Goldendoodle colors
A Goldendoodle inherits its colour from both parents — the Golden Retriever and the Poodle. Here are the colours you'll commonly see, which are rarer, and which come with a health note.
| Colour | Notes |
|---|---|
| Cream | Very common; pale to light golden. |
| Apricot | Common; warm orange-tan. |
| Red | Popular; deep copper — often fades a little with age. |
| Gold | Classic Golden-Retriever tone. |
| Black | Less common; needs a black Poodle parent. |
| Chocolate / Brown | Less common; from the Poodle side. |
| Parti | Two-colour (white + patches); rarer. |
| Phantom | Tan points, Dobermann-like pattern; uncommon. |
Rarer colours are often priced higher by breeders, but colour has no effect on health or temperament — don't pay a premium for a "rare" colour alone. Coat colour can also shift as a puppy matures. See how it works.
