While the Goldendoodle and Labradoodle are pretty similar, there are some key differences. Goldendoodles can have longer and wavier coats because of their Golden Retriever heritage. They can also come in many more different coat colors. Labradoodles usually only come in cream or black. Both are extremely friendly and like meeting new people more. This also comes from the Golden Retriever and Lab genes since those are very social and usually happy pups.
