Labradoodles Information

Labradoodles are available in three sizes and offer an allergy free pet option for their owners. A cross between a Labrador Retriever and a Standard Poodle, Labradoodles were originally bred as guide dogs for the disabled that need allergy free pets. Labradoodles are intelligent, making the possibilities for these dogs endless.
