Pound rescue dogs sometimes come with a lot of baggage & it takes so much time & patience. Rescue dogs should go to people that are really serious & are willing to deal with the many problems or else the poor dog will end up back at the pound again. It is so hard to get people to understand that.
Really? Maybe someone should mention that to my dog.

Dogs are in shelter because of bad owners - plain and simple. The number one reason that a dog is surrendered is because the owners are moving. That's not the dog's fault - it's the fault of the owners for not caring enough about a life in their hands. Maybe there are adult dogs that need training - so does the puppy you buy. Every dog will have some issues that they will need specific training with, however if it's a dog from a shelter - people are quick to assume that that's the reason why they are misbehaving. "Oh, it's a shelter dog." But what about the purebred dog from a backyard breeder? What will you blame their problems on?

Labradoodles were specifically bred for the size, temperament, stability and trainability factors of the Labrador, a breed that has long been used as a Guide Dog, and the non-shedding coat of the poodle
How many labradoodle breeders are selling their dogs as guide dogs? Maybe that's the way the breed started out, but it ended up with everybody and their mother wanting one of these "new breeds".
