The guy who created the Labradoodle says its his lifes regret, he intended to create a good guide dog and instead it exploded into an empire of backyard crooks and poorly bred dogs with severe temperment and health problems.
My Labradoodle is 12. She is a healthy girl and, the best dog I have ever had.
And a lot of people don't properly train them or treat them like work dogs. I can't count how many times doodles have destroyed blankets at work because of separation anxiety, who don't know basic commands such a sit, can and will knock you over and the owner won't discipline them even if you get knocked down.
@@karlhopkins713 Amazing, very happy for you. That wasn't remotely my point though.
All the doodles ive heard of, are bad and untrainable. And theyve owned dogs their whole life
@@empressofkingfishers8656 that speaks to more human stupidity and selfishness. The kind of person who will buy a designer dog purely for the clout of owning a designer dog will never train it correctly because it was always just an accessory to them.
Wally Conran, the man often credited with "inventing" the Labradoodle, has gone on record saying that he completely regrets introducing the mixed breed to the public. He had a client who wanted to get a seeing eye dog, but she was allergic to most dogs and was interested in finding out if they could breed a dog that didn't trigger her allergies. He bred a poodle with a Labrador kind of as a Hail Mary. They sent fur/dander samples of the puppies to her for allergy testing, and SOME of the littermates were deemed hypoallergic. One of those puppies was then trained to become her service dog. Conran initially wanted to get the Labradoodle officially recognized as a breed so that, with the proper testing and healthy breeding practices, more people with allergies (or that live with people with allergies) could have access to service dogs. He did not anticipate how far the narrative would spin out of control. What started as an earnest attempt to help people with disabilities snowballed into irresponsible breeders Frankensteining dog breeds together with no regard for anyone's health, people's or dogs'.
But why not just use a Poodle in the first place? They make great service dogs.
@@lilolmecj Exactly. And just suggest she get some allergy medication if she was that bent on getting a guide dog.
@@lilolmecj To be honest, I don't know.
@@victoriabeckfinat225 off topic, but we have a Chow Husky mix from an accidental breeding. He is the loveliest dog I have ever owned. His temperament is the best of both breeds, and he is beautiful. He is a bit neurotic from the Husky side, and very devoted to one person, my hubby, from the Chow side. If I had the time, maybe 20 years, and the resources I would be tempted to focus on a breeding program. But careless breeding will just cause heartache. My personal opinion regarding Labs and Golden Retrievers is they are over bred and over rated.
@@victoriabeckfinat225 Allergy meds only help so much, and in cases of severe allergies, they do basically nothing, or at least not enough.
Thank you for commenting about the "greeder" industry and telling people how good breeders make choices!
My family bred Border Collies for years. There was always at least a two year waiting list because we refused to breed indiscriminately. We didn't breed our bitch unless we found a stud who would enhance our line (it usually worked out that she was bred twice, starting at two years old and ending at six). We bred for both temperament -- a well-rounded Border Collie should be able to relax and be a pet after the work day is done, and good structure. This was before they ever became popular in the general population.
I appreciate this too. You get bashed by anyone these days just because you want a PURE BREED dog. I’ve never bred nor will I, however it is very important to me to have the most healthy dog I can locate with proof of bloodlines of health records. People are way too fast to judge others without having any knowledge to back up their claims. I truly feel bad for GREAT breeders that stay TRUE to the breed. After several years of both of my 15 & 17 year old Dachshunds passing, I decided I wanted to get another ❤. I searched breeders near by & could not find one that doesn’t breed the “Piebalds” dachshund. I do not want a piebald bc I have done my research & they carry recessive genes that lead to many health complications, such as blindness, deafness & the list goes on. So I still do not have a dachshund 😢 as I cannot afford the actual price across states & then to have it shipped. It’s extremely sad what has been allowed to happen to our dog breeds. This will destroy many breeds for generations to come.
@@krissiet4718 rescue organisations and shelters often have purebred dogs. True, you probably won't get proof of bloodlines, or a certification that they're completely free of inherited health problems. Cost wise, though, it might be a viable alternative.
@@krissiet4718 my family bred chow chows and we were so careful about everything but the second i say we bred dogs people blow up.
"agile athlete" as he air licks and stares off into space. No thoughts. Just floof.
I love him.
He’s been properly trained to be groomed another thing irresponsible breeders don’t explain to buyers.
FINALLY A BARBET BEING SHOWN SOMEWHERE🥺 My first dog was a barbet. She was so sweet and well-behaved and got me and my family through tough times. The only issue we ever had with her was her separation anxiety. She passed away at age 11. RIP Miisa🥺💜
RIP for your dog!
I’m sorry you had to deal with losing a pet
@@hyapar thank you🥺 it's been a while since she passed now so I am doing better now. We currently have a new pup in the family🥰
*Rip Misha*
I see from your profile picture you have a lovely new pet?! What a beauty!
So, so sorry for your loss. We were just there too...it's horrible. Much love your way.
My dog was raised in a puppy mill and bred with a poodle to make Cavapoos. They sold the puppies for over $1000, but my dog was malnourished and had almost no hair when she was rescued. She's the most amazing dog we've ever had, and I don't understand how anyone could mistreat her. The puppy mills don't ever have any real consequences for what they do, so it will continue to be a problem until they actually get punished.
Unfortunately, people will always turn a blind eye to stuff like this, like the Ukrain war or child sex trafficking.
We rescued a cocker who suffered a similar faith before being ceased at the border from the greeders who were smuggling her pregnant. We don’t know what state she was because the charity that helped her did an amazing job before she came to us, but she is very small for her breed and it’s taking a lot of work to make her come out of her shell. Now I’m judging everyone who has a cockapoo.
All I do is rescue and heal sick abdonded animals. Im constantly in shelters and put alot of my own money into all sorts of animals. Puppy mills/back yard breeders are out of control. And I see it everyday.
So does that mean you have an adorable Cavalier King Charles?
@@TheMormonSorceress literally no one is turning a “blind eye” to the ukraine war. it’s all over the news and donations have come pouring in.
It’s sad the “original” breeder feels guilt over how the breed has been handled, but he also has to understand that humans have a deep propensity to muck up anything they’re capable of.
And they should have known it was a terrible idea. At the time poodles were the ones backyard breeders were obsessed with so they we’re becoming known for health issues even though the breed is actually better as a guide dog than labs or goldens. Now labs, goodens, and poodle mixes are the issue. Labs and goldens for the over breeding and backyard breeding, doodles for the same reason, plus the added bonus that they are unpredictable and many impossible to groom. It’s not fair to the dogs at all :(
@@kimberly_erin yes its so sad wally conron only tried working with one poodle, decided he didnt rhink they could make good guide dogs, and peoduced over 30 lab poodle mix puppies, only 3 not setting off the client's husband's allergies, and inly 1 finished training. Poodles make amazing guide dogs, mine is so good at it, especially bc poodles are great at intelligent disobedience which is important for guide dogs to have
@@user-wy6mx1hr7e Exactly. I needed a dog that would think and decide if it thought I was telling it the right thing or not. I think it’s called intelligent disobedience?
