The Bullenbeisser was used as a hunting dog for centuries to hunt bear, wild boar, and deer, tasked with catching and holding the prey until hunters arrived. Over time, Bullenbeissers lost their jobs on estates and began to be used by farmers and butchers to guard and drive cattle. The Boxer we know today was developed in the late 19th century when a Munich man named Georg Alt bred a brindle-colored female Bullenbeisser named Flora with a local dog of unknown origin. Schecken was then bred to an English Bulldog named Tom to produce a dog named Flocki, who became the first Boxer to be entered in the German Stud Book after winning at a Munich show that had a special event for Boxers. One of her pups was a white female named Meta von der Passage, considered to be the mother of the Boxer breed, even though photographs of her show that she bore little resemblance to the modern Boxer. Our great line of sires all trace directly back to this female. She was a substantially built, low to the ground, brindle and white parti-color, lacking in underjaw and exceedingly lippy. As a producing bitch few in any breed can match her record. She consistently whelped puppies of marvelous type and rare quality. Those of her offspring sired by Flock St. Salvator and Wotan dominate all present-day. The breed became known in other parts of Europe in the late s.

Boxer puppies with good temperaments are curious, playful, and open to approaching and being held by people. Socialization, early exposure to diverse experiences, people, and places, is crucial to ensure they grow up as well-rounded, friendly dogs. Enrolling them in puppy kindergarten classes and regular interactions with visitors, neighbors, and various environments help develop their social skills. Boxer Health Boxers are generally a healthy breed, but like all dogs, they have certain health conditions to be aware of. Here are some conditions to watch out for, along with precautions: Cancer : Boxers are prone to mast cell tumors, lymphoma, and brain tumors. White Boxers with excessive white markings can get sunburned and may develop skin cancer. Apply sunscreen to their ears, nose, and coat when they go outdoors. This condition can lead to fainting and sudden death. A veterinary cardiologist can diagnose it after detecting a heart murmur. Affected dogs should not be bred. Boxer cardiomyopathy BCM : An inherited condition causing an irregular heartbeat due to an electrical conduction disorder. It can result in weakness, collapse, or sudden death. Detection is challenging, leading to unexpected fatalities. Dogs showing signs of this condition should not be bred. While some dogs show signs of pain and lameness, others may not exhibit discomfort. X-ray screening helps detect hip dysplasia, and affected dogs should not be bred. Hypothyroidism : Caused by a deficiency of thyroid hormone, leading to infertility, obesity, mental dullness, and lack of energy. It can be managed with daily thyroid replacement pills. Corneal Dystrophy : Non-inflammatory eye diseases inherited in Boxers, affecting one or more corneal layers, causing opaque areas in the eyes. A weakened immune system can lead to demodectic mange, resulting in localized or generalized skin issues. Gastric dilatation-volvulus GDV , also called Bloat or Torsion : A life-threatening condition more common in deep-chested dogs like Boxers. Feeding habits and exercise patterns can contribute to GDV. Immediate medical attention is crucial. Allergies : Boxers are prone to both environmental and food-related allergies. Itchy, scaly skin should be examined by a vet. Responsible breeding is essential to reduce the risk of deafness. Boxer Care Boxers are indoor dogs due to their short noses and coats, making them unsuitable for outdoor living. However, they enjoy playing in a fenced yard. Engage them in play or walk them twice daily for at least half an hour to keep their muscles toned and their energy satisfied. Activities like fetch, long walks, or dog sports like agility and flyball are great options. Adequate exercise ensures good behavior—a tired Boxer is a well-behaved Boxer. Training is crucial for Boxers, as their size and strength can inadvertently harm people. Their temperament, being happy and excitable, requires early and consistent training using firm, fair methods with positive reinforcement through praise, play, and food rewards. Be consistent to avoid pushing boundaries. Settle them down before training class with a walk or play session for better focus. Housetraining requires patience; some Boxers are trained by four months, while others take longer. Regular potty breaks and praising them outdoors are essential. Crate training is recommended for their successful training. Boxer Feeding For an ideal Boxer diet , choose high-quality food suited for medium-sized breeds with high energy. Optimize their chances for a long, healthy life by providing proper nutrition. To prevent weight gain, adhere to a regular feeding schedule with two meals per day. Limit treats and avoid leaving food out all day. Consult your vet for personalized recommendations based on factors like weight, energy levels, and overall health. Boxer Coat Color And Grooming Boxers boast a sleek, short coat with tight skin, accentuating their athletic bodies. They come in fawn or brindle colors, occasionally with white markings. Fawn ranges from light tan to mahogany, while brindle displays striking black stripes on a fawn background. White markings should not cover more than one-third of the coat, and excessive white is discouraged due to potential health issues like skin cancer and deafness. They lack the gene for a solid black coat, so black Boxers are not seen. Bathing should be done as needed. Maintaining dental hygiene and nail care are essential. Regularly brushing their teeth prevents periodontal disease, and trimming nails every few weeks keeps their feet in good condition. Starting grooming routines early in puppyhood helps them become accustomed to the process, ensuring positive veterinary exams and handling as adults. Regular grooming also provides an opportunity to check for any potential health issues, such as sores, rashes, or signs of infection, promoting early detection and care. Boxer Children And Other Pets Boxers are fond of kids and make excellent playmates for active older children. However, their rambunctious nature may be too much for toddlers, possibly causing accidental knocks during play. Never leave a dog unsupervised with a child. With proper socialization, Boxers can also get along well with other dogs and cats, particularly if raised together. Boxer Rescue Groups Boxers are often purchased without any clear understanding of what goes into owning one. There are many Boxers in need of adoption and or fostering. There are a number of rescues that we have not listed. Many can be found with a quick internet search.

A dog brings so much joy and love into your life that sometimes it's hard to imagine not having a canine companion. If you're considering adding a dog to your family, then there are several different traits that you probably have in mind for your new puppy. For example, you most likely want a dog that is loving and affectionate, a great playmate for your children, and patient. When it comes to the search for the perfect dog, there are almost endless options at your disposal. A Boxer has long been considered a great pick for families with children. This lively pup is full of energy and absolutely loves to play, making him an excellent playmate that can keep up with even the most active kids. However, it's also important to remember that a Boxer is also big, so keep this in mind if you plan to have your pup play with very small children. Of course, with proper training, your canine pal will know how to behave appropriately around kids and therefore, can be an excellent companion for years to come. A Boxer is a durable breed, so he can withstand pretty much anything your kids can dish out. A Boxer is very patient and tolerates children very well. A Boxer is very affectionate and loving. A Boxer is protective of his family and will look out for your kids. A Boxer loves to play and will happily run around with your children all day long if given the chance. Getting To Know the Boxer Undoubtedly a Boxer's loving and playful personality makes him a great match for families with children, but there are some important things to keep in mind when it comes to this sprightly breed. Most importantly, a Boxer is big and very rambunctious. This can be a frightening combination for very small children. Therefore, if you plan to bring a Boxer into a home with a baby or very young kids, you will definitely want to keep this critical point in mind. Of course, you should always supervise children around any dog, but large dogs especially need to be watched closely when interacting with very small kids. This is just one example of why it's always important to know the basics of any dog breed before you make your final decision to add him to your family. The females are usually about .A male Boxer weighs between 65 and 80 pounds, while females usually weigh between 50 and 65 pounds. This is especially true if you have children that you want to grow up with your puppy. A Boxer has a life expectancy of about 10 to 12 years, and since he is so large, getting a puppy when your kids are already 4 or 5 years old could be a great compromise. His nails should be trimmed about once a month depending on how much he wears them down on his own playing outside. It's also very important with this breed to keep up with regular dental care, and daily teeth brushing is highly recommended to avoid tartar buildup. A Boxer is prone to several conditions including hip dysplasia , elbow dysplasia, heart conditions, and thyroid issues. This breed is also very susceptible to extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, so he should always live indoors with his family. He also loves to run wild and chase just about anything, so it's important to remember to keep him on a leash unless you are in a fenced-in yard. Although a Boxer loves to play and enjoys a number of different activities, swimming is not one of them. This large pup tends to have difficulty staying afloat which can make him a little afraid of the water. A Boxer excels in things like agility training and tracking exercises and can gain many benefits from participating in these types of classes. A puppy is especially jumpy and rowdy, and therefore, needs to be reigned in early on with proper training and positive socialization. Although very smart, a Boxer also tends to have a mind of his own and can get bored with doing the same thing over and over again. Therefore, for the best results keep training sessions short and sweet. Boxers and Kids Basically, a Boxer is an excellent choice for a family with children. He is an incredible playmate and is extremely devoted to his family. Still, as is true with any breed, it is important to properly prepare your children and your home for any new pup that you plan to add to the mix. Talk with your kids about how to interact appropriately with a dog, how to handle an animal, and other basic rules that you want them to follow, such as not going by a dog when he is eating. It's also important to prep your dog for being around children, so make sure you start a training program immediately, give your Boxer ample opportunities for early socialization experiences, and introduce him to your children in a positive way.

