An ultra sound is inconclusive until around 30 days and a x-ray will not show anything till around 45 days when the calcium in the puppies bones solidifies. This leaves very little time to get prepared. So let's discuss some important Poodle pregnancy facts. This is Curly, who is 19 months old and 51 days pregnant. Let's first clear up some myths and look at some Poodle pregnancy facts. A female Poodle may become pregnant: Any time after her 1st heat, no matter how young she is At any age, no matter how old she is, as long as she is still entering heat.Starting at about week 2 it will become firm. By week 4 it will be noticeably swollen. Her mammary glands will become enlarged Some inverted nipples that you may not have even noticed will "pop out" She will clean herself more thoroughly than usual Nesting behavior may begin. Some dogs will gather toys and other articles from around the house, showing maternal instincts toward them. She may also drag pillows, blankets and other soft materials to a quiet corner of a room to build a 'nest'. Her appetite should increase There may be minor to moderate clear discharge. This usually begins by week 4 or 5. Litter Size The average size litter for a Toy Poodle is: 3 pups The average size litter for a Miniature Poodle is: 5 pups The average size litter for a Standard Poodle is: 6 pups Do keep in mind that these are averages. It is common for a Toy Poodle to have just 1 puppy and while it is rare, she may have up to 5. The largest Poodle litter ever recorded is.Charlie named for Charlie's Angels was in labor for 23 hours, giving birth to 10 female puppies and 6 males. And believe it or not, this was an unplanned breeding. The sire, Magnum another standard Poodle broke through 2 wooden fences to get to Charlie when she was in heat. Caring for a Pregnant Poodle Once you suspect that your Poodle may be pregnant, you will want to have this confirmed. There are several ways that the veterinarian can do this, at different stages: A blood test can test for pregnancy and will be most reliable by day .An ultrasound can pick up fetal heartbeats by day day .An x-ray should be performed to determine exactly how many fetus are growing so that you will know how many to expect. This is not done until late in the pregnancy, usually after day 45, since bones are not sufficiently calcified until this time. Moderate daily exercise should continue throughout the pregnancy while excluding any more intense activity. Walking will allow the dam to maintain muscle mass and keep her body in top shape in preparation for labor. Her appetite will increase by week 2 or 3 and by week 5 nutritional needs nearly double. While food should not be denied, the focus should be on offering a well-balanced, healthy diet. Adding an egg once per day as well as a scoop or two of cottage cheese is a good way to offer a bit more protein. Pregnant dogs should not be given any extra calcium via supplements as this can predispose a dam to the dangerous health condition of eclampsia a life-threatening drop in blood calcium levels that can happen when the dam is nursing. The home environment should be as stress free as possible and the pregnant Poodle should be allowed to retreat and rest as she pleases. You may wonder how much weight a pregnant Poodle gains. For example, a toy Poodle that was 8 lbs. A standard Poodle that was 55 lbs .While the majority of delivers are without complications, you will want to be prepared for any situation. You will need: 1. A thermometer 2. Sheets, towels or clean newspapers 3. Floss or thread 4. A whelping box - This can be a cardboard box, lined child's wading pool for standards or even a canine bed Perla beds work quite nicely 6. Heating pad 7. Having an assistant be there with you is always a good idea. How to Know it is Time All dog breeds carry the puppies on average for 63 days; however a Poodle pregnancy can last anywhere from 59 to 65 days and still be considered normal. You will know that labor is to begin in approximately 24 hours when your dog's internal body temperature drops. For this reason, at least one week before the due date, start taking your Poodle's temperature twice per day. While some digital thermometers will beep, if you are using a standard type, leave it in for 3 minutes. At this time, you should be prepared to remain with your Poodle, set her up in the whelping area and separate any males dogs in the house so that they cannot reach her. If your Poodle does not go into labor within 24 hours after her body temperature drops to below F, you will want to alert the veterinarian. Stages of Labor There are 3 main stages of canine labor.

