The actual history of the Goldendoodle is largely unknown. In the late 90s someone started crossing the Golden and the Poodle to create lower shedding service dog prospects. The popularity of this hybrid spread like wildfire. It could be argued that the popularity of this hybrid has been it's greatest detriment. In recent years, we are seeing an unimaginable number of Backyard Breeders and Puppy Mills mass producing this hybrid to meet the growing demands of consumers.

As a whole, the "Goldendoodle Movement" has shown the dog world that a new breed of dog is in town! The Goldendoodle is here to stay, and it is up to ethical breeders to ensure that we continue to grow and preserve this breed.