I get confused and might tell her the wrong thing. Poodles like to think and assess a situation. So they are perfect for this. She keeps me from going the wrong way, walking into things, walking across a road when it isn’t safe. bringing me to a place to sit down before I realize that anything was wrong. Many times I will tell her to do something and she doesn’t do it. Sometimes it wasn’t safe, sometimes it was the wrong direction, many many times I forgot something like my phone, jacket, purse etc. I need a dog that thinks and has an opinion.
Poodles are big enough to do guide work and have the right temperament, the most incredible part is that they can be trained for any other type of service dog work as well. So people like me with multiple disabilities don’t have to have more than one service dog to cover all of the tasks I need them to do. Plus not shedding their fur everywhere is lovely 🎉
it’s not humans, it’s capitalism
I can remember in the 1970s when labradoodles, cockapoos, and any other poodle mix were Not designer dogs. They were the majority mixed breeds, "free to good homes" or for sale for $25 or less in the classified ads every day from spring to just before Christmas... No one ever thought of them as special enough to pay designer prices (they were special to those who loved them)
My first dog was a cockapoo when I was 9. The neighbors husband brought the puppy home and she did not want a dog, so he gave it to my family. She was a sweet, calm dog and we adored her.
My family fell for a greeder with our golden doodle. He was born with a defect in his leg, and eventually we had to amputate it. Luckily that seemed to be the only thing wrong with him, and he still lives a very happy life
I hope you reported them. Most people just get angry and walk away. Canada, USA, England, Australia all have legislations to deal with them. Problem is most people don't take the time to launch and follow through with a complaint.
Deformities happen, even with pure-bred dogs. Ask any vet...
I get what you mean about "greeders" over breeders. I'm a goat farmer and we have to follow the same standard of health, I can't imagine someone lying to an owner just for a quick buck and not worrying about what happens to the animal...
Having a farm and a puppy mill aren't the same thing.
@@CuntNuggets I guess even if not the same, they are at least similar in some way - both would require responsible owners/breeders of the locations/organizations to properly look after their animals, and to be responsible in every way possible.
You 'can't imagine...' ? I can. There are unscrupulous people all around and always have been. Wake up.
@@DougHinVA It's a figure of speech...
Gold Shaw Farms just got done with a video talking about a "greeder" they thought was a legit breeder. Ended up having to spay the puppy they got from the Greeder instead of using her as a potential mating partner for his dog (livestock guardians on his farm).
As a proud owner of female barbet I'm soooooo happy to see one of those wonderfull dogs here 🖤
greetings from Poland!
Hello dear how are you doing today
That is so true, it’s not everyday that we can watch videos about this amazing breed! 🤎
Hey Poland from U.S
I purchased a Golden doodle 10 years ago before they were trendy. It was a 3 hour drive to northern Ontario. Bailey was the last of his litter and came with a 3 year health guarantee. They also set me up with TLC pet food to make sure that he was being fed quality. I said goodbye to him last October, he was active, bouncy and happy right up to his last day. There will never be another dog like him, and I miss him dearly.
They were trendy 10 years ago.
Yep, for every puppy mill out there there’s the breeders who wants nothing more than the best for their granpupies. My family said goodbye to our beloved golden around five years ago. About a year later we began looking into getting a new dog, and I personally was strongly against getting another golden retriever because I feared like it would be like we were trying to replace our dog. That was until I met Weasley. We went to a suburban home to meet one of the best breeders I’ve ever seen. We got to meet the parents and puppies not once but twice before we took our big marshmallow home. They even had a rescue golden doodle. And the parents were absolutely gorgeous in only the way a well groomed and healthy active dog can be. They were English creams so they were a gorgeous Snow White with one litter of nine puppies all with different color coordinated colors. Both the parents and the puppies were clearly beloved family pets and certainly not money makers, though the puppies were pure bred so they cost an arm and a leg, but oh my gosh Weasley was worth every cent.
RIP to your Dog My Golden Doodle Brindle , Teddy Bear is going to be 11 Aug 7 and is slowing down a bit but we live on a Farm still chases Coy Wolves and he loves the Bunny Rabbits he Does hurt them , hope he is around for another 2 or 3 years ... hugs and Kisses to all Dogs ..
Sorry for your loss.
I lost my yellow lab 13 years ago and still miss him.
That dog wins best temperament. He was so calm and sweet. He's obviously well loved. I love the part where he was laying on the table, he looked so adorable. He's a credit to his owners and his breed.
I would hope a water dog does well getting a bath, obviously thats a blanket statement but I would hope lol
Absolutely agree with backyard breeders saying anything to sell a dog. I have a family member that breeds "doodles." She isn't actually sure that her poodle is 100% poodle... Or that the various other breeds she breeding it with are actually purebreds either. Yet she gets $2,000 EACH PUPPY. it's absolutely disgusting. Meanwhile purebred dogs at the shelter sell for $100 SMH
Yeah, not at my shelter puppy's go for $700- $1000 and young adults that are more likely to be adopted are $400- $600
Only the old less attractive dogs that have been there for month are $100-250
At this point $2000 standard for buying a puppy, regardless of where it came from. It's frustrating.
Could you report your family member to your local humane society?
@@shepherd9217 may I ask where you live?
@@happyfacefries ~25 mile away from Portland, OR.
If people cared about getting a purebred dog they'd have done enough research to go to reputable breeder that doesn't let you put their dogs in shelters, you have to return them to the breeder if u can't take of the dog anymore. People that get these dogs don't care about health or temperament, they just want looks and that's why they end up at backyard breeders. But if they just want looks, or they want to brag about getting a "purebred" for cheap, they should start at the shelter. Shelter dogs are cheap (usually, some are getting more expensive) and usually mixed anyway, so it's better than shelling out money for a dog that's gonna cost you loads in vet bills later down the line
Thank you for talking about unscrupulous breeders! My son bought an adorable pure-bred Rhodesian Ridgeback, with a secret. He had a megaesophagus. The poor little one didn't survive 24 hours. And it turns out the breeder knew the dog had this condition but hid it to get top dollar.
Please tell all the pedigree snobs in this comment section who are using doodles to argue that this is a mixedbreed-specific issue and breed standards somehow prevent this
@@rachelhallie7483 on
Current sheepadoodle owner here. We adopted him from a friend of mine who thought he would be a great companion for her kids. She didn't really understand how much time, training and exercise he would need. When she realized that he was not a good fit for her family, she asked me to take him, as I have acreage for him to run around, and the time to handle a working breed.
He's still really excitable and anxious, but much better behaved now than he was when I first got him. He's an absolute snuggle bug most of the time. We worked with a professional trainer to start, and consistent reinforcement of his training has done wonders at home. I'm still working on getting him more comfortable and better behaved with his groomer, and he's making progress. A little better each time.
