Facts about the Bordoodle

VCA
Socialization before 14 weeks has lifelong impact — safely expose puppies to new people, surfaces, and sounds early.
ASPCA
Annual vet checkups + dental cleanings add years to a dog’s life. Don’t skip the yearly visit even if all seems well.
AVMA
Short daily training sessions (5–10 min) beat long weekly ones — dogs learn better with consistent repetition.
