[quote=Anonymous]http://www.vetstreet.com/dogs/labradoodle#upper-tabs http://www.globalanimal.org/2010/12/02/man-who-created-labradoodles-regrets-the-cross-breed/ I once looked at border collie/lab mixes. The goal of the person who bred these dogs was to get the border collie fur on the lab body/lab temperment. Some had border collie faces and bodies with lab coats. Because of the wide heads and stockiness of some labs they are a common breed for shelters to list as part of a pitbull mix [or pure] possibility. So what happens to labradoodles that aren't born with the desired coat? And with each dog the allergy/shedding issues are unknown without testing. When looking at shelter/rescue sites I see lots of dogs that have poodle like faces and bodies with coats similar to labradors. We had neighbors years ago with a wheaten. Nice dog. The wheaten's also seem to have less of that terrier drive. If you want a swimmer /retrieving playmate I'd go with the Portuguese. [/quote]
