The Goldendoodles



Goldendoodles are a cross between the AKC’s 4th and 5th most popular dogs, Golden Retrievers and Poodles. Bred to be larger than a Cockapoo, the Goldendoodle is a friendly, intelligent dog.

Height :
20-24 inches (51-62 cm)

Weight :
45-75 pounds (21-34 kg)

Like the Labradoodle, the Goldendoodle is low shedding and generally hypo-allergenic. As of this time, Goldendoodles are not recognized as a breed and most of them are first generation.

The Cockapoo Dog



First bred in the 1960s, Cockapoos have their own organization, The Cockapoo Breed Club of America. A Cockapoo is a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle. Cockapoos are active and good with kids.

Height :
Teacup Toy to Maxi

Weight :
6-19 pounds (3-9 kg)

Temperament :
Though not as hyperactive as a Cocker Spaniel, a Cockapoo loves the water and can be a barker. As a non-shedding and hypo-allergenic dog, a Cockapoo can be a great addition to any family.
