I read all about them being allergy low and just great all around dogs. So, anyone with firsthand info or experience with this type of doggie?

They are low allergy dogs as they don't drop hair. Really.....It's like any doggie, if you don't put the love and care into training them and spending quantity time with them they are gonna muck up!

Originally Posted By friendofdd I've always preferred mongrels and have adopted several. The mix of breeds seems to make for a better tempered dog. I'm not sure, however, of the current tendency to deliberately breed mongrels and sell them at a high cost as a new breed.
Originally Posted By Labuda I've never heard of labradoodles before, but I think if ever I get a dog, maybe I should get one, since Labradoodle seems like a good dog for a Labuda.
