Adventure is the name of the game for the Goldendoodle

Author: Dee Gerrish

For the Goldendoodle, adventure must be taken seriously. After all, there are lizards to catch, frogs to watch and flowers to smell. "The Goldendoodle's determination in just being a happy dog is awesome!", says Dee Gerrish of Goldendoodle World. "There's nothing these dogs can't do."

For centuries, the purebred Golden Retriever as well as the Standard Poodle, have been loved by many. Both breeds of dogs have been used as hunting dogs, master hunters, companion as well as show dogs. Both dogs are excellent swimmers. Some Goldens and Poodles have been known to be terrific divers.

Today, few are used for hunting but it doesn't mean their keen sense of smell is any less. The Goldendoodle dog picks up a very healthy, equal balance of both breeds when they are a shaggy coat. The curly coat Goldendoodle sways more toward their purebred Poodle heritage and the smooth coat Goldendoodle sways more toward their purebred Golden Retriever heritage.

The Goldendoodle, regardless of coat type, is a very smart and confident breed. But don't let that confidence fool you into believing they are an independent dog. The Goldendoodle loves companionship and they need their humans just as much, if not more, than their humans need them. Although this beautiful hybrid will seldom appear in anything more than fun dog shows, their playfulness and eagerness outdoors brings a bucket load of adventure!

Eager to please, the Goldendoodle is very receptive to most obedience training and they are very playful with children. Dee says, "The number one complaint among Goldendoodle owners is that this hybrid does require quite a bit of coat maintenence". Indeed, keep lots of towels around! "Goldendoodles love the water. If they see a puddle, for sure they are going to jump right in it and not go around it!", Dee warns. "They can be very messy".

Goldendoodle owners need to correct them immediately, otherwise inappropriate behaviour can quickly turn into a bad habit. Says Dee, "These dogs usually only need to be shown something a couple of times before they get it. Subsequently, they can learn bad habits just as quickly." Fortunately, the Goldendoodle dog can learn good habits very quickly, helping to ensure that this dog is an affable, lovable companion.

The Goldendoodle is a wonderful dog. They are beautiful, adventurous, friendly and highly intelligent. Dee Gerrish of Goldendoodle World says, "They really do have a disposition that makes them the ideal pet for families with children of all ages, no matter how old the doodle is when they are adopted".

She is the first breeder to have registered the Goldendoodle dog with a ligitimate kennel club, Universal Kennel International.

The eyes have it----The Goldendoodle is a colorful dog

Author: Dee Gerrish

They're the eyes of eagerness; happiness; long walks in the park; a belly rub; a scratch behind the ears. The Goldendoodle's eyes radiates it's soulful personality whether they are brown, blue, green or two different colors.

Regardless of color, the Goldendoodle has the ability to elicit a wide range of emotions from their owners. People find the Goldendoodle dog very interesting, especially when they have different colored eyes or light colored eyes. Dee Gerrish, of Goldendoodle World says, "Brown eyes is a very dominating gene for our Goldendoodles, but off and on, we see blue, green and multi colored eyes crop up. It doesn't matter if both parents have blue eyes or if one parent has blue eyes and the other parent has green eyes. The brown eyed gene is so strong through out the lineage of our Goldendoodles that it is still difficult to have more blue eyed doodles." Dee says, "Since 1999, I've learned everything I possibly could from these terrific hybrid dogs. I started my own business in 1996 right after I got out of the military and settled down in North Carolina with my husband. We are both prior military. I started my business from bare bones. Even though the last few years have been like one big roller coaster ride, all I have to do is look into the eyes of my Goldendoodles to feel better again. No other job would have afforded me the opportunity to spread so much love around the world, to so many people, for so many years."

The eyes of the Goldendoodle provides a sense of happiness. Coming from a marketing background, Dee has been able to see what sparks the interest of those seeking these low shedding dogs. Says Dee, "By creating Goldendoodles with unique features and varying colorful eyes, we are trying to show the positive traits these dogs have. They are more than just a designer mutt."

Dee says, "I knew I should have been on this path years before when everyone I talked to said it was my "calling". I have the ability to see things in a different light; I love meeting and talking to new people. I've always loved dogs and animals in general. I've owned dogs since I was a little girl. The funny thing is, I was always very shy and felt awkward talking to people I didn't know. When I talk to people about my dogs, that shyness just flies right out the window!".

