Pet dog (labradoodle)

[alferret]

Were thinking of getting a labradoodle, anyone have any experience of these crossbreeds?
Any info would be great, we have extensively searched the net and found out quite a lot about this type of dog but the info is mainly from breeders. We would love to have some information first hand from an owner.

TIA

Not as a first hand owner, but both sub breeds have great tempraments and it is a popular and expensive cross for the reason it is lab like with no moult.

The main reason for choosing this dog is temprament and more importantly the fact that there is little or no moulting. Mrs ferret has allergies that would be set off with a long\short haired moulting dog.

Well both are the reasons it was bread in the first place.
I have a retriever. They are fab, but furballs.

Were looking forward to adding a labradoodle to our family :)
Lots of exercise for me lol.

Its been a difficult choice as I dont really suffer from allergies, I wanted a chocolate lab but we we will be very happy with a chocy doodle :D
