Theo is truly adorable and with sweet and very even mood. Many dog owners don’t realize that many dog products(beds, waste bags, etc) are tainted with artificial fragrances that dog spreads all over, endangering health and life of self and owners. Its residue lasts for very very long time due to petrochemicals (NEUROTOXIC) Sometimes after being tainted, they can not be detoxed and just have to be disposed (Washing will not help but only ruin the Athenian washer and dryer) Vets don’t know to warn that due to fragrances Dogs vanish from liver damage years sooner and ppl get environmental illnesses including infertility, cancers, autism, dementia, asthma, and birth defects for generations to come due to genetic changes of hormone disrupters MAKE THE VIDEO TO EDUCATE PPL (and there is a must to see documentary on the subject STINK! on KZfaq).

THIS means a lot! And why we do it!

thanks for watching and you're going to have an amazing time with your new best friend!

Rebekkka- how big your puppy -full grown up?

milo is now my fav

Every time someone says in there comment “sorry if my English isn’t good” it’s literally the most well written comment I have ever read.

awwh you're the best ashley!

How has it been? Is he/she all you were hoping?

you'll love your new pup!!

Same

@@MyMiracleMutts Yes!! We love him so much!!!

i want one so bad but i know im not ready for a pup lol.

Hi im thinking of getting one. How are you getting on?

@@mattsidebottom7603 so it’s been 7 months and here’s what I have to say: In the beginning, puppies are literal newborn babies. You will have to get up in the middle of the night for a couple times during the first week or two (all puppies are different). You’ll have to watch their every move so when you can’t watch them because you’re doing work or something , it’ll be good to get a playpen and put some toys and blanket in there. Another thing, in order to potty train them you need to take the puppy out every hour or so. Other than those challenges, our little puppy has grown and she’s such a joy to have in our family. The beginning is no paradise and it’s definitely hard so you gotta be committed. But after the first month it’s smooth sailing. Let me know if you end up getting one!

@@rubythegoldendoodle7456thanks so much for the reply. Thats awesome. Its a huge decision so im being really careful considering it. We have two young children so i know it will be very hard like you say at the beginning. Thanks again for getting back to me

how is it going so far? I am getting my first puppy (had an older black lab rescue before) F1B mini goldendoodle and we are picking her up on July 17!

​@@tribiliter hi!! its going great, simba is now almost 7 months, in the beginning, its very difficult but gets better!! good luck on your journey, if you have any other questions, please feel free to ask me :)

Wow i literally just got a mini f1a goldendoodle 5 days ago and named him simba🤣

Laaaaaaame

thank you and i'm sure your new pup is going to enjoy their new home! :)

thank you! have fun with your new bffl!

I’m getting mine tomorrow AHHHH

@@shredbox6801 Thats fantastic I'm getting my f1 golden doodle in next week!

@Ben Bradley that’s great! I just have to wait a few more days, hope your doodle is everything you’ve ever wanted :)

@@turtleandjava my god they hate cages and they have very sharp teeth but still very energetic and kinda cuddly but definitely cute

They are SO cute 🥰

Awh thank you debbie! hope your boy is enjoying his new home!!

We are both enjoying each other, I am very nervous about the potty training so if you have any advice/support we would appreciate it. Keep posting please, love ❤️ and kisses 😘 to Theo.

@@debbieannisaacs2778 hi debbie! hope potty training hasn't been too bad! They'll have accidents and that's okay. If you haven't already, make sure to buy some pet clean up spray - there are ones for carpet and tile/wood floors that work like a charm. Theo goes out twice a day to go pee/poop. My best advice (I'm sure you know already) is to do your best to keep on a schedule. Having a pee pad in the house somewhere so they have a place to pee/poop urgently is smart AND tieing a rope with bells on your door is helpful too so your pup can tell you when he wants to go out to potty :)

Thank you very much for your advice, I guess the mistake I made was to only take him outside for a wee and a poop and as a result he is not taking the puppy pads seriously and from time to time he will have an accident in the house. However we have made positive progress. Just wanted to ask if you ever had the experience of Theo eating/playing with his poop, I am having this problem with Lion and it makes me so sad 😞. I have to constantly watch and as soon as he poop I have to move him away. I do not know what to do, please help, any advice.

