The AussieDoodle is a crossbreed, the result of a deliberate mating between two different breeds, the Australian Shepherd and a Poodle. AussieDoodles have a moderate to high activity level. They need a good walk or active playtime each day, and they are athletic enough to participate in such dog sports as agility, fly ball, obedience and rally. They can also be excellent therapy dogs. Both of the breeds used to create AussieDoodles are considered to be canine Einsteins. It’s to your benefit to give the AussieDoodle a job that will keep him busy, Teach him to find and bring you things, pull your gardening equipment around the yard, or anything else you can think of. Keeping him occupied will ensure that he doesn’t go off and find his own (likely destructive) entertainment. But if you begin socialization and training early and use positive reinforcement techniques such as praise, play and food rewards, you will be rewarded with a wonderful companion.

Poodles have a reputation for being hypoallergenic, meaning that they can be tolerated by people who have allergies to dogs. Because they have the Poodle in their heritage, AussieDoodles are also sometimes promoted as being hypoallergenic. But allergies are caused not by a particular dog coat type but by dander, the dead skin cells that are shed by all dogs.There is no scientific evidence that any breed or crossbreed is more or less allergenic than any other dog. Some people with mild allergies react less severely to some particular dogs  AussieDoodle puppies are super smart and adorable, and it’s one of the reasons they are so popular.
