it would be a mix
-----------------------------------------
Those would be called a back-cross, where you're crossing a hybrid back to one of it's parent breeds. More specifically, that would be a second generation back-cross golden doodle (assuming the parent doodle was a first-gen cross). There's an abbreviation as well but I don't remember it...'F1b', maybe ?
What is the lifespan of a standard poodle?

Is there such thing as a miniature toy poodle?
No, the Toy Pomeranian is basically a term used by some puppy mills, breeders and owners when they are referring to an undersized Pomeranian.
Since the Toy Pomeranian does not meet the height requirements of the Pomeranian as stated in the breed standards of reputable kennel clubs, the puppy mills and breeders used this name so that purchasers will consider them as another breed instead of an undersized Pomeranian that fails to meet breed standards. The name "Toy Pomeranian" also creates the impression that this breed is cute, and small in a trendy way.
The Toy Pomeranian is also not recognized as a breed by reputable kennel clubs such as the American Kennel Club (AKC) and the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI).
Most people who purchased a Toy Pomeranian are unaware that it is more prone to health problems than a Pomeranian. Their smaller skeletal structure makes them more fragile, hence they are more likely to suffer from accidents. Their life span is also generally shorter than that of a Pomeranian.
Poodles love to run and play, especially males. They like to take a nap in the afternoon around 2 to 4 in a cozy soft bed. They love to be held and talked to. We can't leave out eatting, they love to do that. Poodles also, love to play in the water if it's warm enough in the 70's outside.
How does a poodle adapt to special conditions?

Are poodles good for allergy sufferers?
Poodles are wonderful for allergies! Because they shed low in the summer. There is no such thing as a dog that does NOT shed. All dogs shed but like i said before, the poodle sheds low. Another word for this low shedding is hypoallergenic.
Poodles are the most recommended dog for people with severe allergies to dogs.
How often do toy poodles potty?
Toy poodles, like every other breed of dog, need to eat anywhere from one to three times daily. The problem often is that dogs, like humans, will eat out of stress or boredom. So, it is important to keep an eye on the animal's general health. If they begin to plump up, feed them less. If they lack energy, and begin to thin down, perhaps you should feed them more.
How high-pitched does a miniature poodle's bark sound?
How much a dog barks has nothing to do with the breed of the dog.
Dogs bark either because they are bored, because they feel neglected, because they are warning others, because they have anxiety, they are communicating with you, or because they are communicating with friends on the other side of town.
Therefore it is impossible to determine how much a dog will bark, because they are all different and they all have different environments.
It all depends on how they are raised. If they are raised with other dogs and children from a young age and aren't treated poorly, they tend to be gentle. But in a house with him/her as the only dog, no children, and 1 or 2 adults, they tend to be aggressive torwards other people or dogs.
How long is a miniature poodle expected to live?
12 to 14 years is the expected life span of a miniature poodle.
I know that there are exceptions to every rule, but I have a miniature poodle (22 pounds) that is 17 years old and still getting on quite well. He has a little arthritis in his hips, can't see too well due to cataracts and his hearing has diminished, but the little guy still loves to ride on the golf cart, bark at the ducks and has a great appetite. Also still very affectionate. His favorite meal? A Sonic Junior Deluxe Burger, which he has 3 times a week. Hey, at his age, what the heck. I highly recommend a poodle for most considering a dog. There is a stigma out there that poodles are little yappers that old ladies carry around. NOT SO. I have had two of them, and they are what you make them. Mine are quite macho little guys that catch Frisbees, love to run, great watchdogs, great travelers, extremely smart and easy to train. If they have a fault, it might be their initial attitude toward small children. Mine have been slow to accept them and a little nervous around them. Given time to get to know them, they love them and even get protective of them.
How much are toy poodles worth?
You need to read your local paper and compare prices in the Pet Ads. Also try your local Animal Shelter or Humane Society. They often get lots of pure breeds. Just check them on a weekly basis or let then know what you are looking for. If you have to have one that is AKC registered, check with your local Veterinarian for a good and ethical breeder. There are too many backyard breeders out there. A person should only be breeding to BETTER the breed and do health checks on the breeding stock before breeding them. Read up on Toy Poodles and educate yourself as what to look for in a good quality animal. Do the parents have any health problems, that are typical in that breed such as loose cruciates, bites that are incorrect, eye problems, etc. That is why it is so important to find a Good breeder who cares about the breed. Or give one a good home that is homeless if you don't care about showing, etc.

When do poodles stop going into heat?
The only way to stop your dog going into heat is to get her spayed, her heat cycles won't stop naturally.
Your poodle probably smells because it rolls around in the grass that other dogs have peed on. Dogs are very active.
Is your poodle too hot in the summer without cutting his hair short?
Dogs are much like humans and you MUST keep a dog cool when the weather is suddenly hot. Sounds like you're moving to a warmer climate. Keep the dog indoors more often than not and in early evening go outside with your pet when it cools off. Little by little let the dog outside with you for short periods of time until it get's use to the heat. Of course I need not tell you to NOT leave the dog in your car unattended or, leave the dog outside (even if there is shade) while you are out. Keep the dog in the cool of your home (hope you have A/C.) I have friends that moved from British Columbia, Canada to Savannah and they did the above. Savannah was hot and muggy and it was hard on their dog at first, but she's doing well now.
What type of dog food dose poodles eat?
Poodles are special dogs! But they don't require special food.
If you are looking for dog foods that will make your poodles' coat
shine and their skin to glow, then check out the 'good dog foods'
below!
Good food and bad food.
A few Bad dog foods:
Iams
Science Diet
Euckenuba
Purina
Beneful
Proplan
Sportsmix and Meowmix (cat food)
Anything that has:
corn (filler, no nutritional value, corn gluten meal etc)
by-products (cheap, chicken-by products, meat bone meal-by products...)
gluten (gluten meal)
any meat that is not specific (meat, meat by products, meat bone meal...)
wheat
any grains that are NOT "whole" grains
brewer's rice (used as a cheap filler, no nutritonal value, by-product of the alcohol industry)
Some Good dog foods:
Evo
California Natural (and other Nutura pet foods)
Innova
Healthwise
Verus
Holistic Select
Merrick
Before Grain
Whole Earth's Farms
Nature's Logic (no synthetic vitamins/minerals)
Nutro Ultra
Wysong
All good dog foods have a type of "meal"
'meal' - ground up, cooked before weighed
Meat loses 70% of its weight through water in the cooking process.
Ex. Since Chicken 'meal' is cooked before being weighed,
10lbs of chicken meal = 10lbs of chicken meat in the dog food
whereas
10lbs of chicken is only 3lbs of chicken in dog food because regular chicken
is weighed BEFORE it loses 70% of its weight through water.
(through it being cooked)
Dogs are carnivours and the more meat the better.
