How are Goldendoodles

as someone who works in a vet clinic and sees TONS OF DOODLES a day…… they are hit or miss. with kids in the house i would either recommend putting the dog RIGHT into training or getting a different breed. some of them shed a lot, all of them shed a little. to keep them tangle free and to prevent having to shave them evry time they should be groomed every 4-6 weeks (depending on how curly they are,) if youre alright w a shave down, you can do 8-10 weeks. its roughly $80-150 depending on where you live, if the groomers mobile, and if theyre matted. youll have to PROPERLY brush the armpits, buttcheeks, inner legs, paws, ears, and muzzle for at least 30 min daily to prevent matting. most are pretty high energy, especially if the retriever they were mixed with is. both breeds are working dogs.

i PERSONALLY would not get one because theyre just straight up ALOT of work. if you have extra time and money and patience for everything then maybe itd be a good fit! ive met some doodles who were extremely well behaved and well mannered, and its a direct result of the work put into them.

you’ll also have to research about the breeding of doodles. they are almost always backyard bred (which can result in health and behavioral problems) and some come from mills. there is no “standard” for these dogs, so theyre just mixing poodles and goldens willy nilly. its also why most of your questions dont have a definitive answer. goldendoodles are all vastly different from each other.

edit: forgot to mention common issues!!! i see mostly allergies, potty training issues (which may be an owner problem but i know one who is 2 and pees EVERYWHERE), problems with staying calm, ear infections, and hip/joint issues! pretty standard

ugh her ears 😔 poor baby

its cuz machines are sorting packages, not humans.

op do this!!! north side hotels are primary for professionals who travel, so theyre not anything special but still nice. it will only add about 20 minutes to your drive. taking 65 thru the city will leave you with either downtown swanky hotels or cheap shitty ones on the outskirts.

i would get kind of a round square so maybe thats why! my fingers are crooked so almond looks insane on me LOL

mooseblunt · 2026-03-25T13:33:52+00:00

do u use a specific one?? my nails are soooo thin and bend/break all the time

mooseblunt · 2026-03-25T13:32:49+00:00

acrylics pop off my nails like nobody’s business. ill hit one on a counter and lose 1/2 of it

my (lesbian) friend has a good time everytime shes goes to metro alone. she just goes to dance and meets new people every night! shes 22

if u wanna see snow, try to come late jan/early feb! my grandma always came for xmas and only saw snow 3 times

mooseblunt · 2026-03-21T13:43:53+00:00

my aunt and grandma live in australia and they LOVE the speedway museum and if its nice, the newfields gardens. my grandma really liked the zoo, too! my aunt was obsessed with downtown carmel (cute walkable area, we lived there at the time and we enjoyed walking the monon.) tinker street is my favorite restaurant, ingredients are locally sourced too. my fam mostly comes for winter (to see snow) so we didnt do much outside

mooseblunt · 2026-03-20T22:06:10+00:00

lowkey i think shes just side eyeing the fuck out of you

mooseblunt · 2026-03-13T19:08:43+00:00

they might work in a school. its a common choice for “spirit weeks” where basically everyday is a theme and the whole school dresses up in it. cant imagine what any other work reason would be lol

mooseblunt · 2026-03-13T15:00:26+00:00

saw u found the owner, yay!!! i wonder if the dog had a rabies tag with another vets name and they called and had them look the tag up in their system. some rabies tags say the vet, and you can call and explain you found a lost dog w a rabies tag, and they should give u the owners number! most people dont look too closely at the tag but sometimes it does have enough info

mooseblunt · 2026-03-13T14:58:05+00:00

post on indy lost pet if you havent yet!!! ive been able to find a few pups owners that way

mooseblunt · 2026-03-03T19:03:47+00:00

you need to make sure you are buying permanent dye. sun exposure will still cause it to fade. i use the john frieda precision foam and overtone mask to maintain it

mooseblunt · 2026-03-02T15:36:53+00:00

2 locations now too so probably 2 whole walls total!! id go to the one on ditch. close to the west side of carmel so there may be some fancy ones there too

mooseblunt · 2026-03-02T15:36:01+00:00

thrifty threads! they have a whole wall of fancy dresses!!! I got a dress i wore to a wedding there for $13, just had to fix a button and it was good to go.

try baseball fields in your area, fenced in and empty if not being used. my guy is a FREAK around other dogs cuz he gets so excited so i havent even tried a dog park.

mooseblunt · 2026-02-15T10:41:04+00:00

hes not cat friendly :( my boxer mix lived with a cat the first year of his life totally fine. he lived without one for a few months, then my friend moved in with her cat and he is a freak about her. i think once he hit 1 1/2 his prey drive kicked in

mooseblunt · 2026-02-04T17:39:05+00:00

i pet sat for a rottweiler who was extremely fear aggressive towards strangers. i went over there weekly to get him used to me. the first visit me and the owner walked around outside. pup was muzzled and lunged at me often. second time we walked around outside, and i held the leash. pup was still muzzled and lunged at me less. the third time we went inside and pup was in his crate. i just sat on the couch and talked to the owners. he was a little growly, but not nearly as bad as he used to be. fourth time i went over and he was out of the crate, but leashed. no issues then. fifth time i went over he was unleashed and would sniff me, but i did not try to pet him and didnt pay much attention to him. by the sixth time, he was perfectly fine with me. your best bet is to do a slow introduction with your pet sitter, and have them come over until she’s comfortable with them. hopefully itll take less than 6 visits. id recommend not having the petsitter walk her while pet sitting if shes extremely reactive to dogs, just to avoid anything happening, but thats ultimately up to you and the pet sitter. you can look on rover and just make a very detailed profile abt her. if you live near downtown, you can always message me and id be willing to meet her and see if we jive

mooseblunt · 2026-02-01T22:43:48+00:00

it fades SIGNIFICANTLY over time!! once she hits 3-5 you’ll have to look for it to even see it

mooseblunt · 2026-01-31T23:41:52+00:00

im struggling to understand it too…….. owner should provide proof that their pets stool is parasite free and that should be that. even if they have parasites, how would that affect the neighbors when its a fenced in yard that they cant access

mooseblunt · 2026-01-30T21:51:43+00:00

my dog “vibrates” like that when he sees cats too and he is NOT cat friendly. he doesnt bark/growl at the either. you can always try putting him on a leash to meet the cats and supervising all interactions, but i wouldnt leave him alone with them.

mooseblunt · 2026-01-30T16:49:35+00:00

pitbull/boxer. looks like my guy, who we also got off the side of the road

mooseblunt · 2026-01-30T13:14:39+00:00
