How to Pick The Perfect Puppy

Are you ready to add a new bundle of joy to your family? We understand that choosing the right puppy can feel overwhelming with the myriad of options available. That's why we're here to help you make an informed decision! As breeders, we want nothing but the best match for both you and our adorable puppies. Here's a little guide to assist you in finding your perfect four-legged companion:

Research, research research…

Take some time to educate yourself about different breeds, their temperament, size, energy levels, and overall compatibility with your lifestyle. It's essential to find a breed that aligns with your family dynamics and living situation. The last thing we want is for the breed as a whole to not be a good fit for your family. The American Kennel Club is a great resource for this if you’re looking to adopt a purebred from another breeder, or of course you’re welcome to view more information about the breeds we have here at Red Carpet Doodles!

Consider Your Lifestyle!

Are you an active person who loves outdoor adventures? Or maybe you prefer cozy evenings at home? Each puppy has its unique needs and activity levels, so choose a puppy that can keep up with your daily routine. If you’re not sure what you’re looking for, share more with us about your personal activity levels, so we can help you narrow your search! We do our best to keep our personality descriptions on our website up-to-date as we watch our puppies grow!

Meet the puppies in person!

Quinn & Rover’s Summer 2023 Litter

Don't be afraid to visit and interact with the pups to observe their behavior. Are they friendly, curious, or more reserved? Each personality type requires different types of care and training, so pick the one that matches your preferences. Older puppies (4 months+) are generally harder to open up within a short 15-minute visit, but Younger Puppies excel with that first visit as they’re still learning more everyday about what’s normal and experiencing their first’s! We love interacting with our puppies, and picking one out in person when you have the opportunity, is so much more rewarding than discussing back in forth what the best fit may be!

Good Health is Essential…

Whether you adopt from us or another breeder, ensure that you receive detailed health records and a health guarantee for the well-being of your furry family member. Healthy genetics are essential for a long and happy life together. All of the parents here at Red Carpet Doodles have been fully health-tested for their breed’s respective health panels, and each of our puppies come with a final vet check, up-to-date vaccinations, and a health-guarantee!

A new feature on our website is our momma pages, linked on our Meet the Parents page, and under each puppy listing! Each page includes health information about the mother, a personality description, and their weight. We also include pictures of puppies from previous litters, and testimonials from our puppy buyers, so that you can see what you’re getting into by adopting a puppy from their litter!

Trust your gut!

Sometimes that special connection is undeniable, even if it doesn't fit all the criteria on your checklist. If you feel an instant bond with a particular puppy, it may be a sign that they're meant to be a part of your family. Oftentimes we have puppy buyers who are interested in a specific puppy, but when seeing puppies from that same litter, they’ll spend upwards of an hour or more deciding whether they liked that puppy the most, or a sibling. More often than not, they end up going with the puppy they were initially interested in! It’s important to trust your gut and go with what feels the most right!

Remember, choosing a puppy is a long-term commitment, and finding a compatible match is crucial for a harmonious life together. As breeders, our mission is to assist you in navigating this journey and ensure a seamless transition into your loving home.

Feel free to reach out to us via email with any questions you may have about our puppies. We're here to guide you and help you find your perfect furry companion!

Puppies of the Week

Quinn’s babies are so sweet! They turned 6 weeks old, and we put them in the grass for the first time this week, and they LOVED it! Now is the perfect time to pick between the pups in this litter. We have a good idea of their personalities, and we’re excited to get them into their new homes while they’re still so young!
