Still a hyper puppy that tries to get into everything, but a really good girl! Contact us today for more information about our family-raised, hypo-allergenic, highly trainable Labradoodles. We started our breeding program with the best bloodlines to ensure we would be producing the most beautiful, intelligent, trainable and lovable dogs possible. We are grateful for the guidance we had when we started and we continue to improve the way we do things through training and education for more than 18 years. It is our dedication to excellence in the way we raise our precious dogs and train them that sets Texas Labradoodles apart. Most of the breeders were breeding true Australian Labradoodles. Since that time we have watched our amazing and magical breed of dogs become a world wide phenomenon with Labradoodles taking over everywhere. From being in the movies to being the number one choice for commercials, print ads and funniest video stars, Labradoo dles are everywhere. With this profound movement of the love of all things Labra doodle, the purity and purpose of what Labradoodles were originally bred for has become convoluted with many types of doodles. The Labradoodle breed itself is be coming a confusing mixture of levels of breeds, types of infusions into the blood lines, etc. Australian Labradoodles are produced when multiple generations of the original Australian bloodlines, Rutland Manor and Teagan Park are bred together. These two kennels began breeding these dogs to create a hypo-allergenic, low to non-shedding dog. These dogs are bred to be highly trainable dog for the purpose of being taught to be guide dogs or therapy dogs for people with allergies. It took these two kennels a lot of work, testing and breeding to get the breed to where it is today. It was not as simple as breeding a Lab to a Poodle, both great dogs, of course, but not a true Australian Labradoodle The importance of adopting a multi-generational Australian Labradoodle If you want a hypo-allergenic, highly trainable dog for your new family member or a dog for therapy work, you want to get a multi-generational Australian Labradoodle. Working with a reputable breeder that has many years of experience and a true love of the breed is important. Make sure the genetic testing and puppy care are done to ensure they are breeding the best and most healthy dogs possible. Dogs that are registered with the ALAA as multi-generational Australian Labradoodles are the most consistent breeding of Labradoodles that you can get. These dogs are going to have a consistent temperament and trainability level. This consistency and care to our breeding program helps our families to know exactly what to expect from their new family member. Clearing our dogs for potential diseases not only ensures that our dogs do not have these issues prior to breeding, it also ensures that we will never produce puppies that could have these diseases. The hip and elbow testing does not guarantee that puppies will never have hip dysplasia, but it is the best method that we have to prevent producing puppies with genetic hip issues. Hip problems are often caused be environmental factors, but culling puppies for breeding purposes helps to reduce the risk of breeding bad confirmation. Temperament, coat and trainability for different types of disciplines are key in our breeding program. Creating perfect family members, guide dogs, therapy dogs and best friends begins with breeding the perfect parents. Years of care and experience have made us experts at accomplishing high standards set by the ALAA and our own personal goals for our dogs. We know that a Texas Labradoodles bred dog is the finest of our wonderful breed and we are so proud to have produced such wonderful companions and working dogs. Please see our references page for more stories and letters from our families. November, .I cannot say enough good things about Mardee and Texas Labradoodles! From the beginning Mardee was very caring and knowledgable on all things Australian Labradoodle. It is clear she and her family love their dogs and take excellent care of them from the very start. She takes the time to match each puppy to their forever home and I scored the jackpot with my Maggie! I could not be happier with her sweet demeanor and easy going temperament. She is super smart, easy to train and equally as adorable. Even after bringing our puppy home Mardee has been a great resource and we are still in touch. I am so thankful to have found Mardee and Texas Labradoodles! Mike Tadlock .October, .Texas Labradoodles and Mardee were Amazing. She helped guide us through the selection process and we could not have gotten a better fur baby than Sadie. If you could meet Sadie and see her with us you would understand. We are obnoxiously crazy about this girl! We know others who have used Texas Labradoodles and they all feel the same. She has brought so much joy and happiness to our home. Paul Chapman 4. We recently welcomed the most perfect medium Australian Labradoodle into the family. I could go on and on about how wonderful this dog is and if you email me I will. That said, I have been equally impressed by our experience with this breeder. First and foremost, Mardee loves her dogs and this breed and that loves comes through in every single interaction and detail. They are true to breed standard. Go through all the appropriate genetic and health screens and, most importantly, are bred and raised in a loving home with plenty of outdoor country air. These dogs are not inexpensive but they are well-priced, given all the time and expense put into raising quality animals in the very most humane and caring of environments. If you want to know what to look for in a breeder - TX Labradoodle is the standard. Chris Monroe .August, .Highly knowledgeable, caring and experienced. Mardee and Bruce patiently answered all of my questions about Australian Labradoodle's and she matched us with the perfect addition for our family. Mardee provided a thorough background and documentation of care, and a detailed checklist for us to take home. June is 14 weeks old now and is everything we imagined and more. June, .TX Labradoodles are truly amazing, full of heart, and extremely knowledgeable! Mardee and her family have become our family! We have the 3 most gorgeous fur babies ever who bring immense joy and love to my life! We consider ourselves beyond fortunate to have crossed paths with Mardee, Bruce, and James! We are forever grateful! We love you tremendously!!! Thank you for making the world a better place with the most extraordinary fur babies!!! Brittany Meuth .April, .My husband and I recently adopted our first puppy from Texas Labradoodles and we could not be happier with our experience! Mardee has remained a resource to us even since bringing Murphy home and could not have created a better experience for us. She is amazing at what she does and truly loves providing families with amazing pets! Steven Roberts .We got 2 girls from Mardee two months ago. The experience could not have gone better. Loving environment, plenty of outdoor room, clean as a whistle and the pups are all we could hope for. No puppy mill atmosphere here. Solid solid folks and superior dogs. And another plus: Wimberley Texas is awesome. Karen Hernandez .I have truly been blessed by the forming relationship with Mardee and MOE. I did not realize how much joy at my age she allows me to experience. She is not my only dog that I share my life with, but she is definitely an exception that I must say is out of the ordinary. Mardee is very responsive and knowledgeable and her understanding of the breed. I can tell she only wants to breed the best genetics and protect the breed from becoming a backyard hobby only to make money. It is nice to see and know how much she strives to improve the breed. I think anyone looking to start or expand their canine family would be truly blessed. Google rating score: 4. Members Please email chaseh gmail.