These boxes typically include durable toys made from tougher materials that can withstand powerful jaws. If your dog is less interested in chewing, choose a box with softer, plush toys. Customizable options: Take note of what gets your dog excited. Some boxes are more treat-oriented, providing a wide variety of snacks, while others emphasize exciting new toys. Pet Treater has options for treat only or toy only boxes to suit every dog. Puppy-Oriented Box: If you're a pet parent to a young fur baby, selecting a puppy-oriented subscription box can make a significant difference. Puppies have different needs compared to adult dogs, so a box specifically designed for puppies, like the PupBox from Petco , can better cater to those unique requirements. FAQ What is a dog subscription box? A dog subscription box is a recurring delivery of dog-related products. It typically includes a mix of toys, treats, grooming products, and other accessories.

Can you get a dog subscription box for heavy chewers? Absolutely, Bark Super Chewer is a dog subscription box designed for heavy chewers. Its boxes include toys made from more durable materials to withstand aggressive chewing. Bark Super Chewer is a box from the same creators as BarkBox, but it is specifically designed for dogs that need tougher toys. LinkedIn Subscription boxes have risen to popularity in the last decade largely due to convenience. Subscriptions to beauty items, health and wellness items, clothing, personal care and yes, of course, dog supplies have become immensely popular. Why not bring your pooch in on the fun?

Others cater to dogs who have special dietary concerns or want a meal plan a little more personalized. Plus, some give you the ability to tweak the delivery frequency, so you can skip or pause delivery depending on your needs. Here are some of the top dog subscription box services for you to consider.

Image Credit: Rescue Box RescueBox RescueBox is a huge favorite of dog lovers for two main reasons — the items in the boxes are recognized for their quality and each box feeds a minimum of shelter animals with your purchase, so you can feel good about helping other dogs while spoiling your own pooch.

Choose from a variety of box styles such as treats only, chews only, a mix of the two, or even a super chew box to ensure the right fit for your pooch. Dog parents love buying from a small business but say the treats can be difficult for some dogs with sensitive stomachs used to kibble. This is a great choice for dogs with allergies or special preferences. Why not stick with what you know works for your dog? KONG toys are great for super chewers because they are so tough. The monthly subscription sends two types of handmade treats, one skincare or gear item, and your choice of dog clothing or other items. This box is great for dog parents who want to pamper their dog with the best skincare and gear items on the market. If your dog is a heavy chewer, plush toys will be chewed up in a matter of minutes. You will need durable toys for your dog. On the other hand, if your dog is a dainty dog who loves to snuggle, a plushie might be perfect. Pay attention to what toys and treats your dog currently likes and what might be dangerous for them to play with or eat. Are you in the market for treats, toys, clothing, accessories, or something else? Enjoy shopping for the right subscription service for your dog! Have you tried a dog box subscription service?

Jan 9, Share There are few dogs as lovable as the Boxer. He loves his family and is good with kids, too. This pup is also an active dog that is eager to play whenever he gets the chance. He is all muscle. With a pooch as fun-loving as this one, it only makes sense to take advantage of all his desirable traits and cross him with other equally enjoyable breeds. Many breeders had that same idea, judging by the number of mixed breeds out there. Get ready to learn about some adorable puppies! The German Shepherd is just as energetic and always ready for a game of fetch. This dog also brings a tendency to nip into the mix that will require some gentle discipline to tame. Both breeds are simple to groom, with regular brushing your main task. The Chinese Shar-Pei is also a bit smaller than the pound weight of the parent breed. Overall, the mix makes him an excellent choice for an individual or family with grown children. Both breeds are energetic with the extra stamina to handle a long day of play and fun. Despite his size, the Mastiff is a lovable pooch that is a bit more laid-back than the Boxer. However, he is just as eager to play and share his affection with the entire family. He is also an excellent watchdog that will protect your home and children with intense devotion. While the Boxer is outgoing, the Chow Chow is more reserved. He is not as playful, either. Did we say cute as can be? The Boxier, of course, is active with a lean body. He also adds a dignified nature to the happy-go-lucky Boxer. The playfulness is still present, along with the affection and a heartfelt loyalty to his family. The hybrid is a bit larger, too. Both are delightful and make excellent pets. The Pug, of course, is much smaller than the Boxer with a little less energy. Thus, the cross has an increased risk of unhealthy weight gain. Luckily, both parents love to play, which can make that task easier for you. The Great Dane in him brings even more love and affection. Despite his size, he is a gentle pooch and plays nice with everyone, including children. The latter went after some serious opponents, including bears and mountain lions. That brings a courageous side to the Boweimar. Like the Boxer, he is eager to please and needs plenty of activity to keep himself occupied. He is slightly larger with a fuller chest and lankier form. The Australian Shepherd is a hardworking dog that must have a job to be happy. This hybrid might not welcome strangers, but he will stay loyal and affectionate toward his family. Like the Boxer, he is a high-energy pooch. He is quite adaptable and intelligent, which he gets from both parent breeds. This pup is sometimes mischievous, but he responds best with positive reinforcement. This one is another example of a canine that needs a job. The latter brings a higher degree of wanderlust and a tendency to bark that you must stem early. He also brings a loving nature that will make him welcome anyone to his home. The hybrid is a bit smaller with a similar coat as the parent breeds. This pup is every bit as active as his parent breeds. The hybrid is slightly taller and heavier with the same lean form. Daily walks are a must with this pooch. Otherwise, he may gain weight. He does best in a home without children. He is an adaptable dog that can do well in the city with daily walks. The hybrid is not as welcoming to strangers, which makes him an excellent choice for a watchdog. He is good with kids and other dogs, too. Grooming is a bit more work, depending on how much of the Siberian Husky he gets. That side also brings a tendency to be yippy that you must manage. The Husker is about the same size as a Boxer with a fuller chest and bigger head. The Boxador , of course! Both breeds are smart and active. That makes them eager to please but also easily bored. They bring so many welcome qualities to a mixed breed dog. They are also loving pups that will make an excellent addition to any home. Their hybrid relatives are equally as sweet, making any combination a winner for anyone wanting an active pet. Pet Keen is reader-supported.

