Unlikely, yes, possible, yes. If the dog turns out to have the right drives and enjoys the bite, you both have fun, and are welcome in the club, go for it. If it feels like you have to 'train' the dog to tug and bite, why bother. Find your dogs drive, train accordingly.
I love schutzhund, never done it, but love it. The dogs are doing what they are mentally and physically built for.
I'm sure there are 'mongrels' out there who have all the right stuff and would shine also, but given the breed characteristics of goldens and poodles and it's probably not likely that a golden-doodle would be into the bite work.
