What is an Irish Doodle?
Irish Doodles are a relatively new Poodle cross breed, and they are certainly proving to be very popular. They are a hybrid of the Irish Setter and the Poodle. While designer breeds are relatively new themselves, the Irish Doodle is even newer. There isn't a well-documented history for the Irish Doodle, but it is assumed that they were created in an attempt to combine the non-shedding coat of the Poodle with the happy, friendly, nature of the Irish Setter.
Our Irish Doodles have low to non-shedding hypoallergenic coats. Some are wavy, some are curly and the colours have ranged from a light apricot to deep red.
Irish doodles thrive on human companionship, forming strong family bonds, making them excellent family dogs. They are very intelligent and easy to train.
Their friendly and affectionate nature makes them great playmates for youngsters, while their patient disposition often resonates well with older children. They have a knack for sensing the energy level of their little human companions and often adjust their behavior accordingly. Due to their friendly and compassionate nature, Irish Doodles can excel as therapy dogs, providing comfort and support to those in need.
Our F1B Irish Doodles are medium sized dogs. They are generally tall, but lean. They typically enjoy a relatively long and fulfilling lifespan and can live for approximately 12 to 15 years with proper care. Genetics, diet, exercise, and overall health maintenance influence their longevity.
Irish Doodles are generally well mannered and not excessive barkers. However, like any dog, they may bark to alert you to something unusual or if they are feeling playful.
