All breeds of Labrador Retrievers are known for being kind and gentle — and this trait runs especially strong with the chocolate-colored sweeties. While these dogs are very friendly to strangers, they have even more affection to give to their beloved families. Your Chocolate Lab puppy or adult will be happiest spending time with their favorite people. If you have young children, a lab is a great fit, as this breed is usually quite tolerant of the horseplay of small children who are still learning how to interact with pets. Just like many people, Chocolate Labs enjoy both downtime — especially if it involves being pampered by their family — and active high-energy fun. We recommend daily exercise, which can include anything from fetch, to tag, or even frisbee games. The average Chocolate Lab lifespan is between 9 and 11 years. The most common Chocolate Lab health problem is hip dysplasia, which occurs more commonly in older and overweight dogs. This is just one of the reasons to make exercise a common part of your time with a Chocolate Lab puppy or fully grown adult. Another problem that occurs in overweight labs is joint and movement issues. The other most common Chocolate Lab health problems are: Progressive Retinal Atrophy Cataracts Elbow Dysplasia As is the case with any dog, when you bring home a Chocolate Labrador, make sure that you have a good vet to handle routing vaccinations and check-ups as well as emergency health problems. Learn more about the Keystone Puppies Health Guarantee! Chocolate Lab Coat Care In general, Chocolate Lab coat care is easy compared to many other dog breeds which require weekly or daily work. Labrador Retrievers all have double coats, which includes an under layer of short hairs and a slightly longer top layer. This coat is useful for repelling water and keeping them cool in warmer temperatures — and warm in cooler ones. Their coat is also noted to be slightly dry and oily. Chocolate Lab coat care is fairly minimal and considered low maintenance. The coat should be brushed with a firm bristle brush 2 — 3 times per month to minimize shedding. In addition to that, baths are needed fairly infrequently. What is more crucial is ensuring that their toenails are well cared for throughout the year. Meet Chocolate Lab Puppies for Sale.

This one-stop shop shampoo and conditioner is from the renowned Earthbath who make great all natural pet products. Ingredients: The Mango-Tango is made up of purified water alongside a variety of plant-derived cleansers and conditioners. It contains aloe vera, Vitamins A, B, D and E, as well as glycerine, natural preservatives and mango essence. The mango scent is really refreshing. It lathers and rinses out easily. Why we recommend it: Again, you can always feel confident with Earthbath products and that you are using all-natural ingredients and there is nothing in the formula that might be harmful to your dog. And it still works! Why Use Dog Shampoo Products? There are 2 major reasons to avoid using human shampoo on your dog: Skin pH levels: Human shampoo tends to be marginally acidic in order to best clean our skin, which has a pH somewhere between 5. Dogs, on the other hand, have an alkaline skin pH of up to 7. Sensitive skin: Dogs are generally much more sensitive than humans as their skin only has between layers, in comparison to humans with layers. As such, our skin can take more of a battering from harsh products and chemicals while your dog will be more easily irritated. Such irritation leads to dryness, scratching and abrasions. If you do have to bathe your dog with human products — perhaps in a particularly smelly emergency with no pet products at hand — try to opt for mild formulations used on babies and children. This means asking what kind of coat they have, and what kind of additional care their skin and coat might need. Do they have a short coat, long coat, a double coat? Is it dry or oily? Dogs with short coats often just need a shampoo, while long hair and double coats benefit from conditioner to help with detangling and repair after brushing. But at the same time, if your dog has an oily coat, you will want to skip the conditioner as it will just exacerbate the problem. How is their skin? Is it sensitive, prone to allergies, already red and sore due to other problems? If your dog has sensitive skin, you are going to want to avoid products that may exacerbate the problem and maybe go for a hypoallergenic shampoo. You may also want to look for products with soothing ingredients for the skin, such as oatmeal or Aloe Vera. You may then also want to look for products that might help with any ongoing issues your pup has. Do they shed a lot? Some shampoos can help with that. Do they often get fleas? You can get shampoos that also have repelling qualities. Do they have a particular problem with body odor? There are shampoos out there that specialize in deodorizing. For an overview of Labrador grooming needs, check out our complete guide. Once you determine what kind of shampoo you need, you can then look at the products themselves. There are a few key characteristics to look out for. Characteristics Of Good Dog Shampoos And Conditioners pH Level The skin and hair of dogs have a neutral pH level, and so as not to cause damage to their coat, their shampoo and conditioner should also have a neutral pH. Look for shampoos that have a pH level near 7, which is neutral. For that reason, good dog shampoos should work to neutralize odors rather than simply mask smells with fragrances. You will know if your dog is not a fan of the smell of their shampoo or conditioner if they like to rub against things a lot after bathing. This is them trying to rub off the unwelcome smell. Natural Ingredients Just as it is true for humans, harsh chemicals absorbed through the skin can harm dogs. Dangerous chemicals should be avoided by choosing products made from all-natural ingredients. Key ingredients to avoid include phthalates, formaldehyde, isothiazolinones, and nitrosamines. Skin-Protecting Additives Just as you can buy shampoos and skin cleansers that promise to hydrate your skin and keep it looking fresh, dog shampoos will often include skin-protecting additives such as oatmeal, Aloe Vera, or vitamin E that is designed to moisturize skin and keep coats shiny. Medicated Shampoos If your dog has specific skin conditions, there may be a shampoo out there specially formulated to help. Identifying these usually requires