mouth around. Your puppy could also be teething, which can increase their mouthy behavior. Just be patient as you work through the German Shepherd puppy biting phase — give your pup time to learn to be gentle when playing or seeking your attention. Nothing is worse than an ankle-biter! I was very lucky not to have this problem with Allie. Why does your German Shepherd puppy target the ankles? Because your GSD is a working dog trying to do its job — herd you around the house like livestock. German Shepherds were originally bred for herding flocks of sheep. Your furry pal may also think heel nipping is just a really fun game. Using a toy as a distraction and keeping your pup active will help nip ankle nipping in the bud! Because she was too busy biting hands! There are lots of reasons why a pup may decide to start biting your hands. For one, good things treats, toys, love, attention come from hands. Also, hands are almost like swinging toys from the perspective of a playful pup — too enticing to pass up! How to Discourage Biting Behavior While the German Shepherd puppy biting phase is a rite of passage, there are some ways you can discourage bad biting behavior without harsh discipline. This is one of the most effective ways to teach your German Shepherd bite inhibition — or how to be gentle with her teeth. Think about when your pup was rolling and playing with their brothers and sisters — if your GSD was too rough, their sibling would let out a yelp. This trick worked great with Allie! Just make sure to be consistent until your pup gets the idea and learns to master the power of her jaws. Puppies will be puppies! Redirect the biting to an appropriate toy. For example, when your fuzzy friend latches onto your ankles, give a little puppy-like yelp, and then whip out a toy and encourage your dog to chew on that instead. Tug-of-war is the perfect game for the puppy biting phase. Socialize your puppy as much as possible. Other dogs are great at teaching your puppy that they playing too rough and biting too hard. Try a deterrent to prevent your dog from chewing or biting. If all else fails, there are lots of products designed to deter your dog from bad biting behavior. How do they work? Well, they taste awful. But if used correctly, they can definitely work. This is still attention — your puppy bites, your puppy gets attention. Otherwise, your pup may see this as a fun new game, kind of like tug-of-war but with your hands or feet as the toy. You want your furball to love playing with you! The goal here is to encourage your German Shepherd to play as much as ever but to play gently. As a pup, Allie thought she should greet everyone by jumping in their face and nipping — kind of like a kiss hello, but with teeth. And as she got bigger, it was harder to control. But trust me, it got old quickly. Be proactive. If I knew someone was coming over, I would put Allie in another room or in her crate. Once our visitor was in the house and the initial excitement had passed, I would let her out. By keeping her from greeting people right when they walked through the door, I could minimize her overzealous behavior. This is a simple command that teaches your dog to stay in her place until you give a release command. This is another way to allow the initial excitement to pass and your German Shepherd to calm down a bit before greeting anyone. Redirect attention to a toy like I talked about earlier. Fold your arms and turn away. Keep turning until your GSD stops jumping, then praise them and use a treat as a reward. What to Do If Biting Becomes Aggressive Although puppy mouthing is normal, there can be cases where biting can signal problems and possibly even aggression. Look for physical differences in your pup. If your puppy is having a moment of aggression, their body may stiffen when snarling, and bites will typically be more painful than during regular play. Also, if your GSD puppy is biting out of fear or frustration, you may need to take action. These types of behavior are not something your pup will just grow out of. While the biting phase will inevitably end, you may find yourself asking the infamous question — when do German Shepherds calm down!? I asked myself and our vet this question more than once! It honestly just depends. Sure, she had her calm moments thanks in part to her training , but she was still very hyper especially in more excitable moments. The type of German Shepherd dog is yet another variable that plays a role in its energy levels. So when do German Shepherds calm down? It really depends on your individual German Shepherd.