These fun-loving dogs are great family dogs, but they are also highly loyal and supremely protective of their families, making them ideal guard dogs too — the job for which the breed was developed. With all these desirable characteristics, the Boxer has been a part of many designer breeds that are arguably just as adorable. In this article, we take a look at 20 of these designer breeds in all their glory! The 20 Popular Boxer Mixes 1. They are medium-sized dogs that need a great deal of exercise to stay happy and healthy, and they are not suitable for apartment living. That said, these dogs have the stubborn and independent nature of their Beagle parent too, and this can make training difficult for novice owners. They are strong, stocky animals that are highly athletic, making them ideal working dogs. They bond strongly with their owners and do not enjoy being left alone for long periods. Both parent breeds can be a challenge for novice owners to train, but with patience and dedication, the Box Heeler is a dependable and loyal pooch indeed. As such, little is known about the breed, although they are likely to be highly intelligent and exceedingly affectionate. Of course, both parent breeds have a stubborn streak that is likely to show itself in the Boxachi too. A Boxador! This Labrador cross is one of the most popular Boxer hybrids for many reasons. They are great family dogs, highly intelligent, and easy to train and have low grooming requirements: a near-perfect designer breed, in our opinion. These dogs are known to be a fair bit of a challenge to train because they can be stubborn at times, but their high intelligence and eager-to-please nature make up for it. They are great family dogs because they are generally docile and even-tempered and gentle with children. They typically have the medium-length, thick coat of their Chow parents but are far more muscular, stocky, and powerful, making for an intimidating dog indeed. They are easily trainable dogs, making them ideal for novice owners and families with young children. Boxerdoodle Boxer x Poodle A post shared by Andrea Dawn andreadawnworth This Poodle hybrid breed may inherit the short coat of the Boxer or the fluffy coat of the Poodle or be somewhere in between, but they are an adorable pooch either way! They are energetic pooches that will require a fair amount of daily exercise to keep them happy, but they are as loyal, lovable, and intelligent as they come. The Boxita is an extremely athletic pooch with a ton of energy, and they are known to be somewhat stubborn and challenging to train, making them a breed suited toward more experienced owners. They are known for being great family dogs, though, and are highly loyal and devoted animals. Boxmas Boxer x Mastiff A post shared by Jill Pelerine jmpelerine The Mastiff is a large, powerful dog and when combined with a Boxer , can make for an intimidating breed indeed. They are generally gentle giants, though, with a ton of devotion and affection to give. They are great family dogs, and their intimidating stature makes them excellent guard dogs. They are known for developing powerful bonds with their owners and are loyal animals. This Dalmatian hybrid is a playful, energetic pooch that needs a great deal of exercise and interaction to stay happy and healthy. They are larger than Boxers and may inherit the exuberant qualities of their Dalmatian heritage, a trait that can be problematic around small children. They are the ideal companion for active owners, though, with an almost inexhaustible reserve of energy. They are great family dogs, with a gentle and affectionate nature and staunch devotion to their owners. With their Husky heritage, these dogs can be independently minded and stubborn at times, making them difficult to train and not ideal for novice owners. They have high exercise demands and are not suited to apartment living. But if you have a large space at home and plenty of time to dedicate to regular exercise, they are a wonderful breed to own. They are playful, sweet dogs in general, but with the Rottweiler heritage, they need a firm and consistent hand in training. They are immensely powerful, with an intimidating appearance, but they are sweet and gentle-natured dogs at heart. Due to their power and strength, these dogs need early socialization and disciplined training and are not recommended for novice owners. Combining two loyal and devoted breeds, these dogs are highly affectionate and loving with their family and somewhat wary of strangers, making them great family protectors. They need plenty of socialization and a firm, consistent hand in training. Bulloxer Boxer x American Bulldog Image Credit: Mary Swift, Shutterstock The Boxer and American Bulldog are similar breeds, both with strong, sturdy frames and loyal, devoted temperaments, so the combination would naturally be a great match. They are generally sweet, friendly dogs despite their imposing appearance, and they make great family dogs that are gentle and loving with children. German Boxer Boxer x German Shepherd A post shared by BorisSV borisstarboardveracruz A somewhat unlikely mixed breed, this German Shepherd hybrid inherits the best traits of their parent breeds, making for a loving and playful yet loyal and devoted pooch. They are intelligent dogs that are highly trainable and ideal for novice dog owners, they make great family pooches, and they are as protective and loyal as they come. They are intelligent, devoted, playful, and gentle and bond strongly with their owners. They often inherit the long coat of their Retriever parents and are as adorable as they are friendly. Final Thoughts With the Boxer being such a friendly and loyal breed, any hybrid is likely to inherit these sought-after traits, and most are wonderful family dogs indeed. Some hybrids can be a challenge to train and may need far more exercise than is typical for Boxers.

