Australian Labradoodle Puppies North Carolina

The most important need of Australian Labradoodle puppies North Carolina is companionship. These are friendly, loyal, sociable dogs, intelligent and easy to train. They love people, kids, other pets, walks, travel, new faces, new places. Strong and energetic but not hyper, and with a calm disposition, this is a go anywhere companion. Friends with allergies to dog hair will appreciate the low to non shedding coat.



In the 1980’s Wally Conran of Royal Guide Dogs crossed a Lab with a Poodle to create a hypoallergenic service dog. Of the 1st 31 puppies, a phenomenal 29 passed service dog training, but only 3 were allergy friendly.



Two breed and research centers, Tegan Park and Rutland Manor, were established to continue development of this intelligent breed, especially development of an allergy friendly coat. Other allergy friendly breeds (Cocker Spaniel, American Spaniel, Irish Water Spaniel) were added to the lineage. Labradoodles with desirable traits were bred to each other. Multi-generational breeding has created a breed with predictable physical characteristics and temperament.



Your reputable breeder will provide registry of the puppies. The Australian Labradoodle Club In America, the ALCA, can verify lineage tracing the family tree to the original breeding dogs from either Tegan Park or Rutland Manor. Other large registries include the Australian Labradoodle Association (ALA), and the International Labradoodle Association (ILC).



This is a very healthy breed coming from very healthy stock, i. E. Labs and Poodles. They’re susceptible to hip dysplasia and patella disorder as they age. Parent dogs should be DNA tested for progressive retinal atrophy before breeding. Addison’s disease can occur in this breed. Currently there’s no DNA or any other test to predict this disorder. Discuss the likelihood of this health problem with your breeder.



Coat types are wool, fleece, or hair. Wool is soft, hypoallergenic, and non-shedding. Fleece can be curly or wavy. It’s silky and low or non shedding, an allergy friendly choice. Regular doggy hair is considered a fault but does occur. These puppies have the same great temperament, make great pets and service dogs, but should not be bred.



Labradoodles require more grooming than Labs, but less than Poodles. Clean the ear canal weekly to ward off ear infections. Brush weekly. Trim the coat every 3 to 4 months for easy maintenance.



Standards weigh 50-65 pounds, medium dogs 30-40 pounds, and miniatures are 16-25 pounds. Expect your new companion to live 13-15 years. Colors include apricot/gold, red, black, silver, blue, caramel, chocolate, cafe, parchment, lavender, chalk, cream, apricot cream, caramel, red. Black puppies with fibers of silver will turn silver. Milk chocolate dogs with streaks of cream will turn parchment. Eyes can be honey, amber, brown, or hazel.



Australian Labradoodle puppies North Carolina are great family dogs, service dogs, guide dogs, therapy dogs. They’re sensitive to their families needs, great with special needs children. Many autistic children are able to interact in marvelous ways with this special breed. They’re watchdogs but not guard dogs, friendly to all and not aggressive. They don’t tolerate a great deal of alone time. They especially don’t like to be left alone in a backyard. No matter which size you choose, Australian Labradoodles want to be house dogs, a loyal and constant companion.
