Types of Doodles
A first-generation doodle, or F1 refers to a purebred Standard Poodle crossed with another purebred dog.
An F1B is a first-generation doodle crossed with a Standard Poodle. The “B” references “breeding back” to the Poodle in order to reinforce the Poodle genes associated with non-shedding coats.
F2, or second-generation doodles are the result of two F1 doodles of the same breed mix bred together.
F2B doodles are F2 doodles back bred to a Poodle.
A “multi-gen” is a multiple generation doodle, generally considered F3 or beyond.
Chesadoodle
Chesadoodles are a cross of the Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the Standard Poodle. These lesser-known Doodles make the most devoted family dogs, as well as athletic and inteligente hunting companions. Chesadoodles are friendly, loving and out-going, yet protective of family and property. They are incredibly focused and determined versitle-hunters that excel in the water.
Double Doodle
Double Doodles are a cross of the Goldendoodle and Labradoodle and are sometimes referred to as the North American Retriever. Our Double Doodles are from purpose-bred hunting lines that make incredible service and family companions as well. We have developed multiple generations of Double Doodles from diverse, healthy and beautifully tempered dogs. Most of our litters are Double Doodles.
American Retriever
The American Retriever is a cross of the Chesadoodle and Double Doodle. They are a new breed in development. With four parent breeds, the American Retriever has increased genetic diversity, which with health certified and DNA analyzed breeding lineages, leads to healthier, more intelligent, and better-mannered dogs. American Retrievers exemplify the beauty, brawn, and bravery of the Chesapeake Bay Retriever; the jovial, good-nature, and determination of the Golden Retriever; the loyalty, dependability, and versatility of the Labrador Retriever; and the intelligence, elegance, and non-shedding coat of the Standard Poodle.
