Q. When was breeding Goldendooles started?
A. In the 1990s, breeders in both North America and Australia began crossing golden retrievers with standard poodles.The original purpose of the cross was to attempt to develop guide dogs suitable for visually impaired individuals with allergies. The goldendoodle is sometimes called a designer dog.
Q. Do Goldendoodles shed?
A. A person may select a goldendoodle because he or she loves the golden retriever temperament, but would prefer a dog that sheds less hair. Although not all goldendoodles exhibit the non-shedding coat type of the standard poodle, most goldendoodles do have a low to non-shedding coat. The goldendoodle is usually tolerable for people with allergies, especially a goldendoodle with a completely non-shedding coat. The goldendoodle may shed less than a golden retriever, but the degree of shedding will vary from dog to dog. .While some breeders claim that the goldendoodle is a hypoallergenic dog, no studies have proven that any canine is completely hypoallergenic. From our experience of living with F1 and F1B Goldendoodles, both shed about the same- which is very minimal and I would compare it to the rate of humans replacing their hair every so often.
Q. What are the grooming requirements for a Goldendoodle
A. Grooming requirements are as varied as coat types. A dog with a coat that sheds less will require more grooming than one that sheds more often. Generally speaking, it is time consuming if you were to do it yourself and it is worth every penny spent at a professional groomer's salon. Grooming schedule should be done every 8 weeks at the very least.
Q. What is the temperament of the a Goldendoodle?
A. Because poodles and golden retrievers are both highly intelligent, golden doodles are also very trainable. Goldendoodles are usually very affectionate with people and other pets. They are human-oriented dogs, and tend to develop a strong bond with their owners and companions. Most goldendoodles are calm and easy going, but they are active dogs that do require exercise. Some goldendoodles like to swim, but not all. They tend to be great family pets and are known to be especially good with children.
