What is a Comfort Retriever? We are the creator of the Comfort Retriever. We are great golden retriever lovers. Over the years we have had so many people say that they wanted a golden retriever but found the breed a bit too big for them. We have had the vision for years of creating a hybrid that looked and acted like a golden retriever but in a smaller, more comfortable size. Hence the creation of the Comfort Retriever. Our first hybrid was a cross of a cocker retriever and a golden retriever. We found this was close but not close enough. The ears were way to big. We chose an excellent tempered cocker spaniel to breed to but despite our diligence we found that occasionally we had a pup that had the ill tempered cocker temperament that the cockers are well known for. We found this totally unacceptable for something that was to model after the mellow golden retriever. So we discontinued the cocker breeding and started our program all over. Many are still copying our discontinued program and breeding to cockers and are calling the pups comfort retrievers.

What is a Comfort Retriever composed of? After much work we finally came up with the perfect mix of breeds. We selectively bred a mini goldendoodle that looked just like a small golden retriever to a very petite golden retriever. This not only gave the great temperament and small size but some hyper allergenic and decreased shedding traits. Technically this hybrid could be called goldendoodles but they selectively bred and look much different than the traditional goldendoodle. Due to the high percentage of golden retriever and small percentage of poodle we don't suggest this hybrid for allergy sufferers.
