Known by a variety of humorous names, such as
Goldie Poos, Golden Poos and Groodles, the Goldendoodle is the
hybrid offspring of a Golden Retriever and Poodle Cross.
A unique family pet, they are known for being extremely intelligent,
easy to train dogs, combined with the benefits of having a coat
that is less-troublesome to those who suffer from asthma.
While the Goldendoodle does shed, it is a relatively small amount,
when compared to most canine companions.

Is the Goldendoodle the Right
Dog For You?
If you don’t mind making the occasional trip
to the groomer’s, or have no problems with whipping out a brush
once a week, you’re sure to find the Golden doodle a very fun
and affectionate friend. While they do require a moderate
amount of exercise and are very social dogs, you’re sure to
find that this is ideal if you have a family with children asking
for a puppy. Goldendoodle puppies love human playmates
just as much as their littermates and the ease with which you
can train a Goldendoodle makes them an excellent candidate for
learning all sorts of fun and entertaining tricks. Even
better, first generation Goldendoodles are well-suited for people
with mild allergies and, if you have severe pet-related allergies,
you will be delighted to find that many allergy sufferers have
found that the backcross Goldendoodle (the offspring of a Goldendoodle
x Poodle cross) is a wonderful individual that many people,
even with severe allergies, can often welcome into their home.
In a nutshell, if you have the time for a dog
and the heart to receive a lot of love in return, chances are
that a Goldendoodle dog or puppy may be the perfect addition
to your family.
