Labradoodles and goldendoodles may look pretty similar, but they also have plenty that makes them different from one another. Although they may share a poodle parent, when it comes to things like coat texture, colors, and even their sizes they couldn’t be more different. We’re really excited to get to do a dog breed comparison on these two great crossbreeds, as we often get asked to describe what exactly makes either of these dogs stand out from each other. Today we are going to get to the bottom of what both dog has to offer, as well as the things you should be aware of before getting one for yourself.

A Quick Overview

Labradoodle
A Labradoodle is what you get when you cross a poodle with a Labrador retriever. At the moment of recording, the Labrador retriever is the number one most popular breed of dog worldwide according to the American Kennel Club, and it’s mostly due to their extreme friendliness that allows them to get along with strangers, children, and really anyone.

Goldendoodle
Goldendoodles have been covered pretty frequently on this channel, so bare with us as we fill in any newcomers to the channel. This crossbreed is the result of mixing the poodle and the golden retriever. Golden retrievers are the number three most popular dog breed in the world at the moment, and were even more popular before the goldendoodle burst onto the scene.

Which breed is bigger?
Put up against each other, the Labradoodle is the slightly larger option than the goldendoodle. This advantage is attributed mostly to the Labradoodle simply being a bigger dog than the golden retriever, which gives their offspring the edge here.

How do they behave?
It’s worth noting that personality can fluctuate depending on how much poodle or lab the dog inherits, but generally the Labradoodle will inherit some pretty ideal traits that dog owners will love. These are loyal animals, who will be devoted to their owners and their families for their entire lives, and they are also friendly and sweet too.

What is their life expectancy?
The life expectancy of both the goldendoodle and the Labradoodle is between 10 and 15 years. Many factors play a role in this one, such as genetics, diet, exercise, and just dumb luck, but both are evenly matched. Goldendoodles are a very popular dog breed and have had to deal with poor breeding practices that have affected their lifespans more than the Labradoodle, but both are healthy dogs when bought from a reputable breeder.

Any health concerns?
One of the most important things to look at when you are thinking of buying a specific breed of dog is to see if they carry any risk of health complications. Fortunately, as we’ve said earlier, both the Labradoodle and goldendoodle are in general some very pretty dogs, but there are still risks just like with every breed that you will have to keep an eye out for. Starting with the Labradoodle, things like ear infections are pretty common.

What does training look like?
Training both the Labradoodle and goldendoodle is pretty straightforward because they are just so easy to train. These dogs inherit plenty of brains from the poodle, and they also love to be mentally stimulated. Training these dogs will be a walk in the park, and you may even be able to teach them advanced tricks a lot easier than you would have expected.

How much will it cost me?
Money is a tricky subject, but also a necessary one when it comes to calculating out if either of these dogs is the right choice for you. These breeds aren’t cheap, but you should take a long view when it comes to the cost of an investment like a goldendoodle or Labradoodle.
