Female Poodle Addition

2011-05-12T10:26:00.000-07:00

We have decided to obtain another Poodle, a Female Standard Poodle that we will be expecting to be breeding in Late 2012... This girl is of apricot coat color and is standard in size. We have had tons of requests for standard Goldendoodles and now we will have them available!
Our Standards will be 1850 as our mediums and Minis are, due to the extensive health testing that our breeding stock undergo and our extensive three year health guarantee.

We are thinking her name shall be:
"Xanadu"
{Dinin Honey Dew Drinkin Milk o Paradise n Rushville}
... That's just a thought :) Well, a well thought out thought... that's IT, her name :)!!!

Testimonials

2011-05-10T17:53:00.000-07:00

We constantly get asked for references from previous puppy owners and typically we inquire with the previous puppy owners and ask them to contact our potential puppy owners. We were asked why we do not publish testimonials on our website and have considered it with great thought and weighed out the pros and cons.

Pros: New puppy owners can get access to previous puppy owners without going through us.
Cons: Previous puppy owner's personal information is available to anyone on the web that happens upon our website. The conclusion we came to is that: We respect the confidentiality of our previous puppy owners, applicants.

We do not care to disclose our previous puppy owners personal information on the site for the entire world to see and have access to.
There are too many spam e-mail scams and believe it or not we get hot with tons of them and I do not want our previous puppy owners to have the risk of e-mail /telemarketer scams etc as people would have access to their phone number and e-mail address through our site.

So if you are seeking a puppy from us we will connect you with previous puppy owners so that their personal information is not posted all over the web. Please understand our stance and that we abide by a strict privacy policy.

*If the only people viewing our site were serious potential puppy owners then it would be fine to distribute their information on the site... however the web has all types of surfers and we prefer to protect the privacy of our previous puppy owners.
Thank you.

Golden Retriever Puppies on the way this december (2010)

2010-11-26T08:19:00.001-08:00

We are expecting a litter of Goldens from Geddy this December; she was bred with Bolt in October so these babies should be born early December. Geddy is a cream gold and Bolt is an English cream Golden. They had a litter in the past which were gorgeous blocky headed Goldens; They were so sweet and gorgeous we even kept two of them.

Both parents are health tested; hip and DNA as well as eyes. The pups come with a two year health guarantee, first shots, de-worming and vet examination.
We are licensed and Inspected by NYS PD#638; we are a preferred breeder with the CKC. All Goldens come with CKC and AKC registration.

Shaker can! Stop that Jumping!

2008-12-08T07:32:00.000-08:00

Instructions
Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need:
Dog
Coca Cola/Pepsi tin can
7-10 pennies
Person :)
Packing Tape

Step1Clean out the soda can, let it dry (takes about 2 hours or so). Put 7-10 pennies in the can, tape the top over with packing tape, tape the top real good, we don't want the pennies flying all over your house!

Step2Can is ready for action. Now as you walk in the door, into the dogs area etc (where your dog is prone to jumping) have the can in hand, and shake back and forth as your dog jumps.

Step3Dog should get the idea, then tell your dog to sit and praise for sitting, we are discouraging the jumping with a sound and then when your dog is sitting calmly you can give a scratch or pat on the head.

How to Train Hand signals to your dog

2008-12-08T07:31:00.000-08:00

Step1Find a comfortable and relaxed place in your house. If you are training a puppy it might be helpful to put a leash on. The leash may be helpful in preventing jumping and avoidance of distractions. The leash may help redirect your dog if he/she gets distracted. If a distraction occurs simply guide your dog back to the training area with the leash. Have some desirable treats close at hand, cheese and hot dogs work wonderfully.

Step2Begin by holding your treat in the palm of your hand, hold your hand flat and either crouch down to your dogs level (if your dog is a puppy) or stand infront of your dog. As you hold your hand up palm facing the sky, fingers straight out, treat in center say "sit" as long as your dog already knows the verbal command. After your dog does this treat and praise him/her and do it again... Repetition is the key!!! *If your dog doesn't know the verbal command teach verbal command by crouching to dogs level, hold treat in hand, raise hand above dog's nose and slightly back towards the dogs backside, this will put them in a sit, then say the command and treat as your dogs butt hits the ground.

