Grooming

Mini Portidoodles are hypoallergenic, non-shedding, and generally have medium grooming needs. 
Their coats should be brushed every other day with a bristle brush and can be bathed with dog shampoo once every 2 or 3 months. The ears should be cleaned monthly with an ear cleaner specifically made for dogs, and their teeth should be brushed at least 3 times each week.  

Their nails should be trimmed monthly. They make great pets for people who are allergic to dogs because they don't shed as much as other breeds. They also have a more basic level of grooming requirements than other Poodle types, although they still require regular nail trims and ear cleanings. 

You should also check their ears regularly for signs of infection such as redness, discharge, or odor. If you notice these symptoms, take your dog to the vet right away because they can develop into more serious problems if left untreated. 

Exercise Needs

Mini Portidoodle dogs are energetic, so they need plenty of exercise. A good daily walk will help keep them happy and healthy. These dogs also enjoy playing with their owners, but they love to get out and play with other dogs as well. They are very sociable and love to play with other dogs. They can be good at sports such as agility, rally, and tracking. 

They have a lot of energy and love to run, chase, or fetch. They are also good swimmers, so if you live near a pool or beach, they will enjoy swimming with you. These dogs also enjoy playing Frisbee or chasing after a ball in the yard or park. 

Health

Due to their hybrid vigor, Mini Portidoodles are less likely to suffer from common health issues that occur in other dog breeds. Hip dysplasia is a common ailment, but it's much less likely to affect them. Cataracts can sometimes occur, but they're treatable with surgery and there's a low chance of them appearing in the first place. Hypothyroidism, or an underactive thyroid gland, is also a possibility, but only in extremely rare cases, and the signs of hypothyroidism are easily identified. Mini Portidoodle breeders limit health concerns by breeding for good genetic health. 

Lifespan

Some dogs live longer than others, but the biggest factor affecting their lifespan is whether they are raised like members of the family, with love and care. If a dog is a happy, beloved pet, he can often live for more than 15 years. The average lifespan of this breed is between 12 and 15-16 years.  

Training

The Mini Portidoodle is a wonderful breed of dog. They are highly intelligent and very eager to please, which makes them extremely trainable. They are also highly social, so they will be eager to learn anything that makes their life with you easier. The best thing about them is that they are incredibly easy to train when using positive reinforcement. They are eager-to-please dogs that love to receive praise, so training them can be as simple as rewarding good behavior when you see it.  

Positive reinforcement works especially well because they have an incredible desire to make you happy and please you, so offering them a treat when they do something right will help them learn faster.  

Treats can also serve double duty as rewards and training tools: if your dog is afraid of thunder or fireworks, they can be used to reward good behavior while also serving as a distraction during scary events. They love learning new things, so any sort of agility training or obedience will be fun for them. Agility classes are a great way to get both physical exercise and mental stimulation for your dog, and obedience.