consultation with your vet. Look out for shampoos that can help with parasitic or fungal infections, skin allergies, or seborrhea. Medicated shampoos are much more likely to include unnatural ingredients than standard shampoos, for good reason. They need these ingredients to do their job effectively. But there are a few ingredients to be wary of in particular, avoid anything that contains alcohol, as it can sting the skin and eyes. If you are looking for a medicated shampoo for fleas, check out our list of the seven best dog flea shampoos. The open hair follicles can also allow oils to escape and let contaminants enter the follicle, again, compromising their strength and integrity. Conditioner seals the hair follicles, locking in oils and protecting the hair from breakages. But whether your dog really needs conditioner depends on their coat. However, it is probably best to avoid conditioners for dogs with oily coats, as it can just make them even more oily and unpleasant to touch. Dogs with long coats and double coats that require a lot of grooming benefit from the use of a conditioner. When choosing a conditioner, you should look for similar characteristics to a shampoo: Neutral pH balance All-natural ingredients and no chemicals or additives Fragrance-free or only lightly fragranced. Bathing Your Dog Bath time with your four-legged friend is not just about choosing the right product; it is also about using it correctly. This means washing your dog with the correct frequency and in just the right way. How often you need to bathe your dog will vary from breed to breed and also depends on their individual lifestyle and habits. If your dog gets smelly in between full shampoo baths, opt for a simple plain water rinse in between. Dogs that spend more time indoors and rarely get dirty will require less regular baths. Depending on how smelly they get, a bath somewhere between every 2 to 3 months would be about right. Double-coated breeds, such as Labs, should really only be bathed every three months — or even less often — unless they get particularly smelly. Their oily double coats will dry out from too much shampooing, depleting the insulating, protective properties and waterproofing their coat has. Just as with humans, shampooing too often has a tendency to dry out the skin and hair, leading to irritation, scratching and in extreme cases maybe even lesions. The best way to prolong time between baths and keep your dog looking healthy and clean is to commit to a daily brushing schedule. Unlike humans who breathe in allergens, dogs absorb them through their skin. This can lead to irritation, scratching and eventually — in extreme cases — lesions. Tips For How to Bathe Your Dog You could just carelessly bundle your pooch into the bath, get them wet, lather, rinse and repeat. But of course, the best results come with a little planning. Before bathing, brush your dog to remove any tangles and debris caught in their hair. Prepare the room for bath time by assembling products ready to use, laying down towels or waterproof sheets and keeping treats on hand to reward good behavior. If they need to be restrained, use a muzzle or a specialist bathing tether. Introduce them to the water slowly by spraying their backs first and keeping the power on low, allowing them to get used to the sensation. Use a soft brush in the direction of hair growth to best lather in the shampoo and avoid any tangles. Use the brush again to gently clean the paw pads. Rinse thoroughly by wetting the head and face first before working your way down the rest of their body. Keep rinsing until the water runs clear. At this point, some owners choose to use a specialist dog conditioner to seal the hair cuticle and keep the coat shiny and full of moisture. Once all shampoo and conditioners have been washed out, lift your dog out of the bath and wrap them in an absorbent towel. Avoid rubbing them dry as this can tangle their hair; blot the coat instead. They will probably want to shake themselves dry too. Make sure your dog stays in the warm until they are completely dry. The best shampoo and conditioner for your dog depends on the type of coat and skin that they have. For example, short-haired dogs with a relatively oily coat will do best with a standard shampoo, while dogs with long hair that needs a lot of brushing benefit from a conditioner. Dogs with sensitive skin can benefit from a hypoallergenic formula, while dogs that spend a lot of time in the great outdoors need a heavy-duty formula. But whichever shampoo you go for, try to choose something all natural that does not include any chemicals or additives that might hurt your dog. Earthbath does a wide range of shampoos and conditioners made from all-natural ingredients. They are gentle products ideal for most dogs, but you might want something stronger when dealing with a very dirty pooch. This is because the pH level of human hair and skin and dog skin and hair is different. Dogs are neutral while humans are acidic. This is why it is better to use a special dog shampoo, which has a neutral pH ideal for dogs. While it is preferable to use dog shampoo on dogs rather than any variety of human shampoo, baby shampoo is safe for dogs. It is fine to use human shampoo on your dog as a one-off, though make sure it does not get into their eyes. How often you should wash your dog depends on both their breed and their lifestyle. Dogs with longer hair are more likely to trap dirt and debris in their coat, and outdoor dogs need bathing more often than indoor dogs. As a general rule of thumb, consider bathing your dog every four to six weeks. It is only necessary to use a small amount of shampoo when bathing your dog, as the lathering effect allows it to expand and cover your dog completely. If you use excess shampoo, it can be difficult to thoroughly rinse. Exactly how much depends on the size of your dog and the thickness of their coat. Start with a small amount and add more as needed. Final Thoughts While the right shampoo and conditioner for your dog depends on them — their breed, type of coat, skin condition, and sensitivities — just remember that the right shampoo for them is not your shampoo! Dogs have very different needs, which is why they have their own products. It can also be nice to choose something that contains natural skin-soothing products such as oatmeal and Aloe Vera. All of their products are all-natural and designed to be gentle enough for frequent use.

