Irish Setter + Poodle Mix · Large (40-70 lbs)
Irish Doodles are stunning dogs, typically inheriting the Irish Setter gorgeous red or apricot coloring combined with Poodle low-shedding curls. Their coats range from the Setter flowing, feathered style to tight Poodle curls. Red and apricot coats often lighten significantly as the dog matures — your dark mahogany puppy may become a light apricot adult. Grooming needs are moderate: brush 3 times per week, professional grooming every 6-8 weeks. These are large, energetic dogs that need a groomer comfortable handling active, athletic breeds. The feathering on the ears, legs, and tail needs regular attention to prevent tangling. Irish Doodles are generally pleasant to groom, combining Setter friendliness with Poodle intelligence.
