i think i read somewhere that with the labradoodle you can predict coat type and they are getting a more standard look from the serious breeders. however the golden doodle has yet to achieve that status. breeders are trying to get the labradoodle recognized as a breed.
I do like the labradoodles coats better then the G. doodles because they are easier in my opinion to take care of, especially the wiry coat types. i love those ones even tho they are the shedding allergy coats. I hate the fleece coats, those mat the worst and those are the most popular. And then there is the wool coat which is the most like a poodles coat and those are the dogs with the owners who say "don't make him look like a poodle!" And i want to say, "um are you kidding me, you do know he is a POODLE mix with curly POODLE hair....." but of course i keep my mouth shut.... for the most part... hahahaha