Their coat is non-shedding and odor-free and works well with allergy sufferers. Our labradoodles are loved and well-socialized, which makes them perfect dogs for families with young children and homes that have other pets.

We are the only breeders that have paired these incredible breeds to create astonishing puppies who consistently deliver allergy-friendly silky coats, calm temperaments, and overall great confirmation. Our Doodles are loved and well-socialized which makes them perfect dogs for families with young children, first time pet owners, and families with other pets. However, our small size ensures that we are able to pay close attention to each of our Doodle puppies to ensure that they get the stimulation and the attention to reach their developmental milestones. Simply put, there are no puppies left behind at Texas Australian Labradoodles and Australian Sheepadoodles. The public is slowly recognizing the value of smaller programs that do not mill their puppies and a handful of Australian Labradoodle Breeders in the US are following our footsteps and cutting the number of adult doodles in their program so that they do not have to be housed in kennels. Although all puppies are beautiful and can enrich the life of any family through their unique personality, we love the Australian Labradoodle and Australian Sheepadoodle puppies! We want to help and give your family a lifetime of sweet memories to warm your heart.

To determine what food will suit your dog the best, check out 17 of the top dog foods on the market for Golden Retrievers, no matter their age. Check with your vet to determine whether your Golden will need any special dietary considerations. Foods considered toxic to Golden Retrievers are macadamia nuts, chocolate, onions, garlic cloves, grapes, raisins, walnuts, alcohol, and any foods sweetened with xylitol.

Be the first to know when we have new puppies! All Rights Reserved. They are growing quickly, so while they eat smaller quantities of food than adult dogs, they need to extract far more nutrients like protein, minerals, and vitamins, to sustain their growth and development. Different Dogs, Different Diets Nutritional needs vary from breed to breed. One only needs to look at golden retrievers to know they require a different diet than a Chihuahua! For example, joint and bone problems are much more common in big dogs than in little ones, but choosing the right puppy food can reduce the risk. Large-breed puppy food has reduced amounts of calcium and phosphorus, which helps control the rate of skeletal growth. Also, you may find puppy foods that contain glucosamine and chondroitin to support joint health and mobility. By consuming too much food, your puppy will have elevated levels of the very nutrients that should be limited. Additionally, overweight puppies may develop other health issues such as diabetes and heart disease. Good eating habits developed during puppyhood will lead to a healthy mature dog in the years to come. Nutrition For The Outside One of the most visible components of your dog is its fur. Nutrition plays a vital role in this area. A large percentage of the protein your puppy takes in goes towards maintaining its coat. Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids are also essential for healthy skin and fur. Which Food Do I Choose? There will always be those who buy the cheapest brand on the market. Some will opt for the most expensive, while others will simply go with a brand name they recognize. The key is to find the right food for your particular puppy. One thing you cannot afford to ignore is the nutritional content. Because they are still growing, puppies need more protein than adults. Proteins foster muscle growth and development in puppies and lean muscle maintenance in adults, so the more of it there is in a diet, the better it is for your growing retriever. Fats, too, are important for golden puppies because they provide the energy required for everyday activities. You should be careful, however, not to feed your golden excess calories because this will result in excess weight or obesity. Eventually, your dog will end up battling joint problems. For instance, less expensive dog foods typically have lower-quality ingredients. The contents are often inexpensive, low-grade animal protein sources, like by-products and fillers. Fillers are frequently things like cornmeal, rice flour, or seed hulls. In general, thoroughly review the nutritional content of your chosen diet. Are the ingredients wholesome and natural? Does the diet have controlled calcium and phosphorous levels? Is the calorie and fat content limited to manage growth? Does the label state that the diet is complete and balanced? This can lead to obesity and will certainly cause increased defecation. The latter of these two issues will make house training more difficult than it already is. By contrast, costlier dog foods usually have higher-quality ingredients. The scales will be tipped heavily in favor of high-grade animal protein sources and fillers will be few and far between. Price is not, however, a guarantee of quality. The best dog foods for a golden retriever puppy are made with high-quality natural ingredients and have high levels of protein. Make sure the food is complete and balanced for daily feeding and formulated to meet the nutritional needs of large breed puppies. At this point, golden retriever puppies have likely already been switched to dry puppy food and you should continue feeding your pup the same type of food the breeder used. From the day you bring them home until they are six months old, you should feed your golden retriever puppy three times a day. Ideally, your pup should have breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. A grain-free diet is the default meal for golden retrievers that are sensitive to grains, but if your dog is healthy, feeding her such a meal boils down to choice. A lot has been said about grain-free diets. Reports and studies have been carried out in recent years trying to establish any connection between it and Canine Dilated Cardiomyopathy DCM. That all starts with choosing the best puppy food for golden retrievers. Avoid low-cost foods that are more filler than substance, and look for better foods that are packed with nutrients to help your puppy grow. In particular, consider trying a large breed formula to meet the specific needs of your golden retriever puppy. Good nutrition is an essential part of any health regimen, and providing high-quality puppy food will lay the foundation for a long, and enjoyable life. You May Also Like.