Goldendoodles who are born with green eyes are unique also. As young puppies, their eyes are actually green. As the doodle becomes older, the green eyes turn into an amber color. While chocolate Goldendoodles, as a whole, will always be born with green eyes that eventually turn amber, light apricot Goldendoodles can be born with green eyes as well. All green eyed Goldendoodles will sport a liver colored (chocolate) nose, eye trim and paw pads. Those doodles born with blue eyes are always cream or apricot (light or dark). Never will you find a black or chocolate Goldendoodle born with blue eyes. Black Goldendoodles are always born with brown eyes.

"There's a little piece of my heart in every Goldendoodle that is created by my dogs. My long range plans are to continue spreading love and joy to people around the world, through my puppies and dogs, for as long as I possibly can. I want my Goldendoodles to help make the world a better place, no matter what color their eyes are!", says Dee of Goldendoodle World. "I don't think anyone can own a Goldendoodle and remain unmoved. When my dogs can't find the homes they deserve, I take it personally hard. These dogs are very special because they act like they are so grateful to have you as their companion."

Indeed, the Goldendoodle makes the perfect family companion regardless of what color eyes they have. It is natural that people who see them, want to bring them home. But not everyone has the capability of understanding that these dogs are very dependent upon their owners. They become lonely if they have no companionship. They can become destructive if they become bored. They will tend to bark more than usual if they are ignored. The Goldendoodle may not be everyone's cup of tea. So many breeders tout they are hypoallergenic and non-shedding dogs when that just isn't the case. Goldendoodles will shed, but they will shed very little. All dogs can bring in pollen from the outdoors, so owning a dog who is hypoallergenic isn't possible. The Goldendoodle has few limitations since they are highly intelligent. Professional training makes for a perfect dog. Training is crucial for successful ownership if you have had little experience with dogs in general. If an owner is willing to devote time to their new doodle, they will own a perfect dog, even if they have one blue eye and one brown eye!

Taking your Goldendoodle to work

Author: Dee Gerrish

Bink in Holland

As the Goldendoodle dog becomes more popular, many doodle owners are beginning to take their dogs to work. As the doodle rises from its bed underneath their owner's desk, it isn't uncommon for the Goldendoodle to waltz itself from cubicle to cubicle, picking up treats along its way.

Standing and waiting happily with its nose pressed against a filing cabinet, the Goldendoodle is very patiently waiting for a glancing smile or a pat on its head. For many people, taking their family dog with them to work is just a part of their daily routine. June 22nd is "Take your dog to work" day. You should encourage your boss to allow you to bring your Goldendoodle to work if you work in a company small enough to allow this. Created and sponsored by "Pet Sitters International", nearly 500 companies in the beginning participated in permitting their employees to bring their pets to work. That number has jumped well past 5,000 here in 2009. This event draws massive attention to the value of dogs of all breeds, including rescue dogs and shelter dogs. Taking your Goldendoodle to work with you has its advantages. He or she is, after all, a mixed breed dog. By bringing your Goldendoodle to work, you are encouraging someone who may not own a pet, to consider giving one of their own, a good home.

Perhaps they've never considered this type of dog or they've never seen one. Perhaps they were thinking about adopting a shelter dog but were afraid of giving a mixed breed dog a chance. The Goldendoodle dog will surely put all of those fears to rest as soon as your co-workers meet him or her. Even if for one day, the Goldendoodle dog can demonstrate how well behaved they are; how friendly they are; what wonderful companions they can be and how little they shed. Taking your well-behaved Goldendoodle to work with you can show others how this simple gesture can increase company productivity not to mention lower absenteeism! Taking your Goldendoodle to work also helps to encourage interaction and socialization. A pet friendly company gives dog owners a peace of mind. Employees can work late and still be able to feed, walk and care for their Goldendoodle companion. For other employees, this policy can ease stress and anxiety. Dee Gerrish, of Goldendoodle World says, "Many of our customers take their Goldendoodles to work with them. I hear it all the time.

They say it helps them to not worry so much about how they are going to get home in time to take their new puppy out for potty breaks and it definitely helps them become a better dog owner. Their Goldendoodle is a companion dog who needs them just as much as they need the dog. Both the doodle and the owner benefits from a pet friendly work place". Employees who are able to bring their Goldendoodle to work agree that this type of policy is a great perk! Their doodles can accompany them where ever they go because their owner is always around. The Goldendoodle hybrid can become very lonely when left home for hours on end waiting for their owner to come home. Dee says, "Everyone benefits from having a Goldendoodle around! Look at it this way, how many people do you think will be uncooperative at work if a Goldendoodle comes up and licks your hand or gives you a friendly smile?".