Predicting the appearance of a bulldach pup is tough. There are various possibilities for their build and features. They normally have an average height of 11 to 12 inches. Meanwhile, they should weigh around 30 to 40 pounds. Available colors are brindle, fawn, black, brown, cream, and isabella. Bulldach dogs have an unknown origin. These dogs have an average lifespan of 10 to 14 years. Grooming is not an issue with these dogs. They are very low maintenance. Bulldach pups are affectionate but brave. These dogs are affectionate and people-oriented. But they can be snappy when something is taken from them. Will they get the iconic long body of a dachshund? Or will they have a flat snout like a bulldog? That may be the reason why bulldachs are often smaller than a bulldog. But they are taller than dachshunds. Normally, a bulldach has a height of 11 to 12 inches for both male and female dogs. They also have a general weight of 30 to 40 pounds. Looking at the numbers, their build is similar to the muscular bulldogs. Fur and Coat The color of your bulldach will depend on the color of its parents. But color possibilities include brindle, fawn, black, isabella, cream, or black. Bulldach dogs also have a short, straight coat. The same goes for the bulldach. Its point of origin and the reason why it was bred remains unknown. They were used to bait and fight bulls, and spectators would bet the outcome. When the sport was banned and ultimately became obsolete, the bulldogs faced extinction. Luckily, fans of the breed transformed the fighting dogs. It was a long process, but they ultimately bred a companion dog. Thus, the English bulldog was born. The dog was soon after recognized by AKC. Dachshund The dachshund breed originated from Germany years ago. Indeed, these dogs were used to assist men to hunt ferocious badgers. It has a loud bark that alerts the men above ground. The breed rose to fame soon after in the US. Trainability Both the English bulldog and the dachshund are stubborn breeds. They like doing things their own way. After all, you need to have experience training a dog. Once you learn the methods to train them effectively, your dog can learn fast. These dogs also tend to be aggressive. Socialization training will be handy. Bring them to a dog park regularly so they can familiarize themselves with strangers. Walk or jog with them for around 30 minutes every day. Additionally, keep them mentally sharp. Toy dogs with puzzles and obstacles can help do that. But it can inherit both the negative and positive traits of its parents. In general, bulldach dogs are brave. They are very independent and have no problems doing what they want. Yet, these dogs are also very affectionate, especially towards their family. They are great family pets as they are people-oriented. But you also have to be more careful with this trait. Being too close to the family may cause separation anxiety. This protectiveness of their possessions may also cause snappiness. Nutrition Dogs need proper nutrition. Feed your bulldach with protein-rich and high-quality kibbles. The protein source should be the first ingredient on the list. But you should ask the vet for the most suitable plan. Normally, though, a bulldach will need one cup of dog food per day, split into two meals. Besides food, be sure that your dog has access to clean water. Health and Care A bulldach dog has an average lifespan of 10 to 14 years. However, they can go beyond that if taken proper care of. Ensure that both parents are in perfect health, or the pups will inherit their illnesses. Read the back or the side of the dog food bag as there are guidelines that can help you to determine the proper amount to feed your dog. Bulldogs tend not to be terribly active, so keep in mind that your Bulldach might be susceptible to gaining weight. Therefore, be careful with how much you feed her and go easy on the treats you give her every day. Consult your veterinarian if you ever have concerns regarding her health or weight. If your Bulldach takes on the long body of her Dachshund parent, you need to be aware that there are certain exercises that could damage her back, such as jumping onto hard surfaces. The Bulldog is sweet but not terribly smart, and the Dachshund can be independent and stubborn, so when you combine these traits into one dog, you might just have yourself a dog that is difficult to train. Very patient and consistent training with positive reinforcements should work, particularly when you start with them as young as possible. Brushing about once a week will suffice unless she inherits her coat from a long-haired or wire-haired Dachshund, which will need brushing several times a week. If she has facial wrinkles like her Bulldog parent, make sure you spend extra time cleaning her wrinkles and skin folds to avoid infections. Minor Conditions of the Bulldog Dry eye syndrome. Credit: Loooongboy What we said about the appearance can also be applied to the personality traits of the Bulldog and Dachshund mix. You can expect anything from a lazy pooch to a hyperactive hunter. Dachshunds are natural-born hunters with an instinct to catch prey, dig holes, and defend the territory. Bulldogs are chilled companions with a flair for tasty food and as much petting as possible. One common trait both breeds have is the devotion to their human friends. Whatever dominant character features your pup ends up with, one thing is certain—they will love you forever. To raise a well-behaved and happy dog, it is crucial to understand the importance of: Training Socialization Diet Only with the above in check, you can be sure that your pooch will have a long and fulfilled life. Training Your Bulldog Dachshund Mix Dogs need integration, socialization, and adequate training because it is the only way for them to feel secure and to function well in the community. The same goes for Bulldachs. Bulldogs are joyous companions and quite easily taught manners. The only trouble you may have with these adorable pups is that they are too lazy to bother and prefer just lying around nibbling on something delicious. If you need help, check out the best training tips for duchshund. Dachshunds may be trickier to handle because they are strong-willed, independent individuals. The inclination to be territorial is one of their common traits, so you need to establish your role as a pack leader right from the beginning. Badger Dogs are vocal about their