Exercises Grooming From ancient Germany precisely around the 19th century had the now extinct mastiff breed Bullenbeisser and bulldogs brought in from England. At the time of their arrival, they served as hunting dogs for bears, deer, and other ferocious beasts, it would capture the prey with the help of its awesome teeth and detain it until the hunter arrives. And in the first boxer standard club was launched with a comprehensive document that is still in use today. Shortly after, the breed made its way into other European countries and got into the U. S in the late 19th century with the American Kennel Club taking registration of its first boxer around .During the first world war, boxers played the role of a military dog as a pack-carrier, a guard dog, and an attack dog, later they were taken home by the soldiers and got introduced into the domestic world as a show dog, best companion, and a reliable guard. One with so much life, energetic, curious, attentive, active, smart, sociable and incredible fun with children is the boxer, they are also known to be very patient and highly protective of their family members making them the love and desire of many homes. As active dogs, they need a lot of exercise to keep them mentally fit, apparently having a mind of its own, you will find your boxer entertain itself by digging the ground often, chewing, and licking the mouth to beat boredom. They are also very stubborn in character which makes them a terrible choice for first-timers with dogs, they are generally a bit difficult with adult dogs including dogs of a similar breed but friendly with puppies. They usually do not bark unless there is a genuine reason behind it but they love to growl. If you have occupied home with people around all the time or you want a canine buddy the whole time, then a boxer is just the perfect breed to get. Being a highly active dog, they dread loneliness and they can cope finely in both a house and an apartment as long as you provide it with enough room and spaces for exercises and activities. What you must have is a large yard if you are living in a house for it to dig the ground and run around as it likes. And more so, if you are given to being away from home most of the time, getting a boxer may not be the best for you and the dog, because they usually get aggressive when left alone. Boxers are known as loud snorers and they drool greatly too. Boxers are playful and very energetic dogs as such regular exercises are part of a good canine relationship, especially a breed of this sort. Your boxer should be allowed to play in a fenced area and on-leashed since it is likely to jump and leap around in excitement. This puts a boxer as a bad choice for a frail owner as they may find it a tad impossible and daunting keeping up with its excessive activity demands. Being a breed with a short and thin coat its grooming demands are quite easy and little, all it needs is a light brushing of the hair twice every week to maintain its good and gleeful looks. Bathing should be a once in a while since boxers are generally clean dogs and its nails, be trimmed once every month or as often as they grow worn on surfaces, its teeth should also be brushed daily to avoid tartar formation and other dental crises. Our Boxer puppies for sale come from either USDA licensed commercial breeders or hobby breeders with no more than 5 breeding mothers. We only purchase puppies from the very best sources, and we stand behind every puppy we sell. Frequently Asked Questions Are Boxers good family pets?

