He does not shed like a normal dog, but a grooming nightmare.
He has two coats like a Bernese mountain dog and straight hair. He is absolutely adorable and gets tons of attention as when his hair is longer he looks like a war or just stuck his tongue in an electrical outlet.
He requires daily combing of the under coat from where his harness goes on or where dogs play / grab him for play time.
Every 3 weeks he has a “blow out” but professional groomer; every 6 a hair cut.
If we do not maintain his coat he has to be shaved due to matting.
We are spending 100 or so for a blow out per month and then cuts are about 250. So 175 per month on grooming plus daily combing.
We also have a bernedoodle but this is not our experience. Ours is wavy and like a PP, we brush every now again. Wavy coat, very little shedding and no matting. We get her groomed every 8 weeks, $125 + tip.
And this is why designer mutts are a giant scam. You guys are paying pure breed prices for a random non-standardized mutt. There is a reason why pure breeds exist and that reason is standardization and predictable phenotypes. Doodle is not a breed so you might get a double coat or not. Roll the dice.

I have a doodle mix (part poodle, part lab, part golden) and his hair is curly. I don't know what his parents looked like. We spend $150 for grooming every other month.

Just not true. I brush my doodle every few weeks and she doesn’t mat. Stop speaking in absolutes.

If a mutigen mom has curly but not tight curls and dad is wavy, but both are multigen, will a curly pup be even curlier or most likely about as curly as mom? Considering a puppy. Thanks