If you are interested in finding your new family member, fill out our puppy application and we will be thrilled to work with you. We recognize that our dogs have the capability of changing peoples' lives on a therapeutic level. Many of our Doodles have become therapy dogs at funeral homes, children's advocacy centers, hospitals and nursing homes, and others have found homes as anxiety, PTSD and emotional support dogs. Learn more about our nonprofit organization Deer Creek Paw Prints at www. Learn More Molly, Rhys, and Beau! Life Span Did You Know? Second-generation crosses could include a Labradoodle and a Mini Poodle or two Mini Labradoodles as parents. This hybrid dog breed was originally developed to create smaller potential service dogs that might be a good fit for people with allergies to dog fur. With a mixed breed, you can end up with any combination of traits from the parent breeds. Often, Mini Labradoodles are smart, friendly, and sociable dogs that are highly trainable. They are often found working as service dogs and therapy dogs and living as beloved family companions. Although they are not recognized by the AKC, the Mini Labradoodle is recognized by other canine registries. A Mini Labradoodle is a combination of two friendly dog breeds that crave human affection and are always happy to have company. These dogs also tend to have playful, energetic personalities and low prey drives. Well-socialized Mini Labradoodles tend to get along well with children, other dogs, and other pets. Due to their smaller size, these dogs can be injured by accidental rough play or accidental falls, so any interactions between young kids and puppies should be closely supervised. Miniature Labradoodles will usually bark to alert you when someone is at the door, but generally are not prone to nuisance barking unless they have been trained into it. It may not be a bad idea to train your dog to stop barking early on. Well-socialized Mini Labradoodles may be initially wary of strangers, but tend to warm up quickly and will often be happy to make a new friend. Miniature Labradoodles are highly adaptable. Provided they get enough exercise, attention, and mental stimulation, they can adapt well to apartments as well as larger homes. They tend to do best in moderate climates, but can tolerate warmer or colder climates. As with any dog, they are sensitive to heat. Although they tend to have a fluffier coat, they are also smaller and may need to bundle up in some winter dog products to stay warm while out on walks in the cold. Mini Labradoodles are also very much companion breeds. They bond closely with their families and thrive on being near them, so they do not like to be left alone for long periods of time. The health of the parents and good breeding practices make a big difference in the health of Mini Labradoodle puppies. Reputable breeders will screen their dogs to avoid passing preventable issues to puppies. Make sure you are asking the breeder about the health and genetic history of both parents. You can also ask about any health tests or clearances that have been done to help allay any concerns you may have. Miniature Labradoodles tend to be highly intelligent and eager to please. This generally makes them easy to train and a good fit for owners of all experience levels. In fact, their parent breeds are considered some of the best dog breeds for first-time owners. These dogs respond best to consistent training and positive reinforcement. Puppy training classes can ensure that owners of any experience level learn the latest training techniques and start building a strong bond with their puppy. Grooming requirements with a Mini Labradoodle can vary. On the Poodle side, you have a low-shedding, but high-maintenance, coat that needs daily brushing along with trimming and grooming every weeks. On the Lab side, you have a higher shedding coat that is more low-maintenance, requiring some weekly brushing or brushing a few times a week and intermittent bathing. Overall, Mini Labradoodles range from having a non- to low-shedding coat. They can have one coat type or the other, or a combination of both of them. So, you will want to be prepared for brushing a coat a few times a week and the possibility of more grooming needs. Regardless of coat type, there are some other general grooming tasks you can count on. Regular dental care for your dog will help prevent serious dental issues like gum disease and tooth decay later in life. This is especially important for dog breeds with floppy ears as they are more prone to developing ear infections. Miniature Labradoodles can be high-energy dogs. In general, they require daily walks plus some playtime and extra activity to be happy and healthy. Since they love to be around their family and can have an exuberant and outgoing personality, they will likely be up for more playtime if you are. This little dog may get tired more easily at times and could push themselves too far in their excitement. On the other hand, they may just keep going and going with no signs of slowing down. What is most important is making sure your Miniature Labradoodle gets enough exercise and mental stimulation. Fully-grown Mini Labradoodles usually stand inches tall and weigh pounds. Miniature Labradoodles generally live for years on average. Featured Mini Labradoodle Article.
Follow our Weaver Dairy Goldens Facebook group for updates on this and upcoming litters. These dogs are eager to please, and can adapt to many different environments. Goldens have a very pleasant personality. The Golden Retriever's coat ranges in color from light to dark gold, with varying shades of red. Their easy-going temperament makes them one of the most popular breeds in America. Our breeder obtained Goldens from these lines and has been breeding the lines since .Pups from this bloodline have been known to live up to 18 years we sold a pup in April to a family whose male pup from these lines lived to be 18, and several others to families whose pups from these lines lived to be years. We moved to Bessemer City, North Carolina in .As a profession, Ken is a truck driver and I am a Legal Nurse working from home. We have owned dogs and cats for as long as we have been together. She looked like a black Golden Retriever, and had the best personality and temperament ever. He is our pride and joy. School and his fiancee', Hannah, keep him very busy. They have the perfect little family. Mags and Baley are even more spoiled with the kids than when they lived with us, which I never guessed would be possible. After researching both breeds, we chose the Golden because they are a little less energetic, but still have a great personality and are eager to please. Our first Golden, Zoe, was on the higher end of the energy spectrum for a Golden. We didn't realize how laid back the breed could be until we got our next Goldens, Baley and Maggie Mae litter mates. Then Baxter, who came from the same breeder but a different bloodline, showed us just how chill these wonderful dogs can be. The fact that this is the best breed ever has been confirmed with each Golden we have had the pleasure of owning over the years. We will likely never own another breed. Hobbies: Our Goldens are our main hobby and our passion. We are constantly learning better ways to take care of them.

They love their dogs and show commitment to the betterment of the breed in everything they do. But how can you spot reputable breeders when you start searching for a Pug puppy? Here are some tips to help you out. A good breeder will… 1. Issue a health guarantee Make sure that your breeder of choice offers a health guarantee. A reputable Pug breeder will write up a binding health guarantee for all of their puppies. The guarantee protects you against any genetic defects or diseases. It shows that the breeder is confident that their puppies are bred according to best practices. This means if you can no longer look after your pup for some reason, you will be expected to return the puppy to the breeder rather than taking them to a shelter. Provide standard health clearances Your breeder should have full health clearances for both parent Pugs. Good breeders often provide some early health-check clearances for their pups too, although some health clearances simply cannot be carried on such young pups. Issue a written bill of sale Reputable breeders offer written bills of sale to all of their new Pug parents. This bill of sale should be signed and will outline all the roles and responsibilities to be taken on by the buyer and seller as part of the transaction. Vaccinate their puppies All puppies should be up to date on their vaccinations before being homed with new families. Your breeder of choice should be able to provide evidence of these vaccinations. Reputable breeders welcome prospective parents into their homes to see the puppies. Follow age guidelines Puppies should never leave the litter before 8 weeks of age. Any breeder offering pups for adoption before this time is not following best practices. In fact, this could be quite damaging for the puppy developmentally. A reputable breeder will keep their pups at home until eight to twelve weeks so that they can be properly socialized and spend that crucial time with their mother and litter-mates. Answer your questions Last, but not least, a reputable breeder will be knowledgeable. In most cases, they will also want to ask you plenty of questions to ensure that their precious pups are going to good homes. We have a strict selection process that takes a variety of factors into account. That way we can ensure that only the best breeders end up on our lists. This way we know that our chosen breeders offer genetically sound and healthy puppies. Health testing shows a commitment to the health and wellbeing of each Pug. Contact information Any breeder that does not offer up their contact information is a big red flag. A reputable breeder will make it easy for you to get in contact with them by providing telephone numbers, email addresses, and they will usually have a well-established website as well. It shows a commitment to breeding best practices. Event participation Breeders who also compete in doggie events are often some of the best. Because these people tend to be dog lovers par excellence. They live and breathe for their Pugs and are proud to show them off in public. They are also more likely to have a high level of breed knowledge — an excellent sign for a breeder. Breed club membership There are lots of breed clubs out there that breeders can register with. These clubs have rules, regulations, and membership fees. If your breeder is registered with the Pug Dog Club of America, this is a great sign showing commitment to the Pug breed. Recognition awards Lastly, we look out for awards! Institutions like the AKC recognize the efforts and achievements of top breeders. The very best will be awarded the AKC recognition of merit award. During this time we recommend getting everything ready before your new arrival rattles through the front door. Your puppy will need: a crate for sleeping and training during the early days quality puppy-grade food a leash and harness plenty of toys You may also wish to purchase a puppy gate if there are areas of your home that you want to keep your Pug away from. This is all about making your home as safe as possible for your new arrival. Make sure anything that could potentially cause harm to your pup is removed. Clear your schedule Having a Pug puppy is a bit like having a human baby. So make sure to clear your schedule and get all of those errands done ahead of time! Once they arrive… 4. Avoid crowds Hold your excitement. That means no crowds. Try to keep the home environment as stress-free as possible so that your puppy can settle in and start to feel part of the family. Crate training is the first step. Lay down a regular routine from the get to and your Pug will be good as gold in no time.
Conclusion The Silver Lab was originally developed in Michigan as a working dog. The Silver Lab is known for its intelligence and versatility. Its lineage can be traced back to the original black labs, which were used in hunting and tracking. The Silver Lab is a versatile breed that is perfect for both work and play. In , the first black lab was found in America. A doctor bred the dogs to hunt coons and possums, and their skills soon caught on with farmers who wanted a dog that could help them eradicate pests from their property. As demand grew for these effective hunting companions, other breeders began creating their own silver labs. After taking inspiration, they worked professionally. Today, there are many different types of silver labs in existence. Some work as service dogs or therapy animals, while others remain dedicated hunters. Appearance There is no mistaking a silver lab puppy for any other type of dog. They are slender, long-legged, and have a sparkling coat of fur. Many people who see a silver lab for the first time think they are pure white. The distinguishing features of a silver lab puppy include its Silvery color Black eyebrows Temperament When people think of Labs, they likely think of the gentle giant personality type. The Lab was bred as a working dog and is known for being friendly and playful. Silver Labs are no exception to this personality type.

