History

A Goldendoodle:

 Is a Golden Retriever and Poodle cross.  Goldendoodles, also  called Golden Poos,  Goldie Poos, or Groodles, have been bred in North America and Australia since the early to mid-1990's.  Since the smaller poodle hybrids had been  such a success in filling the niche for small, allergy  friendly family pets,  Golden Retriever breeders decided to try a breeding with  a standard poodle for a  larger family pet.  The quick rise of the popularity of Goldendoodles is due to  the dogs themselves.  They are a most marvelous hybrid.  

Close the deal

Both parent lines come from hunters and water dogs.  The physical appearance of the Goldendoodle runs anywhere from a shaggy-looking retriever to a curl-relaxed poodle, but typically falls somewhere in between.  The length when left uncllipped grows to about 4 to 8 inches.  The color of the coat can be cream, gold, apricot, chocolate, gray, black, parti or phantom. 

The Term "Goldendoodle"

'Goldendoodle' appeared soon after the introduction of the Labradoodle by Wally Conron.  The earliest known use of the name 'Goldendoodle' comes from the Neelands family in the United States in 1992.  The family started calling their dog, Sugar, a 'Goldendoodle' in response to a question from a passerby who asked, "is that a labradoodle?".  They replied, "No, it's a Goldendoodle", and have referred to her as such ever since.
