As a leading mini groodle breeder, Puppies Downunder pride ourselves on supporting our customers from the moment they contact us and are there throughout their dog’s life. THE GROODLE What is a Groodle? A Groodle is a mixed breed consisting of a Golden Retriever and a Poodle. They are also known as Goldendoodles. Breeding the Golden Retriever and Poodle together creates a larger sized dog that has the temperament and trainability of a Golden Retriever and the coat, intelligence and trainability of a Poodle. Groodles are perfect for families, couples and individuals. Groodles are calm, laidback, friendly, intelligent and easily trainable. They love a cuddle and are very loyal to their family/companions. Their beautiful temperament and high intelligence makes them suitable to be trained as therapy pets or service dogs for those with conditions such as autism and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) . They also suitable to be trained as Diabetic Alert dogs and Assistance dogs for people living with a wide range of disabilities. Groodles love to play and can socialise well with other animals and people of all age groups. The Groodle's Temperament Groodles and Health Groodles have diverse genetics due to being a mixed breed. This makes them less likely to develop genetic disease when bred by a responsible breeder who genetically tests the parents. The main genetic diseases that can appear in Groodles are: PRA – Progressive Rod Cone degeneration of the eyes, this comes from the genes of the Poodle. Von Willebrand’s Disease – A bleeding disorder caused by low levels of clotting protein in the blood. Degenerative Myelopathy – This disease causes a progressive degeneration of the spinal cord in older dogs, this occurs in both Poodles and Golden Retrievers. Puppies Downunder conduct full breed profile genetic testing on all our sires and dams. We carefully select which dogs we breed together and only breed from Clear to Carrier or from Clear to Clear. MINI GROODLE BREEDER Groodle The Step-By-Step Guide To Bringing Home A Mini Groodle Buying a puppy is a daunting task, and it shouldn’t be taken lightly; after all, you’re welcoming a new member into your family! Although the Puppies Downunder urges families to take their decision to buy a puppy seriously, we also believe that people should have access to support throughout the entire adoption process. As a leading mini groodle breeder, we pride ourselves on being there for our customers from the moment they contact us and support them throughout their dog’s life. We’re here to step you through the purchase and adoption process, so you know exactly what to expect when buying a mini groodle from Puppies Downunder. Suki and Chungus F2 Mini Groodles 956000016640558M A Few Things To Do Before You Buy A Mini Groodle Before you start searching for a mini groodle for sale, there are a few things you need to check and do to make sure you’re ready for the commitment. Check the budget. A lot of people think the cost of the puppy is the thing they need to budget for, and while it’s the most substantial initial outlay, it’s by no means the only investment you’ll need to make. You’ll need to make room in your budget for all the toys, grooming supplies, and food, as well as regular vet visits, registration fees, insurance, and any amendments you need made to the house to make it puppy-safe. Make time to bond with your puppy. We suggest taking a week or two off work so you can settle your puppy into its new home. Trust us; you’ll want to spend every moment with your new puppy. Do some research and planning. If you’ve never raised a puppy before, it’s a good idea to research what to expect and training techniques. You should also read into crate training methods to teach your puppy independence and reduce the chances of anxiety development. If you’ve had experience with training puppies, make sure you brush up on the unique nuances of the mini groodle breed, so you’re ready to hit the ground running. Consider booking your new puppy into puppy school, so they have plenty of opportunities to socialise with other people and dogs as well as learn a few tricks. As a leading mini groodle breeder, the Puppies Downunder team can give you some expert tips and tricks to help you train your mini groodle. Consider registration and insurance. You’ll need to register your puppy once you bring them home, but different councils and districts have different rules for how and when you can register. You should also look through options for insurance policies and choose the best one for your mini groodle and your budget. Remember, the earlier you organise insurance, the better your premiums will be as your dog grows older. Suki F2 Mini Groodles 956000016664189F Why Choose A Mini Groodle Over A Full-Sized Groodle? If you’re tossing up between a full-sized groodle or a mini groodle, here are a few things to consider that may help you decide. Are you limited on space? Groodles are a mix between a poodle and a golden retriever, so they grow to be big dogs. If you live in an apartment or a townhouse, they might be too big to keep indoors. On the other hand, mini groodles are pred with a miniature poodle, so they only grow to be around 35-40cm in height and 10-15kg in weight, which is ideal for apartment living. Mini groodles tend to live the longest. The average groodle has a life expectancy of around 10-15 years, and mini groodles usually live the longest. They’re just as intelligent, affectionate, and playful as their full-sized relatives. All the things you love about the groodle are exactly the same in a mini groodle; it just comes in a smaller package. They stay a little teddy forever. People love groodle puppies because they look like cuddly little teddy bears. The best part about mini groodles is that they stay little!

