Conclusion Getting Prepared The labradoodle varies widely in hair type and color , so the colors used will vary too. It might be helpful to gather several colors to choose from before starting. Pick different shades of brown, red, green, and neutral tones, such as cream. Also, pick a black color for outlining and adding depth. Step 1 The first step is to draw some basic guidelines for the body. Start by drawing a circle for the head, then connect a rounded bean shape to the circle for the body. Space the eyes and draw the head. Step 2 Now draw the eyes. They should be higher up on the head and somewhat far apart. Sketch them in a sideways teardrop shape with short hair arranged around the eyes and toward the side of the head. The eyes should be somewhat dark with small pupils. Step 3 Continue with the nose. Draw the fur on the snout by starting with short hairs on the top and then gradually making them longer as they flow down the sides. Also, draw the strands of hair into a point. The nose should be symmetrical — but not the snout hair! A tongue out pose allows a splash of color. Step 4 Time to move on to the mouth. The mouth will be open, so start by drawing the tongue from the edge of the fur by the snout. The tongue should be covering most of the teeth with a bump on each side. Then draw a thin bottom lip below the tongue. Next, draw thick medium-length hair surrounding the mouth and jaw area. Step 5 Shape the head by drawing the fur between the middle of the eyes and flowing up and out to the sides of the face, getting longer the further away from the face. Ears longer than the snout — for Labradoodles and Cockapoos. Step 6 Draw the ears now and have them flopping behind slightly like he is running. Step 7 Draw a collar with a tag for a little extra personality. For the collar, draw a half-circle around the neck, add the little ring, and attach a tag. The tag can be a standard oval, or you can personalize it and make it any shape you want. This drawing is based on a photograph on my Labradoodle Max Step 8 Now move on to the body. Start with the front right leg by drawing straight lines from the body, with the paw slightly facing the viewer. Step 9 Draw the left leg now by going out towards the viewer and then drawing the paw drooping down. You will not see the paw because the fur will cover it. Details like toys or collars can add a splash of color. Step 10 Move on to the back and chest now. Connect the legs by a line with hair that will be the chest. Now, draw lines extending from the neck and the left leg outwards. That will be the back. Add fur to contour the body. Step 11 Draw the left hind leg connecting from the back and left front paw, angled toward the viewer and straight. There should be no detail on the paw as the fur will also cover it. Practice drawing wavy hair, it is a mainstay of Doodle dog drawing. Step 12 Only a tiny section of the right hind leg will be visible. Draw it out from the middle of the left back leg and have it curved down and around until it connects slightly higher up from the left hind paw. Add fur. Step 13 Now for the tail! Draw it out from the back and slightly to the side of the body to add movement to the picture. The tail should be covered in long strands of hair that appear to blow in the wind. Lots of brown… use lighter colors to highlight even if your own Labradoodle has a coat that is not light. Use black paint around the inner ears, mouth, nose, neck, chest, and right front paw. It will add shadows to the painting and give it more depth and realness. Step 15 Paint the rest of the drawing in your preferred labradoodle colors! Allow to dry completely before hanging up or framing. Our step-by-step guide on how to draw a Labradoodle! About Labradoodles The labradoodle is a cross between a labrador retriever and a poodle. It is a very intelligent and friendly dog. These adorable pups are affectionate, loyal, and playful. The perfect kind of dog to bring to life through art! The labradoodle coat ranges from four to six inches of straight to loose curls. Their color also varies widely and can come in several shades, from chocolate to cream to red. Most labradoodles have dark hazel to brown eye color. The colors you choose will be up to you. You can look at images of labradoodles for inspiration or if you have one for a pet, use them as your muse. Conclusion This easy step-by-step guide can make anyone a beginner artist, but most importantly, it will give you the information you need to create a work of art for your favorite furry friend! You can even make this activity into a fun night with friends and see who can come up with the best creation. Labradoodles can potentially have one of several different fur types. For starters, the color of their fur can be anything, from black, to white, to brown, or anything in between. Their fur can be short and fluffy, long and straight, or coarse and wirey. Labradoodles are hybrid animals, bread from standard Poodles and Labradors. They were bread as allergen-free guide dogs, and over time they became great family dogs. Here is a Poodle and a Labrador. Combine them and you get a Labradoodle! Step 3. Labradoodle puppies are adorable! Their fur is not very long when they are young, but it lengthens as they grow. The closely resemble Labrador puppies at this early age, but with wavy fur. Step 4. Here's a quick demonstration on how to draw their paws. First sketch in some basic guide lines. The figure on the far left will be the underside of the paw, the middle figure is the side of the front paw, and the figure on the right is the side of the hind paw. As you can see, the front paws of a dog have a large pad on the bottom with 4 smaller pads as toes. Each pad has a claw sticking out of the top. There is also a dew claw on the side of the paw and an additional pad on the back of the leg. The hind legs do not have dew claws of the fifth pad. Labradoodles have a lot of lengthy fur which tends to cover up parts of the pads and claws. From certain angles, you cannot see the pads or paws at all because of the excessive fur. Step 7. To draw a Labradoodle, we should first sketch in some basic guide lines. Use a 2H or harder pencil and draw very lightly so that the lines are easy to erase after we ink. Draw a circle for the head connected to a bean shape for the body. The dog will be running in our general direction. Start with the eyes. They should rest a little high on the head and be far apart. At this time, they will appear almost too far apart, but they will look more proportionate later on. The eyes should be teardrop shaped, but sideways. They should be very dark and surrounded by thin hair that comb around the eyes and towards the sides of the face. Next, draw the snout and nose. The nose is the shape of a bloated upside-down triangle. It has two small nostril opening and a thin slit in the middle. The fur on the snout should be short on the top and longer on the sides. It should be blowing in the wind somewhat and the strands should cluster together into points. Draw the lower jaw and mouth. The mouth should be open so the chin should hang well below the circular guide line. The tongue should be hanging out slightly, covering most of the teeth. Keep in mind that the lower canine teeth will cause the tongue to rise up as it falls on top of them, creating humps on either side of the end of the tongue. There should be a thin lip along the edge of the mouth. The fur of the lower jaw should be thick, but not too long. Now draw the shape of the head. Notice how the fur starts in the middle of the eyes and combs back evenly in all directions. The fur gets longer as it get further away from the face. Step .The ears should be large and flapping in the wind as the dog runs. Be sure to draw the underside of the ears, but since there is so much long hair on the ears, we should not be able to see details of the inner ears. To give more character to the illustration, give the dog a collar and tag. We should only be able to see a small portion of the collar at this angle, but it should wrap around the neck creating a partial circle shape. The dog tag can be any shape you wish, be it a bone, fire hydrant, oval, or in this case a circle. It should be attached to the collar by a metal ring. Let's move down to the body. Draw the right leg very straight and pointing towards us slightly. We should be able to see the pads of the foot as the dog takes a step forward. The fur on the legs should be pointing downwards and be thinner on the back of the leg. Don't forget to draw the tips of the claws sticking through the fur a little bit. The left leg should be bent upwards and the paw should be dangling down. The top of the paw will be covered with hair so that we cannot see and details of the paw. Next, draw the back and chest of the dog. The back should have plenty of hair strands combed over one another, but we should only be able to see a small portion of the dog's chest since the left leg is raised so high. The fur on the chest should loosely hang down. Also draw lots of strands of hair on the side of the dog's body that are blown back in the wind. The left hind leg should be very straight and pointing towards us as it is planted firmly in the ground. It should be almost parallel to the front right leg. Again, the paw will be covered in fur and we won't be able to see details. The upper portion of the leg should be hidden from view behind the left front leg. We should only be able to see a small portion of the right hind leg. The paw and lower half of the leg should be visible behind the left hind leg. The paw should be higher up than the left paw at this angle. Finally, draw the end of the tail behind the dog. It can be pointing in pretty much any direction you wish, since dog tails move freely as they run. Just be sure to draw it covered with many long strands of hair that blow in the wind. We can now ink our image! Use either a brush and ink or Micron markers. A brush works best since you can feather the fur and easily create fine tips that gradually get thicker as they near the body of the dog. Be patient and be careful not to erase any unneeded guide lines. When the ink has dried, erase the pencil marks with a kneaded eraser. You can add a greater sense of depth to the image by giving it a little shadow. Our dog is light colored, so don't add too many heavy shadows. Again, a brush works great for feathering the dark to light. Add shadow to the underside of the ears, the side of the nose, the inside of the mouth, the underside of the head, and underneath the chest. Also black out the pads of the paws. And that's pretty much it! If you need to make corrections, you can use white ink or opaque white paint. You can also use it to add more highlights to the fur if needed. That's how you draw a Labradoodle! Good job!