@@debbieannisaacs2778 puppies playing with their poop is normal and it generally goes away as they get older. They're simply curious. What we did was that whenever he tried playing with his poop, we'll say no in a very deep-toned voice so he knew it was wrong and sometimes just simply have a toy handy to make that more interesting. Same if Lion plays with his pee pad too. If I remember correctly, the stopped playing with his poop (or tried to) when he hit 3.5-4 months. I know sometimes he'll still poop outside and then immediately try to smell it. I usually just say "no!" harshly so he walks away from it knowing it's not a good thing to do. I know being hard/yelling at Lion is tough but you have to do it! Basically have 2 vocal tones; a super high pinch voice for times he is doing good things and super low and angry voice when he's doing something bad like eating/playing with his own poop. Hope that helps!! Let me know if you have any other questions :) i know it is a bit frustrating right now but i promise it'll get better!

Thank you!!

thanks for watching!!

❤❤❤

@Johnson Johnson update...we got our fluffy baby Captain. Best thing we ever did!!! ❤️

@@frankeasterling8958congratulations!!! I ended up getting a second toy goldendoodle about 3 weeks ago

awwh thank you geraldine!

That’s interesting, because we did it the other way around. We had kept some old shoes, cables etc and purposely set them on the floor when our poodle was still a puppy and as soon as he would chew these old things, we’d “lecture” him. That worked for us anyway :)

Update?!

@@aritunes21 big update

@@aritunes21 he is 13 weeks now and 30 pounds when we got him he was 12, he made my mom cry making her bleed a lot :c and more I’m to lazy to type 10 paragraphs

thanks for telling us about the bones! we've actually started just giving him 1 bone to chew on each time and throwing it out when it gets too small. 100% agree that it is dangerous with little pieces of bones/anything with dogs. Sorry to hear about your clients. Really appreciate the comment!

those bones aren't the ones to splinter!!!! those are chews! they are actually good for the dog. Rawhide is what splinters and causes a dog to choke

Cora is a beautiful name :)

What a coincidence! My mini golden doodle is a multigenerational chocolate merle as well and my cousins dogs name is also a doodle named Korra!

we talk about it here! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fZ6IireB3trUhX2b.htmlttps://kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fZ6IireB3trUhX0.html

not too sure but i'm assuming since F1s are more closely related to their golden retriever roots that they'll have more of that breeds traits. Can't go wrong really.

he tells me all the time :P

Right!! Lol

If I’m thinking right, it’s a PVC mat/foam.

Alexandria is correct! I just went to the dollar store and taped 2 pieces of them together. Foam mats are cheap, prevents leakage from the pee pad, and easy to clean.

Visit the Amish puppy mills in your area. Barter with them on price.

@@louannelewis7264 never support puppy mills. they extremely unethical its not worth it.

thank you bart!!

im getting mine in may from lonestar doodles ... waiting process is long but im confident with them

@@dstarr2204 did it work?

@@xxprogamerxx4721 not from the same breeder but I definitely have one he turned 1 Feb 1 2022.. playful big baby

If you get one with hair more like a retriever they say it's less hypoallergenic.

Me too

I'm so sorry to hear that. It's a big responsibility but they are so smart that with just a few weeks of rigorous and strict training they are usually super easy to raise. Definitely don't rush into it but I'm sure whatever and whenever you guys are going to do your family is going to be incredible.

Be careful if poodle not supposed to feed people food/ high protein ive read.