Additionally, silver Labs are highly trainable and make excellent house pets. Training Needs When it comes to training a silver lab puppy, consistency and positive reinforcement are key. Silver labs are intelligent dogs and will quickly learn what you want them to do if you provide clear and consistent instructions. Start by teaching your pup basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, come, and down. Once your pup is reliably following your commands, start working on more complex tricks such as fetching or jumping through hoops. Health Issues Silver Labs are generally healthy dogs, but there are some health concerns associated with them. One issue is that they are prone to developing hip dysplasia.

Silver Labrador puppies for sale in Michigan-Top 15 Breeders Here are the prominent names and quality dog breeders. Michigan Elite Labradors. Email us We are a small hobby breeder located in the middle of Michigan. Our dogs are our pets and our hunting partners. Our females are only bred 4 times in their life. We love to be outdoors and so do our Labs, and Golden Retrievers. We perform DNA test on all our dogs before choosing to breed them. This is why we can offer a 2 year genetic health guarantee on all our pups. We have been raising labs for 12 years, breeding for 8 and have been training them to hunt for the las 6 years. Over the years we have raised both the American and English style of Lab and all the standard colors, but we have become very intrigued by the diluted colors in Labradors and how the genetics work with coat colors. So in we bought our first silver lab and named him Duke, after the first male lab I ever owned. As the years have gone buy and our family got bigger, our daughters have decided that they wanted something a little different. So now we own 2 beautiful Golden Retrievers that will be added to our breeding program in .We love our dogs and love telling people about them, so if you have any questions feel free to contact us. We have worked very hard to continue to improve the genetics of our pups. It is our goal to produce genetically perfect puppies with great hunting instinct and loving gentle personalities. Our males are Available for Stud and are used quite often. From those litters we usually take pick of the litter. This helps us keep up with the demand there is in Michigan for diluted colored pups. If you look at our Available Pups and Coming Soon pages, they will list all the litters our males have sired that are currently available, or are expecting in the coming months. Litters will only be posted once pregnancy has been confirmed. Our pick of the litter pups are usually for sale, unless we are keeping the pup for breeding purposes. This means you could have first choice of any pup you want from that litter and is explained in more detail on the coming soon page.

The 5th pup will be a Silver boy. With all that training taking place, we will not be producing any pups of our own this year. However there will be many litters that our boys sir.
long haired blue french bulldog puppy - We may earn money or products from the companies mentioned in this post. This was the first time we had a chance to chart puppies from birth until 8 weeks old. We tried to take as many pictures as possible so we could have a journal of our Golden Retriever puppy growth week by week. When raising guide and service dog puppies we usually bring home our puppies at around weeks old. On occasion we are allowed to see puppies before 8 weeks of age, but they need to stay with their mother and siblings during those important early weeks to get milk and antibodies from mama and learn how to interact properly with siblings, learning important behaviors like bite inhibition. During our days as a foster we raised two litters of puppies , but both were already weeks old by the time we got them home. We actually own the Puppy Culture DVD and Workbook which includes charts, lists, worksheets and other great information for raising your litter. Keep your eyes and ears open and absorb it all like a sponge! Birth To 1 Week Old Guess what? This was the first litter we ever whelped!? We got a lot of advise, but we were largely on our own. Large Puppy Dish — great for feeding the puppies when they moved to solid food. Whelping Mats — we ordered 2 of these mats and washed them several times a day. Whelping Box — We have a homemade whelping box built by my father-in-law, but if we continue raising litters I plan on purchasing an EZWhelp Whelping Box. Our homemade box lasted three litters. We ended up purchasing the Magnabox which was hellu expensive but if you plan on raising multiple litters we highly recommend it. We recently put together a whelping checklist with all the supplies we gathered together to help out with our second litter of Golden Retriever puppies. Check out our whelping supplies checklist here. However, none were overly huge and none were extra small. No runts and no beasts. It was my understanding that when the cord was chewed down to the base of the belly it was sometimes difficult to get it to stop bleeding. I took the hemostat and pinched the umbilical cord about 2 inches from the base of the pups belly then cut the cord rather than let Raven chew it off. I kept the hemostat on the cord for about 2 minutes to let it clout. The umbilical cord dries up quickly and then within a day or 2 it falls off. Raven was a good mama and took care of her poops. Puppy eyes and ears are closed at this stage and puppies army crawl around the whelping box looking for a teat to suckle. We did everything we could to make sure our pups stayed warm by adding a watt heat lamp to the whelping box and portable heating unit in the puppy room. As I mentioned Raven stayed in the whelping box most of week 1 and of course… the puppy piles! One thing I learned is if I had a puppy on my lap then do not let Raven lick those areas or be prepared for a little accident on your lap. While caring for Raven and her litter Raven was really blowing out her coat that first week, but as time went on it slowed down. I heard from other friends this is common and that Raven blew out her coat much less than other mama dogs. We got Probiotics for Raven before her first litter, but forgot to order them for her second litter. After an upset stomach for the first week or so we realized our mistake, got Probiotics, and no more upset tummy. Week 2 — Pups eyes are opening starting to waddle. Week 3 — First bark! Week 7 — The great puppy escape artists! Week 8 — Our golden puppies head to their new homes. Have you ever had a litter of Golden Retriever puppies?

