- Our Aussiedoodle is the smartest, sweetest, and most compassionate puppy I have had. After 2 weeks she can sit, lay down, stand up, and even know the command to leave it. We are working on Shake Paw. She loves to play she eats wet food and dry food sometimes. She loves to give kisses. Bella is very careful near him (our cat).
