Hello World! Welcome Friends! So you’re looking for a new dog but don’t know what breed will work best in your life? We understand the struggle.
We were in that position once, and then a good friend of ours introduced us to the Doodle breed. And we haven’t looked back since.
If you’re wondering what a Doodle is, let us explain. Doodles are a designer dog breed that can be made by mixing Poodles with other breeds of dog. Popular Doodle breeds include the Labradoodle (Poodle X Labrador), Goldendoodle (Poodle X Golden Retriever), and Cockapoo (Poodle X Cocker Spaniel).
In this article, we’re going to pitch to you why you need a Doodle in your life. We have a lot to talk about, so let’s dive straight in.
Here are our top 5 reasons why you should consider getting a doodle dog.
1. They Make Great Company
We’re kicking off our list with one of our absolute favorite things about Doodles. They are fantastic companies.
Many of you have probably been working from home, like us, in the last year. Our delightful Doodle made this a lot more bearable.
There’s nothing like coming home from work (this year it’s more accurately been walking out of our home office) and seeing her cute little face staring back at us. If you need a best friend in your life, get yourself a Doodle.
Doodles also make great Emotional Support Animals as they are smart and affectionate animals. We’ve found having company and a reason to get up and exercise over the last 10 months has worked wonders for our mental health.
2. They’re Hypoallergenic
One of the original ideas behind breeding Poodles with other dogs was to create a wider range of hypoallergenic breeds. Poodles themselves are hypoallergenic, but they are notoriously difficult dogs to own as they are quite highly strung and needy.
By breeding them with other types of dogs (most commonly working breeds) not only do you get the benefit of a hypoallergenic litter, but a set of dogs who are much easier to live with.
If you’ve always wanted a dog, but have allergies, Doodles are a great option. They are as fun and full of personality as any pure dog breed, if not more so.
3. They have Strong Personalities
That being said, breeding Poodles with other breeds does not produce meek, docile dogs. Having a Doodle really is introducing a new member to your family.
They are excitable, friendly dogs that love company. Every doodle we’ve met has a set of unique quirks that brings real joy to their owner’s lives.
Our Doodle keeps us crying with laughter all day. Whether she’s got stuck in the laundry basket whilst trying to perform the sock heist of the century or she’s trying to convince one of the cats to come and play outside with her – we’re never short of entertainment.
We’ve heard a lot of people say that cross-breeding dogs mean you lose a bit of each breed. We’d disagree, by cross-breeding these dogs you get the best of both breeds.
We will warn you that Doodles are very smart breeds and they will keep you on your toes with their escapades.
4. They are Extremely Loyal
We mentioned above that Doodles make great company, but we’d like to take things a little bit further now and talk about how loyal Doodles can be.
Doodles are great at picking up on changes in our moods, particularly when we are feeling down. No matter what kind of day you’ve had, how well you’re doing at work, or whether you’ve eaten your five a day – your Doodle will still love you.
They’re great dogs even when you have small children in the house. Our friends with Doodles are always so thankful for how gentle their dogs are with their kids. They’ve even noted that their Doodles are more than happy to try and get involved with the parenting of their little ones.
5.They’re Adorable
Some people may accuse us of personal bias here, but come on!
We’re not advocating buying a dog just because it’s cute. However, if you want to spend every day looking at your dog and thinking ‘how can anything this adorable and precious possibly exist’ – then you’ll want to get yourself a Doodle.
Whether you love big or small dos there’s a Doodle breed for you. They come in every possible coat color too!
