So my family (my mom, dad, and I) just got an F1B labradoodle puppy last Thursday (which was June 28th). Since we got her, I have become her primary caretaker, and I spend the most time with her.…Continue

Sarah Mae Doughty posted a discussionAny Doodles in the D/FW area?
So, I live in Dallas, Texas and I was wondering if anyone would like to have a Doodle party in or around Dallas. Any and all Doodles would be welcome, but I would have to confirm with my parents where and when we could have the Doodle party (I'm 17 and still live with them). I was thinking we could go to a dog park (if anyone knows of a good one in the area), and have our Doodles play together while chatting with each other. Anyway, I just thought that it would be a fun thing to do, seeing as…See More

Adina P replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"Defintely NORMAL. I had a living furry JAWS when Rosco was a pup. He turned out great. But he left me feeling scared, hopeless and once or twice in tears because I felt so useless in my attempts to stop it. What worked best…"
BG and Gavin replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"This is an excellent article Sue. It is what we did with Gavin as well who was very mouthy as a puppy, particularly with my DH. He regularly "stormed out of the room" when Gavin got too rough. Seems like a distant memory…"
Jane, Guinness and Murphy replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"Often when puppies get into a "nipping frenzy" it's because they're over excited. That's when all the play should stop, and possibly a "calming down" period in their crate. Just stay calm but let her…"
Heather & Brinkley replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"It is a puppy thing! It will get better. I will say that our Goldendoodle is 2 1/2 and when we really get playing hard he still "growls" and nips and goes for the ankles just like he does when he is playing with his dog friends... But it…"
Sabina replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"My Vienna would play bite when we first got her--I actually encouraged it to an extent. I read early on that if you teach a puppy what is 'too hard' (yipping when it becomes even slightly annoying, etc) they'll learn the bite…"
Sue and Buddy replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"She is treating you like another puppy and playing with you as she would another dog. Puppies have to learn bite inhibition. I used Ian Dunbar's method and it worked great with Buddy. He does a much better job of describing it, so you can find…"
Ginny Nightingale replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"Sounds totally normal and lots of good advice here--one I would add: exercise, exercise, exercise---puppies have a lot of energy--play with the pup and let her get tired out and when she gets nippy and snappy, it could mean that she is pooped and…"
Sandy, Hattie & Theo replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"LOL, welcome to puppyhood. It will all be okay next year:) in the meantime join the Puppy Madness group. I always yelped loudly said "No Bite" sternly and got up and walked away. Is the puppy just playing or with you alone or are there…"
Bonnie and Kona replied to Sarah Mae Doughty's discussion Having Biting Problems with Izzy"Please join the Puppy Madness group! There is lots of information on nipping puppies there. You can search the discussions in that group for suggestions. One idea is to yelp loudly in a high pitched voice when the pup tries to nip. This is what the…"

- About Me:
- Hello, my name is Sarah, and I am going to be 17 on July 24! I am a huge animal lover, and had wanted a dog my entire life. Now I finally have my first little baby labradoodle!
- What Type of Doodle(s) do you have? What are their names? Tell us about your doodle(s) or any other pets you have!
- I got the sweetest little F1B labradoodle puppy on Thursday, June 28th. She is 8 weeks old, and is very playful (when she's actually awake) and very smart (she learned "sit" in about a day and a half). Her name is Isabel, but we call her Izzy. She is my first dog. She can get a bit aggressive at times, but we a re working on correcting that. Otherwise, she is what the breeder described as a "marshmallow." She's basically usually a very chill dog, and she sleeps most of the day.
- Where did you get your doodle(s)?
- Breeder
- Why did you choose a doodle rather than another breed or mix?
- Choosing a doodle wasn't my decision, but I am the reason that we chose one. I am severely allergic to most other dogs, but I had wanted a dog my entire life. About a month ago (today is June 29, 2012), my dad took me to a 'Doodle Romp' hosted by Safari Doodles, and made me stick my face in some dogs' fur. Guess what happened? Absolutely nothing. That day was the day my parents decided we should get a dog, so we put down a deposit that same day.