During this heat cycle your Poodle will have discharge, probably be irritable and, of course — be able to get pregnant! If a dog is spayed, she will have her uterus and ovaries removed and as a result not go into heat anymore. How long do Poodles stay in heat? A regular heat is about weeks long. Your Poodle is not fertile during the entire time however. During the first days your dog is not fertile, only after 1. The heat goes along with the much-dreaded discharge. Many Poodle owners opt for doggy diapers when their Poodle is in season to keep their floors and furniture clean. How do I find a good baby daddy? Depending on your breeding goals, you will be searching for the perfect match for your Poodle. If you are planning to breed a pure-bred Poodle litter like Parti Poodles , choose a registered and health-tested Poodle as the sire. The American Kennel Club will help you get in touch with other Poodle owners. If you are planning to have a Doodle litter, the choice of dad might for example be: a Schnauzer for Schnoodle puppies a Bernese Mountain Dog for Bernedoodle pups a Golden Retriever for Goldendoodle , Mini Goldendoodle or F1b Mini Goldendoodle offspring an Old English Sheepdog for Sheepadoodle pups You should always make sure that both parents have passed breed-specific health tests so that the babies can have the best possible start into a long and healthy life! How can I tell if my Poodle is pregnant? If you hope that your Poodle to be pregnant, she has probably been in season and has been around an intact male. Whether you chose a purebred Poodle daddy or a different breed to create adorable Doodle babies, you probably cannot wait to know if the pregnancy took! If you want to know for sure, visit a vet on days from the probable day of conception. Your vet will be able to do an ultrasound on your Poodle just like on a human momma-to-be! If you do not want to take your dog to the vet, there is no way to accurately tell until about 5 weeks after conception, at which point pregnant Poodles start to visible gain weight and might show nesting behaviors. How many days are Poodles pregnant? This might vary by a couple days however. Smaller dogs tend to give birth a bit earlier than larger breeds If you are breeding Miniature or Toy Poodles, or crosses such as a Mini Goldendoodle or F1b Mini Goldendoodle , your dog may already give birth after days. He can take an x-ray to determine how many pups she is carrying. This will help make a better plan for the whelping. How many puppies will my Poodle have? The number of pups you can expect will depend on the size of the parents. As a general rule, large breeds have litters with higher numbers of pups than small breeds. Standard Poodle If the mom of your litter is a Standard Poodle, expect around 7 puppies. Fun fact: in , a Standard Poodle named Crystal made history when she gave birth to 16 puppies! Miniature Poodle For Miniature Poodles expect around 5 puppies. Toy Poodles Toy Poodles are the smallest type of Poodle and will have the smallest number of puppies in one litter. Plan for around 3 — though also singelton litters meaning a litter with only one single puppy happen regularly. Are Poodles good mothers? Most Poodles are good mother dogs. How well prepared you are You need to set the mom up for success and make puppy raising easy for her. Get her a spacious and soft whelping box. Clip the hair on her stomach so that the pups can nurse easily. Ensure that she is healthy and had prenatal veterinary care. How safe mom feels Being pregnant with, birthing and caring for a litter of puppies is a big task! Your Poodle mom needs to feel safe and cared for in order to be a great mom. If you have any other dogs, they should not be allowed to access the whelping box or disturb the female. She needs a lot of peace and quiet. Your support Prepare to spend a lot of time and effort supporting your Poodle as she is raising her pups. She will need a lot of specialized nutrition , especially as she is nursing. You are responsible for making sure nobody disturbs her — this also applies to small kids in the household! How often should I breed my female? First of all, it is a myth that every female dog needs to have at least one litter. Do not breed your Poodle just because you think this is required. Female dogs can live a long and healthy life without ever having puppies. Only if you are ready to raise a litter responsibly and with a lot of time and effort you should breed. If you decide to do this, three times should be the maximum amount of litters your female has. Every pregnancy and whelping will wear on your Poodle. While Poodles have a long lifespan , you should not breed a dog over the age of 8 or 9 years old. Even though your female could still get pregnant, this is too old to have puppies. Some owners breed their females 5 or 6 times. Do not do this! It is not fair to the momma dog and borders on puppy mill practice. It is a much better approach to have few litters, but to make them the best they can be. The Bottom Line Supporting your Poodle through pregnancy, birth and puppy raising can be a wonderful experience. Only commit to it if you are ready to spend time, money and effort though. Always make sure that the parents of any litter have passed breed-specific health test and never breed more than 3 litter off of one female!

