F1 versus f1b goldendoodle.
You might have heard this
phrase before, but what do
they mean?
The world of poodle mix dogs,
like the goldendoodle has
some pretty confusing
language.
There are so many different
breed names, different ways
to describe the coat color,
coat type.
And of course, the different
ways you can describe the
generations.
If you've been looking to
adopt a Goldendoodle, you'll
probably have noticed that
goldendoodle breeders
describe their dogs often as
F1 or f1b.
So, what's the difference?
There are significant
differences between the F1
and the F1 be Goldendoodle.
In terms of shedding.
Whether or not their
hypoallergenic whether or
not they look like a teddy bear
and even temperament and
health.
So let's get to it.
The F in F1 or f 1 b stands for
filial.
You don't need to remember
that.
Essentially, the F or
filial means the dog is a
crossbreed.
So every golden doodle is a
crossbreed.
So every goldendoodle will
have an F in front of its
generation.
F1 one is shorthand for
first-generation
Goldendoodle,
this is an initial cross
between two purebreds.
This means a golden retriever
is crossed with a poodle and it
creates a 50% poodle 50%
golden retriever F1 golden
doodle.
You'll find F1 Goldendoodles
everywhere, either on
purpose or even as a happy
accident.
These are one of the most
common types of
Goldendoodle, but it does not
mean that they are the best
type of golden doodle.
The appearance shedding and
hypoallergenic coat, a
pretty unpredictable for any
F1.
Goldendoodle.
This is because you're taking
a 50% poodle characteristics
and 50% golden retriever
characteristics and putting
them together.
The end result can give you a
puppy that has
characteristics from either
breed.
So one F1, Goldendoodle might
be poodle like it might be
non-shedding playful.
Or it could be more golden
retriever like and have all
the the energy and a shedding
coat.
You just don't know her.
So, the characteristics of an
F1 Goldendoodle, when it
comes to code type, it can be
any of them.
It can be wavy, it can be
straight or it can be curly
in terms of shedding.
It depends on the code type, so
they can shed 100% or they
cannot share that all.
That's just the
unpredictable nature.
If you adopt an F1 golden
doodle.
There is the added benefit of
hybrid vigor.
Which is a health benefit of
crossbreeding so they cannot
fairly healthy dogs.
And in terms of Personality,
well, it varies really
widely.
You're going to expect
intelligence ease of
training and friendliness.
The poodles, bring a whole
heap of smartness.
They bring non-shedding and
they actually really enjoy
exercise.
They love swimming.
Golden retrievers are loyal
fun-loving and really good
with families.
So this leads us to the f1b
goldendoodle.
I get asked all the time, yrfi a
Goldendoodle.
So popular.
Why are they one of the most
in-demand Generations?
Well, at f1b goldendoodle is a
whole new type of dog.
The F in F1, be still stands for
filial.
It is a crossbreed.
The one still means it's the
first generation that it's
the first generation of a new
breed
that gets us to the B, the b
stands for back cross.
So you're taking a
Goldendoodle and F1
Goldendoodle in your back,
Crossing it with either of the
two parent breeds.
So you're taking in golden
doodle and then letting it
have a puppy with either a
golden retriever or a poodle.
Ninety-nine percent of the
time, it's a poodle.
The back cross is almost
always a poodle.
This gives you an F1, be
goldendoodle, a whole new
type of a whole new generation
of Goldendoodle that is 75%,
poodle, genetics and 25%,
golden retriever genetics.
The f1v goldendoodle is your
classic golden doodle puppy.
It is the most in demand for
most higher-end
goldendoodle breeders.
F1b, goldendoodle traits,
you're going to expect a wavy
or maybe curly code with that
classic.
Teddy bear.
Look, they'll have
Furnishings, which is the
mustache and it gives it that
classic golden doodle
appearance.
While no, dog is fully
hypoallergenic.
It's about as close as you can
get f1b.
Goldendoodles are almost
always non-shedding.
And for those who do suffer
from dog allergies, you're
usually going to be ok, as
well.
You still get some benefits of
crossbreeding like hybrid
Vigor but a little bit less of
it because you're dealing
with something that is 75%
poodle.
So health-wise.
You're pretty much just
looking at the same
characteristics as a poodle.
So if you want to compare F1
versus f1v, goldendoodles
f1b, goldendoodles
typically shed less.
Therefore, F 1V K.
Doodles are, typically won't
allergy friendly and good in a
household where a child or a
family member may suffer from
asthma.
If one beat goldendoodles do
need, poodle level grooming
tear into shape them, like a
poodle that every six to eight
weeks beginning need to have
that coat cut.
Otherwise, it gets very
unmanageable.
F1b, goldendoodles.
It going to look more like
teddy bears, to give it look
more like lions.
They can have that classic
appearance compared with an
F1 Goldendoodle.
And if one golden doodle will
typically be cheaper.
F1 goldendoodles are still
fairly expensive, but they
often happen by chance.
This also means you may be able
to find an F1 Goldendoodle
more easily at a shelter or an
adoption center.
And yes, F1 Goldendoodle do
have more benefit of hybrid
Vigor.
So technically they could be
healthier.
But both parent breeds, the
golden retriever and the
poodle of fairly healthy
anyway.
It is way easier to find a
larger or giant F1
Goldendoodle than F1 be.
So if you're after a really
stocky strong or big, dog, and
f1's, probably your pick.
Which goldendoodle
generation.
Do you find more interesting
F1 or f1b?
I get asked about poodle mix
