Please initial the following:
I understand doodles have specific needs in relation to their hair care and will provide adequate hair care and grooming as needed.
Rawhide chews are not ever recommended. Nylebones or other approved chew toys that do not pose a choking risk are to be used exclusively.
New puppy should eat 2-3 times per day with 3-4 soft bowel movements per day. Unlimited water during waking hours. Puppy will have begun potty training but expect to continue training for several weeks before puppy will be physically able to control bladder & bowels completely.
It is highly recommended that puppy be crate trained for best results with potty training, emotional security, and to also minimize any puppy to injury due to roaming freely.
I understand that puppies are high energy and will require almost constant monitoring for a period of time. Doodles are very smart and will learn quickly with attention and care.
I have read, understand and will abide by all pet owner responsibilities as stated above. Other recommended reading materials have also been provided regarding crate training and potty training.
I encourage sending me updates and pictures as your puppy grows and becomes a member of your family.

We leave the food and water out day and night to let our dogs eat at will. There are different theories/recommendations out there, but we encourage you to follow your own vet’s instructions. When switching to another food source, do so gradually to avoid stomach upset. Mix first food with some of the new food and add a little more new food every few days.
It may be necessary to add a tiny amount of chicken or canned food to entice them to eat the first few days of transition.
*Try to avoid hand games and rough-housing or tug of war initially. These games encourage aggression and biting. Fetch, toy play or learning commands are excellent play. As said previously, these dogs learn quickly and are eager to please. They are food oriented and will do well with small treats when caught behaving well.
*Do not allow the puppy to chew on anything that resembles something similar you don’t want them to chew on, ie: old socks, old shoes, wooden sticks inside the house (to avoid furniture as a toy) but good for outside platy to chase sticks. They cannot distinguish between old items and your best shoes. Have plenty of dog toys available and when needing to redirect, remove the object, say “NO” and replace it with an acceptable toy.
*There is no need to yell at or hit your dogs. Be consistent and make learning fun.
*High energy dogs will need toys, attention & exercise for greatest success with bonding and learning.
*Having a well fitted collar and leash is a must while outside for training. To keep dog from pulling on walks we have had great success with a harness with a chest hook. The earlier you break that habit the better (size makes them really strong). Let your will be bigger than theirs! Show them how you want them to act several times and reward good behavior.
Puppies need a safe play area in the home to adjust to his/her new surroundings. This also aids in house breaking. Baby gates also work to limit area of the house (kitchen, bathroom, or another area of the house). Being confined and safe, but able to eat, drink and play; also use papers or puppy pads if left alone for long periods. A kennel or crate is best to provide your puppy a safe place as well as a bed. They will look at the crate as their own den and will aid in housebreaking as den animals by nature do not like to soil their den.
Crate training can be fun for the puppy if you make it a positive experience. Giving special treats is a great way to introduce them to his/her crate. Use the same word and it will be no time at all that they will go into the crate with no anxiety. “Go to bed,” with a treat and they will run in.
Using the crate when you are away will help reduce separation anxiety.
Don’t be discouraged if there are some accidents in the crate initially. Follow a routine and the crate accidents will go away soon.
*Set your alarm for every 3 hours after bedtime, get up immediately and CARRY you pup outside. Place him/her on the ground and encourage them to “go potty’. Praise, praise, praise when they do and bring them right back to the crate. No extra playing at night. Just take care of business and go back to bed. Rinse and repeat. As success proceeds gradually expand the time between outside trips.
When the puppy can go all night in the crate without accidents, give yourself a treat! And take the pup outside before you do anything else, feed the pup then back into the crate before going outside again after eating about 30-60 minutes.
*Prevent the crate from being too large or they may soil in an area of the crate not used for sleeping. As they grow they will need more room and will be able to hold their waste for longer periods of time.
*Use the same words EVERY time. “Go outside.” “Go potty.”
*Don’t punish accidents. Praise success and reward.
*If no results are obtained, repeat in 15 minutes. Try not to just let the dog out, but go with the dog and give them plenty of time. You will sleep through the night again and have a happy healthy dog.
*Be patient. If done consistently, this training process should only take about 2 weeks for the puppy to understand.
*When your dog is a little older, you will find they will continue to use the crate on their own as a safe place even with the doors left open.
