F1 Sheepadoodle

First generation: one purebred Poodle parent and one purebred Old English Sheepdog parent. Every puppy is 50% of each breed.

Size

Depends on the Poodle parent used; often medium to large.

Coat and grooming

Varies the most of any generation. Coats range from loose waves to tight curls, and shedding is not reliably low. See the full grooming guide.

Energy and exercise

Moderate to high, depending on lines. Plan on about 60 minutes a day.

Best for

Owners who value the genetic diversity of a first cross and are not counting on a non-shedding coat.

Things to watch

Coat and shedding unpredictability. Nobody can promise a hypoallergenic puppy. Review Sheepadoodle health and pros and cons before deciding.