feelings, so you will have to go the extra mile in training to make them feel secure. Otherwise, they can turn into heavy bankers. The good news is that both breeds are friendly with people and highly intelligent. Though learning can be a struggle, once they adopt a command, it stays with them for good. The quick temper of the Dachshund may need supervision when your baby is in the company of other dogs or children. If you have a puppy, stick to the best ways to train them. One of the best ways to train your puppy is with treats, gifts , and rewards. Dogs tend to do crazy things when they know a special treat is in store. Because of the potential obesity issues, try to stick with high-quality products and avoid these worst dog treat brands. It is vital to start training at an early age. Persistence and patience are essential, and you will need a lot of both. For better results, you may want to get one of the best dog training collars. If you commit to the training, your Bulldach will turn into a wonderful friend, and you should have no problems with them later on. Credit: yukik Socialization — How to Make your Bulldach Friendly This is one of the most important aspects of training, and you should dedicate yourself to it. If not properly socialized, Bulldachs can become challenging to handle, and they will not feel safe or happy. Right from the start, you should allow your pup to: Mingle with other dogs Interact with different people Explore new surroundings These simple activities will help them develop trust and confidence, and they will grow up to be friendly amiable pets. Posing yourself as an authority during the process is a must. That way, you can control any possible disputes and prevent accidents or quarrels. When they are still puppies, these cross breeders may gravitate towards a faster lifestyle, as they age they will probably manifest their lazier features. In other words, Bulldach does not require too much exercise. Still, you will need to give them at least half an hour of walking or playing every day to keep them calm and happy.

Recently, breeders combined the spunky attitude of the dachshund and the calm and brave demeanour of the bulldog in the Dachshund Bulldog Mix. In this article, you are going to learn all the basics you need to know about this unique crossbreed. The Dachshund Bulldog Mix might not seem like a natural cross at first, but once you hear about the complimenting traits, you will see the appeal! What is a Dachshund Bulldog mix? The short answer about what is the Dachshund Bulldog Mix would be that it is the result of crossbreeding between the bulldog and the dachshund. However, to truly understand the characteristics of this mix, you need to understand the parental breeds that go into it. Just like human children, different traits from both parents go into offsprings. Dachshund Parental Breed The dachshund otherwise called as teckel, dackel, or wiener dog is a breed that has been around for centuries. Weiner dogs originated in Germany. It will come as no surprise then that the dachshund is part of the hound group and is known for being bred for hunting. Currently, if you check with the American Kennel Club , you will see that the dachshund is the 12th most popular dog breed in the United States. They have prominent personalities despite their small size, so it is not surprising, sausage dogs are adored all around the world. Bulldog Parental Breed The bulldog, also called the British bulldog, currently ranks even higher on the AKC popularity list, coming in at the 5th most popular breed. The image of a fierce, muscular dog has been used for many groups and causes. You also commonly see the bulldog depicted as a mascot for the United States Marine Corps. This use of imagery is a testament to the toughness and loyalty of the breed. Breed experts believe that Bulldogs first became a real breed in England around the 13th century. At the time, blood sport was popular, so these mighty dogs were bred for the bull-baiting. Thankfully blood sport is not a popular pastime today, and Bulldogs became great family dogs. This cross is also a confident and highly adaptable dog. You can also expect your Dachshund Bulldog mix to have an instinct for hunting and chasing animals, digging, burrowing. It will also be quite protective of their owners, and possibly a loud barker. On the downside, this crossbreed can be stubborn and grumpy due to the fact that both parents have these character traits in their blood. Dachshund Bulldog Mix Physical Appearance As with many crossbreeds, the appearance of the Dachshund Bulldog Mix can vary from one individual cross to the next. However, as this mix is bred more consistently, it is easier to pick out traits that are happening more often and refine them. So once more, we should first look at the parent breeds of the Dachshund Bulldog Mix as a guide for appearance. The offspring can take on any of the physical traits of parental breeds. They have a large head, with a very short muzzle. Bulldogs have deep dark eyes that are set further down and apart on their forehead then other breeds. The lower jaw will generally stick out from the lower one, giving them a distinct and cure grin. Bulldogs are built for power and work, so their bodies are sturdy and muscular. This position of the legs gives them a distinct walk. Bulldogs should stand around 16 inches and should way between Lbs, depending on the gender. Dachshund Physical Characteristics Dachshunds look very different from Bulldogs. The first thing to note is a definite weight difference. These spunky little dogs come in at between lbs. The second big difference is there are three types of dachshunds as compared to one bulldog variety. Dachshunds come in Smooth, Wired, and Long-haired coats. There are also two different sizes for sausage dogs, — Standard and Miniature. The most distinctive attribute of the dachshund is short legs and a long back. One of the cute nicknames for this breed comes from that long back, the Weiner dog. This breed should have short legs that bow slightly, and a long muzzle for hunting. On the other side, this mix will often get the deep-set dark eyes of the bulldog. Muzzle length is the area in which these crossbreeds tend to vary significantly. Some puppies will have a longer nose, and some will have the snub nose of the bulldog. As the breed is refining its traits; however, it is becoming more common to have a muzzle