Colby Colby Morita has been raising and training guide and service dog puppies for over 13 years. Colby has been writing to the PuppyInTraining. Your new furry friend has a lot of growing to do, and you probably have a lot of questions. Your Golden Retriever puppy will go through a number of developmental stages throughout their first twelve weeks. Male Golden Retrievers generally weigh between 65 and 75 pounds and stand from 23 to 24 inches tall. Females are generally smaller weighing between 55 to 65 pounds, and will grow to stand .At 4 months, your Golden Retriever puppy will reach about half their adult height. When it comes to mental development, it can take even longer than that before the Golden Retriever is fully mature. However, every puppy is a unique individual, and these are merely milestone guidelines. Disparities exist between the working and show Goldens, as well as between males and females. Golden Retriever puppy growth can also be quite sporadic. As an overall average, many Golden Retriever puppies will weigh just approximately 1. Golden Retrievers are classified as a gundog breed, and these dogs are often divided into those bred for show and those meant for work. However, the body of the show Golden is typically larger, taller, heavy-boned, and fuller in the chest. Small Parents Like people, puppies inherit physical traits from their parents. And even puppies from the same litter can vary in size. Neither of these scenarios is healthy for a puppy. Larger breeds like the Golden Retriever are more at risk for growth disorders than small breed dogs. This article will give you a lot more information on how much to feed, what to feed, and how often to feed a Golden Retriever puppy. Illness and Puppy Growth If a puppy has been seriously ill for a prolonged period, it may affect their ability to grow normally. However, once the puppy is free of worms, they should continue to grow at a normal rate. The best way to determine if your puppy is too thin or too fat is by how he looks and feels. When looking at your puppy from above, he should have a noticeable waistline. Another way to tell is by putting your hands on either side of his ribcage. You should be able to feel his ribs using a gentle pressure. But if his ribs are visible, he could be underweight. Obesity is a huge problem for many dog breeds. Although there are ways to make your puppy grow bigger, this is not something you should attempt. It could also mean you end up with a fat puppy. One of the best ways to ensure your puppy has a long, healthy life is to ensure he stays at an optimal weight. Hip and elbow dysplasia and other musculoskeletal disorders are associated with excess weight in larger breeds. Having your dog neutered at a young age can also cause them to grow taller. The problem is, this can also cause abnormalities in joint formation. Neutering also makes Golden Retrievers more at risk for certain types of cancers. Typically it will take approximately 18 months for your Golden Retriever to become an adult dog. Even though they can reach their full height at anywhere from 9 to 12 months, it will usually take them longer to fill out to their full weight. Remember that there are wide variations in size within the Golden Retriever breed. If this is the case, you should contact your veterinarian to seek advice. Beginning the puppy development stages before birth Puppy development stages week by week Amazingly, in a way the puppy development stages begin before your dog is even born. Your puppy spends approximately 9 weeks developing inside his Mom. The mother dog has a womb or uterus, that has two long tubes, and the puppies grow in a row along each tube rather like peas in a pod. The puppies are joined to their mother by a placenta which provides all the nourishment they need for those few weeks. To begin with, the puppies have plenty of room to move but they grow fast and as the time for birth draws near they are packed in quite tightly. The one week old puppy Your puppy is born fully furred but with his eyes and ears closed so he cannot hear or see. His front feet are strong and he can pull himself towards his mother with them. He can cry if he is uncomfortable and his mother will respond to his cries by moving him towards her and licking him. Your puppy spends most of his time sleeping or suckling. He cannot regulate his own body temperature and needs his mother for heat, or an artificial heat source. In the first week to ten days of his life your puppy grows rapidly and will double his birth weight. His forelegs are getting much stronger. She licks the puppies bottoms to stimulate a bowel or bladder movement and eats the result. There is no cleaning up for the breeder to do yet. The breeder will begin to handle the puppies more though, and get them used to human contact. She will worm the puppies for the first time at the end of this week. Puppies begin to get their personalities. Your puppy can stand and sit up by the end of the week. Tails can be wagged, ears will be completely open and puppies start play growling and interacting with their littermates. Your puppy can regulate his body temperature more effectively and will start to cut his first teeth in preparation for weaning. The front teeth, canines and incisors are cut first. Toward the end of the week he may have his first tiny taste of puppy food. They also start to move away from the sleeping area to empty their bowels and bladder. They may try to climb out of the whelping box. If she lives indoors, she may rejoin the family for more of each day. Your puppy will cut his back teeth and the breeder will get weaning underway this week and by the end of it, your puppy will be getting quite a bit of his nourishment from puppy food. She will also worm the puppies a second time. If the mother is allowed near the puppies after she has been fed, she may regurgitate her dinner for them. This is completely natural and normal. He is a proper little dog. Rolling around with his brothers and sisters and playing with toys. Teething toys, puppy Kongs, balls and rope toys are big favorites with puppies. He can bark too and some puppies can be quite noisy at this age! He chases after his mother whenever she appears and suckles hungrily, but she is starting to get fed up with it, and may be reluctant to feed her brood for very long. His mother is teaching him not to bite too hard. If he lives in outdoor kennels he should spend part of each day indoors with the family. By the end of the sixth week, most are fully weaned, and eating five or six little meals of puppy food each day. Socialization must begin in earnest. He is now two months old and ready for his new life. It is the time during which they become fearful of anything unfamiliar and need to be thoroughly socialized. This is also the time during which most puppies get to grips with house-training, learning to wait before eliminating and start sleeping through the night without a potty break. It is a busy time for new puppy owners. Your puppy will have his vaccinations during this month. Biting can be a big problem during this stage and you need to be patient and consistent in order to teach the puppy not to hurt people when he plays. Provided you use force free methods, this is a great time to get puppy training under way, and especially to teach a puppy recall, and to get your puppy used to working with food. So, for a 2. You can do the same calculation for medium pups at sixteen weeks and large breed pups at 20 weeks — just divide his weight by his age in weeks before you multiply by .Medium to large pups will reach about half their adult height by the end of the month. If the weather is warm you can get your puppy swimming now. He should be able to come when he is called, in and around your home, provided there are not too many distractions. It all depends on what you have taught him. He may still be chewing a lot and biting too. Use frozen Kongs to help him and give your furniture and fingers a break. Puppies can go for short walks now. By the end of this month your puppy could have a twenty minute walk each day. He may also enjoy fetching a ball and playing with other dogs, but take care to stop before he gets very tired. Less dependence This is the month during which some puppies start to become less dependent on their humans for security. Keep your puppy close to you outdoors by changing direction frequently so that you puppy has to keep coming to find you. And engaging him in games. The foundations of a great recall are often build or spoilt during this month. If your puppy knows how to sit or lie down at home, start some simple proofing exercises with him in public places. A healthy puppy can usually manage on two meals a day from around six months. During this month a Retriever, Spaniel or GSD puppy will reach around two thirds of his adult weight. A Great Dane and other large breeds will have reached about half their final weight and little dogs will have almost completed their growth. Some female dogs will come on heat for the first time during this month, or the next, so keep an eye open now for swelling of her vulva and any discharge. Your dog will become increasingly confident over the next few months so practice, practice and practice that recall! Make it a habit he cannot break. And be generous with your rewards. Small breed pups may now be more or less mature. Your puppy will enjoy half hour off lead walks now, and should be able to walk on a loose lead for short periods with plenty of encouragement and rewards. Keep practicing that recall! These help to slow his growth further and to build his confidence. Make sure you practice good outdoor management on walks to maintain the good recall you have built and work hard on thoroughly proofing all his obedience skills. Read up on neutering before you take this important step, for dogs of either sex. Once your dog is a year old he can participate in more strenuous activities and sports. Now is the time to think about the kinds of activities you would like to do with him — go jogging together for example — and if necessary, to start to get him fit. Puppy development stages — Summary There is huge variation in the way in which dogs develop and mature. The puppy development stages and ages outlined above are a rough guide. We hope you enjoyed them and found the information interesting. When it comes to training, you get out what you put in. Your progress depends as much if not more on you rather than your puppy.

As a new Golden Retriever puppy owner, you may be wondering about when important puppy milestones happen, such as: When do they lose their puppy teeth? When do they stop growing? When do they finally stop biting? When do they sleep through the night? These puppy behavior stages and developmental milestones will differ from individual to individual, but this timeline can give you a general understanding of what to expect with your puppy. Day 1: Puppy is born You could also call this the best day ever. After carrying the pups for about 9 weeks , mom is ready to give birth! The average litter size for Golden Retrievers is 8. Their eyesight is very limited, and their soon-to-be-brown eyes are sometimes blue when they first open them. And as you know or will soon find out , they are very sharp. The puppy kibble is soaked in water, mashed up, and introduced to the pups. They work up to eating solid food about four times per day while still nursing from their mother. Because puppies need to complete weaning, most breeders wait until the puppies are 8 weeks to 12 weeks old before they send their pups home with their new owners. You can also start training them at this age the best way to stop bad habits is to not let them start! Getting a Golden Retriever Puppy? Download the Potty Training Cheat Sheet here!

