All About Labradoodles

If you want to add a labradoodle puppy to your family, it’s important to find reputable Labradoodle Breeders who make health and temperament a priority.

At Mi-de-doodles, we researched and studied for two years before we even had our first labradoodle puppy.  Millie, had been an amazing mom and has given us twenty two beautiful puppies so far. She is the sweetest girl and truly loves being a mom. She is so nurturing and is very patient with them.labradoodle-puppies

The Beginnings of the Labradoodle

 Labradoodle were orginally bred in the 1980’s by Australian breeder Wally Conron.  He wanted to create a hypoallergenic dog to help people with allergies.

For many years the labrador retriever has been the most popular breed and considered one of the best breeds for families. But today more google searches are for the labradoodle because people love the lower shedding. Labradoodle puppies combine the intelligence of the poodle and loyalty of the labrador making them great pets for adults and childrens alike!              

Labradoodles are very easy to train and as a result they are often used and therapy and service animals.  If that is what you are in search of, Labradoodle breeders should be able to suggest a puppy that might be best to fill that need.  This can be, determined in part, through temperament testing.                                   

Labradoodle puppies come in many colors and coat types. You may like a chocolate, a shade of red or perhaps a black one.  But because they are mixed with a poodle, your color selection is even broader.  Merle’s parti’s and abstracts are also available. Find out more about coloring

You may also be interested in finding out what generation your labradoodle is.  When they breed a labrador to a poodle, the resulting puppies will be F1. That means they are half of each breed and create hybrid vigor. If one of those grows up and is bred back to a poodle to get even less shedding, it is an F1b. Now you have 75% poodle and 25% labrador. And there are many other combinations. 

At Mi-de doodles our focus is to breed to keep the percentage of labrador as high as possible while also creating low shedding coats.  Although we personally prefer the wavy or straighter coats, we usually have a few curly coats in each litter that people love.  As a result, most of our puppies will be more of a multigenerational pup.
