Labradoodles - although they are gregarious - are somewhat less so than Goldendoodles. Puppies should not be vigorously exercised, and play time should be broken into smaller increments throughout the day. 15 - 30 minutes of vigorous activity will tire them out. As adults, a good walk is not less than 30 minutes long, and they can easily go for 1 hour. Labradoodles and Goldendoodles alike need sufficient exercise. They both possess a lot of intellect thanks to their poodle ancestors, and they can be pretty spunky at times. You can read about the Generations from the Mini Goldendoodle tab on our drop down list above, but generally speaking they are predominantly poodle. Labradoodles and Goldendoodles are very, very, similar dogs. What's the difference between a Goldendoodle, Labradoodle, Poodle, and Double Doodle? We knew we would have to tweak our program, but we felt that this little boy would be a contribution to the gene pool that could not be passed up. This isn't common among Labradoodles or Goldendoodles, as they both come from poodles - the source of the most common disorders. We tested him for over 211 genetic disorders - he carried for none of them. He is COMPLETELY clear from every genetic disease/disorder on the premium DNA panels we use. Clifford (pictured right) is a Mini Labradoodle. In our search for a stud, we stumbled across Clifford. Unfortunately, nearly all of them seem to carry for the same issues - making breeding for health and genetic diversity a challenge.

Carriers of these disorders can still be bred, but they must be bred to dogs who are not carriers to ensure healthy puppies. For whatever reason, the gene pool we currently have to choose from is very heavily polluted with common genetic disorders. But we found that trying to pair her with healthy studs was pretty difficult. Our beloved Lola is a Goldendoodle - and we love her. And secondly the Goldendoodle gene pool has some challenges. For one, Golden Retrievers are prone to cancer, Labradors are not.

We got into breeding double doodles for health reasons. They are a cross between the top two retrieving doodles: Goldendoodles & Labradoodles.ĭouble Doodles are the newest creation in the designer dog world. Double Doodles, or more formally The North American Retriever are an American hybrid.