They would go around with their masters to get their affection. The bassetoodles are curious dogs and would follow anything that comes their way. They would often get very nosey, enjoying sniffing your boxes, mail, purses, bags, dirty clothes, its bed or yours, and so on. Though they are affectionate, happy, and friendly in nature, they, at times, might display stubborn behavior.

They would also get noisy, if left alone for long hours, or are constantly provoked. They have a tendency to wander off if they find a scent, and if the owners are not keeping an eye on this. Care Exercise The playful bassetoodles love to play. Take them to the dog park every day, or play with your pet inside a safe, well-fenced yard since they can roam or follow scents. Though, regular exercise is also necessary. They love long walks. Take them out for daily walks with you, or for a little jogging. Also, make sure, you allow your dog to be without a leash for sometime every day, since they do not always prefer to be in a leash. Grooming These dogs are average to heavy shedders, and you need to groom them frequently. Brushing them at least 2 to 3 times a week is recommended. You can even bathe them once every two weeks to ensure cleanliness, as also to retain the sheen of its coat. A good brushing session would also resist the hair from matting.

Health Problems No breed specific health problems are reported, except for genetic and general dog diseases. Training These are quite intelligent dogs and are ever ready to please their masters, and hence, it is quite easy to train.

Give them proper training about housebreaking, obedience, crate, etc. But make sure you choose the right quality of food, and those that abide by the nutrition level that they need.

Bassetoodles can be stubborn, which means that first-time dog owners can find them a bit of a challenge in terms of training. Choosing to work with a professional dog trainer is the best way of finding out the methods that will suit these dogs the best. If you or your neighbors are sensitive to noise, you should know that these dogs love to howl! While they might not bark as much as some other breeds, they are capable of making quite a racket. They also love spending time with their humans — so much so, that they can suffer from separation anxiety if left alone for long periods. Bassetoodles are registered with several breed registries. The Bassetoodle will follow its nose anywhere. This hybrid breed has inherited the superior tracking ability of its Basset Hound parent. In terms of scenting capabilities, the Basset Hound is the second most capable breed at sniffing out and following a scent. Their Bassetoodle progeny are also keen trackers as a result! While tracking a scent, the Bassetoodle will let out a loud bark. A throwback to their Basset Hound parent, this bark is designed to let handlers locate their dogs. The Bassetoodle combines the best of both parent breeds. Your pup may look more like their Poodle parent but have the character of a Basset Hound or the other way around! The best way to be sure this is the right breed for you is to familiarize yourself with the temperament, personality, and appearance of both parent breeds. They will be quietly loyal rather than constantly seeking affection. This is especially evident when they find an irresistible new scent trail to follow. They will simply switch off from everything else, put their nose to the ground, and track! With pack dog parents on the Basset Hound side of the family, these dogs want to be around people and other dogs. A Bassetoodle left alone for a long amount of time during the day will soon start to suffer from separation anxiety. This can lead to undesirable behaviors, including howling, barking, and chewing or clawing your furniture. Bassetoodles are intelligent and excellent problem solvers. Are These Dogs Good for Families? The smaller size and short legs of this breed make them great around kids or elderly family members. Make sure each animal has a space of their own to retreat to if they feel the need. They love to cuddle with their owners on the sofa but are always up for a walk or play session too, making them ideal dogs for families with small children. One thing to keep in mind is that these dogs are immensely curious pooches with powerful noses, and this trait can lead them to wander off with a single-minded focus when on the trail of an interesting scent. This has caused them to have a reputation for being somewhat stubborn, but with good training, these dogs are typically obedient and eager to please their owners. The Bassetoodle is a rare and fairly new breed, and there is not much information about this unique dog. Dogs that are harder to train will require a bit more patience and practice. Proper exercise, nutrition, and hygiene also play an important role in the lifespan of your pet. More social dogs have a tendency to run up to strangers for pets and scratches, while less social dogs shy away and are more cautious, even potentially aggressive. Bassetoodle Puppies A post shared by Johnny Chops johnnychopsrrb While Bassetoodles are sweet, eager-to-please animals, on the whole, they do have a stubborn streak that can make training a challenge for novice owners. However, with patience, dedication, and the right techniques, they can be successfully trained, and the result is definitely worth it! If you are away at work all day and your Bassetoodle will be at home alone, they are probably not the breed for you. They get along great with other dogs, though, and leaving them at home with a friend will help tremendously. Basset Hounds are known to be fairly laidback, calm dogs but are accustomed to chasing scents out in the field, and Poodles have also been used as working dogs for centuries.

