I don't know a whole lot about the "breed" but I would assume that they need quite a bit of excersize and they were breeding Goldens with poodles so they wouldn't shed so they probably don't shed alot if at all. I have heard they are good with kids but then again any dog can be good with kids if properly raised. As for colours I have seen them in a light yellow and a golden colour and i think there are some black ones too. I know Labradoodles only come in Black, yellow and chocolate but I'm not too sure about Goldendoodles. I probably wasn't alot of help, hopefully someone else has better answers. Also they probably get between 20-25 inches tall.
