Intelligent Puppy Foundation
At this time Open Range Pups concentrates on breeding doodle crossed breeds. We start by choosing the best breeding stock available in the world with parents who have multiple generations of quality healthy genetics. Many of our breeding males and females come from international champion bloodlines.
Why Doodles?
Breeding poodle crosses are not just for looks! Each breed that is crossed with our poodles adds to the genetic line a certain set of character qualities.
What do poodle genetics bring into each new bloodline?
- Poodles have a no to low -shedding coat which carries over to the new puppies.
- Poodles are extremely intelligent dogs.
- Poodles also pass on the qualities of their hypoallergenic coat.
- Poodles are adored by many. They come in many standard breed sizes and colors.
When we cross a pair of our breeding dogs we take into careful consideration their health, their temperament and how each dog will add to the poodle character in our doodle cross. Poodles tend to have a very intelligent and regal personality. We add the Old English Sheepdog for a fun family dog that is known for silly antics and stealing hearts. We add the English Cream Golden Retriever to get a puppy that is of top intelligence, absolute beauty and can preform service tasks.
Our passion in the doodle breeding is what we can add to the health and happiness of our pups. We only breed an F1 or F1b dog here at Open Range. An F1 means the dog is a 50% - 50% cross and the F1b is a 75% - 25% cross. We do this so we do not lose the characteristics of either dog. It allows us to know the temperament and size of our puppies with out a doubt. It also allows us to give quality dogs that maintain the exact personalities that we have bred for.
Old English Sheepdogs
Old English Sheepdogs are the ULTIMATE loving family dog. Sheepdogs are known for their herding genetics; however, in the home all an OES wants is to love on their family.
What qualities come from Old English Sheepdogs?
- OES have hypoallergenic coats.
- OES are extremely docile and even as puppies are a bit lazy.
- OES are the ultimate care-giving dog. Our OES are full of so much love it would be difficult to imagine life without them.
English Cream Retrievers
Golden Retrievers are a working dog, loyal, intelligent, with beautiful coats. They have so much personality and are one of the top rated family dogs.
Goldendoodles are Open Range's dog of choice for our Service Dog Training Program.
