Choosing a Labradoodle Breeder
by: Edie MacKenzie
?Temperament and Soundness are the two KEY elements in a good family companion; they must not be sacrificed for any reason.?
Quoted from the LAA Breed Standards
http://www.laa.org.au/breed_standard.htm
I want to stress the importance of not choosing a Labradoodle puppy based on price. You want to buy your puppy from a credible and experienced breeder, and that usually comes with a heftier cost. However, if you?re looking for an allergy-friendly, top-quality Labradoodle, the price should be at the bottom of your priority list. You know you?ve found a good breeder if their mission is to better the breed with healthy, well-tempered dogs. The best way you can do this is - research, research, and more research. It?s a long and tedious process, but it?s worth every minute when you find the breeder who can provide you with the right Labradoodle.
Finding the right breeder is especially critical with Labradoodles, because there are so many backyard breeders claiming to be Doodle breeders. They?re obviously in the business solely to make money and aren?t concerned with the betterment of the breed. Don?t settle for this type of ?breeder!? Also, steer far away from buying a puppy from a pet store.
Yes, I know they look cute and needy in the window, and in your heart you may want to buy it, but a majority of these puppies were raised in puppy mills and they?re most likely not allergy-friendly and very probably ill and/or genetically flawed.
Puppy mills typically consist of dozens of pups confined in crates contaminated with pests and feces.
These dogs receive little if any veterinary care. They don?t get any exercise, playtime, or companionship. They often endure mistreatment and malnutrition. Then, these dogs reproduce with each other, resulting in severe genetic defects and health problems. If you purchase a puppy from a pet store, you?re supporting this horrific practice.
The reputable Labradoodle breeder strives to advance the quality of the breed with each new litter. This breeder matches parents based on certain criteria to produce a healthy litter. These criteria include desirable physical and behavioral characteristics and with each litter, the quality of the breeding stock improves. I recommend you visit as many breeders as possible before selecting a puppy. Don?t be tempted to buy a Labradoodle puppy on your first visit - it?s easy to get caught up in the excitement of seeing all the precious pups!
Visiting the Labradoodle breeders gives you an opportunity to meet the puppy?s siblings and the parents?giving you an idea of the physical and behavioral characteristics.
Pay close attention to the parents to see if they?re healthy and well behaved. Also, ask what kind of temperament they have and what types of health issues they?ve had as well.
Take notice of how the puppies interact with the breeder. It?s a good sign if they?re playful and outgoing. If they?re shy are fearful, there is a reason why!

We All Love A Well Behaved Dog
by: Mark McAuley
All of us remember our first puppy when we were kids. Bringing them home as they are
crawling all over your lap. Licking your face with their cute little pink tongues. Of course
what we remember as kids with our first dog is a lot different from what our parents remember about that time. As a lot of us have found out since we grew up and brought a puppy home for our family.
We soon realize there is much work that goes along with the cute little guy. It?s not long
before he is chewing everything in site. You find yourself moving everything in your house as if you had a toddler around.
Then there is the house training, lots of fun there.
With some dogs it could take weeks before your dog has mastered going to the door.
Which is why some people give up and just spend their time cleaning up after him.
But thankfully here are some great products out there to aid in house...

Sales Training Means Business
Sales Training Means Business
by: Sherry Harris
You can be a master in producing world-class products and may be among the best in the business, but that is not enough.
You have to sell the product and anytime and anywhere in the world convincing a consumer is not an easy task.
It is a well-accepted perception that to sell a product in numbers, product quality is not always the top priority.
It has been observed that a reasonable product can outnumber a superior product by selling more units.
It may sound harsh but it is a fact and the corporate world agrees with it.
So we can conclude that selling a product is a craft and sales pundits nurture that and try to refine it everyday. To attain this craft we have to get sales training under the supervision of these pundits and professionals.
In sales training a set of steps are taught that need to be adhered to sell products. These are:
