Imagine my surprise when I read a few weeks back that ten year old Malia Obama's first choice for a White House Dog is a Goldendoodle--the same sort of dog that my brother, Tim, just got this past summer. Now that the Obama's are on their way to the White House, it occurred to me that a lot of people might be interested in seeing what a Goldendoodle looks like in action.
The dog in the video is named, Amos, and BOY is he FAST! The video really doesn't do him justice. He's very bright and friendly and took very well to his training.
And in case you were wondering, Goldendoodles meet all of President Obama's Dog criteria. They are hypoallergenic, rambunctious, and are actually mutts--as the President Elect has pointed out he is as well. This cross between Golden Retrievers and Full Sized Poodles is not recognized as a true breed by the AKC.
