My Goldendoodle Diary
Australia
Registrace 6. 02. 2021
This channel is about Goldendoodle dogs (also known as Groodles).
I chat about my Goldendoodle Sophie and her friends... sharing my observations about this adorable but sometimes confusing breed (Golden Retriever X Poodle mix).
Goldendoodle puppies are adorable, but there is much to know about them. I talk about these beautiful yet sometimes challenging doodle dogs.
I focus on caring for, training, grooming and bonding with doodle dogs - the kind of practical dog info owners want to know.
I also have a soft spot for other Poodle mixes - Labradoodles, Spoodles (Cockapoos), Sheepadoodles, etc... and have met MANY of these and their humans.
For me, having a Goldendoodle and being part of a doggie community simply makes life sweeter.
I believe we cultivate our own better selves through our dogs. More kindness, more patience... and ultimately, better connection with other people.

This gives me hope that my 6 month old MONSTER will one day calm down and let me actually enjoy having him around! 😰
Hi! I put mine in a kiddie pool to gather the hair. Thanks!
That is a great idea! Thanks for sharing x
I love my golden doodle he is the best yes he get separation anxiety ok we deal with it. He is so loving g and affectionate I could never let him down
Hi Chris, I agree, they are the most lovable, adorable thing. Separation anxiety can be overcome with training, patience and love. Thanks for stopping by, have a beautiful day! x
Thank you, very informative!
I'm glad Karl. Thanks for the feedback :)
Thanks for sharing your journey! Sophie’s coat color and texture (wavy, curly, straight)?
No problem Karl. Sophie’s coat is a light apricot, medium dense and wavy. If you’d like more info about her coat in particular (doodle coats do differ), check out this video czcams.com/video/pBRBye2tGhY/video.html All the best, Joanna x
❤
Thank you 💞
My Gdoodle is 1.5 years. He was dumped on me by my son who didn’t know what he was getting into. Of course I didn’t know I was adopting T Rex either. Well he doesn’t have separation anxiety but he goes from 0-60 in 2 seconds and he could chew through a brick and has tried. But I love him and he’s here to stay. Hopefully with age he’ll calm down some.
Thank you for sharing. They are off-the-charts lovable, but the truth is they are sometimes off-the-charts frustrating as well as pups. He's lucky to have you. Hang in there, and like us, you will recount the stories of how it all began so dramatically. All the best and keep us posted in another half year or so. By 3yo you are likely to see a marked difference. All the best xx
I'm crazy about these lovely curly dogs. If I had known this channel existed sooner I'd have subscribed! Fixed that 👍
Thank you... you're so welcome here! xx
I am scared to do this! My Golden Retriever is 4 months and I tried with a grinder. No go, and yet I don't want to have to go to a groomer once a week or two. I even bought a clipper with a light on it. Great video though! :(
Thanks for commenting, Amy. A couple of suggestions about wriggly-puppy-bodies. You can slowly condition your golden to having his/her nails clipped by just getting her used to handling her paws (no grinder, no clippers) until she gets used to it. Also, you can sneak in and do one nail at a time - stealth like - when she is sleeping. Always associate it with a positive experience (praise, even a treat). Don't be in too much hurry to get all nails cut right away during the habituation/training process. All the best, let me know how you go xx
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary I was thinking I will take her to the groomer every couple of weeks for her to get use to it then try....?
Hi there great video! From your experience of golden doodle owners/dogs themselves, would you say they are generally a very high energy breed? We’ve had high energy dogs which we love, but I do want an easier dog as we know a friend with a cockapoo who’s the easiest dog in the world !! Just wondering :)
Thanks for reaching out. They do of course vary in energy levels, but if I were to say for the majority of the time, goldendoodles are quite high energy, particularly in the first 3 years of life (in my experience and in the experience of other owners). I suggest taking a look at two of my other videos for more detail about the breed czcams.com/video/gSIzluJ6iUY/video.html and czcams.com/video/F4CPh-lxT9k/video.html That said, if you are looking for a pup, I suggest speaking with the breeder and letting them know that you would like the (relatively) calmest pup in the litter. They bring up the pups for the first 8 weeks so a good, observant breeder would know who's who in the zoo. I don't think there's such thing as a calm goldendoodle pup though - just high energy and relatively less high energy. It's more about the nature of the dog once it's grown. It's great you're asking this important question though and not diving in too quickly without being prepared. All the best, and let me know how you go xx
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary Thank you so much for such a detailed response! based on this and my research I think a larger cockapoo would suit us brilliantly! Haven't known a breed to be sooooo happy to lie down all day on some days!