Labrador Retriever Puppies For Sale! Raise them in Connecticut! Connecticut is certainly a perfect place to raise a labrador puppy. With the state having so many parks and recreational areas, as well as dog friendly common places, your young pup will surely grow to becoming a healthy, happy, and strong adult. Labrador colors! Labrador lovers also have the great liberty of choosing from 3 main different colors which one they like the most. The yellow labrador is often associated with guiding the blind, the black labrador with gundog work, and the chocolate labrador as pets at home or for dog shows. Ultimately however, it has been discovered that each of the different colors of the different labradors are able to excel in either of these known traits of above par performance. So perhaps it matters little. Labrador origins! Labradors bred for show are commonly known as English Labradors and are more common in the UK. Labradors bred for field trials and hunting are commonly known as American labradors and are more common in the USA. However, many American labradors enter dog shows and many English labradors compete in field trials and are used for hunting. The more important question to ask, is are you ready to be a labrador puppy owner? The Basic 6 Questions Have you got the space to raise a large dog? Even as puppies, labradors need quite a bit of space. Whether it is indoors or outdoors. For the space they need outdoors, it is pretty obvious. These puppies can run long and far and need to stretch those growing legs of theirs. Indoor space can be more of a challenge. Labrador puppies typically bounce off the walls and their long, thick tails tend to knock down decorations found on shelves as well as glasses and anything else it comes into contact with. You may have to move ornaments onto higher shelves and beware of their growing teeth. They may be small but they sure are sharp and can tear up delicate furniture as well as seats and other fabrics found around your house. Labradors also need to be potty trained and as puppies need bathroom breaks as often as every minutes. If you live in an apartment complex or building, doing this may be a challenge. Some dog owners are able to use doggie crates to help potty train them but these do take up quite a bit of space. Ideally, having a garden would be the best. It is a contained space in which your dog can not only run around but can also learn to use the bathroom. Just make sure that you have a good system for cleaning up after them. Do you have the time needed to love a dog? There are numerous sad stories that have come out of new puppy owners admitting that they are unable to balance their regular work lives with raising a puppy. Older dogs may be a bit more independent and less in need of your loving attention but puppies certainly require more of your time, patience, and love. In the end, a young dog should not be left alone for long periods of time and if this were to happen, one cannot expect the dog to behave as you would want him to. A healthy reminder is that dogs that are alone will make tons of noise and break things that he can get his teeth on. If you need to go out and work all day, it is best to have someone in the house with him to take him out for walks, bring him to the bathroom, play with him, train him not to break everything, teach him what he can and cannot bite, and give him water to drink and food to eat. These tasks may be a lot to ask of anyone, so be sure that who you leave these responsibilities with is someone who also loves your dog. Beyond the necessary early training of a puppy , there is also the long term commitment in training your dog to be able to co-exist in human society with being a complete nuisance to everyone around. This daily commitment and regular interaction is what will teach your dog to behave and ultimately be a good dog. Training a dog is not something that you need to do only weekends. If you try this, you will see that by the time the next weekend arrives, your dog would have forgotten everything you taught him the week before. Dogs do not have the attention span to concentrate for over an hour, this is why it is necessary to train him everyday, throughout the whole day. Besides all of this training, there is also the exercise your dog needs. Missing a day here and there will not be so bad, but making this an important habit is also what will keep your dog in tip top shape. What about your lifestyle? Buying a labrador puppy will also change your lifestyle, for the better of course! Also, if you are one who travels often and would have to leave your puppy at home, then perhaps it is not yet the right time for you to be a dog owner. Sleep ins on weekends may be harder to achieve as well, your dog is going to demand your attention and will need to be fed, and taken out to go to the bathroom, and played with. Will having this dog fit right in with your family? Think of your puppy as a human toddler. That is the sort of attention that they need. But if your kids are for example, over 5 years old and able to walk on their own, speak their thoughts, no longer need to be carried all the time, and are accepting that your pet dog has important needs too, then this might be a good age for them and the whole family will benefit from having this puppy around.