The puppies featured in the Puppy Bowl are from shelters. The production occurred in the New York City area in the fall of , using 47 puppies, [3] [6] while the show featured 58 puppies. A staff of 49 Animal Planet employees and 48 volunteers wrangled the animals, with each puppy assigned a single human overseer. Another 25 kittens were used for the half-time show. Sixty personnel were needed for shooting. Although there is no minimum or maximum limit on how many toys may be in the stadium, show producers say that toys which make the loudest noise or which are sausage-shaped get the most attention. Toys are usually switched out every 20 minutes, and often more frequently. Format[ edit ] The Puppy Bowl consists of a number of puppies playing in a model stadium "GEICO Stadium" with no audience but with canned audience cheering , minimal commentary, and instant replay shots. A "bowl cam" provides shots upwards through the transparent bottom of a special water bowl built into the stadium floor, with a wide-angle lens that allows viewers to watch the puppies drink water and walk through it up close. These numbers include the hidden cameras in the water bowl and toys. Beginning in , it was Animal Planet associate producer Andrew Schechter. When a puppy drags one of the football-shaped toys into the end zone, a "puppy touchdown" is declared. In Puppy Bowl IX, there was a double-touchdown, as puppies with toys raced into each end zone simultaneously. Timeouts are called if the water bowl needs to be refilled, or if the puppies begin to fight a behavior called "unnecessary rrruff-ness". Unique "penalties" called may also include howling, illegal bathing playing in the water bowl , napping on the field, premature watering of the lawn urination , [1] "excessive fertilization" defecation , "neutral bone infraction" neutral zone infraction , and "ineligible retriever downfield" ineligible receiver downfield. The running time of Puppy Bowl V was decreased to minutes including commercials. Jessie Dinh, producer at Discovery Studios, explained the reason for the decrease: "We only did two hours this year so that we had the opportunity to include some other fun elements. Puppies were divided into two teams, Teams "Ruff" and "Fluff", each identifiable by a different colored bandana worn throughout the event. Points were tallied on a scoreboard powered by a hamster running on a wheel. The team with the most points was declared the victor. Most Valuable Puppy Marshall scored a double touchdown. This features kittens playing for 30 minutes with lights , laser pointers , balls of yarn , a scratching post , flint sweepers, and a wide variety of other toys. Puppy Bowl III did not show the cats' departure from the field. The halftime show of Puppy Bowl IV in was only 15 minutes in length. This does not usually work, however, and catnip is distributed over the set to help the kittens be more active and interested in their surroundings. Shots of the puppies at play were green-screened into the windows to make it appear as if the "blimp" was actually hovering over the field. Inside the model of the blimp's control room, hamsters are allowed to play as if they were the crew of the blimp. Beginning in , "bunny cheerleaders" rabbits were shown, as if these animals were on the sidelines. In , the "bunny cheerleaders" were replaced by "chicken cheerleaders" hens and roosters. The "Kiss Cam" returned from through .The tutus, however, did not stay on the animals. A new feature in the game is the "Cute Cam," the slow-mo camera. Additionally, the human "stars" of Animal Planet's reality TV shows were added in as commentators. Another addition is a "special puppy hot tub" a large pan of water in which puppies will relax prior to or after their time on the field. The "experience" included a 15, square feet 1, m2 area where people could play with puppies, a recreation of the Puppy Bowl set, and advertising sponsor areas. A total of 33 shelters from 18 states and the territory of Puerto Rico supplied shelter animals dogs, cats, hamsters, etc. Puppies were divided for the first time into teams, and a hamster-powered scoreboard kept score. Animals with substantial followings on Instagram had images submitted, showing their support for each team as well. Local animal shelters and rescue groups partnered with Animal Planet on these events, during which thousands of animals were adopted. Silkie chickens served as cheerleaders, and a skunk helped referee the show. Puppy Bowl results[ edit ]. Pugs are vetted and some need rehab until placed in forever homes. HELP for a Pug?

