The Biggest Mistake Labradoodle Owners Commit -Not Paying Enough Attention To Their Labradoodles Int

Congratulations! You've decided you want to welcome a Labradoodle into your home. Labradoodles are a popular dog today, because they're very intelligent, playful, and depending on the Labradoodle, allergy-friendly dogs. Labradoodles have oodles of energy and boast an entertaining personality. However, have you honestly asked yourself "Am I ready?" Labradoodles aren't your typical dog breed. Beginning as a cross between a standard Poodle and a Labrador Retriever, Labradoodles are very smart and highly social dogs. You could even say Labradoodles are "high maintenance" if not intellectually stimulated and properly trained. So, are you ready to pour your heart into nurturing this puppy love? You're off to a good start researching the breed and the responsibility of owning a Labradoodle. This article offers you some useful information to consider. And by the time you're through, you should know if you're ready to make the commitment to care for and love a new Labradoodle puppy. I would suggest keeping in mind Beverley Manners of Rutland Manors response when I asked her what she thought was the worst trait of Labradoodles. "Definitely their incredible intelligence. Many people think they want a super intelligent dog, but what they don't realize is, the more intelligent the dog, the more vital it is consistent early training is given. An intelligent Labradoodle, who's given nothing to challenge its superior intellect, soon becomes an attention-seeking, defiant brat! It's important for anyone considering a Labradoodle to be prepared to put the work in and commit to spending the time properly training his or her puppy, from day one, throughout the first year. Labradoodle breeder Michael Waggenbach of Sunshine Acres whole-heartedly agrees, "It's really the environment they go into that determines the kind of Labradoodle they're ultimately going to grow up to be. People often ask me 'How are you going to know the kind of Labradoodle you're going have?' Well you don't. You, the owner, are the one who's going to determine what kind of dog you ultimately have. If it flops, it's really the owners fault." Michael also echoes Beverley Manner's thoughts regarding the high intelligence of these wonderful dogs. "The Labradoodles high intelligence can lead to boredom. If they're not challenged, that boredom makes for trouble. So I usually tell people, if you're going to have a great Labradoodle, you have to keep them challenged. You can't just let them stay home by themselves all day in a crate and expect them to behave themselves, because they're going to figure out ways to get your attention a lot quicker than another dog would!"
