Australian Goldendoodle

We are so excited to add the Australian Goldendoodle to our breeding program!  The SMD “Australian Goldendoodle” is a combination between a Multi-Generational Australian Labradoodle and a Multi-generational Goldendoodle (Golden Retriever x Poodle) to produce the ultimate doodle.  As designer dogs, they were intentionally bred to combine the desirable characteristics of two dog breeds. 

 Australian Goldendoodles have great personalities. What else could be expected when you’ve got friendly Golden Retrievers, gentle Labradors, and intelligent Poodles in the mix.  The Australian Goldendoodle is an affectionate, loving dog that loves to spend time with its owner. They are great family pets as they get along with other animals and children.  Australian Goldendoodles are known for their outstanding intelligence, train-ability & loving nature.

The Australian Labradoodle is different from all other labradoodles. 

In the early days, the Australian Labradoodle was simply a cross between a Labrador Retriever and a Standard Poodle. Dogs from this cross typically were bred to each other over future generations, whereby the Australian dogs are also known as "Multi-generational" Labradoodles.

Then, in the late 1980's, Tegan Park and Rutland Manor, the two founders of the Australian Labradoodle as we know it today, began carefully infusing several other breeds into early generations of their Lab/Poodle crosses, to improve temperament, coat, conformation, and size. The infused breeds include Irish Water Spaniel as well as the American and English Cocker Spaniel. The resulting labradoodles subsequently have been bred to each other, continuing the multi-generational tradition.

Today, Australian Labradoodle are wonderful, intelligent dogs with lush coats that are more reliably low to non-shedding and allergy friendly than other types of Labradoodles such as first generation Lab/Poodle crosses, or first generation crosses bred back to Poodles. Even when the other types of Labradoodles are bred on for generations, the result is not an Australian Labradoodle, as the attributes of the infused breeds were not included in their ancestry.
