Puppy Tips

Remain Calm! How to Help Your Pup With Loud Noises

 We are excited to share another great blog post from Baxter and Bella with our Colonial Village Labradoodles family! This online training website offers a variety of helpful and productive tips as you care for and train your four legged friend. 

It is often common for many four legged friends to experience fear or stress when hearing loud noises, especially when adapting to their new family and home. This blog post offers great tips of how to introduce your pup to various noises in a way that will allow your pup to become comfortable with different surroundings and sounds. 

If your pup gets worked up about things like thunder or fireworks, try doing 10-minute “sound sessions” during the day when everything is calm. Play those sounds at a very low volume and let them play in the background. Don’t make a fuss. Don’t even train during it. Just let them exist with the sound playing softly.

At first, they might bark or look unsure. That’s okay. You don’t need to jump in. Just stay calm and let the session run its course. Over time, they’ll start to realize they’re totally safe.

What is a multi-generational Australian Labradoodle?

Multi-generational Australian Labradoodles are a cross between many different parent breeds. The breed originated in Australia in the 1980s with the intent of creating an allergy-friendly service dog for the blind. Australian Labradoodles are a combination of a Poodle, Labrador Retriever, English Cocker Spaniel, American Cocker Spaniel, and Irish Water dogs. These breeds were hand-selected for specific breed qualities to create the ideal service dog for those with allergies. Since then, the breed has continued on and spread across the world. Australian Labradoodles are now considered their own breed with its own breed clubs (ALAA and WALA).
