What Makes That Delightful Puppy A True Standard English Cream Goldendoodle?

What Makes That Delightful Puppy A True Standard English Cream Goldendoodle?

By April Briggs


When Goldendoodles first came on the scene, they were a wonderful combination of two breeds, including the Standard Poodle and the Golden Retriever. Breeders and families alike enjoyed the new breed because it turned out to be intelligent, good with children, and they did not shed. These qualities made them very popular. The color was usually light gold, and there were often puppies born with even lighter coats. But responsible breeders will tell you that you must watch for the real deal when searching for a cream colored true English bred dog. Here are some tips to help you.

You need to be careful when buying your pup from any breeder. Checking for a certificate of pedigree for its parents is of primary concern. If the ancestors were imported from Europe, which could include countries such as Spain and Holland, then your puppy is an authentic standard English Cream Goldendoodle. Beware of kennels that primarily sell Goldendoodles, but happen to have a few lighter color creams. These may not be what you are truly wanting to buy.

Determine if you have the correct size for standard by inspecting its parents. The average standard height in inches is about twenty two. Medium height in inches should be around seventeen. Small heights are usually around fourteen. The typical larger dogs will also weigh more. Be certain you are ready to house and feed quite a large pup.

Reputable kennels categorize their pups using an F scale. The letter F will be followed by a number and additional letters, such as 1 or 1B. These indicate the generation in a particular bloodline, and shows what percentage of each breed is carried in the puppy. Ask the kennel owner to explain what these mean in relation to the dog you are buying.

Most reliable kennel owners will prepare your new pet for coming home with you. They do this by starting the training process. They work on behavior and potty skills. They also know that this particular breed is intelligent, but also curious and usually stubborn. Socializing each pup before it goes to its new home is crucial for success once it arrives there.

An experienced vet typically will inspect any newborns at a high quality kennel. They will perform any tail clipping, worming, vaccinations and first health checks. Using pain medications and proper equipment with appropriate antibiotics is best for any pet.

Puppies always need to have their first early claws, called dew, removed. Kennels that do not provide proper care will pull those sensitive young items out with pliers. This is painful, and can result in bad infections. Good kennels have their veterinarian do this work, using proper pain medications and antibiotic follow up. Do not buy from owners where great care is not taken for this procedure.

The very best breeders always offer the combination of certification, care and concern for their English Cream puppies. They want theirs to go to good homes after having the right start in life. Before purchasing any dog advertised as the authentic thing, have a discussion that addresses these issues.