Pug Dog Breed — All You Need to Know The pug dog was originally bred to be a lap dog and the pooch does very well with human companionship. This breed of dog has an incredible sense of humor that is they are sometimes referred to as the clowns of the dog world. Pugs can happily thrive anywhere whether, in the city or in the country. They can happily live as a pack of other dogs or alone. Pug owners swear by their dogs and consider them the best house dogs. Pugs, however, do not thrive in very hot or very cold conditions. Pug Dogs What some call ugly others might call irresistably cute! The Pug has turned in to one of the most popular dogs in the United States, find out more about this lovable breed. Pugs come in different colors such as silver with a black face mask or apricot-fawn with a black muzzle. They can also come as all black. The expressions that a pug dog can have include curiosity, happiness, surprise, and others. All of these expressions make the pug dog a very adorable and lovable dog. According to the legend, a pug with these markings carried good fortune. Pugs also love attention and they become heartsick if they are ignored. The ears of a pug are black and very smooth with a velvety feel. The pug also has a very tightly curled tail. Pugs are also known to have a double coat and they also shed profusely Due to their profuse shedding, you should invest in an excellent vacuum cleaner and a great dog brush. They are also very susceptible to becoming obese thus a pug owner should ensure that they have a balanced diet approved by a vet, and they should not be overfed with snacks. Some people tend to think that pugs do not bark since they are very silent but the truth is that they do bark. However, their barking is not as loud as barks from other dogs. They are also very playful dogs, loyal and affectionate. Short history of the pug dog breed Pugs originally came from China, dating back from the Han dynasty. They were prized by the emperors and led very luxurious lifestyles. Some were even guarded by soldiers. Pug dogs are believed to be one of the three short-nosed dogs bred by the Chinese. These three dogs included the Lo-sze, the Lion dog and the Pekingese. In time, the Chinese began to trade the pugs to the European countries and soon, the pugs became the favorite dogs of the royal households. As the pugs were quickly spreading in Europe, they were given different names. Pugs can thrive well on any quality dog food. They can be fed on manufactured foods as well as well made homemade food that has been approved by the veterinarian. Also, during training Pugs will train very well alongside dog treats, however, you need to be mindful not to overfeed treats. In addition, clean fresh water should be available at all times for the pug to drink. The recommended amount of food that a pug eats will depend on their weight, activity level and vet recommendations. Pugs and other dog breeds are individuals just like us and so there is no universal amount of food that a pug should eat in a day. A highly and young active dog will need more food per day than a senior pug that is not that active. However, if you have to reduce the shedding, regular brushing of the coat would help. Due to their small size, grooming the pug is so much easier than grooming a larger dog breeds. It is also very advisable to do regular nail trimming on a pug since they do not wear down the nails easily as outdoor dogs do. Pugs ears also need regular grooming to ensure that they are clean at all times. The wrinkles are prone to hiding infections and pests. Ensure you regularly clean the folds. Health of the Pug dog breed Pugs are generally healthy but like all animals, they are prone to various diseases. The eyes are a center of attraction, however, due to their flat faces and no nose they can easily injure their eyes or contract different eye infections.

With their signature bat ears and expressive eyes, French Bulldogs, or "Frenchies" as they are lovingly known, have captured the hearts of many dog lovers around the globe, consistently ranking among the most popular breeds. Renowned for their easy maintenance and the ability to thrive in apartment living, French Bulldogs are a city dweller's delight. Their small size, typically weighing under 28 pounds, makes them perfectly suited to compact urban spaces. However, their charming personalities and heartwarming companionship are universally loved, irrespective of city or countryside living. This breed's laid-back nature does not mean they're devoid of fun and play. On the contrary, French Bulldogs can be quite playful and are known for their often comical and entertaining antics, which only further endears them to their owners. Their affectionate demeanor, combined with a remarkably low barking tendency, makes them a joy to have around the house. French Bulldogs are sturdy, compact, and stocky, with a powerful muscular build that contradicts their small size. They have a smooth coat that comes in a variety of colors, from fawn and brindle to white and grey. Their facial expressions are human-like, and they're known to "talk" using a complex system of yawns, yips, and gargles. However, owning a French Bulldog does come with responsibilities. Their brachycephalic short-nosed nature makes them prone to certain health issues and less tolerant of extreme temperatures. Despite their muscular appearance, they are not the best swimmers, and care should be taken around bodies of water. We take responsible breeding very seriously.

I found the puppy of my dreams on his website and I texted Daniel if I would be able to see her when she was just 3 weeks old. Daniel allowed me to come to his facility the next day to meet her. His facility was spotless and all of the puppies including the parents were well taken care of. I was very happy to have been able to meet both the mom and dad of the puppy that I bought. From the minute I brought Poppy home she adjusted very well with our other two dogs. You could tell that the puppies were very well socialized and handled well at a young age. The day I picked Poppy up, Daniel gave me a little goody bag with some of her dog food, a toy and her entire record of vaccines that she has already been given. I took Poppy to the vet the very next day after purchasing her, and she had a clean bill of health. Another thing I loved about Daniel is that he would send me weekly updates and pictures of her growth! Overall, I would highly recommend anyone that is looking for an adorable and healthy Frenchie to start their search at Vibrant French Bulls with Daniel. Reggie was our first puppy who we immediately fell in love with and could not be happier with. Reggie is so well behaved and loves to be around other people. We reached out to Daniel when Reggie was only about a month old. We immediately felt comfortable and quickly decided to make Reggie a part of our home. Leading up to us meeting Reggie for the first time a few months out Daniel was incredibly informative and would always keep us in the loop about how Reggie was doing.

