Size and Appearance

• Size: Golden Doodles come in a range of sizes depending on the size of the Poodle parent. Typically, they range from 50 to 90 pounds for standard Golden Doodles, though mini versions of the breed typically weigh between 15 and 35 pounds.
• Coat: Their coat is often curly or wavy and typically hypoallergenic, which helps reduce shedding. Regular grooming is needed to prevent matting and tangling.
• Color: Golden Doodles are usually golden in color, but they can also come in shades of cream, apricot, or red. Some may even have multi-colored coats or patterns.

Temperament and Personality

Golden Doodles inherit the best qualities from both the Golden Retriever and the Poodle. Here are some key traits:

• Affectionate: Golden Doodles are incredibly loving and thrive on human interaction. They form strong bonds with their family and love to be involved in family activities.
• Friendly and Social: These dogs are known for their friendly and outgoing nature. They are social dogs and get along well with children, other pets, and strangers.
• Intelligent and Trainable: Thanks to their Poodle parentage, Golden Doodles are highly intelligent and eager to please. They are easy to train and excel in obedience classes.
• Playful: Golden Doodles are energetic and love to play. They enjoy outdoor activities like fetch, swimming, and hiking, making them great companions for active families.
• Gentle: They are gentle with children and often make excellent family pets because of their calm and tolerant nature.

Exercise Needs

Golden Doodles are active dogs that require regular exercise to keep them happy and healthy. They are known to be energetic and playful, so they enjoy activities such as:

• Daily walks or jogs.
• Playtime in the yard or at the park.
• Swimming (which many Golden Doodles enjoy).
• Interactive games like fetch and tug-of-war.



As with any active breed, it's important to give them sufficient exercise to burn off their energy. Mental stimulation is equally important, so be sure to engage them in training exercises and interactive play.

Health and Grooming

Golden Doodles are generally healthy, but like all breeds, they can be prone to certain health conditions. Here are some common issues to watch for:

• Hip Dysplasia: A condition that affects the hips and can lead to arthritis. It’s important to choose a breeder that tests for this condition.
• Ear Infections: Due to their floppy ears, Golden Doodles can be prone to ear infections, so regular ear cleaning is essential.
• Skin Issues: Their coat requires regular grooming to prevent mats and tangles. It’s also important to keep an eye on their skin for signs of irritation or allergies.
• Health Guarantee: At Fifth Day Doodle Farms, we provide a health guarantee with every puppy, ensuring that your Golden Doodle is in excellent health when they go home with you.

Grooming Needs

Golden Doodles require regular grooming to maintain their coats and avoid matting. Here’s what you’ll need to keep up with:

• Brushing: At least 2-3 times a week to prevent mats and tangles.
• Bathing: Every 4-6 weeks, or as needed, depending on the level of dirt or odor.
• Ear Cleaning: Check and clean their ears regularly to prevent infections.
• Nail Trimming: Trim their nails regularly to prevent discomfort or injury.
• Professional Grooming: It’s recommended to take your Golden Doodle to a professional groomer every 6-8 weeks for trim and overall coat maintenance.

Ideal Family Type

Golden Doodles make fantastic pets for a wide variety of families, including:

• Families with Children: Due to their gentle and playful nature, they are great companions for kids.
• Active Families: If you’re an active family that enjoys outdoor activities like hiking or swimming, a Golden Doodle will fit right in.
• First-Time Dog Owners: Their friendly temperament and easy trainability make them a great choice for first-time dog owners.
