Looking for a Doodle? Which One is Right for YOU?

Table of Contents

A doodle is a doodle, right? Well, not exactly.

 

A doodle is a hybrid (cross-breed or mixed-breed) from intentionally breeding two purebred canine breeds where one breed is a Standard Poodle.  

According to history, the first “doodle” was actually bred by the great-granddaughter of Charles Dickens back in 1969! Monica Dickens bred a Golden Retriever with a Standard Poodle to highlight the best of both breeds. The gentleness of the Golden Retriever with the athletic intelligence of the Poodle (the Poodle is considered the 2nd most intelligent dog breed) while also eliminating the heavy shedding issues from Golden Retrievers. 

By the 1990s, the Goldendoodle breed became a well-known and sought-after “designer breed” in Australia and the United States. They also became popular as therapy and guide dogs.

Today there are a variety of doodles to meet the growing demand for hypoallergenic dogs for those who suffer from allergies to other K9 breeds. 

Here at Arkansas Bear Creek Goldens and Doodles, we breed high-quality, healthy and well-socialized doodles including the: 

  • Aussiedoodle: An Australian Shepherd and Standard Poodle.
  • Goldendoodle: A Golden Retriever with Standard Poodle.
  • Labradoodle: A Labrador Retriever and Standard Poodle. 
  • Mini Labradoodle: A Labrador Retriever and Miniature Poodle; and
  • Mini Aussiedoodle: An Australian Shepherd and Miniature Poodle.

Before you purchase a doodle, it is important to understand the
differences and characteristics of each doodle breed
and then 
choose the one that fits your family and lifestyle best!


Aussiedoodle

While a great family pet, it is important to remember these breeds live to herd and work on ranches. So, it is important to give this breed plenty of activity, exercise and mental stimulation to avoid their potential destructive behaviors when they become bored. 

  • Colors: merle, chocolate, red, black, phantom (meaning 2 different colors with the secondary color in specific locations; extremely rare) and parti-colored.
  • Coat: Wavy to Curly.
  • Personality: Energetic, affectionate, playful, obedient and possess leader traits.
  • Characteristics: Intelligent, fast and agile, barkers and high maintenance.

Goldendoodle (or Groodle)

One of the two most popular doodle breeds.

  • Colors: Merle, chocolate, red, black, phantom (meaning 2 different colors with the secondary color in specific locations; extremely rare) and parti-colored.
  • Coat: Wavy to Curly, but sometimes straight.
  • Personality: Extremely friendly and outgoing.
  • Characteristics: Very social and affectionate.

Labradoodle

The other most popular doodle breed. 

  • Colors: Black, red, apricot, chocolate, cream, merle or parti-colored.
  • Coat: Wavy and Curly.
  • Personality: Friendly, affectionate, dependable and intuitive.
  • Characteristics: Leadership qualities, serious and protective and love having a job.

How to Identify Doodle Generations

If you are looking to purchase a purebred doodle breed, you have probably noticed the classifications of P, F1, F2 and F3. What do these categories mean and how do they affect your purchasing decision?  

First, these “F notations” indicate the generation of the puppies. 

  • It begins with the “P Generation” or the two purebred parents meaning 100% purebred.
  • It begins with the “P Generation” or the two purebred parents meaning 100% purebred.
  • From these two purebreds, their puppies are known as “F1 Generation” with 50% from each purebred parent. 
  • There’s also an “F1b Generation” which indicates an F1 doodle was bred to a Poodle, making the puppies three-fourths Poodle. These puppies are very popular because of their lack of shedding. They also tend to have a more curly coat like the poodle. 
  • Next, the “F2 Generation” indicates the parents are both F1 Generations; meaning two 50/50 hybrids or cross-breeds were bred. 
  • Similarly, the “F3 Generation” indicates both parents were F2 Generations where the parents and grandparents were both Goldendoodles.

I got a little boy doodle from here and he is a great dog! He has the best of both breeds in him. The perfect personality and has been so easy to train. He is a great addition to my family and a perfect companion for my Pomeranian. I couldn’t be happier! I am out of state and the whole process to get him was very smooth and I have no complaints. Would definitely recommend them!

Our Sammy Joe is now 10 months old and what a beautiful dog. We have had Goldens for over 20 years so we’re very familiar with the breed. He is very healthy and very smart. Mona was so helpful when we contacted her in our search for a dog. We told her what our lifestyle was and what type of puppy we were looking for. She definitely recommend the best dog for us (thanks!) hopefully I’ll get a recent picture of Sammy and add to this post. Thanks again Jim & Paulette

Mona and her family were wonderful to work with. She consistently gave updates as we waited for Oakley to be born. We enjoyed selecting our puppy and then receiving weekly pictures and updates as we awaited picking up Oakley to bring her into our family. Oakley is an incredible dog!! She is spunky, yet gentle. She LOVES people! She has been a fun puppy and very easy to train. She follows instructions well, and we couldn’t be more pleased with this addition to our family. We highly recommend Arkansas Bear Creek Goldens and Doodles for beautiful, well bred dogs who are sharp, smart and easy to train. Mona is wonderful to deal with and Oakley has been a wonderful addition to the Duddleston family.

Three years ago we bought our golden retriever From Bearcreek, she was 10 weeks old. The next day Mona called us to check on her. Throughout Riley’s life, Mona was always there to answer questions and to help us. They truly love their dogs and it shows. I recommend Arkansas Bearcreek to anyone who wants a happy puppy.

Could not be happier with my experience with Arkansas Bear Creek Doodles. They raise the puppies like their own with so much love and care. They were so easy to work with and brought Lexie with everything I could need to get her thorough the first few weeks of transition, including medicine in case she got sick and her favorite toy. She has been the BEST dog.

Our family has purchased 2 puppies from Mona's family. Both of the are wonderful dogs. They're not only adorable, but they have great temperaments and are extremely smart. Both puppies were housebroken in only a few weeks. They're both wonderful family members. I would definitely buy another puppy from them.
