Introducing Children To Pet Care

If you are considering getting a new dog and have decided that you want a Goldendoodle, this is a good choice. It can be helpful, however, to learn about this breed before you spend your money. To help, below are three facts about a Goldendoodle. 

Great for Allergy Sufferers

People that have allergies are generally allergic to dog and cat fur and dander. If you or someone in your family is like this, you will be glad to know a Goldendoodle may not bother their allergies. 

Most Goldendoodles do not shed a lot so you will not have to worry about a lot of fur on your furniture or flying in the air. No matter what breed you have dogs do have dead skin cells — which is also known as dander — that someone may be allergic to. To help with this you should get your Goldendoodle groomed and bathed regularly to remove the dander. 

Great Athletes

You need to be an active family if you choose a Goldendoodle. This is because they need a lot of exercise to keep them happy. They also love to lay on the couch with and cuddle at the end of the day, however. Goldendoodles are active because each parent is a retrieving breed, which is the poodle and golden retriever. Getting this exercise is not difficult. You could play fetch with your dog outside, take them with you on a walk or jog, and take them to a dog park. 

The amount of exercise your Goldendoodle needs depends on their size. You will find when you start looking for your dog they come in the toy size, which is the smallest, the miniature, which is a little larger, and the standard Goldendoodle, which is a medium-sized dog. 

They are Friendly

The Goldendoodle is known to be a friendly dog and gets along well with kids, other dogs, cats, and more. If you take your dog to a dog park, they love to interact with the other animals there. This is why they do great if you need to take your dog to a day camp. 

These dogs generally do not bark when someone knocks on your door, so they do not make a good watchdog. There are some Goldendoodles that would rather have quiet at home. It all depends on their personality, and you can determine this after living with your new dog as it grows.