What Makes the Goldendoodle Chocolate? The Chocolate Goldendoodle gets its unique color from its parent breeds, the Poodle and the Golden Retriever. Both breeds come in various colors , including chocolate, and when they are bred together, their offspring can inherit a chocolate-colored coat. The genetics behind coat color in dogs is complex , and it is determined by multiple genes. In the case of the Chocolate Goldendoodle, the Poodle parent may contribute the chocolate gene, while the Golden Retriever parent may carry a gene that dilutes the color to a lighter shade. It is worth noting that while the chocolate color is highly sought after in Goldendoodles, it is not a rare color in either Poodles or Golden Retrievers. However, the combination of the two breeds and their various coat colors can produce a unique and beautiful chocolate coat in the Goldendoodle. Overall, the chocolate color is just one of the many things that make the Goldendoodle such a desirable and beloved breed. Their playful, affectionate, and intelligent personalities, combined with their charming appearance, have made them a popular choice for dog lovers everywhere. Are Chocolate Goldendoodles Rare? While the chocolate color is highly sought after in Goldendoodles, Chocolate Goldendoodles are not considered a rare breed. This is because the color is not exclusive to the Goldendoodle and can be found in other breeds, such as the Poodle and the Golden Retriever. However, it is worth noting that not all Goldendoodles come in the chocolate color. Goldendoodles can come in a variety of coat colors, including cream, black, red , and apricot, among others. The color of a Goldendoodle's coat will depend on the genetics of its parent breeds and the specific breeding practices of the breeder. When searching for a Chocolate Goldendoodle, it is important to do your research and find a reputable breeder who follows ethical breeding practices. A responsible breeder will prioritize the health and well-being of their dogs and work to produce puppies with desirable traits, including a chocolate-colored coat. While Chocolate Goldendoodles are not considered rare, they are still a highly sought-after breed due to their unique and charming appearance, as well as their friendly and lovable personalities. Understanding the Coat Types of Chocolate Goldendoodles The coat of a Chocolate Goldendoodle can vary depending on the genetics of its parent breeds, making it challenging to predict exactly what kind of coat a puppy will have. However, understanding the different coat types of Poodles and Golden Retrievers can give you a good idea of what to expect from your Chocolate Goldendoodle's coat. Poodle coats come in a variety of textures, including curly, wavy, and straight. They also come in different densities, from thick and fluffy to fine and silky. Poodles can have a single coat or a double coat, with the latter being more common in smaller Poodle breeds. Double-coated Poodles have a dense, soft undercoat and a topcoat that is coarser and curly. Golden Retriever coats are typically straight or wavy and have a dense, water-repellent undercoat. Their topcoat is longer and can be either flat or slightly wavy. Golden Retrievers shed seasonally, so you can expect some level of shedding from your Chocolate Goldendoodle, especially during shedding season. When a Poodle and a Golden Retriever are bred, their offspring can inherit any combination of these coat types. Chocolate Goldendoodles can have a straight, wavy, or curly coat, and it can be dense or silky, depending on the specific genetics of the parents. Some Chocolate Goldendoodles will have a single coat, while others will have a double coat. Chocolate Goldendoodle Coat Types Straight Chocolate Coat The Straight Coat is a low-maintenance coat type that is ideal for people who prefer a simple grooming routine. This type of coat is usually straight or slightly wavy, with a soft and smooth texture. The coat may be shorter than other coat types, making it less prone to matting and tangling. Straight Chocolate Goldendoodles do shed, but they require minimal grooming, such as brushing once or twice a week, and occasional trimming to maintain the coat's length and shape. This coat is usually tight and springy, with a soft and plush texture. Curly Chocolate Goldendoodles are typically low-shedding and hypoallergenic, making them a great option for people with allergies. However, the tight curls require regular grooming, including frequent brushing and clipping to prevent matting and tangling. Professional grooming every weeks is recommended for this coat type. Shaggy or Wavy Chocolate Coat The Shaggy or Wavy Chocolate Coat is a beautiful and low-maintenance coat type that is a cross between the straight and curly coat types. This type of coat is usually longer than the straight coat and has a gentle wave or loose curl. The coat may have a shaggy appearance, especially around the ears and face, adding to its charming appearance. This coat type requires moderate grooming, such as regular brushing and occasional trimming to keep the coat from matting or tangling. Shaggy or Wavy Chocolate Goldendoodles are low-shedding but may require professional grooming every weeks. It is not uncommon for Chocolate Goldendoodles to change color as they grow older. This change in color is a natural part of the dog's aging process and is caused by several factors, including genetics, sun exposure, and the environment. One of the main reasons for the change in color is due to genetics. The genes responsible for coat color can be turned on and off throughout a dog's life, leading to changes in color over time. Additionally, certain coat colors can be dominant over others, which can affect how a dog's coat develops as they grow. Sun exposure can also play a role in changing the color of a Chocolate Goldendoodle's coat. Just like human hair, a dog's coat can lighten or darken due to sun exposure. Exposure to sunlight can bleach the coat, causing it to become lighter, or darken the coat, leading to a more vibrant color. Finally, the environment can also impact a Chocolate Goldendoodle's coat color. Exposure to certain chemicals or pollutants in the air or water can affect the coat's texture and color, leading to changes in the dog's appearance over time. Chocolate Goldendoodle Temperament Chocolate Goldendoodles are known for their friendly, playful, and affectionate temperament. They are a hybrid dog breed that is a cross between a Poodle and a Golden Retriever, two breeds that are both renowned for their excellent temperaments. Chocolate Goldendoodles are highly intelligent and eager to please, making them easy to train and quick learners. They are social animals that thrive on human interaction and love being around their owners and other pets. This makes them ideal family pets and excellent companions for children. In addition to their friendly and outgoing personality, Chocolate Goldendoodles are also known for their calm and gentle nature. They have a laid-back attitude and are not usually aggressive, which makes them an excellent choice for families with young children or other pets. Another characteristic that sets Chocolate Goldendoodles apart is their adaptability. They are comfortable living in a variety of settings, from apartments to large homes, as long as they receive regular exercise and social interaction. They are also great travel companions and love going on adventures with their owners. They have a soft and curly chocolate brown coat that is low-shedding and hypoallergenic. Their coat can be straight, wavy, or curly, depending on the genetics of their parent breeds. Chocolate Goldendoodles have a sturdy and athletic build, with a height of inches and a weight of pounds, depending on their size and gender. They have expressive eyes and long ears that hang down to the side of their face. Chocolate Goldendoodle Size The size of a Chocolate Goldendoodle can vary depending on the size of its parent breeds and the specific breeding practices of the breeder. Generally, they can range in height from inches and can weigh anywhere between pounds, depending on their gender and size. Miniature Chocolate Goldendoodles can also be bred, which are smaller and weigh between pounds. It's important to note that size is not the only factor that determines a dog's exercise and activity needs. Chocolate Goldendoodles of all sizes require regular exercise and social interaction to maintain their health and well-being. Chocolate Goldendoodle Generations Chocolate Goldendoodles can come in different generations, depending on the generation of their Poodle and Golden Retriever parents. Here are some of the most common Chocolate Goldendoodle generations: F1 Goldendoodles : The F1 generation is the first cross between a purebred Poodle and a purebred Golden Retriever. F1b Goldendoodles are more likely to have a non-shedding coat and are often preferred by people with allergies.

