Goldendoodle Training

Goldendoodles, the offspring of a poodle and a golden retriever, make great family dogs. They have the intelligence and sensitivity of poodles and the energy and loving nature of golden retrievers. Their intelligence and desire to please makes Goldendoodle training fun and straightforward.

Although our training programs work for any dog and breed, we recognize that every dog is different and has different needs. We've rounded up some tips for training Goldendoodles to help you with your new furry friend. Using these tips and working with a Dog Training Elite trainer will help your Goldendoodle become a loyal companion.

Start Training Young

The best time to start training your Goldendoodle is from day one! If you bring your new four-legged family member home as a puppy, we recommend you start goldendoodle puppy training as soon as possible. Puppies are eager to learn and please, so starting commands from a young age will build a firm foundation for more training as they grow.

We offer training programs for puppies as young as eight weeks. But don't worry if you start training with your Goldendoodle later in life. Our tried–and–true Dog Training Elite training programs work for dogs of any age.

    I have used Dog Training elite for 3 of my dogs, most recently my 7 month old Cane Corso. Paul did a great job training her and giving me great tips to keep her in check and to keep her improving. She is still very much a work in progress, but she has come very far in 8 weeks. Paul met us at my office and was flexible with training dates. Mary trained my other Cane Corso and took an extremely stubborn dog(she was already 2 1/2 and had some bad habits) and taught her to listen and now she is rarely on leash and I can take her pretty much anywhere. Mary also trained my wife's service dog and she is a rock star.

    Would 100% recommend Vince for dog training! I live an hour from where he is located but he worked with finding times for training and was flexible. He is knowledgeable about dogs, behavior, and training. My dog started training a little older than is typical and I was worried she wouldn’t be successful but I saw significant improvement after just the first session.

    Dog Training Elite has been a huge blessing for myself, my wife, and our two pups, Asher and Jaxson. Asher has always had aggression issues and Jaxson has always been scared of his own shadow. These training sessions have showed us that Jaxson is dependent on Asher and that Asher feels like he has to protect Jaxson. Today, we have much more control over Asher and can finally trust to bring him into public settings. He is even letting people approach Jaxson without issue! Jaxson is so much more brave, and is comfortable being around people and other dogs. The best part is, we get to continue going to group sessions every Saturday, and can contact Dog Training Elite any time our pups need extra help. Asher and Jaxson will continue to grow! Thank you Tina and Lily for all you have done for our family! God bless!

    Carrie with Dog Training Elite West Michigan is amazing! I highly recommend her. When we adopted our dog, Charlie, from the humane society, she was so afraid that she was hiding under a table and wouldn't even look at us. She has been afraid of everyone that comes into the house and we have not been able to take her anywhere with us as she was too afraid to get out of the car and was afraid of everything around her. We finished our last private lesson today with Carrie and Charlie has come so far. We went to Lowes last week and out into town today. Charlie did so well. Initially, she was a little anxious, but when put to work, she listened and focused on us and was able to successfully get through the lessons in public with confidence. That was huge! We are so excited!!! At first, I was a bit concerned about the E-collar, afraid it would make our afraid/anxious dog worse, but it did not. We tested the collar on ourselves before putting it on the dog. It gets your attention, but it is not harmful. The E-collar was a great tool in training Charlie and she learned so quickly. She never showed any signs of fear or of being hurt by the collar. I am so amazed and pleased by Charlie's progress as well as all we have learned about handling Charlie under the direction of Carrie. Group classes weren't even imaginable previously, now we are ready to take Charlie and are looking forward to them. Charlie's progress is truly amazing. She is now in a state that I previously only dreamt about. The training has seemed to also create a much tighter bond and connection between us and Charlie, which is so wonderful. Carrie is wonderful to work with. She is very professional and has been very patient with us and Charlie. She is great at communicating and answering all our questions. She has wonderful, upbeat energy and we looked forward to our weekly classes with her. She has a lot of knowledge and is very talented with dogs. I will always be grateful to Carrie for helping us get a confident, well trained dog that can go places with us.

