      I am impressed too! I’ve been looking for a repeatable Boston Terrier breeder in Upstate, NY and I haven’t found anyone. It’s so discouraging😔. I lost my Boston Terrier a little over a year ago to a ruptured gallbladder ( with surgery he only had a 25-50% chance of making it). I had to make the terrible decision to help him over the rainbow bridge. I miss him sO incredibly much! My house has been sO empty with out him.

    I have a sincere question that I hope does not come across as aggressive (I don't know a lot about the Doodle world). How is the $3,400 price tag justified for a mixed breed dog (essentially a mutt)? Are the parent poodles & goldens proven in any way like confirmation, hunting, agility, etc.? I willingly paid a pretty penny for my Aussies, but I am confused about doodles. You seem to be a very organized breeder, so I thought I would ask.

    • @DoodlesofNC
      @DoodlesofNC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Hey Jennifer! I don’t mind the comment at all. I think for doodles is about high quality genetics. Good health with their hips and elbows. But no it does not come with like backgrounds of AKC ribbons or other titles like purebreds. It is about demand and popularity also. Our price didn’t start at 3400. It started at 1500, 8 years ago. But now with the practices we do beginning potty training, crate training, ENS, and puppy culture it warrants the price for our families. When we started we only did health testing with paw print genetics. We’ve grown so much in our experience. Our families really appreciate it. I hope this answers! Enjoy your night.

      Money is the motivator, it's always the motivator. They say it's bc of the breed but it's money.
      Don't breed . adopt a homeless street dog or a dog from a shelter.
      This is not cute it's a insult to animal control that has to kill pets bc of overpopulation. Get your pets spay n neutered. There are not enough pet homes n animals are being killed because there is no more space. We cannot adopt our way out of the dog cat overpopulation.
      Do the animals n world a favor don't breed to kill.

      Have to agree. Even if the puppies are weaned, they need the socialization. Now a lot of new research suggests 10 weeks. At least you have another dog to socialize them and it gives the older dog a job.

    So as a standard poodle owner, I’m always baffled at comments like “why would you want 75 percent poodle?” Why wouldn’t you?? Our poodle is the best! She’s sweet, smart, chill (yes they can be very chill dogs), and incredibly graceful and beautiful. When puppy shopping, we met a doodle breeder who raved about their standard stud and we decided on a standard. Anyway, love your channel but had to respond to your comment about the amazing spoos.🙂🐩.

    Being respectful in telling these people who breed with NC Doodles are getting only $250 per puppy is not near enough. On the market is around $2,000 or more so be careful with this investment.

    • @DoodlesofNC
      @DoodlesofNC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      El Dorado Storage, Thanks for the comment. Our guardian families don't have any responsibilities with breeding. They are looking for a pet but enjoy and want to apart of our program. They are then matched with a puppy to raise, care and train for as its their goldendoodle to raise. Once we complete the genetic and health testing the goldendoodle visits us on their heat cycle to breed and then again for 6 weeks to have puppies. Once they are retired, up to four litters, the goldendoodle is spayed and the goldendoodle is the families forever pet. Hope this helps.

    Congrats to you for being such responsible, caring breeders. We have an F1b Goldendoodle that is almost 12, he has been the best companion! We decided 2 years ago to bring another dog into our home. Things have the most interesting way of working out!… After much research due to the retirement of our dogs breeder, we found a woman that started with Goldendoodles and knew our breeder, but had since shifted her lines to multigenerational Australian Labradoodles. Because of her 20+ years invested in her lines, we went with her, and have another fabulous personality, smart, excellent health super loving Doodle in our family! The work she does, like you all, of monitoring health, choosing your program’s dogs carefully and giving them a super start brings joy to SO many. Thank you for sharing your experiences with the TH-cam world. If it helps one more breeder to do a better job, it will be worth it!!

