10 week old Aussiedoodle pup. A good age to start getting them used to grooming. Many Aussiedoodles are hypoallergenic, however, that is not a guarantee. Because you are crossing a breed that sheds (the Aussie) and one that doesn't (the Poodle) there still is a very small chance to get some shedding. However, if they do shed, it usually is minimal.
Most allergy sufferers are actually reacting to pet dander rather than hair. If you keep your Aussiedoodle brushed and clean, give regular baths, etc. that usually helps tremendously.
Aussiedoodles are a breed that needs regular grooming to keep them mat free so potential Aussiedoodle owners should plan to groom their pup on a weekly basis. This also provides good bonding time and gives you a chance to look for any skin or coat issues your pup may have.
I like to use a good pin brush to gently brush through my dog's coat. A metal toothed comb is also a good one to have. If you have mats in your dog's coat, you can also use a dematting tool with bladed teeth, which usually does the trick. Just try and be gentle as you work the mats out. You want this to be a good experience for your pup. A good bath with a quality shampoo and coat conditioner prior to removing any mats may also help and may help keep your pups coat tangle free in the future.
