Labradoodle & Goldendoodle Forum

Hello.

I've been on this site since we got our sweet golden doodle Phoebe about 9 months ago, but this is the first time I've felt like I have a question that I couldn't find answered on here (maybe I didn't look hard enough).  

I am just curious about what seems to be the average size for a standard size golden doodle. Our Phoebe is 10 months old but she is only about 40 lbs. I feel like she is really small as far as golden doodles go. At the dog park yesterday we met a mini labradoodle that was basically the same size as she is right now. 

SO, I guess my question is, is it normal for some standard golden doodles to be this small, or is she still just going to grow for a while longer??? (I know that is is probably hard to know since golden doodles are crossbreeds and all vary in size, but I thought I may get some insight into what is typical.) Thanks!!

My boys are now 3 years old and weigh 59 and 61 lbs. At 4 months, they were 25 and 26 lbs; at 10 months, they were 49 and 50 lbs. so, as you can see, they pretty well fit the "rule" of doubling their 4 month weight and adding 10 lbs. They finally capped out around 13 months old and have held their height and weight since then.

I only want to add that if someone told you they had a mini labradoodle and it was as big as your dog--they were the ones that were wrong about size--a standard could be anywhere between 45 and 65 pounds or even more--but a mini labradoodle should be in the 15-25 pound range--that labradoodle was a medium sized dog not a mini. 

I think Penny is going to be a small standard. She's 7 mos. old and only weighs 40 lbs.
She's so cute! I keep telling Jade she can stop growing any time. I haven't weighed her in awhile, but the 4 month weight was 25 lbs. Shes probably 40 lbs now at 5 mo. at least that's what I feel like she weighs when I pick her up.