What are Golden Retrievers bred for? Distinctly British, the 1st Baron of Tweedmouth developed the breed crossing his golden colored retrieving dog Nous with a Tweed Water Spaniel — these look similar to Irish Water Spaniels. The cross resulted in a dog that was comfortable being on land and water kind of like crocodiles , and robust enough to hunt goose, partridge and even deer. Do Golden Retrievers make good family pets? In fact, Golden Retrievers are one of the most loved dog breeds in the UK. The Kennel Club has a lot more good information and info about them. What does this have to do with how I train my Golden Retriever puppy?

Commonly employed as Guide Dogs, they love having a job to do, which means they will adore training. Anyhow, they will be a breeze to train. They will also do almost anything for your soft words and approval — your praise will work just as well as treats. Because they are so gentle, they are a great fit for families with a variety of lifestyles and ages. They need a good amount of exercise; mental as well as physical. Let us rephrase — a hefty amount of exercise. Besides you and food, being in water is what they love the most! They have a very strong sense of smell, so retrieving or scent work games tend to be the biggest treat for most. Golden Retrievers are the social butterflies of dogs. They love most people, and are not discreet in showing it. You know how us Brits can be about politeness. That being said, make sure you also teach them the wonders of giving things up. It can lead to great things! But it can also be less helpful when they give you a love bite on your arm — give them a toy to carry instead. Shift to some play, and revisit training later — we want training to be associated with fun, and not something they begin to dread. Breeders VS. The sad truth is that many pet store purchased pups actually come from puppy mills. Basically, there is zero authenticity with pet stores. When it comes to adopting any animal from a pet store, there is an increased risk of unforeseen health or genetic problems. You also cultivate a life-long relationship with the breeder, meaning support is available to you anytime you may need it. With My Golden Retriever Puppies , you have the option to come and visit both the puppy and the breeder in person! Golden Retrievers are an adaptable breed, meaning they are better at adapting to seasonal changes and various types of climate than certain other breeds. Goldens sport a double-coat, which ensures that these sweet pups are able to tolerate slightly colder temperatures than their friends from other breeds. Your pup deserves better than that, which is why here at My Golden Retriever Puppies , we ensure high-quality care is taken of your pet at all times.

These loving dogs are constantly praised for their gentle and calm, yet playful nature, making them perfect dogs for all walks of life and types of families. So when you do finally bring your Golden Retriever puppy home, you want to do everything you can to give them a long and healthy life for years to come. This is a wide range, so keep in mind that the weight of your Retriever will vary depending on genetic factors and sex. For example, female Golden Retrievers will weigh closer to 55 pounds while Golden Retriever males are heavier and will weigh closer to 75 pounds. Females also typically reach their full size by their first birthday, while males may continue growing through their second year. You can usually tell the size males and females will be based on what their parents look like, which is why Snowy Pines encourages meeting the parents or browsing through their photos and biographies online. Then, calculate 1. What to Expect: This age is crucial for mother-puppy bonding since he will depend on his mother for food, cleaning, and socialization. Image Source Weeks months Golden Retriever Male Weight: Between 8 to 12 weeks, your male puppy will average between 10 to 22 pounds. Golden Retriever Female Weight: Although females will grow to be smaller than males, they are typically around the same weight at this age group. The puppies become very playful, curious, and discover their voices little by little. Introductory training like house training is essential. Socialization is also important, which is why Snowy Pines ensures that all puppies stay with their littermates until adoption. For female puppies, 6 months is a little over the halfway point to their full-size, and males are essentially smaller versions of their adult bodies. Remember, at this age, you can multiply by two to determine their adult weight! What to Expect: Socialization is still crucial at this age, and more intense training can also begin. The puppy should also be kept in happy and safe environments, as any exposure to something fearful at this age may impact him long-term. This is entirely normal: Think of your puppy as a teenager who is going through adolescence and waiting for the rest of his body to catch up. They may get territorial and challenge you and other pets for dominance. Most Golden Retrievers will be fully grown by 24 months old, although this varies. Golden Retriever Female Weight: In most cases, females are finished growing before 16 to 24 months. Whatever their nature is like at the to month mark is likely what it will be throughout their adult life. They are loyal, friendly, and calm, making them the perfect companion for small and large families alike. However, Goldens are susceptible to certain illnesses and diseases that are common in bigger breeds that are typically caused by overfeeding, stunted or accelerated growth, and genetic issues. One of the most common diseases that goldens experience is Osteochondritis dissecans OCD. OCD is a developmental disease that affects large-breed dogs because of the accelerated growth they experience. It is an inflammatory condition that causes abnormal cartilage development on the end of a bone in the joint. This can lead to joint problems like arthritis and hip dysplasia which commonly appears in the elbow, hip, and knee. Image Source The good news is that, although larger breeds like golden retrievers are prone to joint issues like this, you may be able to help prevent it through proper practice. OCD is a specific disease that is more common in dogs that receive too much energy and calcium in their diets. Other common factors are genetics, rapid growth, and hormonal factors. Overfeeding can lead to obesity, and all that extra weight can leave your puppy with skeletal abnormalities that put too much weight on joints. Another way to avoid accidentally stunted or accelerated growth is to ensure your golden retriever puppy is getting fed appropriately and receiving the right amount of calories. Image Source Months Between 2 and 4 months old, your puppy should eat 4 times per day with 2 ounces per meal. This will add up to 7 to 9 ounces per day, depending on how much he willingly eats. Keep him on puppy food through his first year before switching to young adult food. They must receive regular exercise every day. However, this depends on their age. As previously covered, the more your puppy grows, the more susceptible to common diseases like joint problems. Breeders with years of experience, like the team at Snowy Pines, work hard to keep pure bloodlines so that all of the parents and their litters are as healthy as they can be, which helps guarantee a lifetime full of happiness without any issue.

long haired blue french bulldog puppy - Most of all, you might be thinking about whether your shampoo could work on your dog. When it comes to shampoos, we often think that it only takes care of our hair. However, it can also affect the skin — mainly our scalp. Our shampoo products are simply not suited for our dogs. They have a more sensitive, thinner, and more alkaline skin than ours. It can then cause several problems such as itchiness and hot spots. Dog shampoos , on the other hand, were manufactured and formulated for their specific needs. However, finding the right shampoo for English Bulldogs is essential to guarantee their needs are met. Dogs have different coat types from its length to its density. There are even dogs with double coats. For example, dogs with thinner or shorter coats will need a gentler shampoo type as their fur is closer to their skin. Meanwhile, dogs with thicker or double coats will need a more powerful shampoo. While you still need a chemical-free shampoo, there are organic shampoos that pack more power and can penetrate through the coarser top coat and the undercoat. English Bulldogs have a shorter and straighter coat, so they make shampoo for English Bulldogs that are milder. Skin and Coat Condition If your English bulldog suffers from a certain skin or coat condition, you need to find a shampoo for English Bulldogs that are made to treat these issues. If your dog has a healthy skin and coat, most normal dog shampoos will work. If they suffer from dry skin, you will need a product that can hydrate and moisturize the skin. Normally, dry skin could lead to itchiness and worse — hot spots. For these problems, shampoos with an oatmeal formula or aloe vera extract would work best. Greasy coats are also common. For this kind of issue, you should avoid oatmeal formula shampoos and choose other emollients like aloe vera. Shedding is normal for dogs, but excessive shedding might be a problem. Anti Ticks and Fleas Ticks and fleas are a year-round threat that your dog faces. But be reminded that these tick and flea shampoos are only temporary remedies. These pup-specific shampoos are often milder and offer a no-tear formula. Your dog will be squeaky clean by the time they step out of the bath. There are no harsh chemicals included in its formulation. While this product was specifically marketed towards dog owners with puppies, you can use it on your adult English Bulldog, especially when they have sensitive skin. It also has the right pH balance that works for dogs of all breeds and life stages. As there are no synthetic colorants and perfumes, the ingredients are veterinary-grade and are safe for use. If the skin is healthy, itching and flaking can also be avoided. Apart from healing dry and itchy skin, this shampoo also effectively cleans your dog and deodorizes them, leaving no traces of bad smell from dirt, urine, or poo. It claims to keep your dog smelling good every after bath and retains this smell for a while. All the ingredients are natural and there are no synthetic colorants, perfumes, harsh chemicals, and parabens. This shampoo does not only deep clean their coat but lightens and whitens their fur even more. However, this shampoo does leave your dog smelling like pina colada after bathing. It also has a synthetic fragrance and uses dyes. Double check these chemicals to ensure that your dog is safe and discontinue use if your dog starts experiencing problems. This product claims to work on a broad spectrum of skin conditions including flaking and scaling from mange, pyoderma, seborrhea, and even mites and acne. However, it is best that you use this with the guidance of your vet. It also has a refreshing and pleasant citrus smell. Leftover shampoo, especially as strong as this one, could cause drying and itching. The best shampoo for English Bulldogs could be different for each dog and dog owner.