I wouldn't trade him for anything, but I probably wouldn't get another doodle.
My Lola Banana is a $3500 designer Golden Doodle. Suffice to say, the people that bought her had no idea what they had got into and by the time I got her at 1 year she was beyond traumatized from what they did :( She also has so many health problems (hips, knees, enlarged heart etc). She is a beautiful giant muppet and every time someone remarks on how lovely and how they want one, you better believe I go off lol.
Thank you for educating people about the bad dog breeders, aka breeders, who don't care about the animals and the horrible people who buy the "designer dogs."
Thanks. I got an Aussiedoodle through a rescue to help another rescued Aussie with her fear issues. The doodle is as sweet-natured and goofy as I've ever seen. No fear, very ADHD with OCD issues, and the intelligence of a gnat. But everyone oohs & aahs over her looks, and miss noticing the incredibly smart , well behaved, and equally beautiful Aussie standing right next to her. Fortunately they run & play together constantly which helps them, and makes it easier to work with & train both of them.
I would NEVER recommend that someone get any type of doodle, on purpose.
@@CricketsBay That entire situation is awful....Dogs aren't fashion rather members of our families. Buying a dog for bragging rights is gross.
This channel is such a treat for us animal folks! We have three dogs & two cats and they all get along.
I have a labernese which is a lab crossed with a bernese mountain dog. He is a great dog and luckily got him from a reputable breeder. Every time I take him to the vet the doctors and nurses always say, thank god he's not a doodle, we can't stand those dogs lol.
Lol! I go off too. Like, nooo do not support puppy mills and backyard breeders! And the amount of irresponsible idiots wanting to breed their Frenchies and Pit Bulls...makes me want to tear my hair out!!!
I actually had heard of Barbets, cos I'd heard of them as an ancestor of or at least relative of the Poodle... and I'd also read somewhere that they were extinct, too, so this handsome specimen surprised me even more than you may have thought.
As I was doing some research into the history of the Barbet breed, I was surprised to see just how FEW Barbets there are. Apparently there are under 200 Barbet puppies born every year, mostly because the gene pool is so small and legitimate breeders are trying to avoid hip dysplasia issues (thus narrowing the pool of viable parents.)
Arguably, the breed did go extinct and is being reconstructed through the related poodles, Portuguese water dogs, and other generic barbet(wooly bearded) breeds.
@@QuantumWaltz if I'm not mistaken the same thing happened with Irish Wolfhounds
😊
@@QuantumWaltz This also happened with the Italian Greyhound breed after WWI. It was saved by a concentrated effort in the United States, and I am extremely grateful! I will always have at least two IGs in my home.
@@josharko111 How interesting. I literally saw an Irish Wolfhound walking in a grocery store the other day with his owner.
A couple years ago we got in contact with a German Shepherd “breeder” because we loved our first GSD so much, but when we went to go look at the pups, we drove into an Amish looking place, and inside was a malnourished mom with tons of puppies. We didn’t know any better, so bought a pup and brought her home. Later that night she was coughing and sneezing up blood, so we rushed her to the 24hr pet clinic. She had severe pneumonia and had to stay for a couple days. Since all the pups were outside like she was, we think the rest most likely died since she was the only one brought home
I lived in Lancaster, PA for years. Amish are notorious for running puppy mills and most locals avoid them.
Poor babies ( and momma)! 💔
Years ago we bought a pure bred Dalmatian. His champion blood lines died with him as all his siblings died from Parvo, (and we never bred him) about a week after we brought Marshall home with us. He lived happily and very spoiled for 11 years. Gosh he was such a good dog!
They treat their families horrible as well! So disturbing 😔
Amish treat their animals horribly.
I've been hoping you'd get a barbet client !! My sister has black one, she waited for years to get one thru a responsible breeder with genetic testing and paperwork. He was very difficult to train even with years of focus, attention and professional help.
BUT he is an absolute sweetheart with family, he's constantly in love and protect mode when my newborn is around. He is sad and anxious with her when she cries, it's so sweet to watch. Lots of work for lots of reward, this breed.
I got my white Doberman from a Doberman rescue when she was 8 months old. I had owned Dobermans in the past and knew I could provide her with the care she needed. Suffice to say, it is not easy. I put sunblock on her, limit her time in the sun, have her on a special half raw/half kibble diet, multi vitamins, etc. She also came with crippling anxiety and we have spent a few thousand dollars on professional training. She was worth every penny and worth the daily effort because she's my baby! But when strangers comment on how beautiful she is and how to get one I tell them the expenses and upkeep first before anything else. She's afraid of everything and we modified our lifestyle to better suit hers. (Limit strangers coming over, taking her to crowded places, no unscreened dog sitters, etc.)
She is a beautiful, healthy, happy "albino" Doberman and we love her to death! But please do your research when getting a pet who requires special lifelong treatment. Don't half ass their care due to ignorance. They may only live during a fraction of your life but you exist in the entirety of theirs
or just don't go searching for a damn albino doberman. those dogs were built for purpose. if you rescued it from a bad situation, good on you. if not, that's pretty disappointing.
@@ellamay6405 I mean… I thought mentioning that I got her from a Doberman rescue was enough information but apparently it’s not… let me clarify. She was available for adoption from a local Doberman rescue. I was looking for a Doberman but wasn’t in the market specifically for an albino. When I saw her, read about her, and met her, i fell in love. I did my research before committing and came to the conclusion that I could properly care for her. After having her for a few months her trauma really showed in specific situations and we had the finances to get her the help she needed. Anything else you need me to clarify for you?! 😒
Thank you for tackling the problem with "greeders". They are ruining a lot of breeds, golden retrievers included.
Hunter was a very well behaved boi, he deserves a lot of cuddles!
Another alternative is a Lagotto Italian water dog. We’ve one and she’s just the perfect family dog. They’re known for their really even temperament. My brother got a doodle and that dog has been an absolute nightmare from day one.
great info for people who just don't know. I grew up raising and breeding, showing, conformation, obedience, hunting trials, etc, GOLDEN RETRIEVERS, when the doodles came in, I was horrified. Being a dog trainer for over 45 years, I can't tell you how many doodles have come into my classes with so many health and tempermant problems, just breaks my heart. the very best to you all
Someone I know has doodles. This person was almost convinced by the breeder that letting the doodles have puppies (using the male they have as a sire with female dogs arranged by the breeder) would be a GOOD thing, but thankfully their family managed to stop that from happening and convince them to get the puppers fixed. And yes, this is a new dog owner who went into it rushed so they were probably scammed into paying premium as well. I'm probably going to link this video to them, thank you.
A friend of mine was convinced by a friend to have his male maine coon breed with a female - the deal was that he could keep a baby.
I blatantly told him she was making money on his back and wouldn't hesitate selling the kittens for a high price
But he didn't care, cue baby maine coon for free right ?
GET A MUTT! It’s fFINE!
