Smeraglia's Doodle Forum

Hi Maddie,

Our Barney's mother is a golden retriever, father a golden doodle. He looks exactly like a golden but a bit smaller (which is a pleasant surprise as both his parents were 70 lbs or so!). We picked this look specifically as we had goldens previously. He is about 50 lbs and very wiry built. We love his look but he sheds just like a golden- but grooming is very simple. If you are interested in no or little shedding, take Sherri's advice about the curlier the coat, the less the shedding!

  It does not always work out like that, Maddie H.! My beautiful Baxter had Kelsey as a mom, a gorgeous cream colored golden retriever. And Chilli, a miniature poodle, is the dad!

  I have two doodles from Smeraglia, Darcy whose dad was a retriever and mom a poodle and Stormy whose dad was a poodle, so I'm not sure why you think the dad is always a retriever and mom a poodle.... more