Our Puppy Care Guide tells you everything you need to know about caring for your puppy. PUPPY CARE GUIDE Becoming an owner of a new dog can be a very rewarding experience, but it also carries with it much responsibility. We have put together this Puppy Care Guide to provide you with some handy hints and tips which we hope you will find helpful. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us on 0499 912709 Our puppies have been carefully nurtured, raised on a healthy diet and well socialised in a happy and loving environment. We do hope you will continue this work to ensure your puppy remains happy and healthy. Get your printable version of this guide HERE Bringing Your Puppy Home Bringing home your puppy can be an exciting time, however for puppies this can sometimes be a stressful time as they learn to become familiar with their new family and surroundings. Some of the symptoms you may notice as a result of this stress is loss of appetite, loose stools and diarrhoea. This will usually pass within a few weeks and is not a cause for concern providing your puppy is still active and appears content. However, if you feel concerned at all we prefer you call us immediately so we can advise you accordingly. Another reason why your puppy may develop diarrhoea can be due to eating too much dry food or has eaten a new food that it has not eaten before. We recommend you feed your puppy as per our Puppy Diet Guide . We offer 4 weeks free Pet Insurance with Knose Pet Insurance . Please note there is a 14 day waiting period for any sickness claims. If you have any concerns regarding the health of your puppy during this time period, please contact us a we have a veterinary surgery on our permises and will be about to treat your puppy should the need arise. Feeding Twice a day- a combination of any of the following: Variety Shapes Dry food (biscuits) - Once Daily Raw chicken wings or drumsticks to chew on (great for puppy's teeth) To be given once daily after 14 weeks of age Never give cooked bones as shards of bone can be a choking hazard or cause serious damage to your puppy’s mouth, throat and stomach. Prime 100 Chicken Roll (Twice Daily - Breakfast and Dinner) Lactose Free Milk only. Once Daily. DO NOT feed your puppy cow’s milk as this can cause diarrhoea, vomiting and loose stools. A printable version of our Puppy Diet Guide can be found HERE. Treatments and Vaccinations Worming Intestinal Worms can be very easily caught so treating your new pet is important. Worming should be done once a week or fortnight depending on the syrup or tablet; please refer to directions on packet. Adult worming is necessary every 3 months once the puppy reaches the age of 12 months. (We use Drontal All Wormer/Aristopet All Wormer) Heart worms can be contracted through mosquito bites and can result in heart failure, organ damage and lung disease A Heart worming preventative treatment should be commenced before 6 months of age. We treat our puppies with Advocate. We recommend taking your puppy to a vet to get an annual Heart Worm Preventative Vaccination. Fleaing We use Frontline Flea Spray for fleas or Simparica for ticks and fleas once per month. It is recommended to refer to the instructions prior to administering to your puppy. Vaccinations Do not take your puppy to parks before the C5 Vaccination and protection after vaccination may take up to 10 days. Avoid contact with unvaccinated animals during this time. Look after your dog’s limbs and spine! Please do not allow your puppy to jump on furniture, climb stairs or over exercise as this can cause numerous injuries and issues with your dog’s limbs and spine in the long term. Toy Warning! Always keep an eye on your puppy when he/she is playing with their toys. Some toys feature small parts that can fall off or can be chewed off. These can cause choking or serious internal issues should parts be swallowed. Replace toys as soon as possible if they have parts that appear to be loosening or wearing out. We prefer to use rope toys for our puppies. Grooming your Puppy Coats All different types of dogs with different types of coats will need a different type and quantity of grooming, we recommend taking your new pet to a professional groomer. Avoid bathing your new pet to often or you will strip their coat of all their natural oils making them more prone to dandruff, dryness and matting. Buy a shampoo and conditioner specifically designed for dogs, as human grade shampoo and conditioner may irritate your new pets skin causing adverse reactions including dryness, rashes and irritation. We recommend pet shampoos with Aloe Vera and Oil of Rosemary extracts which are natural flea repellents or Petplay shampoo and conditioner. Nails If you walk your new pet often it is likely that you will not have to trim their nails often, but it is important to handle your new pet’s feet at regular intervals so that they are used to it anyway. To trim your new pet’s feet you will require nail trimmers specifically designed for dogs. It is important to associate trimming your animals nails with good things such as treats or praise so that it does not become a chore. Steps: Pick up your animals paw and handle it for a small period of time. Taking it slow and easy, gently place the nail clippers over the excess nail and trim. Be careful not to trim too much of their nail. Repeat this process with each paw until complete. Remember to praise and/or treat your new pet after each paw or after the entire process is complete. Ears It is important to clean your pet’s ears often to avoid nasty infections and/or ear mites. We recommend doing this every two weeks and any time your animal is bathed (at 6-12 week intervals). We currently recommend EpiOtic to clean their ears. Steps: Hold your pet firmly, using a cotton tip gentle wipe the inside of each ear (you may need more than one cotton tip). There are many curves and crevasses inside a dogs ear, insure you get inside all of the curves and crevasses. Be sure that you do not place the cotton tip too far into your pet’s ear to avoid harm and/or injury. Vet practices and groomers also provide this service, if you are not confident cleaning your pet’s ear it is important that you hire a professional. Training, Obedience and Socialisation Commence puppy training from 10 weeks onwards. The training should commence on the first day the puppy is taken to it’s new home. Enrol your puppy into a puppy training school at least 10 days after it has received it’s (C5) vaccination. Socialisation is very important, make sure that your puppy is well socialised at a young age with other pets, people and environments For more information read our puppy behaviour and training guide . Crate Training We crate train our puppies from 8 weeks of age for 30 -60 minutes per day. We highly recommend you continue to crate train your puppy for 30 -60 minutes everyday and place your puppy in their crate at night for bed. This will help train them to be independent and prevent separation anxiety. It is normal for the puppy to cry for the first week as it begins to settle into their new home. Only give your puppy your attention when it is calm and quiet in order to reinforce positive behaviour. Giving attention when they cry will lead to unwanted and disruptive behaviour. Toilet Training We recommend taking your puppy outside first thing in the morning and last thing night before bedtime to help prevent any accidents in the crate. Take your puppy outside frequently during the day, every 1-2 hours and give them plenty of time to roam around outside for toileting. We hope this guide is helpful and we wish you all the best with your new member of the family. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to call us on 0499 912 709 . Thank you, Charlie, Sharron and the Team at Puppies Downunder.
