What a lovely dog! I've never heard of this breed before. Can you tell us more about her? (I'm assuming it's a her from the Tiff name).
Welcome to Pet Talk. Hopefully from now on you will be treated more graciously :rolleyes:
Welcome to Pet Talk! Sorry for the unkind welcome. That is not representative of the rest of the folks here! I have two poodles, a standard poodle named Bella and a miniature poodles named Ripley (in my signature). Your Labradoodle is very pretty. I see a lot of poodle in her! :) Please do stick around and let us get to know you!
WELCOME, WELCOME WELCOME TO PETTALK!!!!! Man'O Man she (?) is SO BEE-YOO-TEE-FULL!!!!!!!!
My introduction was not rude, it was a simple question. Learn to read folks, not just imply everything.
And for the person who asked, Labradoodles are obviously a mix I'm sure you figured that out already :) They were orginially made by back yard breeders. So please if you want one some day, get an abandoned one left in rescue, and not from a byb.
There are alot of wonderful people here, I'm sure you'll find that out if you stick around (hope you do, I'd love to hear & see more of your beautiful dog!).
And thanks Nomilynn for posting Mich's pics!!
Welcome to pet talk. I think that you labradoodle is precious.
Labradoodles were not from back yard breeders originally, The hunters started cross breeding the labrador and standard poodle, and what they came up with was an awsome retriever, the labradoodle is up and coming one of the top hunting dogs. The standard poodle is one of the best water retrieving dogs. The back yard breeders got into the act as the breed was becoming popular with so many. As they do with any breed.
A friend of mine has one and she chooses to keep his coat a little long. He is the color of a wheaten terrier. He has one of the best attitudes ever.
WOW :eek: :eek: :eek:
Welcome to Pet talk, we all just love it here and I hope you do to! Your dog, wow, I mean she is just wonderful!!

mich also congratulations on rescueing your mutt, one more life saved from the hand of man
Labradoodles have been used extensively in England for seeing eye dogs. They have been found to be the correct size and very trainable. Kennels have been crossing them since the 1960's. A labradoodle have proven to be calmer than the Labrador so better for the job.
Your Tiff is beautiful.

I am not condeming the dogs themselves. I disagree with bringing yet even more new breeds to this world, with the gross over population we already have.
Creating and maintaining a new breed, or introducion one to a new area just creates a new fad for some people and that makes a problem. The large majority of Labradoodles and other recent such mixes are from BYB's in this country.
In my mind, anyone who breeds animals like this is not a reputable breeder.
You don't have to agree with me, but you don't have to argue it either. Most of the people I run into who have or want labradoodles are simply because "they are so cute!" they know nothing of their origin, or their purposes else where, and they pay up the ying yang to get it from a supposide "breeder".
What a gorgeous dog!! :eek: I love his/her (?) long legs and sweet sweet face. What a beauty! I have a black toy poodle - they are so smart, aren't they!!?! Welcome to the forum!! Please post more pics soon. :) :D :)
Dear Animal Lover, I am one of softest people when it comes to animals. I have had a number of Toy Poodles die a terrible death from what pure bred breeders call ""Line Breeding""". I was not going to get another dog because I could not take the pain in those little eyes looking at me asking me to help them, when there was nothing I could do....no one could do, in fact. My daughter talked me into buying Tiffany, and it is the best thing I did. The vet said that the mix between two healthy Vet Tested dogs will produce a fine, healthy companion. I saw both parents, and yes she came from Melbourne. Her Dame was a cream Labrador Retriver and her Sire was a White Standard Poodle.
These were first bred in Australia for Guide Dogs, but not many get through, as they are a very people dog and do have high intelligence. Some get distracted easily. BUT from that cross breeding, they found that they got a good, sound family dog which in the first litter 95% of them are not shedding.I hope I have told you a little about her history?