GUIDE TO PERFECT PETIQUETTE

*Your boss would probably be more willing to permit you to bring your Goldendoodle to work providing that you:

1. Teach your Goldendoodle basic obedience commands.

2. Socialize your Goldendoodle with other dogs.

3. Don't bring squeeky or noisy toys to work.

4. Be careful to not bring your Goldendoodle around those with allergies unless they specifically ask you to.

5. Make sure your work area is large enough to accomodate your doodle's bed and other daily needs.

6. Make sure your Goldendoodle isn't a noisy barker.

7. Make sure to remove your doodle's collar tags so as not to disrupt co-workers.

8. Only walk your Goldendoodle in designated areas.

9. Always clean up after your Goldendoodle when he or she goes "potty".

10. Ensure you bring enough water and food and treats for your doodle.

Love and stardom....the King of hearts

Author: Dee Gerrish

The Goldendoodle dog will steal your heart. As they bounce around waiting for the right stick to be tossed, or the next leaf to blow, the Goldendoodle hybrid always appears to be smiling. Leaning forward, watching with intense curiosity, they may even turn their head from side to side. Just what is going on inside of that intelligent mind?

The Goldendoodle gets great satisfaction out of being your best friend. Nothing makes this dog happier than to be by your side, prancing around, tail swiftly wagging. Don't ever underestimate this Golden Retriever/Poodle mix! The doodle dog is a happy camper as long as he or she can be with you and of course, they'd be even happier, the more toys you can provide them.

Charlie's owners, the Rohlinger family, know just how fun a Goldendoodle can be. Jennifer says that people are always wanting to take a photo of Charlie where ever they go. Charlie is a Goldendoodle World doodle who's breeder, Dee Gerrish, takes great pride in only providing the best family dog possible to those who seek them.

"Charlie is the best dog we've ever had", says Jennifer Rohlinger, "The kids absolutely love him and it doesn't matter where we take him, everyone falls in love with him!". The Goldendoodle dog loves to carry toys in their mouth. Charlie's lineage carries an impressive 400+ champion ancestors who are companion dogs, master hunters, utility dogs as well as champion show dogs. Even if a toy doesn't belong to a Goldendoodle, they love to carry things in their mouth.

The Goldendoodle dog is considered to be a soft mouthed dog. Providing they have a shaggy or smooth coat, this dog tends to a low barker but full of comical antics! The curly coat doodle can tend to bark more. Any time the Rohlinger children pass Charlie by, it's possible for him to have a stuffed toy in his mouth. Even if it doesn't belong to him. The kids laugh and get a big kick out of his antics. One thing Goldendoodles are great at is playing "Keep away". Dee Gerrish, of Goldendoodle World says, "Our Goldendoodles begin to learn this game when they are approximately four weeks of age. I buy them stuffed animals, toys that rattle and toys that all of the puppies can grab onto as a group. Usually two or three will grab the toy and they'll learn to pull each other around with it. It isn't uncommon at all for a puppy to snatch the toy and just taunt the others with it as if saying, "Catch me if you can".

Dee further says, "Goldendoodles enjoy playing with each other as littermates. Sometimes one will become rough with another but the trick is to give the group of puppies a lot of appropriate objects for them to carry in their mouth. If they have plenty of toys to play with and chew on as young puppies, they won't try and "steal" toys away from each other.

Although the Goldendoodle dog is not as bad a chewer as other types of dogs, any dog who becomes bored, can become destructive. Chewing on objects can either relieve stress if the dog is bored or anxious or if your doodle is a young puppy, he or she may be teething and could just be chewing on objects for comfort. Unlike Labs, a Golden Retriever tends to be more on the mellow side. Many of the fine traits of the purebred Golden Retriever are picked up by those doodles with a shaggy or smooth coat. Some Goldendoodles may have indiscriminate culinary tastes! Dee Gerrish of Goldendoodle World says, "When our puppies become interested in checking out solid food, I purchase various types of Gerber jarred baby food. Much of it has fruit in it. Our puppies favorite Gerber baby food is Rice cereal and pears!". Dee says, "It's the sweet taste of the pears that they enjoy so much!".

