Goldendoodles are among the most popular doodle and have recently gained a lot of traction for their “hypoallergenic” and “non-shedding” coat.
Lots of breeders, or should I say backyard breeders that just want to make a quick buck have used these terms to market their doodles and give them an amazing image, the dog of your dreams.
I have researched a few breeders that sell Goldendoodles and have made it easy for you to find what you are looking for.
I spent hours and hours clicking through every page on their websites to fill out these tables as best I could so you don’t have to.
Here are the breeders on this list.
- Loveabledoodles (All sizes of Goldendoodles)
- GoldenacresPuppies (Mini, F1 and F1B Goldendoodles)
- Goldendoodleranch (Mini and Medium Goldendoodles)
- Southland Puppies (Mini, F1 and F1B Goldendoodles)
- Snickers Doodles (F1 and F1B Goldendoodles)
- SouthernDoodlin (All sizes of Goldendoodles)
- ThePawPadDoodles (Toy, mini, medium and standard Goldendoodles)
I hope this will give you a better overview of the breeders out there. Of course, there are many many more that are not included here.

Recommendations
After having read through all these websites, I have a clear recommendation on my favorite doodle breeder from this list but of course, it can totally depend on your needs.
Snickers Doodles is my favorite breeder from this list because they offer support after you bought a puppy from them.
You can actually rarely find a breeder that offers this from the many websites that I scoured through.
The only other breeder that until now I found that offers support for their customers is Awesomedoodle, a truly awesome Aussiedoodle breeder.
Anyway, if you’re looking for a Goldendoodle that is the breeder I would check out.
