What is the difference between an F1 and F1B Goldendoodle?
The first generation (F1) Goldendoodle was the first to be bred and introduced. It is a product of a Standard Poodle crossed with a Golden Retriever. F1 Goldendoodles are most compatible with families that have mild allergies. The second generation or “backcrossed” (F1B) Goldendoodle is a product of a F1 Goldendoodle crossed with a Standard Poodle. F1B’s tend to have a higher success rate for non-shedding and are recommended to families with moderate to severe allergies.
