F1b Sheepadoodle

An F1 Sheepadoodle bred back to a Poodle, so puppies are roughly 75% Poodle and 25% Old English Sheepdog.

Size

Often closer to the Poodle parent's size.

Coat and grooming

Tends toward curlier, lower-shedding coats than an F1, but still varies litter to litter. See the full grooming guide.

Energy and exercise

Moderate to high. Plan on about 60 minutes a day.

Best for

Households who want a curlier coat and are prepared for regular professional grooming.

Things to watch

Curlier coats mat faster. A lower-shedding coat is a tendency, not a guarantee, and allergy sufferers should spend time with the actual dog first. Review Sheepadoodle health and pros and cons before deciding.