While Chocolate Goldendoodles have a beautiful chocolate brown coat, they can also come in a variety of color variations.

Chocolate and Cream: This variation has a chocolate brown coat with cream-colored highlights.

Chocolate Goldendoodle Lifespan The lifespan of a Chocolate Goldendoodle is generally between years, depending on their health and the quality of care they receive. While they are generally healthy dogs, like all breeds, they are susceptible to certain health issues such as hip dysplasia, ear infections, and eye problems. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and routine veterinary care can help prevent and manage these issues, ultimately increasing the lifespan of your Chocolate Goldendoodle. With proper care and attention, a Chocolate Goldendoodle can provide years of love, companionship, and joy to their owners. Common Chocolate Goldendoodle Health Problems Chocolate Goldendoodles are generally a healthy breed, but like all dogs, they can be prone to certain health problems. Here are some of the most common health problems that can affect Chocolate Goldendoodles: Hip Dysplasia: This is a common condition that affects many large dog breeds, including the Golden Retriever and the Poodle. It occurs when the hip joint doesn't develop correctly, causing pain and stiffness. Ear Infections: Chocolate Goldendoodles can be prone to ear infections due to their long, floppy ears that can trap moisture and bacteria. Regular cleaning and proper grooming can help prevent ear infections. Eye Problems: Some Chocolate Goldendoodles may develop eye problems such as cataracts, glaucoma, or progressive retinal atrophy. Regular veterinary checkups and proper eye care can help prevent and manage these conditions. Skin Allergies: Chocolate Goldendoodles may be prone to skin allergies, which can cause itching, scratching, and skin irritation. Proper grooming, a healthy diet, and regular veterinary care can help prevent and manage skin allergies. Grooming Needs of the Chocolate Goldendoodle Chocolate Goldendoodles have a beautiful, curly coat that requires regular grooming to keep it healthy and free from mats and tangles. Their grooming needs will depend on the type of coat they have, but in general, they require regular brushing, bathing, and hair trimming. They should be brushed at least once a week to prevent matting and tangling, and they should be bathed every weeks. Professional grooming every weeks can help maintain the shape and length of their coat. In addition to coat grooming, Chocolate Goldendoodles also require regular nail trimming, teeth cleaning, and ear cleaning to maintain their overall health and hygiene. Is a Chocolate Goldendoodle Right for You? Deciding whether a Chocolate Goldendoodle is the right dog for you requires careful consideration of several factors. While they are friendly, affectionate, and intelligent dogs, they are also a high-energy breed that requires regular exercise and social interaction to maintain their health and well-being. Before getting a Chocolate Goldendoodle, ask yourself the following questions: Do I have enough time to devote to a dog, including regular exercise and grooming needs? Am I prepared to train and socialize a high-energy dog? Can I provide a safe and secure living environment for a dog, including appropriate fencing and space to run and play? Can I afford the cost of a dog, including food, veterinary care, and grooming? Does my lifestyle allow for a dog, including the ability to provide regular care and attention?

