Trends are such that you notice something repeatedly until it becomes something you can no longer ignore. From articles of clothing, to home décor choices, to the pets people choose to keep. Speaking of pets, you may have heard your friend saying that they’d love to get a dog and upon asking them which kind, they reply, “Goldendoodle.”

You might have noticed that lately, people have been walking these big, or sometimes small, goofy dogs that resemble something like a Poodle and a Golden Retriever. Whenever you hear conversations about dogs, the word Goldendoodle comes up a lot it seems. You aren’t going crazy; America is in love with the Goldendoodle and here are 3 reasons why.

1 – The Goldendoodle Is Extremely Friendly

If you’ve met or seen a Goldendoodle in person, you’d know that there’s something about their extremely amiable expressions and wagging tongue that make them difficult to resist wanting to pet and befriend. The Goldendoodle has the charm of the Poodle and the friendliness of the Golden Retriever—considered the quintessential American family dog.

2 – Goldendoodles Offer a Lot of Variety

The Goldendoodle is a difficult to beat package when it comes the sheer variety the breed offers both in looks and in size. You can either get a regular sized Goldendoodle or a Mini. From there, the Goldendoodle sports many large differences in the look of their coat from dog to dog depending on how much they get from each parent’s side.

They may have a large, fluffy coat that is dense with coiling and curls, or they can have a relatively straight hair instead. Many Goldendoodles offer a happy medium between these looks and have a thick, wavy coat that makes them look like Teddy Bears.

Overall, a Goldendoodle can range anywhere from 15-50+ lbs depending on whether you have a mini, standard, or medium sized dog and the height will vary accordingly as well.

3 – Perfect for First Time Owners

Owning your first dog can be a harrowing experience for those unprepared or those who have selected a breed that is notoriously difficult for first time owners. I would not relish the experience of training a German Shepherd or Alaskan Malamute without having had sufficient experience with handling other dogs.

These breeds are wonderfully intelligent and make excellent companions, but their natures require a great deal of training to make sure they don’t cause trouble.

The Goldendoodle poses none of these challenges. Exceedingly friendly, great around children, and welcoming to guests in your home, the Goldendoodle is a pet that can make a first time dog owner into a lifetime dog owner.