It sounds like the cockapoo is the right thing for you. What I said about requesting a relatively calm pup from the breeder still stands for cockapoos - remember that spaniels (one half of the cockapoo equation) in particular can be a very energetic breed, so if you'd love a chill dog, let the nature of the puppy be the deciding factor. Goldendoodles, cockapoos (called spoodles, here in Australia), labradoodles... really all doodles are my favourite breed. All the best xx
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary yeah yeah thanks so much! If we get a chance to view / have first dibs we will pick the calmest one! And agreed, we will make sure the parent is a show cocker spaniel not a working one! My brother has a working one and he doesn’t really stop poor thing lol ! Thanks for all the help :)
I love her braided hair! 🐾🐾💝☮️
Thank you! It's because her ear hair is so long, way past her ear leather that I can indulge in a little human-i-fying little-girl looks on her ha ha. Thanks so much for your positivity and reaching out, my love xx
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary yes, super cute girl to do braids on :-) I bet she’s so well-behaved. Have a good night.
@@Goldendoodlewinnie Thank you! She can be a cute little rascal sometimes, but when it comes to her hair, she loves being primped and primed. Have a wonderful week 💖
The problem is you. Not the dog.
Hi Blayne, I have a feeling you did not listen to my story until the end. I encourage you to listen to my learning journey in full (you may be surprised). x
Love your videos! She is gorgeous ❤. Please can you tell me at what age you started clipping her coat and did you clip against the lay of the fur or in the same direction? I think my 3 month old Goldendoodle will have similar coat to Sophie’s. Thank you very much! Best Wishes
Awww, thank you Anny! 🌟Seeing as I was keeping her very well brushed and combed (to the skin), I was told by an older, wise groomer to wait until she was 1 year old to give her coat a full clip, when there was a good layer of about 2 inches of adult coat coming through before having her clipped all over for the first time. The groomer said that way, the coat grows out evenly from that time on throughout the dog's life. It's true that Sophie's coat is a dream, but I will never know if it would've been any different if I didn't follow my groomer's suggestion (groomer was very seasoned, groomed dogs for 20+ years). It was difficult to keep Sophie's coat groomed towards the end of the 12 month mark, because the puppy coat is so fine and prone to tangles, but I managed to stay on top of it with a daily routine (she only ever got very small mats that I was able to brush and comb through - I cut out any occasional larger mats). For a while after she started having full body clips, I kept her in a longish coat, but in the past couple of years have clipped her myself with a shorter body cut (keeping the head and tail fluffy and the legs slightly longer than than the body clip so she doesn't look like she has chicken legs and looks more balanced!). I clip in both directions as doodle hair doesn't really have a direction - tends to grow perpendicular to the body. Sophie's signature is the hair over her ears being uncut - I never cut it at the bottom to give the illusion of long ears. You can hone in on a 'look'that you like so you can instruct the groomer once she is due for her first full clip (do give her little hygiene clips in the meanwhile though - and of course clip hair from her eyes so she can see). All the best with your youngster.💞
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE INFORMATION!! It’s really helpful as I will be doing my own grooming. Best wishes ❤️
You're welcome, Anny. Be brave with the grooming. As with any skill, you get better with time. All the best xx
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary Thank you ❤️ i hope he doesn’t look in the mirror after his first DIY clip!!! 😂
You'll do just fine! BTW (true story) after keeping Sophie in a long coat for ages and clipping her body short for the first time, she barked at her reflection in the mirror until she realised it's her! hee hee
I have a black goldendoodle at home and you would love him
I'm sure I would, Luke. They are such clever dogs with such distinct personalities. It's like meeting different types of very sweet, very funny, very kind people!
