Why Australian Labradoodles?
Australian Labradoodles are known for their gentle and loving temperaments, athleticism, beautiful curly, wavy, fleecy, wool coats, gorgeous coloring of chocolate, red, apricot, cream, black, carmel, and gold colors, very intelligent, low /no shedding, asthma and allergy friendly, no-odor. They are bred for the best health a dog could wish for! We are proud members of WALA. World Wide Association of Australian Labradoodles.
The Australian Labradoodle Club of America states: “In the early days, the Australian Labradoodle was simply a cross between a Labrador Retriever and a Standard Poodle. Dogs from this cross typically were bred to each other over future generations, whereby the Australian dogs were also known as “multi-generational” Labradoodles.
Then, in the late 1980’s, Tegan Park and Rutland Manor, the two founders of the Australian Labradoodle (as we know it today), began carefully infusing several other breeds into early generations of their Lab/Poodle crosses to improve temperament, coat, confirmation, and size. The infused breeds include the Irish Water Spaniel as well as the American and English Cocker Spaniel. The resulting labradoodles subsequently have been bred to each other, continuing the multi-generational tradition.
Today, Australian Labradoodles are wonderful, intelligent dogs with lush coats that are more reliably low to non-shedding and allergy friendly than other types of Labradoodles such as the original first generation Lab/Poodle crosses, or first generation crosses bred back to Poodles. Even when the other types of Labradoodles are bred for generations, the result is not an Australian Labradoodle, as the attributes of the infused breeds were not included in their ancestry.”