Need help with training? Location of the crate will highly affect your efforts on how to crate train a puppy. Because dogs are social animals, an ideal location for the crate is within an area that the family visits often. This could be in the kitchen, living room, or bedroom. If you have noticed that your dog likes a particular corner or room to take a nap, or if you want your puppy to sleep in a particular location at night, then this might be the best location for the crate. Avoid putting the crate in an isolated area like the laundry or furnace room. Some fellow Doodle owners have done this with great success: Introducing the Crate, Step-by-Step Guide Here is a short step-by-step guide on introducing the crate to your puppy. Ideally, you should have the crate ready to go the day you bring your puppy home. The best first confinement session should be when the puppy is ready to take a nap and as early in the day as possible. This will likely be after a playtime, exercise, and going potty. Place a few treats, toys, or food inside the crate so that your puppy is keen on going inside on his own. If the puppy lies down elsewhere to take a nap, move him to his crate for the duration of the nap. Leave the room but remain close enough to hear your puppy. Some level of crying or whining is expected the first few times he is separated from his family members. Only release him from the crate when he wakes up, is calm, or if you need to wake your puppy up for feeding, play, or a potty break. Repeat these steps a few times before bedtime. Over a few weeks, gradually increase the amount of time that your puppy stays in the crate. Cap the max time to three or four hours until the puppy is older than five months of age. Prior to bedtime, your puppy should be exercised and secured in his crate for the night. Repeat these steps each day until he willingly and happily goes into his crate on his own. Avoid letting him out of the crate when he cries or whines. Ignore him until the crying stops. The location of the crate, as well as the techniques you use for crate training should be designed to keep the crate association positive. For example, your puppy should be encouraged to sleep, nap, or play with his toys in his little den. On the other hand, be mindful that if your dog is confined at a time when he is in need of play, attention, or to go potty, then he may try to escape the crate and experience anxiety. Likewise, never use the crate or confinement area as a punishment. This may make puppy feel trapped, anxious, and frustrated. This is the most important goal in how to crate train a puppy. A radio or TV may help to calm your dog and may help to mask environmental noises that can trigger crying or barking. Here is a good rule of thumb. Only leave a puppy in his crate in hours equal to the age in months that he is. Example: if your puppy is two months old, only leave him in the crate for up to two hours at a time. Never leave your puppy in his crate for longer than he can control himself or he may be forced to go potty in his crate. If your pup must be left for longer than he can control elimination, a larger confinement area with puppy pee pads, or access to outside through a dog door, will be necessary. Second, puppies need a certain amount of socialization. Some level of crying or whining is expected the first few times he is separated from his family members while in his crate. For some unfortunate souls, your puppy may be rather relentless with the crying for much longer than that. However, the crying might persist longer than that if certain actions are taken when he cries. For example, avoid letting him out of the crate when he cries or whines and ignore him until the crying stops. Moreover, only release him from the crate when he wakes up, is calm, or if you need to wake your puppy up for feeding, play, or a potty break. If the crying does not subside on its own, you might find that a mild interruption helps. A mild interruption could be some kind of sharp noise, like shaking a can containing a few coins. A quick squirt from a water gun may also be effective. During the interruption, you should remain out of sight, so that the puppy does not learn to associate the interruption with your presence. Though not always viewed as a favorable option, another way to discourage crying or barking is to use a bark-collar or similar device that produces an alarm or distracting spray when he barks. Avoid any interruption that causes fear or anxiety. These are not mentally healthy for your dog and could make the crying worse. They can even cause him to go potty inside the crate. Whether you cover the crate depends on your dog. Some dogs love the security provided by a darkened, enclosed space, while others can feel anxious in a confined area. A crate cover can help reduce anxiety and soothe dogs by limiting visual stimuli, which in turn can prevent excitement and barking. Source As with crate training, a gradual introduction to a cover on his crate is the best way to get him used to it. For steps on introducing your dog to a covered crate, check out this article. Well, the same way you would crate train your puppy during the daytime! The only difference is that he and you will be sleeping hopefully and that he may be able to go longer periods without needing attention. Is it Cruel to Crate a Dog at Night? No, it is definitely not cruel to crate your dog at night! The crate still provides the same benefits mentioned at the beginning of this article during the nighttime. Some crying is to be expected the first few nights your puppy is in his new home. What do you do when your puppy cries at night? If your puppy cries in the middle of the night, you have some choices on what to do. You can ignore him or use a mild interruption, as discussed above. You can comfort him by letting him know that you are present. You may also talk to him a bit if necessary, or put your hand on his crate. Another option is to sit or lay on the floor for a few minutes right when he goes into the crate if he is especially upset. Also, new Doodle puppy owners are swearing by Snuggle Puppies left and right. The Snuggle Puppy helps puppies with its pulsing heartbeat and heat pack, simulating the comfort of mama. It is perfect while crate training, as it reduces whining and barking, and it helps puppies transition to their new home. The result is a calmer puppy who feels less loneliness, fear, and separation anxiety. Conclusion What Is Crate Training? So, what even is crate training? As the name suggests, it is the process of training your pup to sleep overnight in his crate. Crate training has loads of benefits for pet parents. Traveling A crate-trained pooch is an absolute must for frequent flyers. Your dog must be crated on trains, planes, and buses, which really helps if he is crated in the car. This keeps your pup and other passengers safe. Protect Your Pup When I was renovating my kitchen, my dog was completely intrigued by the noises of the construction. Every time the jackhammer would start up, he would run toward the kitchen to investigate. So, I had to speed up my crate training process to safely crate my pooch in my room for a couple of hours a day. Crating your pup also keeps him safe from household supplies that can seriously harm him, including rat bait, mouse bait, fabric softener sheets, antifreeze, or insecticides. Protect Your Home Sometimes, even the most well-behaved pup tends to behave a little naughty. This could manifest in destructive behaviors like ripping up cushions, peeing in random corners of the house, and getting into the trash. To prevent this, teaching your dog to enter his crate all by himself is good. Potty Training Since dogs are den animals, they are naturally predisposed to keeping their toilet area separate from their sleeping area. This will foster the habit of peeing on the pad, which is invaluable for further potty training. A common question that pet parents of Goldendoodles have: Are Doodle puppies easy to crate train? Or can a Goldendoodle be crate trained? The answer is yes! Thanks to their Poodle genes , Goldendoodle puppies are extremely intelligent. Thanks to their Golden Retriever genes, they are also very eager to please. This winning combination makes most types of training a breeze! With consistency, hard work, and dedication, you will definitely be able to crate-train your Goldendoodle pooch. Crate Training Steps So, how exactly do you start crate training? Or how do you train a Goldendoodle to sleep in a crate? Start by selecting the best crate for your Doodle puppy. The crate should have enough ventilation holes if you live in a warm, humid climate. This will keep your pup more comfortable with entering the crate. Keep the crate near you in an area with a lot of foot traffic. Let your dog investigate the crate of his own volition. Do not close the door yet, even if your pup enters. Use Cues Now that your dog is used to entering the crate, you need to start associating the action of entering the kennel with a verbal command. Reinforce the Commands At this point, the most important thing is to reinforce the verbal commands you have laid the foundation for. When he does, give him tons of treats and verbal praise. Close the Door At this point, you are ready to start closing the kennel door. Once your Goldendoodle is able to enter the kennel once you say the command, you will begin to close the door after him. After a few weeks of training, you will find that crate training your Goldendoodle puppy at night is a breeze! Crate Training Schedule So, how do you schedule your crate training process? Week 1 Acclimation This first week should be all about getting your dog comfortable with the presence of the crate. A large crate can look intimidating to a teeny tiny pup. This will entice your pooch to stick his head in, and he will become more comfortable with entering the crate. If you throw in a few toys or treats, your dog is more likely to enter. Week 3 Closed-Door Training Now, each time your dog enters, shut the door behind him. Keep it closed for only a few minutes, let him out, and then reward him heavily with treats! You can also test out the verbal cues you established in the previous week. Weeks Continuing Training As your Goldendoodle starts to get comfortable with being in the crate with the door closed, you can increase the length of time he is in there. Slowly increase it by 30 seconds at a time, repeated multiple times throughout the day. Eventually, you will be able to leave him in there for hours at a time! You can even try to leave your Goldendoodle in the crate overnight, but let him out if he whines for more than 15 minutes. Do not leave your pooch in the crate for more than 6 hours. Week 6 Overnight Crating Now, you can try leaving your pup in the crate overnight. Take your dog out for a potty break, give him tons of exercise, and keep a potty pad in the crate. Lead him to the crate and gently close the door behind him. Take him out for a bathroom break at least 30 minutes before you begin training. In a few weeks, your dog will be totally comfortable with dozing off in his kennel overnight!

