The Doodle is the cross between two popular dog breeds – the Golden Retriever and the Poodle, for example. They have become very popular due to reduced shedding and their outstanding dispositions. Doodles are defined by their affectionate personalities and trainability. They are considered by many to be the perfect dog.
Golden Retrievers generally have wonderful personalities, are good with kids, and visitors, and are fairly easily trained. However, they shed constantly. The addition of the genes of the Poodle reduces the shedding, and actually increases the trainability of the resulting puppies.
The advantage of crossing two unrelated purebred lines, like the Golden Retriever and the Poodle, is referred to as hybrid vigor. Hybrid vigor means that cross breeds like the Goldendoodle are stronger and healthier than the parent lines.
If you suffer from asthma or allergies, and thought you would never be able to have a canine family member, take heart. A Doodle may be your answer.
