What are Aussiedoodle Generations?

Aussiedoodles vary in coat type, hypoallergenic qualities, and shedding. These traits depend on the dog's generation, as Aussiedoodles are a crossbreed between the Australian Shepherd and the Poodle. Genetics play a significant role in shaping their features.

Common Aussiedoodle generations:

  • F1 Aussiedoodle: 50% Poodle & 50% Australian Shepherd
  • F1B Aussiedoodle: 75% Poodle & 25% Australian Shepherd
  • F1BB Aussiedoodle: 87.5% Poodle & 12.5% Australian Shepherd
  • F2 Aussiedoodle: 50% Poodle & 50% Australian Shepherd
  • F2B Aussiedoodle: 62.5% Poodle & 37.5% Australian Shepherd
  • F2BB Aussiedoodle: 81.25% Poodle & 18.75% Australian Shepherd
  • F3 Aussiedoodle or Multi-generation Aussiedoodle: Several generations of Aussiedoodle breeding usually backcrossed with the Poodle.
What is heterochromia in Aussiedoodles?
Heterochromia means your Aussiedoodle has two different-colored eyes, or multiple colors within one eye. It’s typically caused by natural differences in pigment (melanin) in the iris. Learn more from this article.
How do I pay for my puppy?
A $300 non-refundable reservation fee is required to secure your spot. The remaining balance can be paid in cash at pickup, PayPal, Venmo, or via credit card payment, with the final payment due at pickup. More details on the process can be found, here.
Do you ship puppies?
Yes, we can arrange for delivery within the U.S.
Do you microchip the puppies, and where do I register the microchip?

Yes, your puppy will go home microchipped.

Microchip registration is required so a shelter or vet can contact you if your puppy is ever lost. A microchip is NOT GPS and does not track location, it is an ID number that must be registered to your contact information.

Our recommended FREE registry:

  • 24Petwatch (free or "24Petwatch Basic pet protection services")
  • Tip: Add an alternate/emergency contact and keep your phone/email/address updated anytime they change.

Helpful verification step:

  • After registering (may take 24h), use the AAHA Universal Pet Microchip Lookup Tool to confirm which registry currently lists your microchip number. AAHA shows results in chronological order with the most recent registry listed first.
