Goldendoodles are very popular! Previous litters of Goldendoodle Pups
Forest is one of Amber and Winchester pups. He is a big boy now and doing very well in his new home!!
With the great loving friendly personality of a Golden Retriever and the Intelligence of a Poodle, not to mention the non shedding coat, the Goldendoodle has become my most popular Breed! They are generally easy to train, and full of love & personality. The Goldendoodles like their parents make great family companions, but they are water or hunting dogs too. They are very devoted and loyal to their Families, making them excellent pets. Goldendoodles were first deliberately bred in North America around the mid 1990s. Their non shedding coats and ability to live with families with allergies, has also contributed to making them very popular.
Goldendoodle compared to a Labradoodle - In my experience the Goldendoodles are a little more laid back, or calmer. They are just a bit easier to train, and are usually a real good choice for a family who has never raised a pup before. Labradoodles take a bit more exercise and activity! I think in the long run Labradoodles are bit smarter and more personable, but require more training. Great family pets, for the active family. Great pets for runners looking for a jogging partner!! Having said that I believe personality type of each pup is very important in any breed and can vary within the same litter. Both Breeds are very intelligent and make great family pets. You must remember they have a great start here with us, but it is up their new families to make them their perfect family pet. You can't just give your pup affection. Discipline and training with consistency makes the perfect angel. You and your entire household must be committed to your puppies needs before considering bringing a pup home.
The Goldendoodle coat is Beautiful, but High maintenance! Their hair tends to get much longer, and thicker than the Labradoodle. Labradoodle coats can vary from flat and straight easy to maintain coats, to fluffy and curly, thicker coats. The more Poodle like (fluffy or curly) the less shedding for a Labradoodle. With the Goldendoodle there is more consistency in coat types, and there is no shedding. Goldendoodles have a thicker fuller coat when compared to a Labradoodle.
F1 = 50% Golden Retriever and 50% Poodle - This is a Golden Retriever to a Poodle, The first cross resulting in healthier offspring! This is called Hybrid Vigor. Coat types are usually wavy and shaggy, with less curl than the F1B. In my experience the Goldendoodle sheds far less than the Labradoodle. This is not the best cross for people with severe allergies, but is usually fine for normal allergy sufferers.
F1B = 25% Golden Retriever and 75% Poodle (F1 Goldendoodle Crossed back to the Poodle) - This is also a hybrid Breed. Generally a little more curl in their coats and thicker. Ever seen a Goldendoodle with long ringlets? This was probably a F1B Goldendoodle. In my experience F1B's are a little smaller than my F1's. F1B is the MOST likely of any to be non shedding and more Allergy friendly. However in my experince F1 and F1B Goldendoodles DO NOT SHED!
Coat Types - Soft curl, medium curls, or the wavy/shaggy look! Goldendoodles coats are beautiful, soft and non shedding, but some of the longer coats can be high maintenance.
Goldendoodles can have very long hair and you will need to brush them regularly to keep them from matting. It is not easy to get down to the undercoat, but you can do it yourself with the right tools. You will need a slicker brush and a de-matting tool. Contact me for more information on how to keep your Goldendoodle coat beautiful. Plus I groom Goldendoodles.
The colors can be white, cream, gold, apricot, red, black or chocolate.
The Size Can vary a lot! The size of your Doodle will depend on their parents