Set your crate up in a high-traffic area of the house. This can be in the living room or room where your puppy will spend most of his time. Make it homey with a few toys, but not the special ones, and a blankie or two. They might even go in and out several times to get a treat, and you should oblige. Soon all you have to do is say kennel, and he will know what to do. Step Four: Play Fetch! If your puppy is having difficulty going into the crate by himself, a game of fetch might persuade him. Start by playing a game of fetch with his favorite toy in the same room as the kennel. After a bit of back and forth, throw the toy into the crate. And when your puppy goes in to get the toy, give them a treat and praise. Soon they will overcome their fear of the big scary metal thing and go in alone. Then you can give them a treat every time they enter alone. Once you have done this for a few days, you should tell them the order, and they get into the crate before getting food. They will eagerly get inside for anything. First, you want to start slow. Start by meeting their needs first: eating, drinking , potty, and collar off. Then give your puppy the crate command. Once in the crate, give your puppy a treat and a special toy. Make your puppy think you are leaving the house by walking out the door. Once the time is up, go inside to let your puppy out and give him praise. By slowly increasing the time your puppy is alone, you teach him that you will always come home. Keep at this; your puppy will go for hours alone in the kennel by the end. A puppy can only hold their bladders for about an hour every month they are of age. So a puppy who is only four months old can only hold their pee for four hours. And it seems easy as pie. But a few things can go wrong in the first few months of training and ruin all success. Here are a few things you never want to do if you want your puppy to learn quickly. Invade Space The first mistake that people make is invading the area. Your puppy is still learning how to use this crate. And you want it to feel like a safe and quiet place to escape when needed. Think of it as their room. If your puppy is in the kennel sleeping, eating, or exploring, you should leave him be. Use It As Punishment Using it as punishment is the next thing that can ruin crate training your puppy. Using the crate as punishment will make your dog feel like he has done something terrible every time you leave the house. Instead, you should redirect your puppy. Cleaning potty messes with urine cleaners and taking them for a walk helps with potty training. And if your puppy is chewing, turn their attention to a toy that is safe for gnawing. This method keeps the crate safe and solves the issues more effectively. We are just as happy to see our puppies as they are glad to see us. But if you make too big of a deal out of leaving and coming home, you could start anxiety in your dog. Sad goodbyes tell your puppy that your leaving is a bad thing. And happy hellos give your puppy anxiety waiting for you to come home. So you will want to keep both of these times cool and collected. Give your puppy the kennel command and leave neutrally, like all you do is brush your teeth. And when you come home, take care of business first. They will be happy, but a potty break is imminent, and after, you can give them a proper hello with a friendly game. Letting Out For Whining Chances are, you will crate-train your puppy at night as well. And if you tried this, you know your puppy will try to pull the heartstrings. How do I get my puppy to stop whining in his crate? But if your puppy is young, keep track of the time spent in the kennel. Is It Simple? You might be wondering if this is for every puppy. Or are Goldendoodles high maintenance? We assure you that every puppy goes through this, no matter what breed or age you start. But with our guide on crate train a Goldendoodle puppy, you will be smooth sailing in no time. Below is a Pinterest friendly photo…. Sharing is caring! So, how do you ensure that your puppy is comfortable and well adjusted to their crate? Platinum Goldendoodles is here to help you on your journey to crate training! Make sure to invest in a divider for the crate, so the space can grow with your Goldendoodle. Never force your puppy to get into the crate. Ignore the temper tantrums. Removing them at the first whimper will teach the puppy that is all it takes to regain their freedom! No yelling zone! Furthermore, never yell at a puppy while they are in the crate. A crate is supposed to be a safe place for relaxation and sleep. This will lead the Goldendoodle to associate the crate with fear! Ignore any demands from your pup and carry on with business as usual. Do not leave your puppy in the crate all day and night. Investing in a puppy is an agreement to make the 2 am wake-up call so your Goldendoodle can go potty! Make a place for puppies! A crate should be a place for your Goldendoodle to calm down, unwind, and feel at ease. Fill the crate with their favorite chew toys and comfort items. You can also use a blanket to drape over the crate, so the space is free from outside distractions. When you can, leave the door open so they can explore the crate on their own time. On that note, never use a crate as punishment. Praise, Praise, Praise! Your Goldendoodle needs to know that its crate is not a place for punishment or negativity. You can use treats to reward them once they enter their crate and always use lots of praise! One treat to entice them in and another once they have entered. Positive reinforcement is key when it comes to training any dog. Slow and Steady. It would be a shock to anyone to go from having the freedom to roam, to hours spent in a crate! When beginning crate training, start with small increments of time and slowly increase the duration. Once they are comfortable during the entire 20 minutes, you can increase the time! This will avoid fostering any feelings of fear and anxiety during crate time. Potty Breaks. Before crating your puppy, make sure they have used the bathroom! If they are whining to get out, you can eliminate the possibility that they need to go outside. But, sometimes, accidents do happen. Try not to stress and try, try again. Potty and crate training is a learning process that is developed over time. It is all a part of the journey to having a well-behaved Goldendoodle. Find the right size. As mentioned before, having the right crate for your puppy will make a huge difference. Utilize a divider to ensure they have a cozy space, and no room to create a potty corner! You can also use a small bed to sleep. All in all, crates are a fantastic tool for training and a great way to make your Goldendoodle comfortable in their new environment. How you interact with crate time will make the difference between the crate being enjoyable and a place of anxiety. Just remember, use lots of praise, avoid yelling, and enjoy your new addition to the family! Goldendoodle vs Bernedoodle vs Sheepadoodle On day one, you may simply want to feed your pup in the crate and initially let him sniff the place out without even closing the door. Once he is familiar with the crate, you can start closing him for short periods of time and always reward him with treats upon entering the crate. At the beginning, make sure your pup can still see you - this helps your doodle relax and settle sooner. On this note, we have found most puppies adapt more quickly to sleeping through the night in their crate if they are in the same room as a human. Still, you can expect the first few nights to be quite difficult. The first few days can be extremely difficult, but your consistency will pay off. Many owners find it difficult to be consistent because of their worry that their dog is miserable with crate training and, true enough, the puppies can sound really pitiful in there. But stay strong and remember that you are actually helping them in the long run for the times that they must be left alone when you go out. Keeping your puppy in a kennel while you are gone not only keeps them safe, but when utilized correctly, the crate actually feels like a safe, cozy place to your pup and will help keep him calm and rest when he must be left alone. Keeping a routine is key so your pup knows what to expect. Allow pup to settle for about five minutes before you let him or her out. The only time this does not apply is in the middle of the night. You will know you have mastered this important aspect to training when your pup voluntarily enters his crate to rest or nap without even being instructed to do so! A well crate trained pup makes grooming, boarding, and traveling much easier for you and your pup.

