The Irishdoodle

4E Kennels is proud to offer irishdoodles. The first option we offer is a F1 Irishdoodle and the second is an F1b Irish Goldendoodle. In a great effort to keep our red doodles from fading and cancer less of a threat the Irish Setter was a logical choice. Where Retrievers can have golden and cream in their pedigree, Setters are red through and through! Many have been trained to hunt, a few are therapy dogs and several have become service dogs. Irish Setters, in general, have a higher prey drive than a golden, since the Irish Lines have been kept cleaner, maintaining their breed standard far better than our American golden retrievers. Irish Setters are not as intelligent as the golden retriever, but the difference is slight and far smarter than most dog breeds. They can be more "alert" and ampy and tend to attach very deeply to their family or owner. 

 They are rare, but people have fallen head over heals for them!

Why get an Irishdoodle or Irish Goldendoodle?

If you love the deep mahogany coats

Want a dog that loves to use his/her nose -great hunting dogs!

Irish Setters shed less than a golden so an Irishdoodle coat is fantastic! 

Rare! I am only one of a few prestigious breeders working with these bloodlines.

Great companions for families or active people. These dogs make great running partners!

They are not for the faint of heart, they have a good amount of energy and can go "deaf" when they see a bird, or squirrel  or lizard! Lol!