that is in-between the two kinds. As well as that, this mix comes in a variety of colours, that it can inherit from both parents. In the photo below, you see the beautiful dapple coat that can occur in the dachshund bulldog mix. Moreover, you should always remember that training goes into helping the character of any dog. So, make sure you pick for traits you would like, but also commit to properly socializing your new family member. Dachshunds are very spunky, outgoing little dogs. They have big hearts, and they will take on wild animals or other dogs that are much larger than they are. Teckels are incredibly loyal dogs, and this makes them fantastic for families. They are alert and make good watchdogs even though they are small. Dachshunds are super intelligent and can be stubborn, so you must be persistent with training them. These sweet, smart dogs can be destructive. They love to dig holes if left unattended. Bulldogs have lovely, gentle personalities. They are reliable dogs that you can depend on to be predictable. The breed has been bred to love to be around people. Bulldogs will go out of their way to get attention from their family. Bulldogs are fantastic with kids, and they get along with other animals. You do need to ensure that you socialize them with other dogs early. Some individual bulldogs can be aggressive to other dogs if not socialized. It is the brave heart of the bulldog and their desire to protect their family. The Bulldach is going to be a dog with a lot of love for their family. They are brave dogs, with a lot of courage and loyalty. Dachshund Bulldog mixes do need to be kept busy; otherwise, the Dachshund ingrained instinct of digging or burrowing may come out. Also, as mentioned earlier, the Dachshund Bulldog cross can display signs of aggressiveness and overprotectiveness. These inherited traits can become a problem if not tackled properly. As humans, we always want to know how long our new friend is likely to be with us. It is a little harder to determine the life expectancy of the Dachshund Bulldog mix because the parent breeds have entirely different life spans. Dachshunds are a smaller breed and tend to have a longer lifespan if kept healthy. These spunky dogs will live from 12 to 17 years. While Bulldogs as broader chested, short-nosed dogs tend towards a lifespan that is not as long. You will find that bulldogs tend to have a lifespan of years in general. Knowing the lifespan of the parent breeds can help in calculating how long your Bulldach will live. So far, most Dachshund Bulldog mixes tend to live years. Remember, the best way to keep your canine friend healthy is to have regular checkups with your vet. The best way to help your dachshund live longer? Watch our video to find out!

The Golden Retriever has been an AKC-recognized breed since and was commonly used as a gun dog and for retrieving small game such as waterfowl, and for companionship. The Golden Retriever originated in the Scottish Highlands. The first Lord Tweedmouth, Dudley Majoribanks, is credited with developing the breed and keeping detailed records to create the ideal gun dog for the terrain. Great discipline and a gentle spirit make the Golden Retriever a perfect retrieval breed since the goal of this task is to bring the trophy back as undamaged as possible. Golden Retrievers first appeared in dog shows in at a British dog show. They also started appearing in the United States around the same time as they were brought across the Canadian border. They gained popularity with sport hunters and in general. Their popularity really took off in the s and they are consistently one of the most popular dog breeds. If you are not the sporting type, bringing a Golden Retriever into your family as a pet is just as rewarding because they are one of the most loyal and jovial breeds out there. One of the facts about Golden Retrievers is that they are the epitome of friendly and make fantastic family dogs. Golden Retrievers are considered one of the friendliest dog breeds. They tend to be good with kids, other dogs, other pets, and even strangers. Goldens love attention and they bond closely with their families. They are affectionate with them, and also just about everyone else. Although they do tend to get along with everyone, they love being around their favorite humans the most. They will bark to alert you and can end up barking a lot if you do not train your dog to stop barking early on. Golden Retrievers are highly adaptable dogs. They thrive in homes with yards where they can run. They can also adapt to apartment living as long as they get enough daily exercise, mental stimulation, and attention. These dogs do well in just about any climate, but are sensitive to heat. As one of the most affectionate dog breeds , they are not at all happy about being left alone for long periods of time. Although super-friendly and attention-loving, Goldens can also be sensitive to their surroundings; make sure they feel included, but have a quiet place to go if things get too noisy or overwhelming. Potential health concerns to be aware of in a Golden Retriever include progressive retinal atrophy, cataracts, elbow dysplasia , and hip dysplasia. Good breeding practices make a big difference in the health of puppies. Reputable breeders screen their dogs to avoid passing preventable issues to puppies. So, make sure you ask about the health and genetic history of the parents. You can also ask about any health tests or clearances that have been done. Goldens are considered one of the best dog breeds for first-time owners. They are highly trainable dogs that pick up on things quickly and are eager to please. These traits make them a good fit for owners of all experience levels. It also helps them excel at obedience competitions. As one of the smartest dog breeds , Golden Retrievers can get bored easily. Because they pick up things quickly, they can get bored with too much repetition in training. If your dog has mastered the command, move on to something more advanced or another activity. You can also enroll in puppy training classes for some variety in training and also some socialization. Golden Retrievers have a long double coat that will shed a little year-round and will be heavier twice a year as the seasons change. Brushing a few times a week and daily brushing during seasonal shedding along with a bath as needed is usually enough for at-home care. You will want to go to the