Generally, chocolate Goldendoodles are much like other Goldendoodle varieties, as they are also smart, friendly, and playful. For starters, the chocolate Goldendoodle is among the 13 Goldendoodles colors we have to date. Like the other colors of this mixed breed dog, chocolate Goldendoodles can come in patterns like sable, parti , merle , brindle, tuxedo, phantom, and abstract. However, since chocolate Goldendoodles are hybrid dogs, they are not recognized by the American Kennel Club AKC and other international purebred dog registries. This is why these beautifully-colored dogs cannot show off their coats and stunning looks in conformation shows organized by the AKC. The same is true with other Golden Retriever and Poodle mixes. Are Chocolate Goldendoodles Rare? Unfortunately, chocolate Goldendoodles are quite rare. The chocolate color is a recessive gene, which means both parents need to carry the chocolate color gene to produce a Goldendoodle. Producing a chocolate Goldendoodle can be quite difficult because Golden Retrievers do not have the chocolate gene. Thus, breeders need to breed a Poodle with a Goldendoodle that carries the gene. However, while it may take some time to find a breeder that produces this color, the chocolate Goldendoodle is not as rare as blue, gray, and silver Goldendoodles. Apart from their chocolate-colored coats, they possess the same traits and features that characterize Goldendoodles. On average, a standard Goldendoodle is a medium-sized dog that typically grows about 23 to 29 inches in height and weighs 60 to 85 pounds. However, do not be surprised to find Toy, Miniature, and medium-sized Goldendoodles. Their size will depend on what Poodle size variation was used in the breeding process. Chocolate Goldendoodles may also feature a soft-textured coat that can either be curly, wavy, or straight. Furthermore, these dogs have slightly elongated, well-built, and muscular bodies. Its face is characterized by long eyebrows, mustaches, and proportionate muzzles. Its oval eyes often come in dark brown or blue. As with any other mixed-breed dog, the appearance of chocolate Goldendoodles can vary widely depending on which parent has more dominant genes. However, it is best to personally verify the Poodle size used in breeding. In simpler terms, it is impossible to produce a chocolate Goldendoodle by randomly mating a Golden Retriever and a chocolate-colored Poodle. This is because Golden Retrievers do not have the recessive brown gene. That said, to produce a chocolate or brown Goldendoodle, breeders need to mate chocolate Poodles with Goldendoodles carrying the chocolate gene. The problem, however, is that not every Goldendoodle has the said gene. The generation of the Goldendoodle matters a lot to breeders who want to end up with a chocolate Goldendoodle. Do Chocolate Goldendoodles Stay Brown? Chocolate Goldendoodles change their coat color as they grow older. Their coat color may fade to silvery beige or light brown.

These dogs are so highly social that they are prone to developing separation anxiety when left alone. Given the right amount of attention, love, and care, a chocolate Goldendoodle will make a great addition to any family. These natural charmers will surely please you with their natural humor and wit.

Labrador Retriever Stages of Development Labrador Retriever Stages of Development If you are new to the Labrador Retriever world and you have a new puppy, you may be wondering when Lab puppies finally calm down. First, for those that do not know, the Labrador Retriever breed is not for those that want to lay back on the couch and toss back a few beers. Labs are people dogs meaning that they are very sociable and do not like to be left on their own all the time. They have a great deal of enthusiasm and energy. That is why it is important for this breed to get plenty of exercise and social interaction. We did a lot of research about the breed and found that many people have their own ideas on the age of maturation. In all honesty, there are differing levels of energy that the Lab will go through during its life and from the age of about 10 weeks old to 5 years old, the energy level can remain quite high. Stage 2: Toddler — This stage starts around weeks old and goes until about 5 months old. The energy level is quite high at this time as the puppy is learning all it can about the world and go through many biological changes. It tests its environment with its mouth and as it gets towards the end of this stage, it begins to chew on everything it can to try and get relief from teething. It is usually to have some terry cloth towels that have been soaked in water and sitting in your freezer, waiting to be gnawed on! Stage 3: Adolescent — This is a tough stage and starts around 5 months old and go anywhere up to a year, depending on the dog. Some would call it the terrible twos because all of a sudden, your sweet Lab baby has forgotten everything you have taught it and has the manners of any human teenager out there! Sure, they know not to go on the couch but they will test you again and make sure you meant it. This is when you need to reinforce all your training because if you let them get away with it now, it is harder to break them of it later! Stage 4: Maturing — Usually this starts around a year old and goes until the 5-year old stage. The level of energy is still high and is equal to a college student or young twenty-something adult. They get more comfortable with their surroundings and take a little more time to enjoy life and the company of their owner and family. This is more of an enjoyable time with your family Lab! Stage 5: Senior — Around 5 years and up, the little puppy you once knew with all the energy level of an energizer bunny is there in spirit but the body is slowing down more. They still have a good amount of energy but nothing compared o stages 2 and 3! Life is good and comfortable. So, when does a Lab puppy start to calm down? Well, generally it is around stage 4 but can happen before that stage. The one thing people with Labrador Retrievers, or any dog for that matter, need to understand is that each dog is different. Yes, there are certain traits in the Lab breed for which we eagerly welcomed them into our home, but just as human identical twins can have opposite personalities, so can your Labrador Retriever. For example, if you are in stage 2, there is housebreaking and teething to deal with. Your puppy also needs help with getting rid of some of that pent up energy it has and it is your responsibility to give it safe and structured ways to expel that energy. Short walks work well on soft surfaces for young pups as well as schedule play times. Whatever you choose to do, high energy levels in Labs are normal during certain stages — just remember to enjoy them while you can because your Lab will only be a puppy once. Post navigation.

Labs also change quite a bit, both mentally and physically from even birth to 8 weeks, which would be around the time you would bring your new puppy home. They are dependent on their mother for most things and although they have fur at birth, their mother keeps them warm because their internal thermostats have not begun to work yet. Their mother only lets them alone for bathroom trips and to eat and drink while the puppies huddle together for warmth. Two Weeks Newborn puppies cannot see or hear but by 2 weeks their ears and eyes should begin to open, allowing for hearing and sight. Handling should begin with the breeder for their first introduction to socialization. Puppies will receive their first worming. Three Weeks Puppies will begin teething as teeth come in and some solid food will be introduced gradually. Puppies can sit, stand, and trot about, a little unsteadily, at this time and even play with littermates, each developing their own personalities. Four Weeks Labrador puppies are becoming a lot more vocal and they are looking and acting more like dogs, wagging tails and playing with enthusiasm. Their mother who has kept everything clean until now is beginning to grow weary, so clean-up will now fall to the breeder. Puppies will receive their second worming. Mothers also teach pups not to bite so hard when feeding and playing. Six Weeks Worming will take place for the third time. Puppies are eating all solid food about six times a day and are totally weaned. Their mother still works with them in regards to biting and gives them a sharp bark, or reprimand, when they play too roughly with littermates. Seven Weeks Puppies will be socialized more, often with breeders beginning initial housebreaking. Usually, puppies will be checked out by a veterinarian before leaving their mother, brothers, and sisters for their new home at 8 weeks. Potty training and socialization should continue. Even though your pup was checked out by a veterinarian, you will need to make an appointment to begin the necessary vaccinations. Before bringing your new puppy home, make sure you have all of the necessary supplies for the pup such as bed, blanket, crate, toys, dishes, food, treats, collar, and leash. Keep in mind that this is the first time puppy has been away from their mother, littermates, and their familiar home. Have patience and give them reassurance and love. They may cry or be shy or fearful until they feel comfortable in their new home. Nine Weeks Your Labrador puppy should feel more familiar with its surroundings.

