As a vet tech, please don't get a goddamn doodle thing unless you have 5k+ saved, preferably 10k. They will absolutely eat things they shouldn't, multiple loving times and need expensive vet visits or expensive surgery or also get weird autoimmune disorders that require a week in the ER.

Failing that, they will jerk when you cut their nails and bleed everywhere so we have to bandage it for $200 when you panic at 12 am (why are you cutting their nails at 11 pm?) or jerk when you try to cut their mats out with scissors and we will have to sew that poo poo up for like $700 when you could've gone to a groomer for less than $100, you loving lazy rear end in a top hat.

I swear, doodles make up like 1/4 of our ER vet visits and most of them are a year old or under. Also most people don't socialize their doodle because it's a naturally doofy dog and boy, do they bite when you get out of the comfort zone.

They are super cute and floofy. They are usually friendly dumbasses. THEY ARE NOT WORTH IT.

You want a good, healthy dog? Get some rando shelter dog that bites the poo poo out of people non-stop. That dog will live forever.
