The newest hybrid-Goldendoodle

By: Doodle Planet, Thu Mar 16th, 2006 07:12:22 PM

The newest hybrid to hit the United States and is the best kept secret for a family pet is called the Goldendoodle. What is a Goldendoodle you ask? Visit our website at http://www.goldendoodleworld.com for extensive Goldendoodle information, tons of photos and other info on how to locate a Goldendoodle. This hybrid has been in the United States since 1997 and is steadily growing in popularity. Already they have been seen magazine covers and on television day shows. However, some erroneous information has been put out there regarding the Goldendoodle. Goldendoodles, when F1 (first generation) is a very hardy and healthy dog very little genetic flaws. Yes, they can still be prone to cataracts like that of the Poodle and Golden Retriever; some skin or ear issues like that of the Golden Retriever, but the likelihood is little to none. However, it is important to know that many inexperienced Goldendoodle breeders jumped on the band wagon when the doodle dogs reached their popularity peek and many BOUGHT a Goldendoodle to back-breed with a Poodle..or they bought two and have began breeding them. Many inexperienced Goldendoodle breeders make claims regarding such offpspring that they, of course, can not back up...ie...being a non-shedding or hypo-allergenic dog just because they were back-bred, line-bred or inbred or bred back to a Poodle. This can not be any further from the truth! Any back-bred, inbred or line-bred Goldendoodle is going to be at a higher risk for genetic flaws and their offspring will NOT become a non-shedding, hypo-allergenic dog. All it will be is back-bred, linebred or inbred.

When bred correctly, most of your first hybrid crosses are much healthier because they are NOT in-bred or line-bred or back-bred to their cousins, fathers, mothers, sisters and brothers. Thus, none related dogs are at a lower risk for genetic flaws because they do not have any related genes. The Goldendoodle has worked out, so far, very well for those who suffer from allergy issues. They shed extremely little and their temperament is so loving! We definitely recommend the Goldendoodle for anyone who has a problem with too much shedding hair. Goldendoodles are extremely social dogs...very intelligent and very easy to train!

We have bred the Goldendoodle since 1999 and have done tons of research on canine genetics where creating hybrids is concerned and every year, we learn more and more and continue to pass the information on to the general public. Make sure to contact us if you are interested in owning a spectacular dog! We do ship nationwide and we also ship to Germany and Canada. There are tons of pictures on our website, not to mention that our website is still being constructed so that it becomes an educational site for anyone seeking Goldendoodle information.
