"I replied to your other discussion. This one is almost three years old. Your puppy is darling, but he does not appear to have inherited the gene for "furnishings", so I would say that he probably won't have much of a beard or shaggy…"

"Anyone know what coat this f2b pup might have?  The breeder said he is the only one who has ever shed.  This is him at 7 weeks.  Will he ever get a beard?"

" We just want to wish you a very Happy Birthday!Kemp, Ripley, Shiloh, Oliver & Truman "

"Rosei (F1) has alway had a curly coat but her adult coat came in much lighter than her puppy coat. Check out the pictures on my page and you will see how she changed from a real golden color to almost white. She's a 17 month old now, the…"

"I think Ben's coat will get thicker and wavier as he gets older. I can see the waves on his back in your picture. He is just a baby and so cute. He looks fairly big too. Here is Thomas when he was 4 mths."

"Sorry for the delay. Thomas is an F1 Goldendoodle too. He is 16 mths old and weighs 86 lbs. AND he is the best dog! (even though I posted several discussions about his puppy biting a yr or so ago)"

"i raised my son's goldendoodle until her was 5 1/2 months old and his coat looked very much like yours. Does the hair on his back feel different, more coarse or thicker waves? Here is a pic of Noonan at around 4 months and a recent pic of him…"

"Any predictions re: his adult coat? He's 4 months old. F1 Goldendoodle."

"Thanks! I'm a newbie and don't quite know how this works. Gayl"

"Very, very cute doodle! Tell me about him. Is he a golden or a lab? What generation? We're trying to figure out what our guy will look like. He's an F1 Goldendoodle. Thanks. Gayl"

"Our guy is now 16 mths old. He started to get his adult coat at about 7 mths. and we got lucky-he does not shed and does not matt easily. You will know when he is getting his adult coat, the hair is coarser, at least it was for us."

"Most dogs lose their puppy coats towards the end of their first year give or take a few months--it is very variable. If he doesn't shed he will start to mat and you have to comb or brush his puppy coat out over the course of a few months. Some…"
