Golden Doodle Coat Question
Hi guys, I have a question...Ollie is now 17 weeks old and I still cannot tell what his coat will be...It is different all over, he is an F1 gd. He certainly is not curley, he is sort of wavy, and the hair on the top of his head looks like it will be shaggy...I wish I could get a picture on here, but there is something wrong with my picture transfer thingy, lol...Need my son to come over here and see what is happening...Adina tried to help, but that didn't work either...Anyway, I keep looking at everyones dogs, and I am trying to envision what Ollie will look like when his baby fur is all gone...He is going to be a big boy that is for sure, he is tall and long legged too...Big paws....I was wondering if any of you had some pictures of your golden doodles at 4-5 mos old that you could send me, or place here for me to see...I was hoping that he would be full shaggy or full wavy, but I don't think so...I think he might have more of a retriever coat..Flat, but with some waves?..But he is such a love, lol, and what a character!!!!...Thanks guys...Cheryl

Hi Cheryl,
Samantha is an F1 LD. If you want, go to my page, view all pictures, on page 11 I have pictures labled coat1, coat2, 3 and 4. Check to see if Ollie looks anything like Samantha did way back then.
Let me know
Adrianne
PS - if you post your pictures on Flickr.com, much easier to put into DK. I have been having problems with the regular uploader but the Flickr upload gives me no problems.

Adrienne, I think he is sort of like Samantha 1,2,3, like a composite of those, lol...I did not know that you were from Jersey, lol, so am I...I know Short Hills very well....I grew up in Newark, graduated Weequahic High School, many years ago...when Newark and Weequahic were tops...I graduated in 1964, lol, so I am old...but I know the area very well...When we moved out of Newark, we moved to Union, and I did all my shopping at the Short Hills Mall...And Milburn Center...I was married at the Temple on Millburn Ave. We lived in Montville, and I worked in South Orange, and then Livingston...We almost bought a house in Short Hills...Beautiful area. When we come up from Florida to visit family & friends, we always stay at the Short Hills Hilton...Small world...Anyway, like I said he is a cross...I think his ears are curlier then Sams....Cheryl

6 degrees of separation!! When you come up you must let me know!! I will get the usual suspects together for a romp in your honor!
We work in SO. Remember where Town Hall Deli was (they bought out the Midas shop on Valley and now that's there they are located)? Our office is 2 doors down and upstairs. I am very lucky to be able to take the kids to work (when I go in - recently semi retired). In the South Mountain Reservation, right where Grunings used to be (now a condo building) they made a dog park. We go there all the time weather permitting.
We spend January - March in Miami Beach. You aren't far are you? Look up DK member Lee & Barbara Seidman, they live in Lighthouse Point. And Ellen aka Beau Beau's Mom - she lives in North Miami Beach. We met them this past winter when we were down there and they become life long friends so quickly. They are part of a So Florida group (not DK) that has romps every month in Plantation. You will meet wonderful people.
See you in January!

My husband is coming up on thurs. It is his Mom's 99th birthday, and she is in great shape, lol, she lives on her own, and is sharp as a tack...I can't come up because I have no one to watch the dogs, my regular girl is away for the month of aug...So I have to stay home with the two of them...Renny is 11 yrs old and has never been boarded in a kennel, His breeder has always watched him, but since she is away, I can't take the chance of putting him in a kennel, he would freak out...And Mr. Oliver, well he has never been away from us, since he is too little, so I guess I am going to be here while they are all partying....But thats ok...When we come up next spring I will be sure to tell you so we can get together...But since u are going to be in Miami, for sure we can meet, it is not too far for us to meet...Are u briinging the dogs with you?...I would love to see them, and for u to meet Oliver...if you e-mail me at Irataxman@aol.com I can send u my phone number so we can make arrangements to meet....I did go to a doodle romp in Plantation to see all the doodles...I read about it on Doodlekisses, and we went...

and by the way, why are they not part of Doodlekisses?

Lee and Ellen are DK members - that's how I met them. Go to Members and search on their names
Wish Mom a HB from us! See you in January,
Adrianne
Yes, we will be bringing both pups. We drive down - stop to visit with the GRAD Group, stop in Jacksonville and then to MB. Easy trip.

Oh she is just adorable...I would be thrilled if he looked like her....she has the exact coat that I wanted....But like it has been said, u never know exactly what the coat will be...We will love him whatever his coat is, lol....He is just a funny adorable goofus of a dog....I was just curious to see what other gd looked like when they were young, and what they finally turned out to look like...Thanks, Penny

Here is a photo of Gus and Molly, F1 GDs, at 4 months (their current age). They too have more of a retriever coat, though Molly is a bit wavier than Gus. Their half-brother Timbow, see "Dan, Judi & Timbow"'s page, looked like them when he was younger. He's a bit older, so I keep an eye on Timbow to see what they'll look like in a few months.

Oliver looks like both of them, lol, maybe a little more like the one on the rt, Molly I think? Becasuse of the waves...How do I find Dan & Judy & Timbows page? Thanks for the pictures, and the reply....
-

I found their page, and my Ollie is a dead ringer for Timbow at the same age....Even the color is the same, with the white on the chest and top of the head...If he turns out looking like Timbow, I would love it...But like I said, what ever his coat is, he is loved, thats for sure...lol...Thanks agan, and please keep me informed if u can on what your two are changing to, they are just adorable, and I love their colors....Thanks again...Cheryl
