I was always told to flip each pup on their back and the one that is the most relaxed w you doing that is the one to chose and I’ve always had fantastic dogs

[@rustyhowe3907]

Same here as it was a trust and chill test, did the same with my current puppy along with my usual finger-chomp test and let her come to me. Well she was eager for me to pick her up, chewed my finger happily without chewing it off and was waggy tailed getting a tummy rub on her back. She's a dang good dog.

I just found your channel! I have a standard golden doodle. F1. Perfect in all ways. I like your methods you use with your dogs. Keep up the good work!

Wondering what you looked for when picking Calli and Aspen as far as temperament? Also, would I know if they have a good proportionate build? Thanks!

[@juliamooradian6733]

great video, just a tip if you want, lower the music a little so i can hear you talk more clearly about it!

[@kayleighmarshall936]

I’m looking in to a mini poodle or a mini golden doodle for my family, we have 3 fun/loud children. We also would like as close to non shedding as possible. What would you suggest? Pure poodle? F1 or F1b doodle? What’s the most all rounder in temperament? I’m going round and round in circles on the internet and you just seem the person who knows everything there is so I would trust your input 😊 thank you x

Hi Gabe are these guys ok with someone going to work. I start at 6.30am through to 3pm. Is about 10mins or so drive there and back. Is this too long for them being at home without me. We have an older medium sized dog who lives inside who would also be at home with the new pup. With my sons type of work they are often home before me. Just wondering if this would work with this breed. Regards Marie from New Zealand

Hey man, great video, but I would recommend turning the background music down. I like the energy, but it makes it hard to hear what you're saying.

[@jellocrackers9107]

Yeah it’s fine for the intro but not for the entire video.

For me it a family/ motional support dog

[@gabebollinger]

perfect!!

Hey Gabe. My wife & I are finally getting our 2 boys 12 & 11 their new best friend. (Feel free to use that) lol. We've looked at your website & you my dude are doing the thing. Meaning you have zero pups available. Keep it up. We're in N.C too. Greensboro area. Recent subscribers also.

[@gabebollinger]

Hey! Would love to get y’all a puppy! I have two pups available right now! Dm me on Instagram for more info

[@jasonclark3724]

@@gabebollinger Dang! On your website there wasn't any openings that we seen. We've already put a deposit down for a pup coming home Christmas Eve.

[@califordamax]

I'm torn between a long-haired dachshund and a golden retriever. My problem with a dachshund is the extreme barking(according to stats), and with golden retriever is the extreme shedding.

[@gabebollinger]

goldens definitely shed A LOT!! i have one and love her to death but dang does she shed A LOT

[@doggoneit8341]

I noticed that all of your puppies are the same color… that beautiful auburn color. I’m considering a golden doodle and the breeder I’m talking to has all different colors from her litters. Why is that?

[@mostlypeacefulredhead2793]

About what size do your pups end up being full grown

[@gabebollinger]

I breed only mediums now so 35-45 pounds

[@sheritadunlap158]

How can I buy a puppy for my baby?

[@georgeduarte8581]

Hello Gabe my name is George Duarte and I live in Bristol Rhode Island. I just lost my best friend Finlay a blonde golden doodle in November he was 11 years old. I miss him so much and I need time to grieve. I love your puppies and all your videos. I’m going to retire in January so I’m hoping to get another puppy in the spring and I think you are the best person to contact for a new best friend. I’ll be in touch soon god bless you and your puppies ❤ sincerely, George, Duarte

[@gabebollinger]

So sorry for your loss, would love to get you a new best friend!!

[@Willa-MUTTDogTraining]

You really need to rename the title of this video to "How to pick a puppy at the end of the day" cuz I like the phrase at the end of the day cuz really when somebody picks out a puppy they're so picking out something in the now they need to think about what they want to deal with at the end of the day when they're tired and they don't have the energy to deal with certain behaviors That's how dogs end up in the pound is when that happens whereas if you pick a puppy out thoughtfully and strategically at the end of the day you're happy with it and it doesn't go to the pound

[@wolfgang8089]

Male or female?

[@clay2pot]

Get a rescue Dog FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gabebollinger]

that’s a good option but not everyone wants to rescue, some people want a specific dog for a specific reason and that’s totally okay

[@doggoneit8341]

@@gabebollingeryes! thank you for saying this. We have tried rescue dogs a few times and they have not been a good fit for our family. We have small Children and the dogs were not good with them… 😢 some rescue dogs can be the perfect dog… but sometimes not.