Step3For the down command you will have to get a bit closer to the ground, closer to your dog. Put your dog in a sitting position. Hold your treat in your hand, hand facing downward, try to hold your treat with two or less fingers. Say "down" as you lower your hand towards the floor, this hand signal is the opposite of the sit command. When your dog completes his/her down praise and treat!

Step4Now you will want to generalize this to your dog so practice it inside, outside, at the vet, at the park, on a walk, in many different rooms of your house... etc. Also practice frequently. in a matter of a few weeks you will be able to give your dog a hand command and leave out the verbal command! Congratulations! Now your dog can listen to verbal and hand commands!

Looking for a puppy??? Want the right pick for your family? Like the looks of a lot of breeds but don't know what to choose? This set of instructions will help you tremendously!

Step1 Start by searching the internet and newspaper. Don't set your heart on one breed... If you have a great deal of land or space for a dog to run and play then maybe you should consider a herding type breed (border collie, Australian cattle dog). If you have a small house or apartment the best breeds are small type breeds (mini/medium Goldendoodle, cocker spaniel). If you have kids steer clear of the guard breeds, working breeds, Chihuahua) try the sporting breeds. If you are over 55 try a dog that can relax when you want to but be active when you want to (Bishon frise, the doodle breeds, Pomeranian). Ok now that you have a general idea lets really get started on learning how to search for the right dog.

Step2 Reputable Breeder qualities: -BBB accredited -Either does breeding as a business which means that this person spends their life with these dogs every day day in and day out, or the breeder is a hobby breeder who has a part time job or a work from home situation. I truly see a difference in professionalism and dog personalities when the breeder is dedicated to their dogs and puppies. -Breeder has dogs in home or a kennel that is sanitary, clean, inspected by local/state government etc... - Breeder has experience with dogs/animals for a long time, either with behavior, obedience, showing, horse racing & breeding, etc. Be sure breeder is an animal (at least dog) lover, this ensures that they give their all to their dogs. - Licensed and Inspected by local/state authorities, this ensures that the breeder is frequently checked and that any activity they do regarding the sales/breeding of dogs is regulated, this is a good thing because many breeders will have unsanitary conditions, this ensures the upkeep and health of the dogs, also usually the law of the state will protect the buyer in this case as well! -Breeder should be a member of a few organizations such as Kennel clubs, training organizations, etc. this shows they are dedicated to the breed and further educating themselves as breeders. -Make sure breeder has a contract, this means they really care about the puppy and want to be sure you will follow a few simple rules such as getting puppy fixed at 5-6 months, etc... - when in doubt ask for references, these should be from previous puppy owners and/or other breeders.

Step3 Call/e-mail breeder you have found. Ask the following if it is not clearly stated on the website: 1. when do you let the puppies go to their new homes? 2. what kind of health guarantee is there? 3. what testing (genetic, hip, eye) has been done to the adults? 4. what temperament are the breeding pair?**** 5. will you send photos of the pups development? 6. will you deliver/can I pick up puppy? 7. do you choose the dog based on my criteria/family style? ***please note temperament is not a general thing that just every dog should have the same temperament. Every dog is going to have a different temperament, but do know that if you are seeking a more "aggressive" breed be aware that temperament can play a critical part in your dog getting along with your family!!! However if you are choosing a dog like a Golden Retriever, a Goldendoodle, a Bishon, a spaniel, a Lab, etc temperament will most likely be sweet but it can also be active.

