About Labradoodles

The labradoodle is the perfect combination of a poodle and a Labrador retriever. These dogs are becoming more and more popular each year. One reason for this popularity is that this breed of dog is hypo-allergenic and will not irritate the noses of those with allergies.

Another great thing about labradoodles is that they come in two sizes. There is the standard labradoodle and miniature labradoodles. Many people who live in the city or in smaller apartments may choose the miniature version, while others may find a standard labradoodle more suited to the wide open spaces of the country. 

I have the best story about getting our family dog Monty. The whole family was on a skiing trip in Idaho and we hadn’t planned on getting a new puppy. In fact, we already had two cats and a parrot at home, so we didn’t really need anymore pets. We were renting a cabin near the Sun Valley Ski resort and there was an old country store nearby.

One day we noticed a sign in the window that said labradoodle for sale. It turned out the women who owned the shop was being forced, due to finances, to move into a small apartment that didn’t allow dogs. Her story was so sad we immediately took pity on her and decided to take Monty home. He’s such a sweet dog and so loving … we don’t know what we’d do without him!