Their parent breeds do have a long history of working with hunters, although the instinct is more for tracking than hunting. Smaller pets like rabbits may be seen as prey, but it is easy to train your Bassetoodle to look the other way. Life Span Did You Know? The Basset Hound is a short-legged hound dog with an unbelievably advanced sense of smell. While the modern Basset Hound is French in origin and was popular with French aristocrats, it is thought that short-legged hunting dogs go back as far as ancient Egypt. It is also well-known that scenthounds were used as far back as the Roman Empire.

We are a small kennel situated on 5 acres near Ipswich, Qld. Our Goldens have been a part of our family for 25yrs and continue to contribute to a large portion of our family life. Lisa had a long and successful show career, securing her Australian title in just five shows! Since then, we have bred and shown a number of Goldens who have maintained successful show careers in the ring and within obedience. Warnock Canada , who had been breeding Goldens for 32yrs. Breeding and Showing has become a big part of our lives and the biggest hobby we have had during our lives. We strongly believe that all the testing we do and our time in the game helps us to fully understand the breed and know what we want when producing puppies. It is very important that we consider all scores before breeding to ensure that we are providing high quality puppies. We are lifetime members of the Golden Retriever club of Qld and i am currently on the board managing the Puppy inquiries for the club.

We offer puppies that are bred for exceptional health and temperament, as well as beautiful and unique physical features, namely their smaller size and dark rich golden coats. The puppies we produce become wonderful, loyal and loving companions and family members.

