My Goldendoodle (intentional cross breeding between a golden retriever and a standard poodle) was four months old when I shot this image. She is a darling girl and is as smart as a whip. Besides being smart, having a lovely disposition and being, IMO, beautiful, Holly has minimal shedding. Three of her litter mates inherited more of the curly poodle type coat and will not shed at all. See more images of Holly at her Smugmug gallery: http://rpcrowe.smugmug.com/gallery/4...55061604_wrj4H
