Sheepadoodles are one of the most popular "designer dogs" and are a hybrid breed obtained by combining an Old English Sheepdog and a Poodle. Both Old English Sheepdogs and Poodles are known for their kind and intelligent personalities. They are highly trainable, outgoing, and family-friendly.
Sheepadoodles give you the best of both breeds in a warm fuzzy package. They have charming personalities with a goofy fun-loving nature and are all-around great family pets. Sheepadoodle coats can be tight curls to loose wavy curls, and are low- to non-shedding, making them great for allergy sufferers.
Sheepadoodles are typically black and white or solid black when they are born, and within 2 years the black will generally fade to a beautiful gray. Mixing sable or merle into the genetics gives a gorgeous array of colors.
We typically breed both Mini and Standard Sheepadoodles in the F1 generation. Regardless of size, our puppies love to do whatever it is you're doing. They love to be outside hiking around our farm. They also love just hanging out watching TV. We are sure you will love our puppies as much as we do.

The F1 sheepadoodle is a first generation hybrid. They have added health benefits associated to hybrid vigour. This is a phenomenon known in animal breeding. This refers to the fact that the first cross between two unrelated purebred lines makes the litter healthier and better then either parent line.
Coat Maintenance: Expect to groom your F1 Sheepadoodle about 4-6 times per year, or every 2-3 months. Brushing required depends on how long you keep their coat. Dogs that are kept in a "puppy coat" cut require little to no brushing. Longer coats require frequent brushing to avoid matting.
Coat Description: Sheepadoodle coats grows to a natural body length of 3-5 inches. Many choose to have the fur cut back once every few months to keep the fur shorter and easier to maintain. Coats are usually wavy in the F1 Generation.
Shedding: Most are very light- to non-shedding. Allergy friendliness is usually successful in families with mild allergies.
The F1b Sheepadoodle, is a first generation dog bred back to a poodle to ensure non-shedding allergy-friendliness. For families with severe allergies. Although there is less vigour in this crossing then in the original hybrid, the first generation backcross still is close enough in the breeding tree to benefit from hybrid vigour. With each successive generation vigour is lost.
