F1 Miniature Goldendoodles are a cross between a Miniature Poodle and a Golden Retriever. This results in a puppy that is 1/2 Miniature Poodle and 1/2 Golden Retriever. They are generally low to non shedding, mature at 25-35 lbs, and stand about 14 inches at the shoulder. Their size makes them the perfect addition to a family that wants a dog that can keep up with outdoor activities, but still cuddle up indoors. F1 miniature's hair coats can vary from wavy to curly. While we represent our dogs as low to non shedding, we don't go as far as to guarantee a non shedding dog. The nature of the cross doesn't allow perfect predictions, but the wavier or curlier the pup the less likely shedding is. So if shedding or allergies is your main concern we recommend choosing a pup whose hair coat coincides with your needs. This is a wonderful breed with the temperament of a Golden Retriever and the intelligence of a Poodle!
