Question for shedding doodles

[Jennifer]

I was curious if doodles that shed also matt? Our new puppy sheds a little and I'm hoping that means he wont matt as easily as some doodles do. He currently seems to have more of a retriever coat than a poodle coat. I know all of that can change once his adult coat comes in but I expect he will always shed to some degree.

My question is for those of you with doodles that shed, do you deal with matt's as well?

[Robyn, Greg and Snickers]

Snicks sheds very little more like little balls of fur than strands. He definitely mats but not as much as when he had his puppy coat

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

It isn't even the once or twice a week part that is the real joke.  As a 4 year old we brush Ned once or twice a week now.  What about the part about spending  40 to to 60 minutes doing it!!!!!!!

My shedding doodle will occasionally get a matt but it is almost always easily brushed out.

[F, Calla & Luca]

Yes, and cut mats frequently : )

[Bonnie and Kona]

Owen sheds a little bit. He only mats in his arm pits. I've yet to find a way to shave him there. I know that's the answer, but he seems to be ticklish or just clever enough to keep me from being successful trimming that area. Kona doesn't shed but he mats. 

[Barbara B., Sasha & Oliver]

Oliver sheds and he hardly matts,  and is very easy to brush and comb out.  Sasha my Goldendoodle is VERY poodley does not she and matts, it takes a long time to groom her.
