ABOUT Standard Goldendoodles

At around 50-70lbs fully grown, and about 20-24in shoulder height, Standard Goldendoodles are quite a large breed. They will be too big to fit on your lap, although that won’t stop them from trying! They are a medium-to-high energy and require loads on mental enrichment. Due to being half poodle and half golden

retriever, they are likely to be a hypoallergenic or minimal-shedding dog. Standard Goldendoodles love their daily walks, playtime, and challenging games - after which they are normally happy to snuggle up under you or play couch potato. Be warned – they love to attack with kisses!

**Please don't adopt one unless you are willing and able to walk, play, and provide mental stimulation for your pup every day.**

As a breeder, I chose Standard Goldendoodles because they combine two of America’s most prestigious, intelligent, and well-known breeds, the Standard Poodle and the Standard Golden Retriever. Poodles are known for their intelligence, classy demeanor, silliness and affection with its owner. Golden Retrievers are known for their loyalty, easy trainability, fetching/retrieving characteristics, affection, and problem-solving skills. Golden Retrievers are also known for being some of the biggest drama kings and queens in the world, so if you love a good laugh, this is your perfect designer hybrid! They are also bred in accord with natural doggy design (no squished faces, wonky legs, or short airways), so they have the best chance to be mechanically healthy. In addition, we do all we can to prevent genetic illness in our dogs by never inbreeding.

Standard Goldendoodles are a non-to-minimal-shedding breed ideal for people with mild dog allergies that prefer to keep the dog groomed rather than clean up hair. Many people who react to "normal" dogs are fine around Standard Goldendoodles. However, if in doubt you should ask to be invited to our next Puppy Meet & Greet day and grab a few cuddles with our dogs to test it out yourself first or look out for one at your local park or beach, or at a dog show. You could also ask your local goldendoodle Facebook community if there’s someone who lives nearby who you could buy a coffee for and a puppicino for their goldendoodle.

They are intelligent, easily trained, and are full of both character and personality – truly bred to be the best companion or service animal anyone could ask for!

Though great watchdogs and protectors, they do not overact, like so many small breeds tend to do. Standard Goldendoodles are very confident and protect only when necessary. They are a slightly vocal breed, but only when they need to be (usually to grab YOUR attention). They will let you know what they need, then go back to regular scheduled programming. Whatever comes up that looks strange, that they haven't been conditioned to see as part of "normal" when they are puppies, they will bark to sound the alarm – and most importantly, warn you! Typically, they then quickly quiet down. However, any dog of any breed that hasn't been properly socialized as a pup, and/or doesn't have enough exercise, stimulation and socialization in its life is likely to go nuts and bark too much – even at “normal” things.

Highly sociable and energetic Standard Goldendoodles tend to get along with other animals, children and people very well if properly socialised as a pup. We go to extensive measures to ensure your puppy has optimal socialization by the time they are ready to go home with you.

Personality varies from individual to individual (which is why we test them!). Many Standard Goldendoodles are playful, cheeky, mischievous and energetic, and are a delight for any owner, whether a first-time pet owner or an experienced dog parent!
