If you’re looking to adopt or buy a Goldendoodle, you’re probably wondering what size they will grow to. How Big Do Golden Doodles Get? Luckily, this is one of the most straightforward questions about a Goldendoodle since most Goldendoodles follow medium or large-size guidelines when fully grown. So let’s take a closer look at these sizes so you can feel more confident picking the right dog breed for your family!
Overview of the Golden Doodle
The Goldendoodle is half Golden Retriever and half Poodle. It is beloved among people who suffer from allergies due to its fluffy allergy-friendly coat.
Goldendoodles come in many colors. The most common is the statement teddy bear gold, similar to that of the Golden Retriever. They also come in white, black, brown, cream, or red. It is not uncommon for mixed-breed dogs with Goldendoodle lineage to have traits like grey, blue, and other rare color markings.
This kind of dog is playful, kind, intelligent, overly friendly, and craves human interaction. They also have significant physical fitness needs, so daily walks or outdoor play sessions are necessary to fulfill that. With all this in mind, Goldendoodles make the ideal companions for families with small children, first-time dog owners, or someone who needs an emotional support animal.
How Big Do Goldendoodles Get?
Goldendoodles, like many other breeds, come in different shapes and sizes. However, there are three typical size classes of Goldendoodles which are standard, medium, and miniature. But does size really matter? The answer is yes. For many people who are wanting to get this breed, it has certain personality traits or lifestyle characteristics they want, but maybe their home is too small. The size of the dog can also affect its behavior and energy levels.
Standard Goldendoodle Dogs
Also known as large Goldendoodles, this is the largest of the three groups, so potential owners will require plenty of living and playing space. The average full-grown female or male standard Goldendoodle is about 50 pounds or more, and they measure around 22 inches or taller. The standard-size Goldendoodle follows the size of its one parent breed – the Golden Retriever.
Medium Goldendoodle Dogs
This size of Goldendoodle is a popular choice as they are big enough to serve as a working dog and small enough to live in an apartment but would still require a good-sized garden. Typically full-grown medium Goldendoodles measure from the floor up to the shoulders, around 15 to 20 inches. Males and females of the same breed stay in about the same weight range, which is between 30 to 45 pounds.
Miniature Goldendoodle Dogs
These tiny Goldendoodle puppies are a perfect choice for those living in tight apartments, owning an RV, or just wanting an easily transportable friend. When fully grown, the miniature Goldendoodle averages a weight of 15 to 35 pounds and measures around 13 to 20 inches.