This creates great discussion and lots of arguments what is and what a Golden Retriever should look like and be. Some People in the UK believe they should split the Field and Show Goldens as their look and some characteristics are so different with others dead against it. My view on it is they all are sensational dogs and enjoy what dog you like and suits you the best. The original dog lord Tweedmouth created looks like the modern Field Golden retriever, that has remained pretty much the same in appearance over the last years due its use as a gun dog. You can see the old photos of the Goldens; the field goldens today are still pretty much the same now as then. This is what drew me to them in the first place and their high intelligence and trainability. The change in looks came when breeders from different countries had different interests from Lord Tweedmouth. There is something quiet spectacular when you see a show Golden striding across the show ring with their long hair flowing and their strong frames, however the more this type of dog wins in the ring the more the breeders breed for that type of dog obviously. That is where the change took place, breeders whose interest is in showing their dogs bred a certain type of dog based on a certain look and you will even notice a difference between show dogs in the UK, US, Canada and Australia. Similarly, the different style of shooting in each country you will find a difference between the dogs from these countries in look and characteristics in the UK, Canada and the US. A hundred years in dog breeding is a very long time as a new generation of dogs can be established every two or three years, hence the difference from all over the world. Most people in Australia recognise and relate to the show goldens in Australia, with field Goldens still very rare. Maybe a third the length of a show dog and as a result tend to shed much less which is an advantage with the Field Goldens. Can my puppy be a therapy dog? YES, Delta Therapy dogs have a great program where they train you to enter hospitals and nursing homes to give much joy to residents and patients. It is immensely enjoyable and rewarding and a lot of fun. Drummer has been doing it for the last couple years, he is totally amazing at it, he knows the dementia patients and pushes into them to get his cuddles. He gets as many or more cuddles from the staff and we regularly go over the prescribed time letting the staff give him cuddles. I always walk out of the nursing home feeling sensational. My other sire Dexster Junior passed the exam and is staring at the home and already nearly has as many fans as Drummer. I personally love the obedience competitions, they are a true test of your training, so many people love telling how good their dogs are but very few put them on the line in a competition. Like anything that comes with strong competition, some breeders look at ways to get an advantage over other breeders to sell their puppies. More recently some breeders have started using social media dog groups and or Clubs to try to gain "credibility" so to push potential buyers in a certain direct direction to sell their puppies. My advice is to do your own homework and be careful who is "offering" advice, look at the parents and what is best suited to your family and wish list, be it a show or field Golden, Dark Gold or Cream, at the end of the day most Goldens are great dogs and a joy to be around and will bring much joy to you and your family. They are super intelligent, affectionate and their rich dark gold coats stand out everywhere they go. Of high importance is that the parents have had their Hips and Elbows X-rayed and below the breed average, their eyes and hearts have been cleared by specialists and not carrying potential genetic issues and finally they have been DNA cleared of any potential inheritance genetic diseases. Ask people that have bought from a particular breeder their experience from the breeder and how the dogs are. Jump on their Instagram or Facebook and ask previous owners their experience of the puppies they have bought. I love putting my dogs out there and people who buy my puppies up on Instagram for everyone to see. New owners often contact people on Instagram and ask about my dogs which I love. Recommendations are the highest form of flattery after all. Backyard breeders, as distinct from responsible breeders, do not meet acceptable standards of care and breed animals irrespective of whether there is a known demand for the offspring. Backyard breeders often do not adequately provide for all the special needs of the mother and her offspring. Inadequate nutrition, infectious diseases e. Backyard breeding contributes to the unwanted companion animal population, and results in more animals in animal shelters. Backyard Breeders typical sell on Gumtree and are easily to spot by the fact they don't do Health tests. Due to the possible health risks Goldens potentially have they are not a breed to buy from parents that haven't had the full range of tests. A cheap puppy may end up costing you a lot later on in vet bills. The reason to wait until your Golden is at least 18 months old prior to spaying or neutering is to ensure they have a chance to fully go through their version of puberty. Golden Retrievers have their first heat cycle between 6 months and 18 months of age 9 to 15 months is the most common. A recent study suggests neutering after 1 year of age can decrease the risks of bone and joint abnormalities as your Golden grows. Waiting until after 1 heat also allows their urinary tract to fully mature and decreases the change of infections. In one large study of Golden retrievers by Dr. Torres de la Riva in , the chance of a cranial cruciate ligament injury was significantly increased if a dog was spayed early before 1 year old vs. This injury is the same knee injury as an ACL injury that human athletes often get. Spayed dogs live longer. A very large study by University of Georgia and another study by Banfield Pet Hospitals both found that spayed female dogs lived longer than intact un-spayed female dogs. The UGA study said they lived .Although the specific reasons for living longer are not clear, there is evidence in these studies that spayed dogs live years longer than dogs that are not spayed. Appearance The Golden Retriever should be a balanced dog, with symmetrical and pleasing features. Known for its kindly expression, the breed has dark, alert eyes that are capable of expressing a range of emotions. It has a large, muscular tail that extends all the way to the hock. The coat of the Golden is also distinctive: any shade of gold or cream, neither red, nor mahogany. It is a devoted and loyal breed with a beautiful temperament and an aim to please. It wants to be around its family all the time and will not be happy if left outside for long periods. The Golden Retriever is intelligent and responds well to training. The breed thrives on structured training programs and is a top performer in Obedience and Agility trials. Because of its friendly nature towards strangers, as well as friends, it is not suitable as a watchdog. Maintenance Golden Retrievers are a low maintenance breed. A puppy free from hereditary disease, apart from unforeseen accidents, will grow into a hardy dog. It sheds throughout the year, with two heavy moulting stages during that time. Daily brushing can help reduce the amount it will shed and prevent matting, which can lead to skin irritations. The breed is happiest when it is accepted as a valuable member of the family. The active Golden Retriever needs regular exercise, such as a daily walk and, if possible, a run. The breed also loves swimming. If it does not receive regular mental and physical stimulation, particularly as a puppy, it can become destructive. The Golden Retriever makes a wonderful companion for the elderly, people with disabilities and families with children. However, like with any dog, supervision is important when around children. Consult your veterinarian on treatment options. Desexing and vaccination against diseases, such as the deadly parvo virus and highly infectious kennel cough, are also important to discuss with your vet. Common hereditary problems include hip dysplasia, progressive retinal atrophy PRA , elbow dysplasia, hereditary cataracts and sub aortic stenosis. Before you make a decision, please make contact with the breed club or your State controlling body for purebred dogs.

It is the goal of the PDCA and all its members to help canines live longer, happier, and healthier lives by promoting welfare. 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.