dog groomer for a professional trim a few times a year, especially as the seasons change. Nail trims once or twice monthly keep nails from growing too long. Daily tooth brushing, along with cleanings at the vet when needed, is ideal. Golden Retrievers are one of the most active dog breeds. Daily walks plus some playtime, time to run, and other activities are usually enough to keep these dogs happy and healthy. But, they are high-energy dogs that will likely always be up for more activity if you are. Much like the Labrador , they also tend to have an extended puppyhood. They tend to start winding down a little around the age of 3 and settle into your lifestyle, but they will still be high-energy dogs that require a lot of daily activity. Goldens are known for being versatile and athletic dogs. They tend to love swimming. Once they are done growing and the vet clears them for higher-impact activities, you can try other things too. They are one of the dog breeds that make good running partners. You can also teach them how to play frisbee or play fetch. Training for dog sports is another good option. In addition to obedience, Golden Retrievers are well suited for agility, dock diving , rally, flyball, tracking, and more. Fully-grown Golden Retrievers usually stand inches tall and weigh pounds. Golden Retrievers generally live for years on average. With their intelligence, eagerness to please, and gentle disposition, Golden Retrievers are versatile working dogs. In addition to being one of the dog breeds that make the best service dogs , Goldens can be found working as emotional support dogs, certified therapy dogs, search and rescue dogs, military dogs, police dogs, animal actors, and more.

FAQ Here are a few of the most common questions that we receive on this subject. The simple answer to this question is no. A single book or even a whole shelf of them will not be helpful unless you learn how to apply their lessons in a practical way. At the same time, books can provide you with a lot of helpful information to aid in your practical learning. Dog-related experience is often not as well-documented as other kinds of experience, so you will have to judge by the content alone. You want to make sure that your chosen book covers all the relevant subjects. If there is a lot of generalized statements without any specific info, that is a red flag. A good dog training book should cover as wide a variety of situations as possible, and that is how you can tell that the author has experience. You should also be on the lookout for statements that you know to be false. Some people prefer to zip through a book like this, coming back later to review its lessons. Some others prefer to take their time and fully absorb the lessons of each chapter before moving to the next. In most cases, this is just a matter of personal preference. The only advice we can offer here is to read and learn at a pace that feels natural to you. Unfortunately, these sorts of books are not always written by qualified experts. For this purpose, we want to give you some general information about German Shepherds. This is meant to serve as a comparison point so that you can tell a well-informed author from a poser. As such, we will be limiting ourselves to those facts upon which most experts agree. We can see that a dog of this kind should stand about inches tall if male and inches if female. Other kennel clubs might have slightly different standards, but an expert should at least be within the ballpark. When it comes to weight, the story is very similar. Males should be between pounds while females range from pounds. It is also worth noting that a purebred German Shepherd must have a black nose. Any other color will be disqualified. All-white coloration, cropped ears, floppy ears, and docked tails are also considered to be non-German Shepherd traits. Behavior This factor is a little bit harder to evaluate because it will vary among individuals quite a bit. Still, all German Shepherds tend to exhibit common behavior patterns , and an expert will surely know these patterns. The most common of these is a mixture of fearlessness and calm. This breed is not normally known for aggression, but they are not the kind of dog to slink away in fear when you yell at them, either. The German Shepherd also tends to be a little bit more aloof. It can take a little longer to create a bond of friendship with a German Shepherd , but the effort is well worth making. That brings us to another essential behavioral quality of the German Shepherd: A firm determination to protect their master and pack. The AKC breed standards that we looked at earlier should be helpful again. On the subject of temperament, this breed is supposed to be outgoing and energetic. Timidity or nervousness are not considered to be typical of the breed, and can even cause disqualification at a dog show. Of course, excessive aggression is also a disqualifier. Breed History According to most sources, the German Shepherd dog has existed in Germany for many centuries. By crossing the different breeds of working dogs that were common in the northern and central parts of the country, Von Stephanitz and his peers may have achieved this goal. Technically, the first German Shepherd was a dog named Horand. Stephanitz found this remarkable animal at a dog show and found him to be the perfect example. Horand, then known as Hektor, had the exact mix of intelligence, loyalty , strength, and tenacity that Stephanitz wanted. As such, he was bred to the finest stock including several wolf mixes and produced the breed that we know today. Grooming Grooming helps to make any dog a little happier. The German Shepherd has a double coat, which means that they have two layers of fur. Thankfully, they are still somewhat easy to brush. About 30 minutes to an hour per week is enough to do the job. These dogs tend to shed a lot, and that will make frequent grooming less necessary. One bath every months is sufficient. One task that is very important is nail trimming. Any expert on the breed should mention this task, as it has to be done often. This breed will tend to grow extremely long nails without regular trimming, and that is very uncomfortable for the dog. Ear cleaning is also more important for this breed due to the fact that their ears stand erect. It is easier for dirt and debris to get into those canals, so give them a gentle swab with a Q-tip at grooming time.

