Goldendoodle History
The Goldendoodle breed originated in Australia and North America during the 1990s. Goldendoodles were bred in hopes of creating a guide dog that was suitable for people with allergies by combining the gentleness and trainability of a Golden Retriever with the low-shedding, hypoallergenic coat of the Standard Poodle. The Goldendoodle was a smashing success, and it wasn’t long before dog owners of all types wanted these obedient, intelligent, and loving companions as part of their family. Once available only from specialized breeders, Goldendoodles are now available in nearly every state and continue to grow in popularity.

Goldendoodles are “inside dogs” and want to be inside of the house with the rest of the family whenever possible.