@@heathercalun4919 All doodles are mutts.
@@ink3539 raising maine coon kitten properly is actually expensive. So a breed quality kitten with a right of first choice, or a cost of it for a mating is an established mating cost amongst breeders.
@@annasolovyeva1013 They were main coons but not purebred, at that point this is just backyard breeding.
When I was a kid we had a doodle. We didn't know what we were doing in terms of breeder research so my parents bought him out of a newspaper. The poor pup ended up having to be given to a shelter at 9 months old because he was getting aggressive around me and my toddler brother. The shelter took an x-ray and found that he was born without hip sockets, worst case of hip dysplasia they'd ever seen. He was put down shortly thereafter. He was such a good dog, but unfortunately he was in a lot of pain that we just didn't know about until he grew bigger. I still find myself crying like I did when I realised "put to sleep" was a euphemism 14 years later, he was my first dog and I loved him so much.
I'm so sorry for your loss, and for the pain your poor pup was in. You both deserved better. >:
Have you ever heard of the Rainbow Bridge?
What a privilege to watch such a beautifully behaved dog, he is a credit to his owners. Thank you for sharing.
I love my Barbet! Thank you for spreading the word about this wonderful breed. They are so smart and loving and goofy.
He’s so cute, he looks like a schnauzer while he’s in the happy hoody
AHHHHH HE'S SOO ADORABLE!! He looks kinda like a floofy adolescent bear cub in his after photo and I'm all for it lol. Once again you do an amazing job, not only with the groom itself, but in being incredibly informative and advocating for the animals you obviously care soo much about. I'm completely in agreement about the lack of accountability many puppymill "breeders" face, it's truly disheartening to hear about how often people find out AFTER they have their dog just how bad the breeder actually was.
I too thought he looked like a bear cub (after grooming). Very cute doggo.
You make a very interesting point. People who buy a car will do research, visit several dealers, try out different cars before buying one. But when it comes to dogs, an actual living breathing animal with feelings, they pick the first one they see without thinking and regretting it afterwards. Even with a lot of information and countless campaigns warning about these practices there are still too many puppy mills who sell thousands of dogs every year.
Ironically there was that story about a family who bought what they thought was a puppy in Tibet, then they noticed he was eating everything and getting up on his hind legs, turned out to be a bear.
A veritable barbet doll!
We went to Home Depot one day with our Barbet, a man came around the corner, yelped and jumped back. He thought our dog was a bear cub. It was kind of funny.
I wish everyone in the world had to watch this. So well said. As a Standard Poodle owner, all the doodles I see around with awful matting and terrible behavioural issues infuriate me! And so many people dont even know what my dogs are! They think some type of doodle, and are shocked to find out they're poodles. And YES! We need more Barbet's in the world, they are such stunning doggies and i'd love to own one one day
Agree to disagree since I love dogs when I young use to work at a shelter where I seen not just some purebreds dog there but mix and poodles and I say there we’re really aggressive and now as a part time dog growing up I had a few poodles with behavioral issues which like you infuriated me but I put that behind in my mind cause is not there fault is the human and my job now is being a dog trainer n yes there some poodles mix with behavioral issues but so are the one I trained who are mix purebred and poodles and after I trained them along with there owner there like a different dog so my point no matter the breed of any dog mix or not there will have behavioral issues that can be resolved unless there more to that mentally n in need for medication in dogs
Exactly. It’s not hate towards the breed itself but the bad breeders. Also, adoption at shelters or animal rescues no matter if they’re pure bred or not is always cool and kind and such a loving option.
all doodle breeders are bad breeders.
I'm so happy you talk about responsible breeding and responsible adoption. I'm from a country where shelters barely exist because people keep their dogs since almost everyone buys from registered breeders and no one makes impulse purchases (because the process doesn't allow them to), and it breaks my fucking heart to see how pets are treated in the United States (and probably many other countries, but most news online that I'm exposed to is about the U.S.)
I’m interested in the process of buying a dog! What is the process?
I work at a vet hospital that does canine reproductive work. You'd vomit.
@@auntieevil9324 yeah that only thing that’s worse than doodle is the french bulldog and other breeds that can only give birth by c-section. I’d stuggle with your job.
That's amazing! Where do you live? I really hope someday my country and people can achieve such standards...
I am curious, what country are you from? Agree with everything you said.
there is so many oodles we groom, and its insane, more then 50% of the current clients we have are oodles, and most of them, when they first came to us, never expected they needed so much care, especially because most of them have reducded shedding, they matt so quickly. Along with the fact, more then half of our misbehaving or difficult dogs are oodles. These poor owners and dogs are given to their homes with little or no support, research and knowledge, and i hope that changes in the future
you 'hope' ? Keep hoping as dogs are abused and not cared for by normal owners.
It's crazy, when I worked in a kennel a couple years ago it was the same, soooo many new doodles and they were all so crazy
@@DougHinVA What the heck else is that person supposed to do, steal the dogs? Shut down the breeders? Train their dogs for them for free??They're a groomer, they're limited in what they could POSSIBLY do, and a badly behaved, badly bred dog who needs a haircut isn't a "get the police/humane society involved" level problem almost always, as obnoxious as it is.
@@kuro4843 I work at a kennel and the doodles we get I always have to ask before going near if I don't know them. Many are sweethearts who are just overly excited, but others are growling bastard dogs (still love em tho, from a distance). The current big guy is Winston and his head is full of rocks and nothing else. He's a dumb-dumb but a huge sweetheart. Love em, but like... Jesus Christ....
I get so baffled when people think that less shedding = less grooming?? like, these dogs still have thick, curly hair, of course they're gonna get matted if you don't groom them.
I legit just met one of these sweethearts today. Her name was belle. I was doing a big irrigation repair and she came right up to me while walking with her human. Such a sweet dog she even gave me her paw lol
I have gained so much knowledge and respect for *true* breeders from this video alone. I'm so glad my misconceptions were cleared up!
Just as a note, the standard poodle is a retrieving breed, made to retrieve water fowl, same as labradors, golden retrievers, etc. So the poodle already can do everything a retriever does ^^
Thank you for reminding everybody that Standard poodle 🐩 is a great dog, very smart, agile. I guess poodle mini brought a bad reputation! Human fixation on “playing” with dog clothes, hats, painted nails. They should had bought a doll instead.
My standard poodle was the best boy ❤️❤️
@@angelafernandachristenseng9884 I have a miniature poodle who is a great dog, smart and agile! All poodle sizes are great dogs-they're all one breed
@@angelafernandachristenseng9884 I've had poodles all my life--Best. Breed. Ever.
@@angelafernandachristenseng9884 Poodles rock!
Thank you for explaining our hatred for the oodle. It’s not the dog itself. It’s always the owner and the breeders. The owners are never educated on how to take care of their dogs coat and then yell at the groomer because they had to take them in a 7 or 10. It’s ridiculous.
