Goldendoodle Characteristics
The Goldendoodle has proven to be a highly intelligent,
easy to train dog with "gentle" being the most
commonly used single word to describe them.
Goldendoodles have a beautiful long coat that is soft in
texture and can be straight, wavy, or have a loose curl.
The shedding factor cannot be determined by this.
There is no guarantee as to the amount of or lack of
shedding a particular coat type renders. Through
surveys, it has been determined that even the low
shedding Goldendoodles have proven to be
hypo-allergenic for most allergy sufferers.

GANA (Goldendoodle Association of
North America) Grading Scheme
F1 = Golden Retriever x Poodle
F1B = F1 Goldendoodle x Poodle
F2 = F1 Goldendoodle x F1 Goldendoodle
F2B = F1 Goldendoodle x F1B Goldendoodle
F3 = F1B Goldendoodle x F1B Goldendoodle OR
F3 = F1B Goldendoodle x F2B Goldendoodle OR
F3 = F2 Goldendoodle x F2 Goldendoodle OR
F3 = F2B Goldendoodle x F2B Goldendoodle
Multigen = any pairing of F3 x F3 or above
A new generation is accomplished by increasing by
one from the lowest generation in a breeding pair.
An F1 crossed with any generation will only
produce an F2 (ie: F1xF4 still equals an F2). Any B
generation counts as one up for grading purposes
(ie: F1B counts as an F2).