Both the International Australian Labradoodles Association and the Australian Labradoodles Association of America are working hard to incorporate more intergenerational breeding so these dog breeders can register this type of dog as a purebred dog.

For German Shepherds that have been vomiting only for a short time but have an appetite and are bright and alert, withholding their next meal for about 12 to 24 hours is usually very effective. Typically, in mild cases, withholding their next meal may be enough to get them over their vomiting episode. As a result, the digestive system can rest, and the irritated stomach can heal. When their stomachs are upset, many dogs will naturally be reluctant to eat, but some will continue to consume almost anything you put in front of them. Remove all food bowls immediately and leave fresh water available to them to avoid dehydration. Increase their water intake.

Noon After a nap, take your German Shepherd for a quick walk again to give them a chance to stretch their legs and prevent stress. Refill their water and give them a small serving of their bland diet. Keep a record of how frequently they get sick as well as the color and texture of their vomit. Afternoon Feed one more small serving of a simple-to-eat diet menu item. Make sure they are drinking and replenish their water. Watch out for any additional signs of illness in your German Shepherd, such as lethargy. Evening Give your German Shepherd one last small meal from the bland diet as their vomiting improves. After another brief walk, play a mind game with them to keep their minds active and reduce stress. Check that your German Shepherd has access to fresh water before you go to bed.

