Instructions
Locate a purebred golden retriever and a purebred poodle to breed. Which of the breeds is male, and which is female, does not matter. Both dogs should be mature, healthy, show-quality dogs.
Make an appointment with a reputable veterinarian to have the health of both dogs assessed. Try to find a veterinarian who has experience with dog breeding and who will be capable of providing care up until the puppies are whelped. Ask the veterinarian to check the animals for any signs of hereditary disease and Brucellosis. The bitch, or female dog, should also be evaluated for her ability to successfully carry a pregnancy based on size and health.
Wait for the female dog to come into heat once both dogs have been given a clear bill of health. Once the bitch displays a light pink discharge and is receptive to male dog advances during the second phase of heat, place the male and female dog together in a secure area. After being contained in a kennel or fenced yard, allow the dogs to mate.
Take the bred bitch to the veterinarian 25 days after breeding. Schedule an ultrasound for this time to allow the veterinarian to check for fetal heartbeats and successful breeding.
Continue to monitor the health of the dog throughout her pregnancy and work with your veterinarian to make a care plan until the goldendoodle puppies are born. After the birth of the puppies, work with your veterinarian to ensure that the pups are properly vaccinated and weaned before going to their new homes.
