Could be a golden doodle cross between a standard poodle and a golden retriever.

Or a Labrodoodle. Those are becoming more common.

Every time I see one of these poodle mixes, I get excited and think I'm seeing a soft-coated Wheaton terrier. But the owners invariably tell me it's some kind of poodle mix.

They're all gorgeous, of course, but the maintenance always prevents me from considering an adoption.

Below is a show-condition SCWT, and it's clearly a terrier breed, but the domestic (non-professional) ones I've seen, where the owners haven't bothered with the terrier styling, look a lot like a poodle mix. Or, maybe it's just hope. I've only ever encountered a SCWT in Europe.