Take them to as many places as you can so they can see situations as an adventure, not something to be feared. Ten Weeks Your puppy will need more vaccinations and their veterinarian will check them out and their weight to ensure that they are growing properly. Keep working on socialization.

Five Months Your puppy may be totally housebroken by this time and able to be left alone a little longer without accidents. Some pups take a little longer just as children may for potty training. They are beginning to be stronger and when they become too weighty, pulling on the leash will be a chore if not properly trained. Six Months Between 4 and 6 months your pup may try to challenge you or other family members. You and others must be the dominant forces in the family. Your pup is also looking more like a dog, but keep in mind, they are still a puppy at heart. Meals can now be reduced to two times a day.

Keep in mind that just as humans are individuals, so too are dogs and some may be full-grown at a certain age, while others may add a few more pounds after this time. Their full height, however, will be reached by nine months of age. A full-grown Lab will range in weight from 55lbs — 75lbs for females and 64lbs — 85lbs for males. Your Labrador retriever may grow to be large or be a smaller version. This helps to ease your mind. Enjoy every moment with your Labrador puppy as they grow through the stages. Recent Posts. Labradors go through different stages of development, which are easy to identify with a trained eye. These growth stages — newborn, juvenile, adolescence, and adulthood — all come with marked periods of development. You may notice that your dog looks lanky or slimmer during the latter half of this period. During adolescence, they will complete skeletal growth. They will then begin to fill out until they reach their full adult weight and height. As your Labrador Retriever enters adulthood, you will notice a slow in physical growth and weight gain, as well as a calmer demeanor. Labs officially reach their final size around a year to 18 months considering all the different growth stages. Labs are a highly active breed that requires training, plenty of exercise, and a balanced diet. This helps prevent problems with weight gain, which can lead to more dangerous health conditions as your dog continues to age. As puppies pass adolescence and settle into adulthood around two years of age, Labs start to calm. Another sign that your dog has stopped growing. What Factors Contribute to a Labs Growth? An average male Lab will stand around inches and weigh roughly pounds. Female Labradors will grow to inches and pounds, respectively. Several factors can affect how large a Lab can be. Many of them are related to elements controlled by the owner rather than the dog. Food and Nutrition As with any pet, healthy food and nutrition are essential to ensure that your Lab grows appropriately. A balanced diet for a Labrador Retriever is a must. Ensure your pup gets the right amount of fats, nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. All these aids in a healthy growth curve for your dog. It may be tempting to feed a hungry dog, but overfeeding your Lab can cause problems in their early development. When you give your young Lab too much food, you may encourage excessive growth that can be taxing on their skeletal structure. When bones grow too fast, it leads to orthopedic issues in the breed further down the line. Related: Spaying and Neutering Spaying and neutering can have one of the largest impacts on the optimal growth of your Lab. The extended period of growth is due to the interference of estrogen and testosterone levels. This can result in a bigger dog and lead to health issues. Long bone growth and delayed joint development can cause many orthopedic issues in the breed. The main contributor to health problems is hip dysplasia. Just be aware of the timing and delay operations until crucial skeletal development is complete. General Health and Genes The final and most significant factor in determining the size of your fully-grown Labrador is a general health and genetic history of your dog. If you purchased your puppy from a lineage of larger Labs, you could assume your pup will be slightly larger than an average-sized adult dog. The same can be said for Labs will family lines that veer towards smaller percentiles. Overall, what is most important to consider in the growth of your Labrador Retriever is that they have a balanced diet and get plenty of exercise. A healthy, well-attended puppy will inevitably lead to a well-developed adult dog. Also See:. Save to Pinterest The Stages of Puppy Growth and Development Month by Month The following are the stages of puppy growth and development, starting at birth and ending when your dog reaches adulthood. The Neonatal Stage 0 to 2 weeks This is the newborn puppy growth stage that lasts until two weeks of age. At this developmental stage, puppies are blind and deaf. Expect puppies at this point to sleep almost constantly and their mother will take care of everything, keeping them warm, feeding them, and keeping them clean. The Transitional Stage 2 to 4 weeks At this puppy growth stage , they will start to open up their eyes and respond to sounds, light, and movement around them. You will also notice a puppy at this point starting to get more mobile, although they will still tend to crawl instead of walking. They do, however, have enough strength to stand up, but will stumble a lot. A puppy in this developmental stage will just be starting to recognize their siblings and mother. Lab puppies open their eyes at about two weeks old. By this time, Labrador puppies will have their eyes fully open and most will be at least partly open. Ears open at this point too and your puppy will begin to hear. Period of Awakening of Senses 3 to 4 weeks At this period , a puppy develops various senses rapidly. They start to get fully alert and aware of their environment and may recognize you and other humans that are frequently around. The Socialization Period 4 to 7 Weeks Once a puppy is around four weeks old, they start to learn the most important things in life-related to social development. They will learn to not bite all the time and how to interact with their siblings. Interactions with humans are especially important between five and seven weeks. This is also the time they will start to understand discipline thanks to their mother. She will start weaning her puppies and teaching them manners, like acknowledging she is in charge. As the owner, you can start introducing food to your puppy when they are around four weeks old. Start small and begin to give them more food as the mother continues to wean them. You should also continue handling the puppy every day. However, be sure not to separate them from their siblings or mother for over ten minutes each day, since this can lead to issues with training and socialization. Dogs who are separated too soon may also be nervous and more likely to bark and bite. During this period, let the mother dog take care of discipline; you should not correct the dog for mouthing or housebreaking mistakes until later in life. To help ease them through this process, avoid traumatic events, loud voices, or harsh discipline. You should also make sure your pooch has plenty of human contact during this stage. If you want, you can start leash training and even teach simple commands such as sit, down, stay and come. In terms of development, you will notice that your puppy can sleep through the whole night and starts to develop better control of its bowels and bladder. Most vets suggest that new outings should wait until they are fully vaccinated. We rub the Calmeroos Puppy Toy on littermates and mom to get their scent.

