“Hypo-allergenic” means totally non-reactive for allergy sufferers. No dog is 100% “hypo-allergenic.” Some dogs, however, tend to be more “allergy friendly” than others. Dogs who have coats that are more like human hair are more easily tolerated by those who suffer from asthma and various allergies. Doodles are among these dogs.

Goldendoodles are friendly, loyal, passive and affectionate. They make excellent family pets. However, all puppies will be puppies and often nip, bite (as they are getting their permanent teeth) and jump up. It is imperative to train your puppy from day one not to exhibit these negative behaviors ensuring the safety of each child and your pup. All family members need to be on the same page as far as training goes. If this will be your first dog and your children can learn to train the puppy with the same tactics you use, then this should work well. If your children are too young to overtly demonstrate your training tactics, then it may behoove you to wait until they are a little older.

An F1 (1st Generation) Goldendoodle is a Golden Retriever bred to a Poodle resulting in a 50-50 hybrid. Please see our About Goldendoodles link.

An F1 (1st Generation) Tiboodle is a Tibetan Terrier bred to a Poodle resulting in a 50-50 hybrid. Please see our About Tiboodles link.

Goldendoodles of any generation tend to have a low-shedding to non-shedding coat. Tiboodles of any generation will be non-shedding. Their coasts are much like human hair and will continue to grow if left unchecked. Goldendoodles, as well as Tiboodles will need to be groomed periodically. It is important to note that there isn’t necessarily a correlation between whether a dog sheds and whether he or she will be allergy friendly. Much of it is determined by the makeup of the individual.

No, Doodles are at their best when they accompany their owners most everywhere. They want to be part of the family and love to be on the go. They require a moderate amount of daily exercise and mental stimulation. They are highly intelligent and need some type of challenge so negative behavior like chewing or barking will not be exhibited.

Tiboodles can have a high-pitched bark which will alarm you if someone is at your door or arrives unexpectedly. Generally speaking, however, if you are looking for a guard dog or someone to protect you, neither a Goldendoodle or Tiboodle will intimidate anyone.

Most behaviors that people associate with one gender or the other are influenced by hormones. These behaviors can include urinating on car tires, fence posts, or even your new suitcase just unloaded from the car. Over the years we have heard our clients claim that a male is solely the way to go. Others are adamant that a female is the stand alone choice for them. After years of hearing the controversy we have finally determined that both males and females make remarkable family pets and that you reap what you sow with your new four-legged family member, regardless of gender.
