Goldendoodle: The Friendly and Outgoing Family Favorite
The Goldendoodle is one of the most popular Doodle breeds, known for its affectionate, social, and intelligent nature. A cross between a Golden Retriever and Poodle, this breed is well-loved for its easygoing personality, high trainability, and playful spirit.
Size & Weight
Goldendoodles come in different sizes depending on their Poodle parent:
• Standard Goldendoodles weigh 50 to 80 pounds and stand 22 to 26 inches tall.
• Mini Goldendoodles weigh 25 to 45 pounds and measure 16 to 20 inches tall.
Temperament
Goldendoodles are friendly, affectionate, and love being around people. They thrive on social interaction and enjoy making new friends—whether it’s with family members, strangers, or other pets. Their eager-to-please attitude makes them highly trainable, and they often excel in obedience, therapy work, and agility.
They are great with kids, other dogs, and even cats, making them a perfect family pet. However, their social nature means they do not do well when left alone for long periods.
Activity Level
Goldendoodles have a moderate to high energy level. They enjoy daily exercise, outdoor play, and interactive games. Activities like fetch, swimming, and hiking are great for them. While they love being active, they also enjoy cuddling with their families at the end of the day.
If you’re looking for a loving, intelligent, and social dog, the Goldendoodle is a fantastic companion.