I feel like the majority of complaints and crazy abusive behavior towards groomers and bathers come from doodle owners. Mostly cause they just can't understand why their dog had to be completely shaved. Then you get the whole money hungry argument which makes me wanna throat punch them.
Unfortunately, most people aren't up to challenging dog breeds.
The guy who invented them hates it. He was trying to create a better service dog, and created a craze instead.
Dog daycare worker here, it boggles my mind how some doodle owners don’t brush or exercise the dog they spent 1k, 2k, 3k, 4k+ on… I get plenty of doodles, some of are so sweet, others are more challenging. They are individuals, and I can guarantee you not all of them are dog friendly, good with kids, low energy, etc like people claim. We have some poodle mixes with temperament issues and who cannot be with other dogs and are therefore singled to have individual play time. Most of them aren’t people aggressive, but they can be neurotic and a handful because mixing two high drive and energy breeds and expecting them to always end up as couch potatoes is such a dangerous mindset. TDLR, they can be good dogs but the breeding and owning practices of them is kind of screwed.
I have a doodle and usually keep him up well but 1 time i fell short and when the groomer called me and said that she couldnt do the certain cut I wanted because he was too matted. I could hear it in her voice that she didn't want to make that call. I said cheerfully "I totally understand please do what's best for him and I will do better by him in the future. Thank you for taking care of him". I really do love his groomer! She's the best!
Hunter was supremely well behaved! looked like he enjoyed every single part of the session
PREACH.
Hunter is such a sweetie, so well behaved ❤️ I thought he was a lagotto, so another type of waterdog, but I'm glad to know variety exists in different kinds of waterdogs!!
Hunter's breed, the Barbet, is nearly extinct, but those breeders who do raise Barbet's are meticulous in getting them health-tested, making sure not to over breed, and training their puppies for a good temperament
Hey! So did I! Lagotto Romagnolo
Hunter is a happy sweet tempered dog!
@@stephenpmurphy591 Yes, Hunter's family apparently chose well, and they got the dog they wanted. Wish more people would put more thought into how they choose their family members.
Thank you so much for this. Doodles are very sweet dogs. However, I am against breeding them because of the health problems I have seen from bad breeding. I am a vet tech so I have seen many "designer" breed dogs, especially since COVID. Some breeds are just not meant to be mixed. I love standard poodles! They are really sweet dogs. If you want a large dog with fur like a goldendoodle, definitley consider getting one. They aren't as 'fancy' as people think. They actually love to swim and be active! Plus, there are poodles of all sizes to suit a person's home or activity level. The Barbet is super cute! I'll have to recommend them to people looking to buy a doodle.
Re: standard poodles, in the first Kingsman movie, all the recruits have to pick a dog to train. The only girl in the group picks a poodle. Everyone starts laughing at her and she rolls her eyes and reminds them that poodles are gun dogs.
We take my dog sometimes to our friends house out in the more rural lands, and he runs in circles and in the rivers and streams! It’s great seeing him do what he was made to do!
I wish that people would stop assuming poodles are "fancy" dogs. You don't have to have a poodle in a show cut if you don't want to. You can let the fur grow longer or keep it all short, and pompoms are optional. My boy has never had pompoms because I don't like them, and they would be a problem when we're out in the snow. When I let him get a bit fluffier in the winter, everyone assumes he's a Goldendoodle because he doesn't have the poodle style shaved face.
Standard poodles are working dogs and therefore have a lot of energy which isn't perfect for everyone, but they're also very smart, sweet, and easy to train. They're also significantly easier to groom as they have a much more consistent coat than doodles.
😁another vet tech. My docs wife got a poodle. She begged for this dog. We all bring our animals in to work. She only bought him in when he was very young. Hes now a full grown nutcase (no training) that cant be around clients(Pets or people). Gorgeous dog, goid breeding, but only bought for looks and prestige
I had a standard poodle, he was the most intelligent and sweet dog in the world! The only issue I observed was he had ear problems often, and I know that poodles are prone to them!
What a well behaved dog! A great ambassador of his breed. Well done mom & dad! ❤
I have a mini Poodle. My groomer told me the exact same thing. Thanks for spreading the news. I hope this sweat dog lives a long healthy life. You did a wonderful job on Hunter.
I have a Portuguese Water Dog, my neighbour has a Barbet. We constantly talk about how many times a week people ask if they are Doodles, and it's hard not to shout "No, these are 1000 year old breeds" because it makes you seem kind of snobby, but in reality I paid a lot less for my Portie than some people pay for a Doodle from a farm in nowhere land with no papers. no support, no health testing. As someone below said, if you want a non/low shedding dog that is smart, great with families and easily trained, get a Poodle, a Portie, or a Barbet. Or even better, if you can find one at a shelter, adopt one. They are all amazing breeds.
I have a Lagotto Romagnolo, she is also non shedding as I have an allergy to dogs ^^ she’s a smaller version of a Portuguese Water Dog from Italy
My grandparents had Porties when I was growing up and they were great! Their first portie basically taught me how to swim
I want an Irish Water Spaniel and to move into a Barbet/Portuguese Water Dog/Lagotto Romagnolo community so we can all look down on the designer dog people whilst representing Europe
Maybe you should produce little cards explaining this that they can ponder over later. Hand them out to those that ask.
Funny youi call them "porties" here in Portugal people often call a PWD "Tuga" (or Tugas if plural) because its an abreviation of the word "portuga" which is a slang word for someone or something that is Portuguese
Doodles are the bain of many dog professionals. Including myself, a trainer. 50 to 70% of my clients have been doodles in the last 5 years of business. Of the multi-dozens I've trained I only actually liked the temperament/behavior of two individuals.
They are crazy upkeep coat wise, crazy smart but rarely 'easy' to train. That is they learn things quickly, but maintaining training is a huge struggle for nearly all my clients as doodles seem to be the worst counter surfers, destructive, and selective hearing dogs of any larger group of dogs I've ever trained. They are super intelligent and extremely reluctant to let go of their own agendas over their owners wishes.
In my area, greater Seattle Washington, most doodles also come with a healthy dose of anxiety and the fear based behaviors that come with genetic anxiety.
I'm also including all the groomers, veterinarians, trainers, and dog sitters I know personally in my assessment. I know for a fact my experiences with doodles are excessively common. It's very unfortunate.
I agree to all of this, it is very sad.
I adopted my Australian shepherd poodle mix and the anxiety behaviors and selective hearing are big ones for my boy for sure. Love him to bits, but he can be a piece of work.
They sound more like cats with anxiety issues than dogs
As a pet sitter with Wag, I had worked with a pair of doodles twice last year. In addition, I have also seen doodles that are therapy dogs. I never asked the owners how much work was required to train doodles at the time since the breed was new to me. Now I know what I know about them, I am highly cautious with any doodle I come across.
I am in the process of researching on what breeds of dogs should I get, and I eliminated doodles from the list. If I wanted to play Russian roulette with genetics, I'd get a mutt at a shelter.
