Breed Information 

Goldendoodle Generations

Overall, goldendoodles are classified and well-known as a designer breed. They are characterized as highly intelligent, gentle, and affectionate dogs with an easy-going temperament, which is part of the reason we personally love this breed so much.  They have an extremely social personality and love to be with their fur parents.

​

  • F1 (First Generation): A direct cross between a purebred Golden Retriever and a purebred Poodle. These Goldendoodles typically have a 50/50 genetic split, often resulting in a mix of both breeds' traits.

​

  • F1B (First Generation Backcross): A cross between an F1 Goldendoodle and a purebred Poodle. This generation tends to have more Poodle traits, such as a curlier coat, making them more hypoallergenic.

​

  • F1bb (First Generation Backcross-backcross):  are the result of an F1b Goldendoodle and a Poodle (or a Golden Retriever in rare cases).

​

We specialize in breeding designer toys and miniatures (see Sizing Chart Below)  in F1b and F1bb  generations due to the demand for non-shedding,  smaller and more hypoallergenic dogs.

Goldendoodle Sizing Chart

Knowing the weights and sizes a puppy will be as an adult is a little bit of a guessing game! We can NOT guarantee the exact weight your puppy will be in adulthood. We can make an educated guess on the puppy’s weight, as it depends on the size of the Dam and Sire. They are usually a range of weights between the two.

 

So, for example, if the Sire weighs 12lbs and the Dam weighs 20lbs the average predicted weight of the litter will be approximately 16lbs.

Grooming/Coat Maintenance

Doodles are often recognized for their beautiful and unique coats; however, these coats do not come without consistent upkeep on the owner's part. Due to their poodle lineage, F1bb are more likely to be curly than wavy, which means that while they are very light to non-shedding, they do require consistent and daily grooming at home grooming as well as professional grooming in order to maintain a healthy coat. 

 

For coats longer than 1-inch: professional grooming should be done every 2-4 weeks with daily brushing. 

For coats shorter than 1-inch: professional grooming should be done every 6-8 weeks with 2-3 brushings at home per week.