Step4 ok.. now that you have asked here are the answers you should get: 1. when do you let the puppies go to their new homes? Answer: 8 or more weeks.. never before 8 weeks should a puppy leave the breeder! 2. what kind of health guarantee is there? Answer: there should be a 2 year health guarantee. I shall elucidate on this though; many people are fooled by the fact that OFA hip tests can not be done prior to 2 years, that is INACCURATE! If you have a question regarding your dogs hips and want them tested at 5 months a OFA certified/Penn HIP certified Vet can conduct the test, it will not be certifiable (OFA only) until a test is completed at 2 years or more, however if a dog has a severe genetic hip disorder it will most likely show before 2 years! 3. what testing (genetic, hip, eye) has been done to the adults? Answer: for most breeds Hip testing should be done, many breeds should also be tested for Von Willebrands, and an eye test should be done as well. I prefer to buy dogs from Breeders who have conducted Penn HIP hip testing, CERF eye testing and PRA eye testing, OFA usually is done with the Penn HIP. These tests rule out genetic disorders. I also like to see a DNA profile on the dog as well. See my site for the list of DNA tests that should be done (I do these). http://goodlepups.com/healthtests.html 4. what temperament are the breeding pair?**** Answer: this will depend on your family but if you are a laid back family you do not want an active dog, if you are an active family an active dog is good... 5. will you send photos of the pups development? Answer: if you found the breeder on the web yes they should definitely send photos of the pups as they grow!!! 6. will you deliver/can I pick up puppy? Answer: they should leave this up to you, they should offer delivery, there is usually a minimal charge but they should not ship dogs alone on plane etc. Dogs should be delivered by a qualified person who can care for the dog during the ride. Dogs can go on airplanes but they must be accompanied by either the new owner or breeder. Many breeders are now being very cautious as to who comes into their home for reasons of the possibility of diseases entering the breeding area, this is understandable and should be accepted by the new owner. I allow new owners in after pups are 6 weeks and I will show a pup or two at a time while the person is at my home.

Step5 Continued: 7. do you choose the dog based on my criteria/family style? Answer: Breeder chooses dog based on family and the criteria the family has given to breeder. This helps make sure you receive the dog that best fits your family! ultimately breeder and family choose together but it is essential that the breeder has a say in the choice of dog for your family, after all the breeder knows the puppies best and can determine their temperaments best so that you end up with the right dog!
Step6 Now that you have asked, be sure your breeder is going to give you a list of recommended products for your dog. And be sure to ask for training advice as well!

Tips & Warnings
Don't settle on a dog too quick, it is ok to wait a few months, many breeders will put you on a wait list for the next litter, this is ok... This is a big decision and good things come to those who wait!
Make sure you get your dog when the time is right, try not to plan a vacation for the few weeks to months after you get your puppy, puppies take time and energy, and I know you want to be there for the growth and development. Plus it is essential for bonding!!!
Don't buy someone a puppy for Christmas unless they are expecting it!
Getting a puppy for a child is great but know this- your son/daughter may not be ready for the responsibility, as long as you are then having this puppy will be a pleasure, if not it will be a disaster!

Mini Goldendoodle puppy Training tips

2008-10-27T13:37:00.000-07:00

• Crate train/confine your puppy.
• Supervise puppy at all times
• Feed puppy 3X/day until 6 months or so.
• Brush/groom your puppy at least 2x/week.
• Massage gums but do not allow chewing on your hands! Touch puppy all over!!, ears, eyes, feet, etc!!
• Use vinegar, bitter apple spray, lemon juice or hot sauce to deter puppy from chewing on various things.
• Give puppy LOTS of chew toys, Kong products, Nylabone… Try to avoid stuffed toys or vinyl, it can be easily swallowed.
• Remember puppy is still an animal so if you don’t want your puppy on the furniture don’t allow it now!!
• Keep feeding place the same.
• Please do your training yourself, board and train is a nice thing but it is best to be involved and have your puppy bond with you right from the start, not a stranger!
• Keep puppy’s crate in a central high traffic location In your house.
• If puppy whines in crate only allow him/her out if you know they have to relieve themselves, if you start letting puppy tell you when he/she wants out then this whining will persist and carry over to everything puppy wants!
• Please discourage barking.
• Start training immediately and use hand signals, dogs cannot understand our language so you need to let your body talk to them!
• For potty outside please treat immediately after puppy goes to the bathroom outside, do not wait for puppy to come inside to give the treat, because puppy will not understand what they have done right!
• Crate should be big enough for puppy to turn around in, stand up and lay down but not big enough to eliminate in one area and lay in another!
• Discourage jumping right off the bat.
• Remember puppy is still a dog so give puppy enough time on the floor, I know you want to cuddle but give puppy his or her freedom to explore as well.
• Do not discipline puppy if you leave him/ her unattended and something gets destroyed, especially if puppy just lying there doing nothing when you find that something has been chewed or a mess has been made!!
• Use treats and praise for reward. When you are talking to puppy be sweet, talk happy talk and don’t get frustrated, especially when you are attempting to complete a task such as nail trimming, if you get frustrated then puppy will be 10X more frustrated!
Bonding occurs while training is occurring... so train daily, train frequently and be the boss, don’t let your dog think you are a dog too!
