Meaning and background
The story behind Goldendoodle
Goldendoodle names a type of dog produced by crossing a Golden Retriever with a Poodle. The Goldendoodle Association of North America explains this directly and describes different breeding generations. As a name for an individual pet, Goldendoodle is an unusually literal and lengthy choice, often signalling the dog's type or an affectionate joke about it. The word is a modern crossbreed label, not a traditional given name with an ancient meaning.