Still, a little bit of homework can make the choice an easy one. So, which one of these books is the best? We cannot really say.

Should a Lab Mix take after their Labrador Retriever parent, they will be a playful, energetic, and affectionate dog that loves their families. Labrador Retrievers are energetic dogs that tend to have an extended puppyhood. They are also social, friendly, and tend to be patient and gentle with children. This makes them fantastic pets as they also tend to get along well with other dogs and even other pets, despite their retriever tendencies. If the other parent breed has a similar temperament, then you can expect the same from a Labrador Retriever Mix. You still want to ask questions about the other parent breed as they are bound to introduce some potential quirks of their own. Although Labs are happiest with room to run, they adapt well to apartments as long as they get enough exercise, mental stimulation, and affection. They also do well in most climates, but do not like to spend long stretches of time alone. If the other parent breed is also highly adaptable, then you can expect the same from a Labrador Retriever Mix. Are mixed-breed dogs healthier than purebred dogs? As with purebred dogs, health often depends on reputable breeding practices. Just as a mix can inherit none of the conditions common to their parent breeds, they could also inherit all of them or some combination of them. From the Labrador side, potential health concerns to be aware of in a Labrador Mix include patellar luxation , hip dysplasia, elbow dysplasia, and cataracts. The other parent breed will likely introduce some other potential conditions to this list. Reputable breeders screen their dogs to avoid passing preventable issues to puppies. You can also ask about any health tests or clearances that have been done. Labrador Retrievers are highly trainable dogs that can be a good fit for owners of any experience level. First-time owners may have a challenge at first with their high energy and exuberance, but tend to be successful. If the other parent breed is also highly trainable, then you can expect the same from a Labrador Retriever Mix. If the other parent breed tends to be more challenging to train, then you will want to be prepared for that potential and be ready to enroll in puppy training classes if you need them. A Lab Mix can end up with a coat similar to one of their parents or a coat that is truly a mix of both. Should they inherit the Labrador Retriever coat, it will be short and will shed throughout the year with heavier shedding as the seasons change. Weekly brushing and the occasional bath keep a Lab coat healthy. Trimming nails once or twice monthly keeps them from growing too long. Because dental care is often overlooked, gum disease is one of the most common health issues in dogs. Brushing teeth every day or using an enzyme toothpaste daily in addition to cleanings at the vet as needed helps prevent painful dental diseases later in life. Labrador Retrievers are high-energy working dogs that need plenty of exercise and a job to do to be happy. If the other parent breed is also a high-energy dog breed, then you should expect a Labrador Mix to be a high-energy dog as well. Even if the other parent breed sits in a lower activity range, you will still want to be prepared for the potential of a high-energy dog should they take after their Lab parent. Fully-grown Labrador Retrievers tend to stand inches tall and weigh pounds. The other parent can have a big effect on this, especially if they are the mother. Labs generally live for years. Although the other parent breed could affect this slightly, you should be able to expect a similar average life span from a Labrador Retriever Mix. Featured Labrador Mix Article. As my website states, I am not like other breeders in many ways. First, I want to explain how the average Labrador breeder raises their pups the first few weeks of their life. They expect these tiny pups without their senses fully developed to find their way to a nipple without being smothered. I understand that this is what dogs do in the wild, but this is also why many puppies die in the wild. .Then, on top of that they hope that each of the pups will get enough milk on it's own to make it through the 1st week of life. They expect the Lab mom to do all the work, so they don't have to lose a wink of sleep. This is all very sad to say but it's true. I, on the other hand, care about each individual pup's life, I care that each and every one of them survive so that they can live a full and happy life. So, I make sure that each individual pup is given outstanding care. How do I do this? I began with hand raising each one of my pups the first 3 weeks of its life. What do I mean by hand raise my pup? It means I personally make sure each individual pup is fed every 2 hours- 24 hours a day, the first 2 weeks of its life. At feeding time, I make sure each puppy gets on a nipple so they don't have to struggle to find one. I make sure that each puppy gets an adequate amount of milk. Then, once I see that they have been well fed. I pick up one pup at a time and have the mom lick it to go potty. And then I put them in their little crib to ensure they are safe and not smooth by the mother until the next feeding 2 hours later. At three weeks, we feed the pups every 4 hours. But at this point, even though the pups eyes and ears are open. I still supervise the feeding to ensure that each pup is adequately fed and again not smothered by it's mother. I believe in giving these pups outstanding care. Even if that means that I lose a lot of sleep, and even if it ends up just saving one pups life. That one pup could be the next Labrador that I get a testimony about how it brought so much joy into one person's life! So, in the end, all the work and lack of sleep is worth it. I am up now about to give my pups their 3 am feeding. Hope this helps you all understand what is put into each litter.