    I'm a groomer and dog trainer, and I have over 40 years of experience. You should be honest; Poodle Golden retriever mixes DO shed. Not as much as a Golden does, but yes they do lose coat. AND they grow massive amounts of coat that (easily) gets matted.
    If you want to breed and sell mixed "designer" dogs do so more honestly. It's not a breed, it's an expensive mutt. Cute, but a money-making mutt.
    Edit:
    OMG!! You guys do hip and elbow x-rays during the first heat cycle? First of all the hips should not be x-rayed at the time of the heat cycle as the hips (joints) can be too loose for a proper evaluation. Second, hips and elbows ARE NOT developed enough to be evaluated before the age of two years.
    Also OFA does NOT give a hip ratting before the age of two years, so it is a lie if you are telling people that you do OFA on a female before the age of two.
    Your Home is just a puppy mill. That is 100% correct.

    • @DoodlesofNC
      @DoodlesofNC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That’s a lot of thoughts! We don’t do their OFA’s during their cycles. Maybe a miscommunication. It says after their cycles. Preliminary results are valid - and penn hip is done anytime after 6 months. If we had a questionable score of course we would wait until they could do it again.
      Our f1b’s don’t shed. F1’s do. Which is what our Bella is. I also never said doodles were not mutts. We just love Goldendoodles and love their family friendly disposition. So thanks for sharing.

      Pepper I agree. Almost all breeder who offer a guardian program are millers. Do your research people. There are horror stories of the guardian programs. The reason millers turn to guardian homes is because there is limit on how many intact dogs you can have and this must be necessary to keep the ¼ and ¾ mix. They use this program to get around this and sometimes use it to make even more profit from the puppies. They are not the ones who are caring for the dog and raising it. Some of theses guardian contracts are outright scams. Doodles are not hypoallergenic and even poodles are not 100% hypoallergenic. Anyone who claims that they don’t shed at all is lying and doodles are harder to groom and maintain then the poodles. Even poodles will loose hair just like you loose hair naturally. The creator of the Goldendoodle regretted it. Responsible poodle breeders do not sell to doodle breeders. It likely the same with the Golden Retrievers. Especially full registration dogs. You typically have to co-own your first few with a breeder you have built a relationship with and title them. No Quality breeder of theses dogs will outright sell you a dog with breeding rights. They are often acquired from un-proven mediocre lines. Many people who have bought doodles came to regret it. You rarely get the best of the poodle and the best of the cross. This breeder is charging a high price for her puppies that has not participated in programs that mutts are allowed. Agility, rally, obedience…etc. There are plenty of red flags here.

    I have a question, what is the best age to stud a male dog? My family and I decided to breed our labrador but we're not exactly sure when is a time to stud him some say it's okay at 9-11 months, others say it's best to wait until to 1-2 years old and it got us very confused

      They are fertile around 9 months old. As long as their testing has come back great - I don’t see the problem with it.

    I have had American Bulldogs for the last 10 years. Last year, the breeder contacted me and said he had a male that he’d like me to take, and requested “access” to him for breeding. Do I charge? Would that be rude? If I was to charge, what fee is correct?😬

      @@DoodlesofNC hello! ☺️. No, I just paid “half price” for him. I brought him home at 7 weeks and he turned one in October. He contacted me last week and said someone was bringing him a female and he wanted to pair her with Walter. I bought my female from the breeders parents 10 years ago, and he took over their kennel. We didn’t sign a contract other than the standard one the kennel has when a puppy is purchased. Thank you so so much for your advice, I really appreciate it!

      Most breeders don't care about the dogs' age and physical state as long as they can start reliably pumping money out of them. They will absolutely breed 6-8 month old dogs that aren't even teenagers yet. It's like getting a 12-year-old pregnant.
      Ethical breeders would wait until the dog is at least 2 years old.

      @@DoodlesofNC Holy crap, with millions of dogs being put down in this country every single year you're breeding 14 dogs?!?! And each one can have 3-10 puppies per litter?? At least twice a year??
      So you're churning out hundreds of dogs a year and capitalizing off the "cute looks" market and lying to yourself by pretending not a single one of these dogs will end up neglected and abandoned and put down before it's 5 years old.
      I think the Guardian program is a great concept for keeping down your in-house costs, sanitation, and chaos, but the only difference between this and a backyard puppy mill is that you're very ethical and intelligent about it.
      That's an absolutely irresponsible amount of dogs to breed. It's gross.
