Im not to sure how much i should pay for one since im looking online?

No such thing – a "labradoodle" is a mutt. A cross between a lab and a poodle. They are not recognized by ANY organization and have to breed standard due to the fact that you cannot predict ANYTHING when you breed mutts.

So if you want one, adopt one from a shelter for a small fee. And never get a dog off the internet – scam city. They could take your money and not give a dog, they could send you a different dog than you paid for, they could send you an ill dog… need i go on?

Im looking to buy a labradoodle puppy.

Reputable and labradoodle breeder are a contradiction of terms.

I was watching Dogs 101 and heard about the Labradoodle. I’m not sure between a Labradoodle or a Yorkie. Which do you think is better?

It depends on how much space you have for a dog. If you have a big yard, then a Labordoodle might be good. They are also good with kids. This would be a easier dog to train. But they eat a lot and need a lot of exercise. Can you walk him every day. You have to train and socialize this dog…It may need a bit of grooming with the poodle mixed in but not as much as a Yorkie.

If you have a small yard or an apartment and don’t have kids then a Yorkie might be good. They are delicate dogs and can be snappy. Small children don’t always do well with that breed…they can hurt each other. Yorkies are also barkers unless you train them, and they are terriers. (I have a different breed of terrier…and I like most terriers) Yorkies need a lot of grooming.

Yorkies are good companion dogs. They don’t eat a lot and they are just cute as they can be…but they can be temperamental so you do have to train him and work with him…the don’t need a lot of exercise as the Labordoodle, but a little exercise is good..just don’t over do it.

Hi, my labradoodle has something wrong with his left ear, it isn’t effecting his right ear at all. He has lots of gunky brown stuff in the ear canal, and when i move his ear around it sounds like theres liquid in it. He wines when i touch the out side in the wrong spot or put anything the vet told me i should try putting in it. Any suggestions?

continue putting the medication in that the vet prescribed.. he will whine, its an infection, and it hurts.. the antibiotics should help within a few days.. if there’s no improovement after being on the medication for a few days, take him back to the vet, he may need a different type of antibiotic.

I am looking for a first generation Labradoodle. Yes I realize they are "designer" breeds. No I do not want a lecture on puppy mills, or impure dogs. I just want an answer to my question. Thanks for your time!

I’m normally really anal about this, but I just got home from a very sad movie and don’t feel like saying things. . .

Anyways, look here – http://www.pets4you.com/labradoodle.html

And since I don’t know your area I can’t look for breeders locally in your area.

Not ALL of those are reputable, so take time to find one.

ETA: Yes, yes we all know Labradoodle’s aren’t true pure breeds, but just give the asker an answer they want and move on… Goodness…

ETA: NOT true. SOME breeders of these dogs want them to become a true breed and are breeding them for the overall health of these dogs and in general helping the dog society. I could careless about the BYBs that breed these, but really.. Move on.

We are getting a Labradoodle and her color coat is a special color so I want a special name for her. Any ideas?

Water-related names:
Aerowyn, Anat, Aqua, Aysu, Dalma, Darya, Helle, Manami, Maya, Mayim, Meri, Mira, Muirenn, Nanami, Nereida, Nerida, Nerissa, Rosemary, Shannon, Su, Tallulah,

Intelligence-related names:
Akemi, Aki, Akiko, Akira, Bertha, Clara, Dipti, Eirian, Jin, Phoebe, Roxana, Shideh, Shirley

Generous Names:
Charity, Semiha

Would it be unfair to my dog (a labradoodle) to have her in a tiny one bedroom apartment?

Assuming you are willing and able to provide adequate exercise for the dog, sure it would be okay. Contrary to popular opinion, dogs with yards or larger homes don’t just exercise themselves – they still need structured walks, play, training, etc.

I have been researching the cross breed and am wondering if there is a difference between a labradoodle and a "multi-gen Australian labradoodle"?

They are both mixed breeds that are no more special than any mixed breed you can find in a shelter.

The second is just making a bad attempt to sell what she has as "special" by slapping a big price tag on it and giving it an extra dumb name.

There is no point really in researching because amongst just one litter of poodle/lab crosses, there can be any number of genetic combinations. You can have a lab coat with Poodle temperament, a poodle coat with lab temperament, and any mix in between. They most certainly are not non-shedding as most "breeders" of this mix will tell you. It is all a genetic jumble and you could end up with any part of the mix.

So there is no difference at all between a Lab/poodle mix, a labradoodle, or a mulit-gen Australian Labradoodle.

ETA: To the poster who said a labradoodle is not a mutt…you contadicted yourself in your own statement. You say it is not a breed, but then say it is not a mutt because a mutt is "of no distcint heritage" If it isn’t a purebred, then yes, technically it has no distinct (as in one breed) parentage.

It is a mutt, crossbreed, mix, or whatever you choose to call it. Some people just take ‘mutt’ to mean something offensive. ~shrug~ it is exactly what any crossbreed is. I’ve owned plenty of shelter mutts, most with one or two breeds crossed in. Does that mean when doggy DNA tests finally get foolproof (which they aren’t now), that we will have no more ‘mutts’ because we know what breeds are in them? Nope.
