Not sure what “F1,” “F1b,” Mini, or Standard means? You’re not alone. Here’s a simple breakdown of Goldendoodle sizes and generations—so you can feel confident choosing the right puppy for your family.
Goldendoodles are loved for their friendly personalities, adorable coats, and family-ready temperaments. At Golden Acres Puppies, we raise Goldendoodles with a focus on health, temperament, and early socialization, helping families in Kentucky (including the Lexington area) and across the U.S. bring home a puppy that fits their lifestyle.
In this guide, you’ll learn the difference between Mini vs. Standard Goldendoodles, and what generations like F1 and F1b typically mean—so you can choose with confidence.
The F1 Goldendoodle is a blend of 50% poodle and 50% golden retriever, resulting in a wonderful mix of traits from both breeds. Ranging from wavy hair to loose curls, F1 Goldendoodles boast a charming appearance. Known for their fantastic temperament, they make excellent family pets. F1 Goldendoodles can shed lightly to none. Our F1 Standards typically weigh 55-65 lbs when fully grown, while our F1 Minis range from 25-35 lbs. These Goldendoodles exhibit the beloved Golden Retriever look in their faces, along with the endearing personality traits that make them so beloved.
The F1b Goldendoodle is a great mix of 25% Golden Retriever and 75% Poodle, resulting in a classy and intelligent breed. Their coat is typically very wavy to curly, making them hypoallergenic and ideal for those with allergies. Known for their exceptional temperament, F1b Goldendoodles are friendly, affectionate, and excellent family companions. Whether in the standard or mini size, they bring joy and companionship to any home. Our F1b Standards are about 55-65lbs full grown. Our Mini F1bs are 25-35lbs. And our Small Mini F1b’s are 18-25lbs.
Miniature F1 and F1b Goldendoodles are the epitome of cuteness! With both F1 and F1b variations available, their fur coats exhibit the same range as the standards. The key difference lies in the size of the Poodle parent, with the Dad being a 10-12lb poodle instead of a standard poodle. These adorable pups typically weigh between 25-35lbs. Additionally, we offer Small Mini Goldendoodles, exclusively F1b, with parents consisting of a Mini F1 Goldendoodle Mom and a Miniature Poodle. These will weigh between 18-25lbs, providing all the sweetness of Minis in a slightly smaller package.