No appointments will be allowed at a younger age, except for the families that made a prior reservation. We will not allow our baby puppies to be exposed to potential life threatening viruses from people that are just "shopping". We wait until all puppies that have been reserved are safely home, before we show any left-over puppies. Any left-over pups will be at least 10 weeks of age before any viewings are allowed, to insure they have at least had 2 sets of shots in. The only other accommodation that we can offer is a zoom call, so you can see the pups before you make a reservation. Most of our sweet puppies are sold before they are even born.

They love their dogs and show commitment to the betterment of the breed in everything they do. But how can you spot reputable breeders when you start searching for a Pug puppy? Here are some tips to help you out. A good breeder will… 1. Issue a health guarantee Make sure that your breeder of choice offers a health guarantee. A reputable Pug breeder will write up a binding health guarantee for all of their puppies. The guarantee protects you against any genetic defects or diseases. It shows that the breeder is confident that their puppies are bred according to best practices. This means if you can no longer look after your pup for some reason, you will be expected to return the puppy to the breeder rather than taking them to a shelter. Provide standard health clearances Your breeder should have full health clearances for both parent Pugs. Good breeders often provide some early health-check clearances for their pups too, although some health clearances simply cannot be carried on such young pups. Issue a written bill of sale Reputable breeders offer written bills of sale to all of their new Pug parents. This bill of sale should be signed and will outline all the roles and responsibilities to be taken on by the buyer and seller as part of the transaction. Vaccinate their puppies All puppies should be up to date on their vaccinations before being homed with new families. Your breeder of choice should be able to provide evidence of these vaccinations. Reputable breeders welcome prospective parents into their homes to see the puppies. Follow age guidelines Puppies should never leave the litter before 8 weeks of age. Any breeder offering pups for adoption before this time is not following best practices. In fact, this could be quite damaging for the puppy developmentally. A reputable breeder will keep their pups at home until eight to twelve weeks so that they can be properly socialized and spend that crucial time with their mother and litter-mates. Answer your questions Last, but not least, a reputable breeder will be knowledgeable. In most cases, they will also want to ask you plenty of questions to ensure that their precious pups are going to good homes. We have a strict selection process that takes a variety of factors into account. That way we can ensure that only the best breeders end up on our lists. This way we know that our chosen breeders offer genetically sound and healthy puppies. Health testing shows a commitment to the health and wellbeing of each Pug. Contact information Any breeder that does not offer up their contact information is a big red flag. A reputable breeder will make it easy for you to get in contact with them by providing telephone numbers, email addresses, and they will usually have a well-established website as well. It shows a commitment to breeding best practices. Event participation Breeders who also compete in doggie events are often some of the best. Because these people tend to be dog lovers par excellence. They live and breathe for their Pugs and are proud to show them off in public. They are also more likely to have a high level of breed knowledge — an excellent sign for a breeder. Breed club membership There are lots of breed clubs out there that breeders can register with. These clubs have rules, regulations, and membership fees. If your breeder is registered with the Pug Dog Club of America, this is a great sign showing commitment to the Pug breed. Recognition awards Lastly, we look out for awards! Institutions like the AKC recognize the efforts and achievements of top breeders. The very best will be awarded the AKC recognition of merit award. During this time we recommend getting everything ready before your new arrival rattles through the front door. Your puppy will need: a crate for sleeping and training during the early days quality puppy-grade food a leash and harness plenty of toys You may also wish to purchase a puppy gate if there are areas of your home that you want to keep your Pug away from. This is all about making your home as safe as possible for your new arrival. Make sure anything that could potentially cause harm to your pup is removed. Clear your schedule Having a Pug puppy is a bit like having a human baby. So make sure to clear your schedule and get all of those errands done ahead of time! Once they arrive… 4. Avoid crowds Hold your excitement. That means no crowds. Try to keep the home environment as stress-free as possible so that your puppy can settle in and start to feel part of the family. Crate training is the first step. Lay down a regular routine from the get to and your Pug will be good as gold in no time.