I actually have a pure bred standard poodle who is 11 yrs old and he's the perfect big boi. We got him from a professional breeder who'd also train the dogs perfectly. We have all his papers and records. He's super sweet and gentle. The only problem with him is a chronic ear infection that he's had for years and we're managing it. The infection itself isnt genetic, its from a bowl of water, we let his hair on his ears get long and he got water in his ears, creating the infection. Long story short: it's okay to have a doodle or poodle, if you know and trust the breeder you get it from. There are some very good breeders, but there are even more bad ones. Be careful who you buy your doodle/poodle from.
I love how you educate in these videos on top of narrating the groom :)
I love that you did a Barbet! I walk a barbet every day and absolutely love the breed. You're so right, the owners got the dog from a great breeder and he is a fantastic pup!
What a gorgeous chunk of a dog, the breed I've not heard of until today. You did a fantastic groom and he obviously loved the attention. Thank you for highlighting dangers of designer dogs. So many are in shelters due to many problems.
LOVE your words on backyard breeding and the repercussions of "designer dog breeds"..... I see "doodle puppies for sale" all over my area and it makes me sad and angry.
i'm so happy this channel has gotten big, you truly do deserve it with all the good stuff you do for these cute pets
You are simply amazing and so much fun to watch your interaction with the dogs. Love your enthusiasm.wishing you all the best.
My aunt's schnauzer is a rescue. He was rescued before his 10 weeks because the greeders realized he had so many health issues due to... Cousins breeding. They were going to let him die, basically. Backyard breeding is awful, please be careful when getting a new companion. They are a life too and they deserve better!
I’m actually very happy you talked about this. I have a boyfriend who is allergic to pet dander and we’ve discussed getting a hypoallergenic dog before. I never even heard this controversy about Labradoodles.
Sadly there's no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog. You basically have to decide whether the allergies are worth it. I'm super allergic to cats and after cat sitting for a few people I've decided I could never get one because it was so bad, so I get how sad it is :(
I have a cookapoo, which is possibly the first of the “doodle” breeds. I have dog allergies and he does not bother me. No shedding to speak of. Some behavior issues but an excellent trainer and lots of patience helped and we think he’s a great dog. And I’m not breaking out in itchy spots!
@@ausieemu it isn't breed related always, just individual related, but some cats just have more or less dander than others. It isn't even related to the length of thier hair. Even hairless cats can have dander. My long haired rescue of unknown breed has some but not that much so my allergies have acclimated to living with her and only act up if I rub my eyes after petting her. But if I go visit someone else with cats I can be in snot and tears just being in the same room as them without touching them
There's also Havanese if barbets are too big. Keep in mind that Havanese can be really hyperactive tho
I'm also allergic to dogs, I have a maltipoo and thankfully I don't have any problems. However, it might be different for other people and dogs so if you decide on a dog, you could visit the breeder first and let your boyfriend spend some time with the dogs to make sure he doesn't have a reaction (that's what I did before I got my dog).
I love the Barbet!! I am allergic to dogs, which breaks my heart, and I love labs. SO, I considered a Doodle. Not anymore!!! Thank you for sharing so much great information!! ❤️
If you go to a responsible breeder and are willing to spend time and effort training a ddole, then I think it's worth it
My parents just bought a whoodle (soft-coated wheaten terrier/poodle mix) and I’m going to send them this video. I’ve tried explaining why I don’t like poodle mixes but you said it perfectly. Thank you for spreading awareness of this and many other issues in the pet world 😊
Thank you for talking about an unusual breed. I never heard of a Barbet.
Incredibly well-behaved, especially when you were using scissors around his face, almost as if he was saying "not too much off the top and trim up the sides please". He is really handsome, especially after you have finished, what a beautiful coat.
Love the little bit of you playing with the pupper at the end.
Wow! That baby’s blending is so good!!!! You did a perfect job ♥️♥️♥️♥️
My first thought when I heard the breed’s name was “Come on Barbet let’s go Partet.” I’m sorry.
Thank you for not only being a fabulous groomer, chock-full of valuable information, but more importantly, your advocacy on the behalf of these beautiful creatures.
Exactly!
i really appreciate all the knowledge & information you give! I learned so much from this channel as I prepare for the next few years to get a dog!
Not only do you demonstrate what it's really like to be a professional dog groomer, you also educate your audience about specific breed characteristics, but you also let them know about unscrupulous dog breeding practices.
A responsible breeder is invaluable, setting an owner up with a healthy and happy dog. You can tell responsible breeder by how throughly they check you out - they are not going to let their dogs go to just anyone. For them it is a labour of love.
our dog is a labrador from a responsible breeder, and he really cares. anyone who wants to adopt has to visit his kennel several times, and he'll refuse to sell a dog if he gets a bad vibe from potential buyers. and at any time, even years later, he'll accept a dog back if the owner can no longer take care of them.
@@UncleSmithers Same with my GSD breeder, and I could have brought 3 of her for the price of what most are buying 1 doodle dog for... crazy!!
@@UncleSmithers excellent point - I signed an agreement that if, at anytime in the future, I couldn’t take care of my dog for any reason, I would return her to my breeder. My 1st dog lived for 14 years and I was in touch with her breeder throughout her lifetime. Durning that time, she shared with me that she re-homed my dog’s father when he was 7 years old because the owner was struggling to give him the care and attention he needed.
Thank you for acknowledging three are good breeders out there. I have two Sheepadoodles which I got from a wonderful breeder who is very careful with her breeding and with who she lets her puppies go to. I have followed her videos on FB for years so I see how she cares for the momma dogs and the pups. Both of my girls are wonderful and very healthy. I know I am lucky to have found a good, reputable breeder.
@@heatherwatkins9218 “Reputable” lmao
He’s such a sweet boy! Thank you for always educating. Especially with bad and good breeders. It’s so important to highlight that. My aunt was even scammed when she got her shih tzu. They promised her he was a perfect little dog that wouldn’t ever get bigger and would be able to fit in her handbag since he’d be so small. Well he let growing. And growing. And he ended up being around a 30lbs dog and developed diabetes.(not from being fat, he wasn’t fat. He was just a bigger dog than promised. Just wanted to highlight he wasn’t obese or anything)
Not a Shi Tzu then. I wonder what a doggy genetic test would say for him.
@@CricketsBay he was definitely part shih tzu. Just not pure bred
My aunt has a lapso also and apparently when you neuter them, they tend to gain weight. She rescued him off the street as a puppy from a poor woman trying to get rid of the puppies, and had no former knowledge of taking care of dogs. It’s sad how many people tend to think dogs are like cats, you don’t need to be with a cat all day, but dogs would prefer the company and excersise.
Vanessa, Hunter seems like such a Nice Boy! Seeing him frisk around a bit with you is a joy. Never heard of his breed before; very useful if you hunt birds! Woof! 🐶💓
Vanessa: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! You hit every nail right on the head in your video. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Designer breed is the most terrifying thing I've ever heard, I didn't even know that such atrocity could exist, people are going crazy.
