Questions & Answers
A Goldendoodle is a hybrid breed of dog that is created from the combination of two popular breeds: a Golden Retriever and a Poodle. Originally developed in the 1990s in North America and Australia, Goldendoodles are highly valued for their intelligence, loving and affectionate nature, and low-shedding coats. They can make terrific family pets, thriving in all sorts of lifestyles from busy to laid-back, and can adapt to different environments due to their friendly personalities.
Goldendoodles can come with a wide range of price tags depending on their breeder, location, age, size, color, and lineage - just to name a few! Unregistered Goldendoodles, who don't come with the breed passport, are often cheaper ranging from $1,000 to $2,500. However, registering your pup often comes with a much higher price tag, ranging from $3,000 up to as much as $5,000.
Yes, Goldendoodles are relatively easy to train. With the intelligence of a Golden Retriever and the trainability of a Poodle, they have the best of both worlds - meaning that gaining obedience and learning new commands are streamlined processes. Additionally, their eagerness to please makes them quite responsive to positivity which has been linked to success in producing desired behavior. The added bonus of having well socialized Goldendoodles, who are used to many people and different settings, also encourages their adherence to training.
Generally, the average lifespan of a Goldendoodle is between 10-15 years. However, this lifespan can vary depending on individual genetics and lifestyle. Providing good quality care such as regular veterinary check-ups, a balanced diet and regular exercise can lead to a longer lifespan and good health. In order to maximize a Goldendoodle's lifespan, it is best to keep it up-to-date on vaccinations, as well as feed them a nutritious and balanced diet free of common allergens in order to prevent health issues.
Full-grown Goldendoodles can vary in size depending on the size of the parent breeds. Goldendoodles come in four sizes: teacup, miniature, medium, and standard. Teacup Goldendoodles can generally weigh between 5 and 15 pounds, whereas miniature Goldendoodles range from 15 to 40 pounds. A medium-sized Goldendoodle typically ranges from 40 to 75 pounds in weight, and a large standard can reach upwards of 75 pounds.
Goldendoodles typically have a coat that comes in a variety of textures and lengths, ranging from a short, straight coat, to a long, wavy coat. Depending on their parent breeds, the consistency tends to vary, with curly coats being more common, however more low shedding and hypoallergenic varieties of Goldendoodle come from breeding a poodle as the donor parent. To maintain a healthy coat, regardless of texture or length, regular grooming is essential to minimize matting and snarls.
Goldendoodles need a lot of exercise to stay happy and healthy. In general, at least 30 minutes of activity, such as walking and playing, per day is necessary to get their energy out and help body and mind stay sharp. Younger Goldendoodles may require up to 1-2 hours of exercise per day, depending on the individual dog’s size, age, and energy levels.
Goldendoodles are wonderful family pets, and they make great companions for children. They are very patient and understand children’s interests, as well as their lapses in following behavior protocols. The Golden's affection and enthusiasm allow them to build strong bonds with their owners, children, and family. Moreover, because of their intelligence and their natural ability to learn quickly, children are able to teach them many tricks. Because of their gentle, friendly nature, Goldendoodles are wonderful additions to your household when teaching kids the importance of responsible dog ownership.
