Doh! I thought the lunatic, ill-informed rhetoric sounded

Worse even if the NEW CHESADOR....: (

Half Chessie Half Lab.

We do NOT NEED a Chessie That ACTS Like a LAB.


Nor a dog that looks like a Lab but acts like a Chessie!

I'm seeing a LOT of Labradoodles in the last couple of years- and am
starting to see "Goldendoodles" as well- and the temperaments are all over
the map. Some are nice dogs; others combine such things as the Poodle
tendency to bully, nip, and harass other dogs with the insensitivity and
hardheadedness of a poorly-bred Lab.

And the last two "Goldendoodles" I've met- both puppies, from two
different "breeders"- sure as hell looked to me like they were candidates
for hip surgery before the age of one. I'm betting the Golden half of the
equation was your typical BYB/puppymill dysplastic mess.

Interesting. I heard that the origin of the "labradoodle" was Seeing Eye
foundations that were experimenting with this cross to create a
"hypo-allergenic" seeing eye dog and that one of the traits of this

crossing
was a dog who does not shed or create much dander.



I've heard that as well, and I've read or heard that it took 2-3
generations to "fix" the low dander aspect. Of course, the current problem
is that "breeders" looking for a quick buck have jumped on latest fad
bandwagon, and are sticking together any old Poodle and Lab.