The Rholinger children will all agree that Charlie the doodle is a star in his own right! Jennifer tells Dee Gerrish of Goldendoodle World, "Dee, it doesn't matter where I take Charlie! Everyone stops dead in their tracks to pet him! I could be driving down the road and as soon as Charlie puts his head out the window, people will slow down to get a peek at him! Charlie is a celebrity!".

Indeed, the Goldendoodle dog is a celebrity in their own right. Many commercials are featuring this beautiful hybrid dog. Even business owners who have magazine ads are using photos and images of the Goldendoodle. This designer dog has come a long way, baby! 2007 marked ten years that the Goldendoodle hybrid has been leaving other dogs in their dust. Many believed the doodle was nothing more than a fad, but they are here to stay! This breed first reared its beautiful head in the United States around 1997. Dee began her Goldendoodle breeding program in 1999. She became a private, professional hobby breeder in North Carolina the beginning of 1996. Dee first fell in love with the Golden Retriever. Her passion and devotion to her Goldendoodle dog caused her to begin writing about them in 1999.

"You don't have to have a farm or acres of land to own a Goldendoodle", says Dee. "Those who have joined our Goldendoodle World family have come up with quite a few impressive, creative ideas to keep their doodles happy and busy. While I never recommend leaving your Goldendoodle inside of a crate all day long, I do believe crating is appropriate when you are unable to supervise your pet as long as the crate is the proper size and you limit the amount of time your doodle actually spends inside the crate". Dee further says, "Many people believe the tale that your crate should be small and therefore your doodle won't use the bathroom inside of the crate. That's not true at all. What will happen if you do not have the right sized crate, is your doodle will soil itself. Keeping your canine clean on a daily basis will then become problematic. Your Goldendoodle won't have a problem sleeping or hanging out in his or her crate if you provide their favorite toys and a soft cozy blanket for them to lay down on. Crating should always be a pleasant experience for your doodle."

Crating is best when your doodle can not be supervised and when you need to manage a situation. The Goldendoodle dog began to become popular in early 2000. Not much was known about this hybrid when Dee Gerrish began her breeding program and she says that's when she started writing about them. After all of these years, Dee has become a Goldendoodle expert in her own right. Years of writing about this beautiful dog; taking hundreds of photographs and documenting as much as possible, Dee says, "Just when I think I know everything there is to know about the Goldendoodle, something new happens to completely throw a monkey wrench into my wheel of knowledge! This breed is completely contradictory when it comes to applying what I knew as a purebred dog breeder. Everything I know at this present time, I had to learn from scratch! I love this dog! Despite so many naysayers calling this breed a "designer mutt" or other derogatory names, my Goldendoodles have far surpassed my expectations. They continue to impress even me and I'm their breeder! When I began my Goldendoodle program, I was a purebred dog fanatic. Never in my wildest dreams would I have considered mixing a Poodle with a Golden Retriever. But the day my very first litter was born, I was hooked."

The Goldendoodle hybrid is a wonderful dog for children of virtually all ages! Jennifer Rholinger of Matthews, North Carolina says, "Charlie is simply the best! I can't believe how much I love this dog! He's amazing and we love him, love him, love him!". Dee confirms that if you provide what your Goldendoodle needs; If you exercise them; love them; teach them that sometimes they need quiet time, this hybrid is the most wonderful family dog a family could ever ask for. The Goldendoodle comes in various colors. There are no rare colors and there are definitely no rare markings. Goldendoodles can have green eyes, blue eyes, brown eyes or multi colored eyes. Their eye color does not have any impact on how they see and light colored eyes present no problem for this hybrid.

If you have fallen in love with this wonderful canine, make sure you don't fall for the "non or never shedding" sales tactics that many breeders use. Goldendoodle dogs come in a wide range of sizes but because they are hybrids, their sizes are not categorized such as being "Miniatures, Toys, Standards, Giants" like purebred dogs. Many doodle dogs are never the same size as either parent. Their entire lineage plays a role in the size they become as an adult. Make sure you select a knowledgeable, experienced breeder. Dee Gerrish of Goldendoodle World began her breeding program in 1999. She's made it her business to know everything possible about this wonderful dog. If your looking for a doodle, check out her Goldendoodle World website.

Dee also has a wide variety of portal sites like http://www.igoldendoodle.com and http://goldendoodlesforsale.blogspot.com

Dee's Goldendoodle articles are very popular and as such, many websites across the net pick them up and run with them. Give her a call if you'd like a doodle!
