How Goldendoodles grow
Friendly golden-poodle cross with a curly coat. As a large breed, a Goldendoodle is roughly half grown at about 5 months and reaches adult size at around 12 to 16 months. Doodle size depends on the poodle parent. Mini Goldendoodles (from a miniature poodle) usually finish at 15 to 35 lb, so pick the small or medium setting for them.
Feed a Goldendoodle puppy a food labeled for large-breed puppies (or "all life stages including growth of large size dogs"). These foods control calcium and calories so bones grow at a steady pace, which lowers the risk of hip and elbow problems.
Is my Goldendoodle puppy underweight or overweight?
The scale only tells half the story. Check your puppy's body condition: you should be able to feel the ribs easily under a thin layer of fat, and see a waist when you look down from above. A puppy that tracks low on the chart but has good energy and body condition is usually just going to be a smaller adult. Talk to your vet if your puppy stops gaining for more than two weeks, loses weight, or has persistent diarrhea.
