Fun facts about them include that they often participate in agility and therapy services in communities and can weigh anywhere from 45 to around 90 lbs., depending on their size. Goldendoodles have coats that range from tight curls to soft waves which means they have minimal to zero shedding, making them an ideal dog for allergy sufferers. Goldendoodles are also known for being intelligent, friendly, and loving.
Goldendoodles are considered to be hypoallergenic because they are bred to have a low-shedding coat that produces very little dander. However, as their coats are not 100% allergy free, there is always a chance that they may cause some people to experience allergies. There is no guarantee that a Goldendoodle will not cause any reactions or that everyone will have the same reaction to them.
Goldendoodles typically need at least two meals a day of high-quality, nutritious dog foods formulated specifically for their size. It is important to avoid overly-rich foods, as these can quickly lead to digestive issues. Since Goldendoodles are a mixed breed, they may have different dietary requirements than a purebred dog.

You will need to have a high quality dry food specifically designed for large breeds, a flat buckle collar and leash for walking, chew-safe toys to keep them occupied and out of trouble, plastic or stainless steel food and water bowls, an odour-resistant bed, nail clippers, a brush for regular grooming, and a crate or carrier to travel in. Additionally, make sure to stock up on cleaning supplies for their messes! Finally, don't forget to provide lots of love and attention.