Designer breed is another way of saying fancy mutt.
It makes me so angry. Wait until you see "micro bullies". They have so many health issues the average lifespan is only 5 years
As my mother always said, “just get the poodle”
@@epicOway they're literally turning dogs into frogs
I rescued a designer breed (Pomeranian/American Eskimo) and she might have come from a puppy mill. I'm really hoping she'll be ok, but I worry about long term health complications since her origin is kinda fishy.
I worked at a dog daycare for a year, and yeah, most all the doodles that attended were each neurotic in their own special way -- incessant barkers, nasty tempers, or fear of everything. Not to mention they often didn't have a clue about dog manners.
I was a vet tech for 5 years + noticed the same exact things!
Vet tech here too... Same. Uneducated owners that also refuse to be educated and crazy f...ing dogs. Our worst one is generally a pretty sweet boy but is deathly afraid of everything (including clippers so you can imagine what he looks like...) and the owners are pretty much the equivalent to helicopter-parents. If their baby doesn't like something they keep it away from him instead of desensitizing... All advice falls on deaf ears.
Problem is, people ignorant or self-centered enough to buy these dogs also don't bother to train them. One jerk in my neighborhood lets her doodle run all over other people's yards on a long leash. And pee and crap on OTHERS" lawns when hers is three houses down. Too bad there aren't laws regulating the breeding of such humans.
@@JOHN----DOE aw that sucks. The neighbors with affected lawns should coordinate and pick up the poops from their lawns and then dump them all on her lawn on the same day. Repeatedly. 😋
We have a labradoodle. I grew up with dogs but my husband and one of my kids have allergies. We got on a waitlist for a labradoodle before COVID from a lady who was a registered poodle breeder for decades. It took us years to get to the front of the list and we had to wait a couple of more litters because my husband had allergic reactions to all of the first couple of litters.
He's a year old now and very healthy. Our vet's office loves him and have seen a few other dogs from the same breeder that are healthy with good temperaments. Our first time at the groomer we got a high quote but he cut the price in half after working with him. He said they'd had a lot of problems with labradoodles but he was wonderfully well behaved. When we needed to send him to a kennel overnight at a doggy daycare/resort, they required a couple of meet and greets before they accepted him. I was very nervous because he hadn't spent a lot of time around other dogs, just humans and he didn't go to puppy school (COVID overfilled the classes around here). He was amazing! They had camera's so we could see how he was doing and he so well behaved and they've welcomed back any time.
We discussed getting a dog for 10 years before we settled on a breeder and got on the waitlist. We needed a big yard first, at least one person home with our dog every day and a dog who didn't trigger allergies. Our breeder went to great pains to make sure that we were good candidates to adopt. He surpassed our expectations and he's a wonderful, smart, laid back dog who fits perfectly into our family.
I think people are being wayyy too harsh on the mix. That some shitty breeders exist doesn't mean the mix is bad.
Seriously I am so glad you spoke about this, you can reach so many people!
Beautiful job, blending is lovely 😍
I have a 6month old GSD and I'm honestly so thankful for finding the right breeder.. No hips problems or Stomach issues in the entire line and he literally specializes in GSDs only.
I am truly shocked that I have never heard of this clearly wonderful breed. I hope they are not a vulnerable breed because they should be preserved and valued.
Thank you for introducing him and educating people on your channel.
I myself am from Northern Ireland and am a Bichon Frise (x2) owner. I also have a love affair with the Old English Sheepdog.
I totally agree with you about ‘designer breeds and breeders’
I wish this breed and other well breed dogs were known and prized as much.
🐶❤️🐶
I got a "designer dog" on accident. My boy Phantom came from our local animal control and was so terrified of the world. He was in need of a special home situation that I happened to fit so I took him. We did a DNA test on him and turns out he is a pomsky. Thankfully free of any genetic disorders! Not to say he won't ever develop anything, but there were no flags from his dna profile. I am sure he came from a puppy mill because we live in Missouri, but regardless I am thankful for having him.
your passion for your work makes me melt
literally such a cute dog, i’m crying
I know of Barbets because my neighbour has 2 of them :D they're absolute sweethearts and are so patient, we're socialising our dog with them at the moment because of how calm they are and how nervous he is.
Thank you! Great groom job.
And I learned about a breed I have never heard about.
Excellent work
You are truly a master of your craft young lady. The most talented dog groomer I have ever seen.
He is adorable like a Teddy bear but it's his personality that shines. What an excellent boy! We had a Cockapoo in the 80s and 90s. He was supposed to be a toy but grew to about the same size as Hunter. My Grandpa said old Teddy was the best bird dog. He lived to the age 21, really the best of boys.
My dog is the opposite! He and his litter were supposed to be around 35-40 pounds, and he stayed that size while ALL of his siblings grew to 50+ pounds, the biggest being about 75! Crazy!
This has to be the quietest dog you've ever groomed! 😂 he's gorgeous and sweet, you did a great job as usual and now I know of another breed my daughter and I can look into before we get our first pet. Thanks 😊
Toast is such a cute pet name!
My fiancee’s doodle gets hate from people sometimes. Still very affordable and has been a dream to take care of. He sits on poodle behavior with irish golden fur. Very wavy. I’ve had shepherds through my life and it’s really easy teaching such an intelligent doodle when they don’t have such a job function.
We supported our breeder because we were able to spend months with their family and my Fiancee’s brother also bought from them. People still look at us like we are doing an injustice in not buying a shelter dog but some breeders are very good. Also apps do exist to search your breed from shelters or sellers so take your time and find what’s right for you.
Doodle isn't a breed
Beautiful dog!! Glad you're spreading the message about designer dog breeds ✌️💥 Keep up the great work 🤩
When I worked at a vet clinic we had someone bring in a petco puppy (already about twenty red flags) that they'd just purchased. It was a little brown doodle that could still be held in one hand. Since it was a petco puppy and since I'm in ohio, we know for sure that it was bread by the Amish in a puppymill. The owners had had it for about two days, and it had already gotten parvo. When I was scanning their paperwork, I saw the price they paid for it.
$5000.
They'd set up a payment plan for this dog through Petco and were paying a couple hundred a month, and would be for several years. For a sick, poorly bred dog that already had parvo and was going to develop who knew what kinds of issues down the line.
Petco doesn't sell puppies, what are you talking about?
@@Hayri2011 different stores in different states sell different things
@@viah5472 No, it's a corporate policy that they don't sell puppies. If you find a Petco that is selling puppies, somehow, despite not having any SKU for them, please report them to corporate. Blast them on social media. They're breaking company policy.
There's also no payment plan, for any animal or any product at Petco. I think op is getting Petco mixed up with another pet store.
Petco has never sold.dogs or cats... There's been times they had adoption events. But they have never sold puppies. The original post is just a lie looking for attention.