We recently put together a blog post on our sister site detailing what you can expect from an 8-week-old puppy. The Juvenile Stage 3 to 4 Months At this point in development, a puppy can be compared to a juvenile. They will be more independent and may ignore the basic commands that they know very well. If this happens, firmly and gently reinforce the commands and other training. You may also notice your pup starting to test your authority by play biting or similar actions. You can also redirect your dog to a toy that they can bite. Either can end up teaching your pooch that it is okay to fight with you and challenge your authority. The Ranking Period 3 to 6 Months When your puppy is between four and six months old, you should expect them to be somewhat bratty, showing more willfulness and independence. They are more likely to test your limits and may try to show dominance over children or other family members. If they fail to listen to you or come when called, it can be dangerous as it puts them at risk of injury when in public. It can also hurt future responses to you, making them less likely to listen. This is also when your dog will be teething, so give them toys like frozen dog Kong toys to relieve pressure and pain. Chewing behaviors will also start growing at this point so look for some safe chew toys to keep your dog entertained. This is when hormonal changes start to occur and is the ideal time to spay or neuter your pup. UC Davis published a study comparing the long-term health effects of neutering in Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers. Adolescence 6 to 18 Months After six months, your pup is already in the final stage of puppy development but is still young. This is a fun and exciting time for your pooch since they will be learning, full of energy, and exuberant. During this time, it is important to remember that even if your puppy now looks like a grown-up dog, they are still a puppy, at least in its mental capacity and emotional maturity. Work to slowly increase training and other activities. You can even work on advanced training such as agility or herding. Another option is to simply keep training them to ensure they interact in a non-aggressive and non-threatening way with other animals. It is also possible that your dog will go through another fearful period of time at some point after they reach six months. You can speed up the process with counter-conditioning and desensitization.

Almost Home Campaign Puppy Developmental Stages and Behaviour To have a well-adjusted and social dog, you need to ensure his needs are met during each phase of development. Building the foundation for a great dog starts with appropriate training at each stage of development and establishing appropriate guidelines so that that your puppy is properly integrated into the family. You will see many behaviour changes during the life stages of your pup. Knowing how to handle your pup through each developmental stage will help to shape your puppy into a lifelong family member. Puppy Developmental Stages The puppy development process covers five distinct stages. However, puppies grow through these stages at their own pace and these timelines can vary. Stage 1: Neonatal Period 0 — 2 weeks This is the first stage of puppy development and begins at birth. At this age, puppies only have the sense of taste and touch and rely totally on their mother. Stage 2: Transitional Period 2 — 4 weeks Sensory development continues with hearing and sense of smell. Puppy teeth start coming through and their eyes will begin to open. Puppies will interact with their litter mates, wag their tails, stand, walk a little and bark. It is vital to understand this stage as most puppies go home to their new parents between 7 — 12 weeks. During this period, changes start to occur rapidly. Between 3- 5 weeks puppies start to become aware of their surroundings and have the ability to develop a relationship with people This is the period where puppies get familiar with the day-to-day noises of a regular household such as TVs, vacuum cleaners, telephones, etc. At this age puppies are just learning to interact with each other and beginning to play. They are also learning their doggie social skills and exploring their ranking status within their pack. Their curiosity is developing, as are their biting skills. Nipping behaviours begin as they practice biting behaviour with their mother and litter mates. At the weeks stage, they will have full use of all their senses and will be ready to go home to their new owners. Bringing your pup home usually between weeks is right in the middle of his socialization period. Therefore, it is vital that you introduce your puppy to as many new dogs, people, objects and surroundings as you can. BUT, make sure you do so in a controlled manner and never put your puppy in a dangerous situation where they can be injured, scared or contract disease. This is a great period to begin crate training, for a variety of reasons. Puppies are old enough to start getting used to being left alone to avoid separation anxiety from developing and are capable of being house-trained. Even though your home is likely puppy proofed, it also saves your possessions. During this phase of development, puppies are developing their reactions to things much more consistently. They are also likely to focus more on different types of people and should be friendly and approachable to strangers. During this time they are also going to continue to practice their biting skills a whole lot more! It is important to learn how to manage this behaviour early on. You may also notice that they are more curious and will probably look to explore their environment more. Be prepared for this and keep your puppy close to you and leashed. Stage 4: Testing Period 3 — 6 months This is the time your puppy starts to test their boundaries within their world. They will test the limits with their owners and other animals. At this age many adult dogs will start to enforce manners. Problematic behaviours can begin to arise in this period. At this age your puppy is going to go through teething and chewing is a common side effect. Make sure he has plenty of chew sticks and toys. Use commercial sprays or gels that dissuade your puppy from chewing your belongings. Try soaking a cloth toy in chicken stock and freezing it if your puppy is experiencing pain while teething. Once frozen, this can be given to your puppy as a chew toy and will help to relieve sore gums. Puppies are usually finished teething by the age of 6 months when the upper fangs canines come in. Your cute little puppy is becoming a teenager and will start producing hormones which may result in changes in behaviour. Dogs go through adolescence much earlier than people; for small breeds, is can be as early as six months old while larger dogs starting at nine or 10 months of age. Adolescence in larger breed dogs continues until they are two or three years old with smaller dogs reaching maturity at about 18 months. Typically the larger the dog, the slower the development.
