Goldendoodle Puppy Supplies: What We Recommend for a Healthy, Happy Start

At Doodle Bliss, we believe every Goldendoodle puppy deserves a confident, comfortable beginning. Over the years, we have refined a trusted list of Goldendoodle puppy supplies that consistently support training, development, and daily life. We use these same products in our own program, and we recommend that every new Goldendoodle family begin with the essentials on this list. Because we have personal experience with each item, we can confidently say they make a meaningful difference during those first exciting weeks.

Goldendoodles are intelligent, affectionate, and eager to learn. They thrive when they have the right environment and tools. The supplies we recommend help create a smooth transition and promote healthy habits from the start.

These Goldendoodle puppy supplies support:

• Gentle structure and training success

• Proper mental and physical development

• A sense of comfort and emotional security

• Fewer common challenges such as chewing and boredom

When families begin with the right foundation, the adjustment period becomes much easier for both puppy and home.

Each category below reflects products we use daily at Doodle Bliss, along with reasons why we continue to recommend them to Goldendoodle families nationwide.

A supportive crate helps Goldendoodle puppies feel safe and grounded. We have tested many styles, and we always choose one with a divider panel so it can expand as the puppy grows. Goldendoodles mature quickly, and a full-size crate from the beginning prevents unnecessary replacements.

What we look for:

• Sturdy construction

• Easy-clean base

• Divider panel

• Flexible door options

Because we use these crate styles ourselves, we know they promote smooth potty training and healthy routines

We want puppies to settle comfortably, so we use beds that offer orthopedic support without being overly plush. Goldendoodles appreciate a bed that molds gently around them while still providing structure. Washable covers are a must for cleanliness and long-term use.

After trying many options, we can confidently say the right bed helps puppies relax faster and feel secure in new surroundings.

At Doodle Bliss, training starts from the moment a puppy begins interacting with people. Because Goldendoodles respond beautifully to positive reinforcement, we rely on soft, bite-sized training treats and simple tools that keep sessions rewarding and fun.

The training basics we use:

• Treat pouch for easy access

• Soft, low-calorie treats

• Clicker for marking behaviors

These tools support fast learning, build trust, and make early training enjoyable for everyone involved.

Be sure to get puppy treats for your new babies…the adult version is too fatty for their little bellies.

We have tested countless chew toys over the years, and only a few meet the standards we want for Goldendoodles. Teething can lead to unwanted chewing, so we choose toys that provide the right level of resistance while remaining gentle on developing jaws.

Because we use these toys every day, we know they ease teething discomfort and keep puppies mentally settled.

Mealtime structure plays a big role in a puppy’s daily routine. Slow-feed bowls help Goldendoodles eat calmly and support healthy digestion. For long-term use, stainless-steel bowls are excellent for hygiene, durability, and easy cleaning.

Weighted or non-skid bowls reduce spills, and we have found them especially helpful during the earliest feeding stages.

We always begin with an adjustable harness to protect a puppy’s neck and support early leash training. Goldendoodles love exploring, so a well-fitted harness makes outdoor walks safer and much more comfortable.

Must-have features:

• Adjustable straps

• Soft inner lining

• Front and back clip options

• Lightweight feel

Because we train puppies with these harness styles every day, we know they make walking and handling smoother for new families.

 Goldendoodles have gorgeous coats that require consistent care. We use grooming tools that make early brushing pleasant and effective. When puppies are introduced to grooming in a positive way, it prevents matting and sets them up for a lifetime of comfort.

Our grooming essentials:

• Slicker brush

• Metal comb

• Puppy-safe shampoo

• Nail clippers or grinder

These supplies help families maintain coat health and build a routine that puppies genuinely enjoy.

Goldendoodles are thinkers and problem-solvers. Because we work with them daily, we see how much they benefit from enrichment toys designed to keep their minds active. Puzzle feeders, snuffle mats, and stuffable rubber toys quickly become favorites.

We recommend these toys because they reduce boredom, build confidence, and promote calm behavior—especially during alone-time.

Depending on your routine, doggy doors can make early training easier. We also love using puppy potty bells at the door because Goldendoodles pick up on them remarkably quickly. With consistent reinforcement, many puppies begin signaling within days.

These tools give puppies a clear, positive way to communicate their needs.

A playpen is one of the most helpful items we use at Doodle Bliss. It gives puppies room to explore while keeping them safe and secure. A pen prevents overstimulation and supports structured freedom as puppies grow.

We rely on lightweight, easy-to-move pens that work both indoors and outdoors, and they make daily management simple for new families.

Be sure to get a height appropriate for your puppy size!
