December 15, 2021
A new dog breed is fast becoming a favorite amongst American families and for a range of reasons. At first sight, a Goldendoodle, which is a cross between a golden retriever and a poodle, captures your heart with their adorable appearance.

However, that isn’t all there is to a Goldendoodle. Here are some other essential highlights that would make you fall in love with this furry baby breed:
Smart & Trainable
Goldendoodles are extremely smart and take to command easily. They are also great at picking up tricks easily, and bring to life the old expression, “You can teach old doodles new tricks.”
Minimal Upkeep
This breed doesn’t demand a lot in terms of attention. In addition, you can opt for your preferred size; large, medium, or tiny. And while they require minimal attention, they still deserve to get all your love.
Great With Kids
Goldendoodles make for the perfect family pet. They are great with babies, toddlers, and adolescents. They are an explicitly trustworthy companion. They also have lots of energy, and would definitely match up to the playful antics of kids.
Low Shedding
This breed is especially noteworthy because of the fact that they barely shed. Compared to the Golden retriever, you would be doing a lot less cleaning. They are also hypoallergenic, implying that they have less allergens, which is great for people with allergies.
Top Hybrid
The Goldendoodle is a cross of two top breeds; the golden retriever and the poodle, and this endows them with lots of extra cuteness. Also, studies have shown that they are at a lower risk of exhibiting disorders prevalent in their parent breeds. This implies that their genetic health is at a much better level.
Given all of these qualities, it’s no surprise that this breed is fast winning hearts and turning heads.

GOOD Based on 1275 reviews Posted on Pam OTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The store was clean. The bettas were not kept in small bowls. They were kept in small aquariums with filtration which is a big improvement over most large pet stores. They had a decent amount of varieties of fish and a really good variety of freshwater plants.Posted on Dale NTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

They have the cutest cats ever and it’s good behaviorPosted on Ken kTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. James was absolutely awesome to deal with the process went pretty easy and they were very thorough about their process and we could not be happier with our little babyPosted on Amy MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We LOVE this pet store! They have dogs and sometimes cats too. They also have bunnies, hamsters, ferrets, guinea pigs, mice, birds and a nice selection of fish. Adults and teens are able to get hamsters, mice and rabbits and guinea pigs out and hold them while children pet them as long as you are very careful and use sanitizer before and after handling g them. You can also get a puppy out and they have little designated areas you can spend some time playing with the puppy! We enjoy this as its fairly close and easy to pop in while getting our dog supplies. The only downfall is that it is a pet store and I would recommend rescuing a dog or cat instead of supporting the breeders as thease are full bred dogs from breeders. There are just so many dogs that are already here that need rescued rather then breeding more. But come check it out even just to get your puppy fix or something to do that costs nothing!
