Your Standard Goldendoodle should be between 18 and 36.5 pounds at three months old. Then, at six months, it may weigh around 33.5 pounds or as much as 67 pounds. Your Standard Goldendoodle likely won’t stop growing until it is about 18 months old, though some reach full size at the 1-year mark, and others keep growing until they are two years old.

Once it reaches maturity, a Standard Goldendoodle can be anywhere from 40-100 pounds. This is a pretty big range, so it can be hard to know what to expect from a Standard Goldendoodle puppy. Fortunately, if you monitor their growth, there is a handy trick to estimating their adult weight.

If you take your puppy’s weight at four months old, then multiply by 2, and add on 5-10 more pounds after that, you should have an approximate answer for how big your dog will get. Of course, this isn’t a perfect science, but it can be a helpful rule of thumb.

It’s also worth mentioning that, like with any dog, the weight ranges mentioned for Standard Goldendoodles are just averages. It’s possible for your Standard Goldendoodle puppy to be a bit smaller than the norm, and it could also grow slightly taller than most other dogs in the breed, which could mean that it also weighs more.

Dogs can also weigh more if they overeat or have poor nutrition, just like people. Make sure you are only feeding your Standard Goldendoodle an appropriate amount for its age and size. Otherwise, it may become unhealthily overweight.

F1 refers to the generation that a Standard Goldendoodle puppy belongs to, and it tells you what breeds the parents were. This information is very valuable because Goldendoodles can result from various mixtures. Not every Standard Goldendoodle is the pup of a Golden Retriever and a Poodle; some are the product of 2 Goldendoodles, and others have one Goldendoodle parent and one Poodle parent.

So an F1 Standard Goldendoodle will be the typical mix between a Golden Retriever and a Poodle, and this Goldendoodle will have one parent of each breed. An F2 Goldendoodle, on the other hand, will be the result when two F1 Goldendoodles have puppies. When you introduce poodles back in, different combinations are also possible, like F1b, F1bb, F2b, and F3.

You must always buy a dog crate that is big enough for your dog when it is fully grown. Crates that are too small will be uncomfortable and cruel, so you want to make sure it can stand up, sit, lie down, and stretch out.

However, you mustn’t go the other direction and get a crate that is too big for your Standard Goldendoodle puppy. The crate should be big enough to allow for movement, but not larger. If you get an extra big crate, your puppy might get confused and use a corner of it as the bathroom.

For Standard Goldendoodle Puppies, which can get up to 90-100 pounds when fully grown, it’s advised to get a 42-inch crate. A 48-inch crate might be suitable if they’re especially big, but you shouldn’t need anything larger.

At Poodles2Doodles, we charge between $2000 and $3000 for Goldendoodle puppies. Certain factors, like whether it is Mini, Medium, or Standard, will impact the price. Coat variations also affect this figure too. 

A 2-year genetic health guarantee is included in the cost of your Standard Goldendoodle puppy. We provide this because we want to ensure that you have a companion that can be with your family for years. 

Furthermore, we are confident that we do everything in our power to ensure that genetic health concerns won’t affect your puppy. To that end, every parent dog undergoes various medical testing before they have their first litter. 

We also take pride in the care we provide the Standard Goldendoodle puppies while they are with us. They only receive the best food and are wormed and given three rounds of shots. 

These steps help us make sure that no puppies are sent home with hidden health problems. However, we want to be thorough, so we insist that within three days of taking your Standard Goldendoodle puppy home, you take it to the vet. We want to make sure you have a friend that will stick with you for many years to come.
