Are Goldendoodle Puppies For Sale In Phoenix Arizona A Good Fit For You

By Brian Fisher


Anyone who is in the market for a pet must think carefully about the type of animal that will fit well with his or her lifestyle, environment, and financial situation. Whether you are a dog lover or a cat lover, any animal you choose is a long term commitment you must be ready to make. If you have young children, you need to make sure they will be safe with any animal you pick. Goldendoodle puppies for sale in Phoenix Arizona have become more and more popular over the last few years for several reasons.

Poodles have been crossbred with other dogs, including the Labrador, before it was crossed with the Golden Retriever. Since Goldendoodles are a fairly new breed it is not currently recognized by the official associations. The animals' characteristics are also evolving. One of the most important reasons not to purchase a puppy from a mill or an unrecognized breeder is the inability to accurately access the traits of a specific animal. Cruel treatment will distort the characteristics normally associated with any breed.

Individuals looking for a family pet rather than a show dog will be interested in considering the Goldendoodle. These are fun loving animals with outgoing personalities. They generally respond positively to children of all ages and are not bothered by other pets that have already claimed territory in the household.

One of the pluses of choosing this dog is the ease with which most of them respond to training. They are intelligent animals, eager to please, and happy with the attention. As with most pets, training should begin when they are young and remain consistent throughout their lives. Positive reinforcement is the best way to get them to cooperate.

This breed is active, but not overly excitable. They must be exercised every day, but will enjoy a walk in the park as much as the free run of a big back yard. Goldendoodles are not animals that can be confined in crates or left alone for long periods of time. It is easy for them to get bored and restless which can end in the destruction of furniture and any clothing within their reach.

Even though it is still a new breed, all evidence points to its being very hearty and robust. Annual veterinary visits should include special screening for eye and skin disorders and hip and elbow dysplasia as these are weaknesses some of the animals may suffer. Goldendoodles also tend to gain weight as they age, so attention must be paid to that aspect of their health.

Since they are still a young breed, their size and coats vary. Some are very sturdy and heavy bodied. Others are slender. They may or may not be appropriate for people with allergies. They don't require excessive grooming, but they do need to be brushed and bathed regularly. Their toenails should be kept short, and the hair over their eyes trimmed back.

Pets are usually a great addition to a family. Most of them become devoted companions and beloved members of the household. Goldendoodles are a good choice for those who have the time to give them the attention they need.
