| Most important ''LOVING your Doodle-Dog''
One of the healthiest things you can do for your puppy is give him lots of love and attention lots of attention . Dogs are extremely loyal by nature and are happy when they please you. Their ancestors, wolves, ran in packs so understand that puppy can get lonely if you don't spend enough time with them. Studies show that emotionally, dogs benefit from being petted by humans as mush as humans do from petting dogs. So spend time with your little companion. Play, talk, pet and love and you'll both be happier and healthier. Here are some things you can do to help your Labradoodle pup feel as comfortable as possible. Teach children not to be rough with puppy: no pulling ears, whiskers or tail Act calm, not too rowdy Provide a soft ,warm bed place close to you or family member Give puppy a soft chewing toy or bone Always have a drinking water available Feeding your Labradoodle at first it's important to feed your puppy (some of ) the same thing he was eating before you brought him home. Many commercial foods are acceptable but be sure to choose a well-balanced one (without to much or no corn meal).
Safety For Doodle Puppy Keep electrical cords out of chewing reach. Keep garbage cans and household chemicals secured away of puppy. Keep chocolate away from puppy because it is toxic to dogs and can kill them. When traveling with your Labradoodle in car - never put a leash on puppy then tie the leash to something to secure it because may be choked if the car stops suddenly. Never leave your Labradoodle alone in a closed-up car on a hot day for any amount of time. IDENTIFICATION TAG and micro chip tag immediately have an ID tag made for your Labradoodle.

For more info see my "Dog Care Library" pages Bathing You'll only need to bathe your Labradoodle if he's dirty or smelly; bathing too often can cause dry skin . It helps to brush doodle's coat before bath. Use a proper dog shampoo, or gentle people shampoo, lukewarm water and gently scrub from head to tail taking care not to get soap or water in eyes or ears. Rinse thoroughly and stand back - doodle will shake and shake! Dry with a towel or hairdryer (not too hot ) but dont let your puppy get cold. Grooming Brushing or combing (with a wide tooth comb) your labradoodle regularly keeps his coat looking nice and it feels good to your doodle. And just as important, this is time for you puppy to bond. See "Facts about Coats" for more info You may trim ( or have a groomer ) your doodle hair just a little just around the eyes a month. |