Here are a few examples to help you get started during your search: Skin Condition and Age The best shampoo for your English Bulldog should match its breed-specific coat and skin care needs. Several moisturizing formulas are ideal for treating itchiness or bacterial infections like skin fold pyoderma. Ingredients Consider looking for dog shampoo containing natural ingredients and vitamins, like aloe vera, vitamin E, oatmeal, and coconut oil. These formulas are less likely to cause skin irritation than a shampoo with harsh detergents, sulfates, and parabens. Fragrance Shampoos with artificial fragrances are more likely to trigger skin allergies in some English Bulldogs. In contrast, others recommend diluting it with water before applying it to your dog to reduce potential skin irritation caused by its concentrated ingredients. Consider bathing your English Bulldog every six to eight weeks to prevent escalating their potential skin problems. My wife and I love playing with our active miniature Labradoodle Max. We want all Oodle puppies to be healthy and happy, have lots of fun and be part of the family. Load More. I recommend bathing a Bulldog monthly or every two months. If you bathe a Bulldog any more than that, you are risking stripping him of natural oils. This can result in dry, itchy skin and a damaged, unhealthy coat.

We should note that a medicated or anti-itch shampoo may not be necessary for your Bulldog, but we suggested them because Bulldogs are more prone to skin infections than other types of dogs. This is mostly due to their skin folds, which are part of the reason why we love them. But the truth is that these skin folds create a warm and moist environment for bacteria to grow in. But when given the right environment in which to grow, bacteria can multiply in such a way that it is unhealthy and can actually cause discomfort for your dog. If this happens, bacterial skin infections can occur, which can cause itchiness, skin redness, hair loss, and even skin crusting and flakiness. Bacterial skin infections often require a medicated shampoo to treat, which is why we suggested a few for you. However, your vet can also recommend a reliable medicated shampoo as well. The bottom line is that anti-itch shampoos are okay to use with Bulldogs in any situation, but not all Bulldogs will require a shampoo that is medicated. Conclusion We love English Bulldogs due to their wrinkled appearance, but those wrinkles can also lead to skin problems as well. If you need something medicated, there are several great options on our list for that as well. Whatever your Bulldog needs as far as shampoo goes, we hope you found it with our product suggestions and reviews. She is currently living in the United States with her husband and daughter.

How To Redeem This Offer What to look for in a good shampoo for your Bulldog Short-haired dogs with smooth coats, like the Bulldog, are usually considered easier to groom and bathe than dogs with longer coats. Keep him indoors to dry before letting him go outside. As long as you keep his wrinkles clean and dry, he should be relatively easy to groom and bathe. Of course, there are always exceptions and some dogs may need a special shampoo or a little more help with their skin and coat. Anything too harsh can be a problem so avoid cheaper shampoos or shampoos made for humans. However, the shampoo you use must clean well or it will leave oil, dirt, and dander behind. If you leave behind any residue, it can make your dog itch and scratch. This can lead to skin problems later. Make sure you rinse your dog completely any time you use a bath product. Most shampoos today have fragrances so choose something that both you and your dog can live with. You may like something that smells like Scarlett Johansson would wear it but your Bulldog would probably prefer something that smells like an old shoe. Try to compromise. One of the most important things to look for when choosing a shampoo for your Bulldog is the pH of the product. Dogs have a skin pH that is higher than our human skin. Human pH is more acidic. Some low quality dog shampoos can also be in this range. If your dog starts scratching his skin it can lead to infections. Most good dog shampoos have a pH around .We also recommend that you look for shampoos that are soap-free when possible. We like natural and plant-based shampoos for pet Bulldogs unless your dog needs a medicated shampoo for a skin problem. Some pet owners like organic shampoos and they are also available. This means that your dog can ingest them when he licks his fur. Ingredients to avoid include phosphates, parabens, sulfate, methylparabens, and phthalates. If your dog requires a medicated shampoo for whatever reason, you may have no choice but to use a product that contains some stronger chemicals. Other ingredients used in some shampoos have been linked to cancer in some studies. Since your Bulldog is likely to lick his fur like any dog , that means he could ingest these chemicals. The same is true about Cocamidopropyl Betaine. The ingredients doazolidinyl urea, imidazolidinyl urea or quarternium release formaldehyde. Isopropyl or rubbing alcohol turns into acetone in the body. It can also be listed as isopropanol, 2-propanol, and propyl. Another ingredient to avoid is Methylchloroisothiazolinone — a known carcinogen. There are others but these are some of the most common and most dangerous. If your dog has a serious skin condition and needs a medicated shampoo, you may have limited options. Try to use shampoos that contain these ingredients on a short-term basis. A good shampoo for your Bulldog should rinse out of the coat easily. Follow instructions when using these products. These are medicated shampoos so they should be used when your dog has a specific problem but they should be discontinued when the problem clears up. The bottom line: Look for a good quality shampoo for your Bulldog that is gentle with a pH between 6 and 7. It should rinse out easily. Natural ingredients are preferable unless your dog needs a medicated shampoo. Different Kinds of Shampoo for your Bulldog A good cleansing or deep cleaning shampoo is a good choice for most Bulldogs.

If not treated properly, allergies can lead to sores, coat damage, hair loss, and misery for your dog. Any dog can pick up fleas and ticks. If your Bulldog brings these pests home, there are lots of flea and tick shampoos available. Shampoos usually work better on fleas than on ticks, but you still have a lot of choices. They range from natural ingredients to shampoos with pesticides. Before buying a flea and tick shampoo, we would suggest talking to your veterinarian so you are aware of all of the options for getting rid of fleas and ticks today. You might decide to use a topical flea treatment or a one-time pill instead of using a shampoo, for example. There are also flea and tick control products that work with heartworm medications, if that would work for your Bulldog. This can be great, especially if you have an elderly dog. Waterless shampoos are another good choice if you have an old dog or a dog with health problems. You can apply the waterless shampoo to your dog wherever he happens to be and rub it out with a damp wash cloth. Puppy shampoos are formulated to be especially mild. If your Bulldog is stinky and smelly — say he encounters a skunk or rolls in something really rotten in your yard — there are good neutralizing and deodorizing shampoos.