How to Prevent Vomiting in German Shepherds Sometimes, you can prevent a German Shepherd from throwing up by using a bit of common sense. To keep your dog safe and healthy, follow the tips below for preventing vomiting: 1. Put all unsafe items out of reach. Take precautions to keep all medications and household dangers, including cleaning supplies, trash, and garbage, as well as strings and small toys that can be swallowed, out of reach of your German Shepherd. Keep an eye on what your puppy might find interesting to chew on and remove it immediately! Feed your German Shepherd a consistent diet. Instead, find foods for their sensitive stomachs that are soothing to their guts. Besides a consistent diet, stick to a regular feeding routine. A consistent feeding schedule can keep their stomachs from becoming too empty, which can increase vomiting in some dogs. Consider that many dogs with stomach issues may also have underlying allergies. This can stem from their foods or environmental factors and show up as skin itching and scratching, redness, and fur loss. Either way, there are dog foods for German Shepherds with allergies that may prove useful in these cases. Invest in a slow feeder bowl when you own a German Shepherd that gulps down his food. Stick to healthy treats. Feeding bones, fatty foods, and table scraps can increase the likelihood of vomiting and are not good for the stomach. When you want to reward your German Shepherd, use highly digestible treats that are less likely to cause vomiting. I recommend.

Some causes of vomiting are obvious, such as the dog overeating or eating garbage. However, there are also gastric causes of vomiting, which are due to diseases of the stomach and upper intestinal tract. There are also non-gastric causes, which are caused by diseases of other organs that result in an accumulation of toxic substances in the blood. These toxic substances stimulate the vomiting center in the brain, which makes the dog throw up. Dogs also puke two different ways: Vomiting and regurgitating. It will help them decide which tests to run and make it easier to determine what might be wrong. Dog Vomiting Symptoms When a dog vomits, they eject the contents of their stomach and upper intestines. Their body tenses as they gag, retch, and heave before upchucking. They simply lower their head and expel the contents of their esophagus without making much noise. The food is effortlessly coughed up, sometimes covered with mucus, without the muscle contractions and noise that happens when they vomit. It can happen for many reasons. In otherwise healthy pets, the vomiting or regurgitation is usually a single episode with no other symptoms. In other words, the dog seems fine and is going about their day, business as usual. After that, feed a small meal of a bland diet, such as boiled chicken with the fat removed and rice. If the dog holds down the food, slowly mix the bland diet in with their regular food for a few meals. During this time, allow the dog to drink water. Here is a list of additional foods that can also help a dog with an upset stomach. When to See Your Vet For Vomiting As mentioned above, there are some serious health conditions that may cause vomiting in dogs. Some Serious Health Conditions Associated with Vomiting Pancreatitis Can occur after eating something high in fat or greasy, like fried food, cheese, butter, or garbage, etc. Symptoms usually come on very quickly and may not always be associated with diet indiscretion.

Diabetes Diabetes is not something that we think of when we think of canine ailments. However, it is not unheard of for German Shepherds to be diagnosed with this health problem.

While your dog is recovering, it is imperative that he or she gets a lot of rest and refrain from physical activity. Your dog should be monitored closely for the first few days. If they start to vomit or show any signs that their health is deteriorating, you should call the vet immediately. Hip Dysplasia This is a common problem for German Shepherds and other large dog breeds. This is a genetic disorder that usually happens while the German Shepherd puppy is still in the growth stage. The hip socket is more shallow than usual and it causes the hip joint to become loose, which can cause a lot of pain for the dog. Sometimes, hip dysplasia can go unnoticed, but over time, it can cause a dog to develop other problems, such as arthritis and muscular issues. Some of the most common signs that a dog is experiencing hip dysplasia include: Limping for seemingly no reason Hopping when running Popping sounds coming from the joint Slow to stand up Slow to lay down Difficulty getting on and off beds, couches, and other furniture If you notice any of these signs and symptoms, it is a good idea to schedule a vet visit for your dog. There are a few different treatment options available for dogs with hip dysplasia, including surgery. Your vet will examine your dog and determine the best course of treatment. Elbow Dysplasia Elbow Dysplasia is just like hip dysplasia, except for the fact that it affects the elbows and not the hips. The symptoms are also going to be similar. You may notice your dog limping or not wanting to run. Just like with hip dysplasia, surgery is also a treatment option. But sometimes, a vet will try to just manage the pain if the dysplasia is not severe. Cataracts Sometimes it seems like these dogs grow up so fast. In truth, when German Shepherds stop growing is at 18 months. As German Shepherds age, some have been known to develop cataracts. This is the same eye disorder that humans can get as well. It is pretty easy to tell if your older dog has cataracts as you will be able to see a noticeable white film develop on the lens of their eyeball. If left untreated, cataracts can cause your older dog to go completely blind in that eye. Another thing to note is that German Shepherd skin issues are fairly common.