    We are incredibly happy with the training we received from Dog Training Elite Los Angeles. Humphrey, our newly-adopted senior dog, was being aggressive toward, and biting certain people. We were at a loss as the situation felt uncontrollable. Our trainer, Clayton, was patient, kind, and firm, giving me insight, guidance, and, more importantly, confidence as an owner and trainer. Humphrey, the trained dog, now listens and defers to me in such a powerful way, making our bond as human and canine incredibly strong. We love our Humphrey so much, and we now have the confidence, eagerness, and willingness to move forward introducing him to our family, friends, and neighbors. We can highly recommend Dog Training Elite Los Angeles if you are struggling with a dog at home.

    Matt had a clear idea of how to best train my deaf dog. He spent a great deal of time explaining how she would be trained.

    Gus has been training with Red, Raina, and the Dog Training Elite team since he was 9 weeks old. We could not be happier with the puppy training Gus has received, and we are looking forward to starting group classes soon. He has transformed from a crazy, often frustrating puppy to a companionable and trustworthy friend in just a few short months with their help. He’s ready to keep learning and growing under their steady and gentle training.

    Fantastic experience with Scott and Jen! Helping us take back the control of our middle aged dogs at our own home where the behaviors are seen naturally. No boarding or over charging, honest and fair estimates. And giving you and your dog their full attention at every session, moving at the pace you are comfortable with. It’s never too late to teach your old dogs new tricks with their help!

    We have worked with Red for the past few months and can see such a beautiful change in our dog. He is less nervous and listens so much better. Red is very thorough and patient with us as we learn the commands. We love working with Red! He has made us love our dog!!

    I can’t say enough great things about Vince at Dog Training Elite! Over the course of our six sessions, I’ve seen a huge improvement not only in Scottie’s behavior, but also in my own confidence as a dog owner. Before working with Vince, Scottie was very dog reactive and difficult to walk on a leash, which made everyday outings stressful. Thanks to Vince’s guidance and training approach, Scottie has made incredible progress - walks are now much more controlled and enjoyable, and his reactivity has improved significantly. Since Scottie is now two, Vince helped us break his stubborn patterns. What really stood out to me was how available and supportive Vince was throughout the entire process. Anytime I had questions or was unsure how to handle a specific behavior, he was quick to respond and always took the time to talk things through. He provided practical, effective strategies that made a real difference, especially in tougher situations. Thanks to Vince’s expertise, Scottie is more well-behaved, and I feel much more confident handling different scenarios. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely caring dog training support!

Begin with Simple Commands

Read More
Read Less

The best way to start training—whether as a puppy or a grown dog—is with simple commands. Starting with simple and easy–to–understand commands will build confidence and trust with your dog. This is essential with a sensitive dog like a goldendoodle. We suggest starting with commands like “sit,” “heel,” “down,” and “come” Once you and your pup have these commands down, it will be easier for both of you to move on to more complex and fun commands.

Work on Eliminating Unwanted Behaviors

Read More
Read Less

Although Goldendoodles have many desirable traits, a few undesirable behaviors are associated with them. The behaviors that we often see are trouble with house training, jumping, and barking. Once you have developed a good training foundation with simple commands, you can start working on eliminating unwanted behaviors.

The trainers at Dog Training Elite can work with you and your Goldendoodle to solve specific behavioral problems. Using our balanced training theory, we can eliminate unwanted behavior.

More Training Tips!

Goldendoodle Breed Training

Here are some additional tips you can follow when training you goldendoodle puppy:

Goldendoodles are very interactive and energetic animals, so socializing them with other dogs is essential to ensuring they are well behaved. Starting socialization at a young age is beneficial, but it can be accomplished at any age. Dog Training Elite offers group obedience classes, which are a great way to continue Goldendoodle dog training while socializing your dog in a safe environment.
Most goldendoodles are relatively easy to train, but remaining consistent is essential. When training any dog, you must show your dog that you expect a specific behavior to happen every time. In return, show your dog that you will be consistent with teaching and responding to incorrect behaviors. Consistency during your goldendoodle dog training will help your pup learn correct behavior quickly.

One of the most important things to remember when training your Goldendoodle is to be patient. Training a puppy or teaching an older dog new commands can be challenging and take some time. Have patience with your dog and yourself, and you will be successful!
