Standard Labradoodle

Created by crossing the Labrador Retriever and the Poodle, the Standard Labradoodle is seen all over the USA today.

The Standard Labradoodle weighs 50-60lbs in weight and measures 23-26 inches in height. This breed stands very tall, confident and lean in appearance. Their coat is available in red, chocolate, black, merle, apricot, fawn, blue, grey, cream, with or without white markings. Their hair texture can be from small tighter curls to loose, wavy hair. Their two round eyes are black or brown. Their nose is black or brown. Their large, soft ears fall gently alongside of their face. They can have a rectangular or triangular muzzle. Their tail is long and can be curled up over their back or straight. 

Known for their energetic personality, the Labradoodle is a fantastic addition to families with children and active lifestyles. This breed generally does well with other dogs and pets. Due to their retriever genetics, they may or may not have a prey drive. Always monitor your dog with smaller children and pets. This breed is a highly intelligent breed which can also be accompanied by stubbornness at times. Regular play time and mental stimulation is necessary. Early socialization and puppy training is highly encouraged. As always, we only ever recommend positive reinforcement training methods.

The Labradoodle sheds very little. Daily brushing is required to avoid matting in their hair. Regular professional grooming is highly recommended. 

Please note that this breed is not meant for everyone. The Labradoodle can have high prey drive and is not always suited for small children and small pets. Proper training at a young age can help redirect these issues. This breed is high energy even into adulthood and years after. Please fully educate yourself about this breed prior to adding one to your family to ensure a life long commitment physically and financially for your new dog. A proper leash and harness or properly fenced in yard is highly recommended for your new addition. All dogs originate from wolves (Canis Lupus). Each breed of dog was originally created by mixing different breeds together in an effort to bring forth certain characteristics. Dog DNA testing companies can have accurate results for a specific bloodline of a small colony of dogs. However, there are tens of thousands of different bloodlines in the world which have not yet been tested for marker baseline results by Dog DNA testing companies as of 2024. For this reason Dog DNA testing companies do not guarantee the 100% accuracy of their breed lineage results and will also show different marker results for the same pure-bred breed in different continents, countries, territories, regions, breed clubs, and canine pure-breed registries depending on the goals of their breeders.