Petco only holds adoption events through adoption agencies they don't really sell puppies. Though I'll admit the "adoption agency" my store works with keeps bringing in litters of puppies that look suspiciously similar
Oh my gosh, I can't handle how sweet and absolutley adorable Hunter is!
FABULOUS factual information!! Thank you SOOOO much!!!
You are so right about irresponsible breeders. I had 2 standard poodles in the past and now the breeders just used them to make designer dogs. Standard poodles are my fave, but I ended up getting a long-haired German Shepherd and she's everything and more that I had hoped for.
Cannot beat a GSD💞
I grew up loving doodles as my family had them (I still love their personalities but for the reasons stated I don’t support the breeding of them).
Thank you so much for being open about the issues of designer breeds. At the end of the day it’s the dogs who suffer. I can take people calling me a ‘pedigree snob’ but at least the dogs I purchase will NEVER end up in a shelter so I can happily say I do support shelters and rescues because I don’t support breeders who mass pump out dogs and don’t care about there they go. (when looking into a breeder contracts about returning the dog are very important! You don’t know what could happen in the next 15 years ish of your life!)
Ethical/responsible breeders and good rescues (yes there is such a thing as bad rescues) need to work together to highlight these issues, because as I said it’s the dogs who suffer and they should be our priority ❤️
I have multiple purebred rescue dogs, including a great pyranees and a French Bulldog. Hard to imagine either ending up in a shelter. I've seen purebred GSDs, Giant Schnauzers and Greet Danes at the same (excellent) shelter. But for every purebred dog there are 5 more that are some sort of pit mix - and some combos are pretty amazing like pit/husky.
@@jawjagrrl definitely - unfortunately there’s thousands of crappy (backyard) breeders for every good breeder. I definitely will not purchase a dog if the breeder will not take it back in the circumstance I can no longer care for the dog, to me this is just fueling a bigger issue, the fact there’s too many dogs for shelters. Pedigree or no pedigree unethical breeders are always going to be a issue unfortunately, it’s just up to the rest of us to educate people the best we can
Alot of ' so called good breeders' will not take dogs back, as they can introduce diseases into their breeding dogs.
There are alot of pedigree dog breeders that just breed for money, too you know.
They just hide, under their very thin veneer of respectability.
Just a question but why do you not support the breeding of them? There are good ethical breeders out there. (Yes they are very few but they exist) I don’t think the whole designer breed should be wiped out. Instead we need to fix the backyard breeding issue. Because it’s not just the doodle that gets backyard bred. It’s basically all breeds. Im just curious why the doodle is being attacked out of all the other breeds and mixed-breeds out there.
@@maple_the_aussiedoodle3167 you cannot ethically breed a mutt in my own opinion. Sure you can argue that breeding a mix breed for a purpose is potentially ok but doodles don’t fall into this category - too many crappy breeders for that, as stated in this video they will lie and say the dog can do anything. The main point of this being doodles don’t and never will have an official standard. How do you strive to make a healthy breed if each breeder is making something different? It’s all over the place. I’ve seen so many doodles with really bad proportions and I just know they’re going to have health problems as they get older. Never said anything to their owners bc it’s not my place but ironically most of the owners are the first people to call pedigrees unhealthy 😂 (yes a lot of the BYB pedigrees are but that’s what you get if you support bad breeding)
And agreed I don’t like any BYB but doodles are just money making. Same with bullies. A really good example to look at is the XL Bully here in the UK (which is also considered a designer breed - AKA a money making devise for people who like to profit from dog breeding). The XL Bully has no standard it’s a mix of many bully breeds, the biggest issue with this breed is the breeders are so crappy they give them to just anyone for a status dog. They’ve absolutely blown up here and there is now talk of them being added to the banned dog list and they’ll likely take a lot of breeds with them, as hard as many of us are trying to undo the damage of Breed Specific Legislation bad breeders and irresponsible owners ruin it for everyone, and it will cost a lot of innocent dogs lives. Doodles whilst they aren’t usually the same level as a bully breed they can still be very unpredictable. Speaking to a lot of the dog community most attacks they’ve had on dogs have come from doodles. You can’t predicted a temperament of a dog that doesn’t even have a standard really. You aren’t making a breed your bashing too different breeds with different jobs together.
Sure some may turn out ok but what happens to the rest? Do we just shove them under the carpet?
My main final point is mixbreeds aren’t healthier than pedigrees. If you can find me any reputable data that states this then please do.
My point here is a doodle doesn’t have a standard, how do you say what the best specimen is when there isn’t a standard? How do you then compare that to a pedigree? I can also confidently state in most poorly done test they aren’t testing well bred pedigrees, so the whole breed gets dragged down by crappy breeders who only have eyes for money. I’ve be very interested to see this test done by breed clubs although I’ve no idea how you’ll compare it to such an unpredictable breed. Doodles are just all over the place unfortunately and I just don’t support unethical breeding. Why should the dogs pay the price for our greed?
I love how informative your videos are ❤
Thank you for sharing the post-groom antics. It really gives the client-pup opportunity to shake off the stresses of grooming and allows them to return to the peaceful playtime they all crave!
The groom complete transformed him. I've never seen such a patient dog with the face groom. But seeing him run through the yard was pure bliss.
I spoke to a breeder who wanted to find the right dog to match our family, over just saying "whichever one u think is cute" or some thing. Meanwhile someone in my family has a breeder (of large, loud, hard to train working dogs) who literally called her up to see if she wanted to buy more dogs... Be very very very very wary and picky if you decide to go with a breeder, and try to find one who works with / donates to rescues and shelters. If you have to go for breeder over adoption for whatever reason, you should always find a breeder who has a passion for the breed, cares more about health than show-standards, and one that's well reputed, does health testing, and cares about where their puppies end up.
That’s why I feel in love with the Doberman breeder I plan to get from, they temperament test, and DNA test puppies. Parents have all required health testing and DNA tests on top of that. They also recently increased their health guarantee to 4 years.
I can’t wait til I can afford a puppy from them.
@@early_morning_sd_team Hey, could you provide more info about the breeder? Do they crop the ears and tail? Im looking for a normal Doberman dog (one without the surgeries done)
@@camilaribeiras6311 if in the US, all reputable doberman breeders will dock. You can usually choose not to have them docked though as they will match dogs to homes before that.
@@early_morning_sd_team make sure they are doing the heart testing yearly😊
What a beautiful floof! those giant paws are so cute. he was so patient!
What an absolute angel. So incredibly well behaved for his grooming. Also, he turned out like a giant fluffy teddy bear and I just wanna give him all the snuggles and smooches.
Not heard of a Barbet, but Hunter was a WONDERFUL ambassador for his breed! SUCH a good boy! I think he even fell asleep there for the dryer 😂
In this video, we see a barbet dog and a dog barber.
He is gorgeous and the cut is perfect. ❤
Just another thank you for bringing light on the backyard breeder situation!! Thank you! ♥️ Spy my GSP says hi!:)
