Dog Breeds

Labradoodle

The Labradoodle is a cross between a Labrador Retriever and either a Standard or Miniature Poodle. The temperament of these important family members is influenced by a wide range of factors including genetic inheritance, training and socialization. Depending on how they were bred, the breed may vary in size, shape, and coat. But even with that in mind, these versatile dogs make wonderful family companions with the right care and upbringing.

Nevertheless, expectedly, the Labradoodle is a pleasantly playful and curious companion. Due to its trusting nature, it treats even strangers as best friends. Due to the intelligence and gentle temperament inherited from both parents, Labradoodle makes a great companion for children and adults as well. Hypoallergenic fur makes it an ideal companion for people with allergies.

    • Size

    The height of the Labradoodle depends on the size of the parents. However, as usual, representatives of both genders of the breed stand around 30-70 centimeters in height. As for other physical data, their length ranges from 36 to 67 centimeters.

    • Weight 

    Individual cases of Labradoodle weight vary according to genetics, diet, and health status. But still, as a rule, adult representatives of the breed weigh from 5 to 40 kilograms.

    • Lifespan

    A Labradoodle’s life expectancy ranges from 12 to 15 years and is roughly equivalent to a human lifespan of 69-83 years. Yet, remember, these figures are only conditional, and the life longing of your important family members depends on a healthy lifestyle and a harmonious living environment.

    • Fur

    The Labradoodle is a hybrid breed, so the texture and length of its fur can vary significantly between individuals. The color of these important family members also depends on the color of the parents’ fur. Yet, you will find representatives of the breed mainly in blue, black, beige, and brown colors. 

    The hypoallergenic nature of the fur mainly depends on the specific coat type and the dog’s genetics. Because of the Poodle gene, Labradoodles rarely shed, which is a big plus for allergy sufferers. Despite being hypoallergenic, the Labradoodle’s curly or wavy fur requires regular grooming. It’s desirable to brush them daily.
