Questions & Answers
Goldendoodles are a relatively new breed of designer canine that first appeared in the late 1990s. They are a cross between a Golden Retriever and a Poodle and are known for their loving and intelligent personalities. Not only are Goldendoodles wonderful family pets, but as a result of their Poodle heritage, they are often hypoallergenic a great plus for households that tend to suffer from allergies. Goldendoodles are also highly trainable and remarkably friendly, making them great pets for those on the lookout for a loyal canine companion.
Goldendoodles are generally considered to be hypoallergenic, but may still trigger allergic reactions in some people. This is because all dogs have allergen-producing saliva, dander, and urine. While Goldendoodles are bred to be non-shedding, they still carry the same allergen-producing proteins in their saliva and dander that any other dog does, so even individuals with the most sensitive allergies should proceed with caution.
Goldendoodles have specific dietary requirements and it's important to find the best dog food to meet those needs. It's recommended to feed your Goldendoodle a food specially formulated for them. Look for foods branded as ‘Goldendoodle food’ or those that are specifically designed for large and/or active breeds. This food should use high-quality sources of protein such as lean meat, fish and poultry and contain nutritious fruits and vegetables. Furthermore, it's recommended to avoid artificial ingredients and chemicals, as these can cause digestive problems.
Goldendoodles typically require regular grooming and exercise to help prevent matting of their coats and to keep them healthy. They usually need to be bathed regularly and brushed daily, though more coarse-haired Goldendoodles may need to be trimmed or clipped occasionally. Goldendoodles, like all dogs, should have their nails clipped regularly. Beyond grooming and exercise, Goldendoodles can benefit from mental stimulation through daily activities and games as well as simple socialization with other dogs and people.
Goldendoodles vary in size and can range from relatively small dogs to large pooches. Generally, Goldendoodles grow to approximately 22-28 inches in height and weigh between 35-50 pounds. However, there are Miniature Goldendoodles which are smaller in size than the Standard variety and typically grow to 15-17 inches in height and can weigh anywhere between 15-20 pounds. Overall, Goldendoodles can be considered small dogs depending on the size of the Miniature variation.
An exact time recommendation varies depending on the age and activity level of your Goldendoodle. Generally speaking, Goldendoodles need at least 30 to 60 minutes of exercise each day. For younger Goldendoodles, two short walks of 15–20 minutes each or three shorter walks would be adequate. For older Goldendoodles, longer outings of 40 to 60 minutes at a time would be best. Also, if at all possible try to play with your dog for an additional 10 to 20 minutes to help with their mental stimulation.
Goldendoodles are an excellent option for first-time owners! They have a low to moderate energy level, which is great for first-time pet parents who may not be used to the demands of a more high-energy breed. They are also extremely friendly and loyal and love to be around people. As for their grooming, Goldendoodles don't require extensive brushing and only need to be groomed about every two weeks. Plus, they are hypoallergenic, making them perfect for anyone who has allergies.
Goldendoodle training starts off similar to how you would train any other type of dog. First, start by teaching your Goldendoodle basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay'. Doing so will help establish discipline and will help them to know which behaviors are acceptable. To make sure that your training is effective, keep training sessions short, around 10-15 minutes at a time. Keeping the sessions positive is also key. Your Goldendoodle should be able to relate their response with positive reinforcement, not negative. Always reward desirable behaviors with treats and positive affirmation.
