Doodle Puppy Coat Type

[Casey]

This is probably a silly question, but I am wondering what type of coat my new doodle puppy has. I guess it doesn't really matter what it's called, because he's cute no matter what. But, I'm curious. Would his coat be considered wavy fleece? Some of the definitions online are contradictory. I'd love to hear from other owners. If your puppy looked anything like my Stanley, what does his/her coat look like now that he/she is all grown up?

Hopefully, that little profile pic is enough to get a good look at him. I am new, and I didn't see an option to add an additional pic.

Hi there this is Dixie she has a wavy fleece coat and she is 10 months and has been clipped once as seen in pics ur doodle is lovely and I think it will be similar to dixies

He is a cutie for sure. It looks kind of wavy to me. Annabelle is a lot curlier now than when we first brought her home.

This is the day we brought her home at 10 weeks and 4lbs.

This is her now at about 18 months old. She is a mini and only weighs 15lbs full grown.

Welcome to Doodle Kisses!  Here are a few pictures of my English Cream Golden Doodle Skadi, growing up.  Your puppy is adorable and I bet you will just LOVE all the stages they go through with their personalities and their coats.  Take lots of pictures cause it goes fast!  They change when you're not looking!  HA!  Enjoy enjoy enjoy.  These are Skadi from 3 months to 5 1/2 years.

That's the coat we are hoping Stanley grows into, though we will love him no matter what :) Thanks for your response. I love seeing all the pics :)

your doodle is so adorable!! i have a mini GD he is 18 pounds might be smaller now that we cut his hair for the warmer weather. I would say he has the same coat. I really like the waves because I feel like it is easy to handle.

Does your doodle get a lot of matted hair when it is that length in the last picture?

Do you use any special shampoo or conditioner?

I would like my doodle to have long hair like that again but the I  feel guilty when he gets matted under his arms or behind his ears.

Thank you. Surprising enough, Skadi mats very very little.  I think she has only had one or two mats in her 5 1/2 years.   She is an English Cream GD and maybe that might have something to do with the way her fur grows.  I do comb her out maybe once a week if I'm lucky.  So I am very fortunate with her fur.  She was given to me by my grown kids who bought her and didn't have time or patience for a puppy.  Best gift my kids have ever given me!  You might recognize Skadi...She's this year's December photo in the GD calendar.  And one other thing I love about this doodle is her glorious tail.  I make sure she is groomed every 8 weeks.  In between I bathe her only when absolutely necessary and I don't use any special products.  I do give her pet cod liver oil for her coat.  BTW, your little one is very very cute!

He looks like he will be a wavy doodle for sure! AND a cutie pie!