@@dawndrew8313 hi I’m a dog trainer. It’s totally fine to use steak as high value treats. Same with hot dogs, and all vets say to do boiled chicken and rice for upset stomachs as well as canned pumpkin

Absolutely a reasonable question! For context, we crated theo as well in the beginning but realized after a week (and similar experience with the barking and whining) that it will be very rare that he will be crated at home or elsewhere (I work from home and always have someone home). So because our lifestyle allowed it and he behaved well by himself without being crated for times when we left him home for a few hours to do errands we decided to stop crating him. It all depends on your lifestyle, what you and your family want to do, and the behavior of your pup overall (it'll be harder in the beginning). For us, we didn't want to change so much of our lifestyle, esp if we know he didn't like it - like putting him in a crate every night, putting him in a crate in the car, etc. He just tags along with us wherever we go - like another human (he is one of us). TLDR: Do what works with you. We didn't end up crating because it didn't fit into our lifestyle AND theo was well behaved enough. Some occasional mistakes happened in the beginning but overall, it's been awesome. Hopefully that answers your question!

@@imtheobear Yes this answers my question. But if we didn't crate him, we are worried about accidents that may occur. What did you do or what do you recommend doing if we decide not to do the crate?

@@cameronwilliams3074 And it (accidents) will happen more often - in the beginning. A few things that helped us: 1. Introduce rooms/part of the house one at a time. Dogs don't like to pee/poop in areas that they think are their living space. Play with them there and give them treats often. Once they feel confident that its their space then open up another room and do it all over again until you're done. If you don't have doors blocking rooms you can always use a gate. 2. Set a predictable schedule. Take them out in a set timeframe. If they are having accidents more often then take them out more. Take them out to pee/poop before you leave them alone. They can't have accidents if they have no pee/poop in them. 3. Play with them before you go. Go on a walk, run, and/or play fetch/tug of war. They'll be more calm when they are more tired. 4. Leave them in small increments of time to start. This allows them to get use to you not being there but knowing you will come back. Don't be overly excited when you come back so they know its not a big deal. 5. Put your shirt on their bed. One tip i got from a friend was to put a shirt i wore during sleep on their bed/somewhere they'll most likely be at when they're home alone and simply by having your smell around them will calm them down (usually). 6. Get a smart camera. Leaving my dogs alone also gives me some anxiety sometimes so whenever i do i set up a 360 camera so i can keep an eye on him when i'm gone. It helps calm your nerves and also gives you a chance to see what they do while you're out. Hope that helps!

@@cameronwilliams3074 They will occur in the beginning. Have the deodorizing/cleaning spray ready, put pee pads around the house, and take your dog out before leaving them home alone or before you head to bed. In the beginning, I would rec doing your best to take them out every 6 hours minimum to get comfortable.

I'd like to know this too!

sorry for the late reply! his weight is around 25-30lbs. He's on the lighter side of minis for sure though. Thanks for watching!

On average they are gonna weigh 30 - 40 pounds

Congratulations! ❤️

Maybe get around a Standard Poodle. I am also allergic to dogs, but I am getting a Standard Poodle this March. They are Hypoallergenic. Goldendoodles are often not actually hypoallergenic, even though they are advertised to be so. Anyway, I didn't have any bad reactions at all to my poodle when I went to see him so maybe that's something you can explore! Sorry you weren't able to get your pup.

Golden retriever and mini poodle mix.

hi mcali!

Thank you @theo bear but sadly I had to get rid of Him he ate 14 chickens and 1 goat so we had to but it was the best thing for both of us

@@lowkeymaddie1 😃 how did he do that?

@@aritunes21 I went shopping one day with my best friend came home and my goat was dead and he ate 14 chickens before

Yes! Theo is an F1B :)

excited for you!!

about 28 lbs now!

theo is a f1b!

theo is a F1B!

facts LOL

he loves his antlers for sure! 10000% agree.

yes he is! so his hair is more poodle-like :)

yeah totally! we're actually cooking for him mostly now. Meal prepping so he gets all the right nutrients.

And you know this how? Just because you don't see them doesn't mean he doesn't have them. I can see a whole area in the living room with them all over the floor.

He looks like he has a bunch of toys

It was a joke, a bad one, apparently. :-/

Tough crowd….

It sure was. :-)
