What Is An F1B Mini Goldendoodle? [F1 vs. F1B vs. F2]

The F1b Mini Goldendoodle is produced by breeding an F1 Goldendoodle (which is half [50%] golden retriever and half [50%] standard poodle) with a mini poodle. This makes an F1B mini Goldendoodle three fourths [75%] poodle and one fourth [25%] golden retriever.

The F1B Mini Goldendoodle often credited with a greater success rate for producing a non-shedding mini Goldendoodle. For families with moderate to severe allergies may want to consider an F1B Goldendoodle to address their allergy concerns.

Even though an F1B mini Goldendoodles will be 75 percent poodle, your F1B Goldendoodle will not necessarily look like a poodle or have the temperament of a poodle.

What Does F1, F1B, F2, etc. Mean When Describing a Goldendoodle?

The F1, F1B, F2, F3, etc. all describe the crosses between parents and grand parents that make up the geneology of the Goldendoodle.

Here’s a simple breakdown on how it all works:

• An F1 goldendoodle is the offspring of a poodle bred with a golden retriever.
• An F1B Goldendoodle is the offspring of a poodle and an F1 Goldendoodle.
• An F2 Goldendoodle is the offspring of an F1 and another F1 goldendoodle, and an F2B Goldendoodle is the offspring of an F1 and an F1B Goldendoodles.
• Some people have started mating F3 Goldendoodles between two F2 Goldendoodles.

The next time you hear someone talking about having an F1B or F2B Mini Goldendoodle you will know exactly what they are talking about.

If you forget, you can always just say, “I hear those dogs are great because they don’t shed.” Then let all of us Doodle owners go on and on about how great our dogs are – LOL.

My two daughters and my Goldendoodle all use this same brush daily. I was kind of surprised at how good it is that it is inexpensive on Amazon.
