By Frank Davis


You may actually be in the market right now for a pet of some sort and are currently mulling your choice of dog. You may have an inkling to visit the nearest labradoodle Chicago dealer in your vicinity to provide you with this breed. Before you do go out and get this dog however, do read on in this article for more information on it.

1988 was the basic birth year of this mixed breed. The breed is a mix of two other popular breeds being a poodle and a Labrador. It is a fairly young breed in relative terms and it still has to be determined if it is deserving of its own breed status or not.

As regards the parent lines of this breed, this dog is the product of two working dog lines. The poodle was bred for herding and guarding purposes on farms while Labradors were trained for boat duty in terms of retrieving tackle and supplies that fell overboard. Both these lines were later on bred for sporting purposes, but there have been mixed reactions from the breeding community regarding this.

As it is still a fairly young breed when compared to most, uniformity of behavior is basically hard to establish across time. However, it has been somewhat surmised that they are very enthusiastic in whatever they do and are always willing to please. They also possess a lot of energy and thus will definitely need a lot of space to move around in.

When taking care of this dog, or for any pet for that matter, a regular visit to the veterinarian is of course something that is always recommended. It is a very robust breed however, and you should have no problems in taking care of it. However, as it does age, you may come across joint and hip ailments.

Once you have decided on acquiring a puppy from this breed, expect to get either of two varieties of coats. This will either be a thicker and wavier wool coat or a thinner and less wavy fleece coat. The former will need a once yearly grooming while the former will require a daily brushing to prevent matting and tangling.

As this breed is one that is created from working type dogs, it will need a lot of protein in its diet as can be derived from sources such as chicken. Also be aware of foods that it cannot eat such as chocolates, grapes and cherries. You can also ask your vet alternate sources of proteins such as from grains and plants that your dog can avail of.

This article has thus shown some things that you should consider in getting a dog of this breed. Other considerations exist, such as price and upkeep also that you may need to further research into. In any case, do your homework fully before committing to a purchase.