super wonderful dogs extremely bright! 😎
Yes they sure are. That doggie goodness and cheekiness is off the charts. That look in their eyes tells me they know a great deal more than we think they do. Enjoy your gorgeous Winnie and thank you for all YOUR sweetness in your kind comments. So lovely to have you here xx

I wanted to get one real bad but after a lot of research decided against it. We got an abused little Border Terrier, a little lady who came from a hoarder house…had had already 2 litters before 2 yrs old with her brother no less…it took a while for her to get used to us, she was afraid of men in general as her abuse came from men. We have had her now for 3 yrs. She is almost the perfect dog and we love her so much. Her barking and protection of myself is the only thing that causes some trouble. She barks when someone is at the door and if we let them in….she will continue barking until we put her in her “house” then she relaxes. Do not come near or touch her Mama though….
It's great that you ended up with your Border Terrier. My channel is about Goldendoodles, but more so it is about dogs in general. Mine has a tendency to bark too. I guess some were born that way, others weren't. Thank you for stopping by... xx
Stupid people shouldn’t own animals!☠️ puppies are like babies time , patience, love ! They mature eventually….🦮🥰 my beautiful crazy doodle!
Hmmm, are you sure you actually watched the video to the end, Pamela?
Can I not kennel my 10 month old or is that too young? I wonder if the kennel makes his anxiety worse…
You can try it for short periods to see how he reacts. If he is comfortable, and maybe accompanied by a favourite toy, then perhaps you can extend the periods he spends in the kennel/crate. Just observe his reaction. I tried it with Sophie over a short period of time and she simply hated it, so I didn't push. Go with what works x
Video starts at 1:42
We need more videos like this. My pup/dog is exactly like yours! Ugh, the barking and the needyness!!! He is a velcro dog!
Thank you for stopping by and the kind feedback. There are so many aspects to both their looks and characters - they really are just like people. Sounds like you still have a youngster. They really do mellow gradually over time. I'm not sure if the velcro thing gets less or if you get so used to it, it just becomes a part of life! All the best x
Thank you. Very useful and beautifully presented. I tend to give two fish skins to clean my labradoodles teeth every evening as I also found the dental chews useless. He only chewed on one side and even the large ones disappeared in seconds. I also give him a rabbits ear which I was told sends any worms that may be present out through the gut! So far he has avoided worms using that and a natural wormer every 3 months. He’s 3 1/2 years old. Nail cutting is on the agenda as his groomer is retiring. This video has given me a little confidence to try it. Thank you. 🙏 😊
Hi Sandra, thank you for the lovely feedback and the teeth cleaning and worming treat tips. Your labradoodle is definitely in loving, caring hands with you! Joanna xx
My Goldendoodle has more poodle like fur. Almost zero shedding. He has more a retriever shaped head. He's also leveled out a 90 lbs.
It's interesting to observe the unique blend of qualities each Goldendoodle has inherited from each side of its lineage. He is unique and uniquely yours to love.
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary Oh yeah, he's such a sweet pupper. When I put his food down our old one eyed cat is always there to taste his food. Casey sits patiently. That cat only there for about 15 seconds to check it out.
@@rodelliott3683 that is such a sweet scene you've described. You are lucky your pup is so good with cats. Mine is fine with most animals, but barks profusely at cats unfortunately... it's as though she's calling their bluff saying I KNOW you're not really a dog, you're pretending. No cat for us, unfortunately (we used to have one some time before we got her). Growing up I always loved to observe the interaction between our house animals. You're lucky you get to do this.
