The presence of non-curly hair in Golden Retrievers crossed with Poodles results in a particular coat type. This characteristic deviates from the more commonly recognized curly or wavy fur associated with the hybrid breed. An example is an individual exhibiting a smoother, less textured coat after this specific crossbreeding.
This variation in coat texture significantly influences grooming requirements, reducing the likelihood of matting and the need for frequent professional grooming. Historically, breeders have selectively bred for particular coat types, aiming to minimize shedding and cater to individuals with allergies. The resulting variation presents a different aesthetic appeal compared to the typical curly-coated counterparts.
