My experiences with a male, now nearly a year old have not been enjoyable. I thought that Old English Sheepdogs were the dumbest breed on the planet until this dog. Training classes have not helped as even the trainer said either live with the dog or have it put to sleep. He chews everything, chases his tail endlessly and has a chronic barking problem. Based upon my experiences I would not recommend this dog to anyone.

I found this review not helpful because we've a golden doodle and are looking for another. It's the first time we've ever heard someone actually complaining about them. Doodles are brilliant dogs all round, so basically they're priceless!

I have a 9 mo. male golden doodle. It has been quite a ride. There were times I questioned why I got him. He was the nippest pup I have ever owned.. He would go after you if you would not let him socialize with his dog friends. He was at time HADD at training class. He was always looking for something to do even if he knew it was wrong. Having said all this, he has always been such a love bug that you could help to keeping working with him. In the past month, he has calmed down. He is focus, calm and very affectionate guy. He is not into everything and I can trust him (except in the kitchen). He is doing very well in his advance training class. What happened -- He went to doggie daycare twice a week in addition to his daily walks. He needed to socialize with other dogs and get more exercise. All Goldendoodles are not the same. They can be high energy, but most I have met including my dog are very loving and sweet.
