Ziggy the Golden Doodle flaunting his bravado

9/9/23 Furfield Dog Park Golden Doodles can be black due to the inheritance of genes from their parent breeds. While the name "Golden Doodle" suggests a golden or light coat, their coloring can vary widely. The black coloration often comes from the influence of the Poodle parent, as Poodles can carry genes for black coats. When a Golden Doodle inherits these genes, it can express a black coat despite the "golden" association in their name. The color variation adds to the charm and diversity within the breed.
