HEIGHT

Breeding a male Leonberger to a female Standard Poodle, 120 to 170 pounds (54 to 77 kg) versus 44 to 71 (20 to 32 kg), could result in puppies that are too large for the Poodle female to bring to term.

COAT COLOR

Leondoodles can inherit coat color from both parents, but browns and, more often, a rich black will predominate. Leondoodles don’t come in an extensive variety of colors but have an intense coat color.