@@MyGoldendoodleDiary Casey is our first dog. When we got him at 8 weeks, 4 years ago, we had 4 cats so he's grown up with them. Thankfully we have a king bed because with 4 cats and a 90 pound doodle it gets a little crowded. lol

My golden doodle is a therapy dog is the most fantastic animal that I have ever had these loving, compassionate, obedient loves to go on walks. I will admit he got me out of the house after I retired we walk 45 miles a week. He loves it also loves company and as many people around him as he can stand loves when they come over, one fantastic animal
He sounds like an amazing dog with a particularly good nature. They are all beautiful and special but not all suitable as therapy dogs (many are a tad too anxious, and others, a tad too rambunctious). It's great he has you out and about each week - exercise is key (for them as well as us). I call my dog my 'personal trainer' as she gets me out walking way more than I ever walked before. All the best x
Hello, Goldie the Dog has all three traits you have shown. Another quirk he does is go on his back and kick his back legs in the air. I call them Karate kicks. Thanks.
Karate kicks. - that is super-cute. Mine does horizontal kicks after a bath, moving herself all around the rug while lying down. I call it breakdancing. There;s never a dull moment with these muppet dogs!
1:30 THATS LITERALLY MY DOG IT HAS THE SAME FUR SAME SQUARE FACE SAME BELLY SAME EVERYTHING I CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE W
They do vary so much that it's nice to find one that's identical-looking. I hope you enjoyed the video and I gather that you relate! All the best x
This is actually similar to my Rottweiler puppy, only difference is that mine resource guarded from the day I brought him home and growls if he doesn’t like something!
That is interesting. My family had rottweilers growing up - they were much loved. It's important to nip the resource guarding in the bud while your pup's still young. An adult resource guarder rottweiler could become a serious problem as they are powerful dogs. I'd really encourage you to work with a professional trainer on this particular issue. All the best x
Thank you. I learned so much!
I'm glad to hear it Elaine. All the best x
why don't they make sound proof dog pens? so many people say their dogs bark too much when crate training, why not make ones that are sound proof?
Do you brush pup’s teeth daily?
I try to do it as often as I can, but it ends up not being daily. I believe it's best to do it daily. All the other teeth cleaning methods should act like toothbrushing, so if your pup has something something to chew on, that should act as a toothbrushing session.
1 thing you didn’t mention is exercise and walk the dog in the morning, right before you leave and late afternoon.
Yes, absolutely agree.
My groodle was sooooo crazy as a puppy haha but now he’s 3 is way more chill, he still has a cheeky playful energy! They’re great companions and the best friend you’ll ever have! Definitely a breed that requires attention but the love you get back is more than worth it! He gets separation anxiety but so do I hahah….
Groodle camraderie there... you totally get that chaotic love x
These are lovely videos
Thank you. Happy you like them :)
My vet seems to make her worse
Neosporin????
Do not use neosporin in the eye
CAN HUMANS GET DRY EYE FROM THEIR DOG?
PLEASE HELP ME. MY DOG IS MY LIFE
why the : stop barking electro color " on her .?
The collar is vibration-only. Not electric. Never. When she barks, there is a little vibration (like on a cell phone) to discourage her to do it. Thank you for checking.
I have never had to trim my doodles nails. They wear down. I think dirt works better than concrete. Dogs pads grip on concrete. It’s one of the dangers pads face with concrete. The get so much traction it can cause tears. On dirt the dog pad slips and claws dig in. She is five and I groom her they are never long.
Thank you for sharing Jim. I wish that were the case for my dog - every couple of weeks, her nails are long again. Perhaps the dirt around our area is not compacted enough to wear the nails down. Good that you have one less thing to attend to on your doodle :-)
Oh my God how that dog is so calm, my dog is always crazy. Never stayed still😱😭😭
Ha ha I always film after a nice long walk and meal when she's ready for her daytime nap ;-) Thanks for watching our channel xx

Sophie is beautiful, I was recently gifted (I dog sit and Ousier’s Mom did not have a backyard for him to run and play like he does at my home) a 18 months old male Goldendoodle. I ran across your channel while trying to learn more about Goldendoodles. I enjoyed all your information and will eventually make a few videos with Ousier. Thank you
Great to hear. Enjoy life with Ousier. It is a process of growth and discovery, for sure. And love.
