This is a generalized description of the Goldendoodle, a cross (or hybrid) breed of Golden Retriever and Poodle parentage. Individual dogs may vary widely in appearance, behavior, and temperament.

A cross between the Golden Retriever and the Poodle, the Goldendoodle hybrid (also called Golden Poo, Goldiepoo, or Groodle) is credited to breeders in Australia who wanted to create an intelligent, people-loving, low-allergy dog similar to the Cockapoo but larger in size. The original intent was to develop a suitable service dog for disabled individuals with allergies.

Larger Goldendoodles will do better in homes with some yard to romp in, but will do fine in smaller homes if they are taken on one brisk daily walk. Toy or miniature Goldendoodles will do fine in an apartment, and may even be paper-trained for convenience.

The Goldendoodles coat requires a moderate amount of grooming, and should be brushed often enough to keep it free from tangles. The longer hair on the body may be clipped short to make the coat easier to care for, especially if your Goldendoodle spends much time playing outdoors. Goldendoodles shed little, if any, and are considered hypo-allergenic dogs.
