Background Information To Know Before Visiting Labradoodle Breeders Texas

By Kenneth Foster


Pets are popular companions for those who lack human companionship in general. Most popular pets to get would basically be a general choice between a dog or a cat if talking of the four legged variety. You are probably in Texas right now looking for a pet and have been asking around. A few of your friends and colleagues may have suggested you get a dog by visiting one of several labradoodle breeders Texas facilities in the area. Before you do finally commit, do finish this article to get some much needed background information on this sort of dog breed.

The breed was created or formed in the country of Australia in 1955, being a cross between two sporting breeds of the poodle and Labrador lines. Being a sporting breed cross one can expect this breed to be very active. 1988 was the beginning of its popularity due to its supposed hypoallergenic coat properties.

Although it has been around for a while, the breed lacks the consistency that is usually seen in other breeds, in terms of temperament and physical characteristics. It is basically a crap shoot in getting either a dog that is quiet smart and reserved and with a high maintenance coat or one that is rowdy and slow to mature and also having a coat that sheds a lot, or a mixture of these two kinds of labradoodle.

In terms of physical appearance and coat characteristics it is really no guarantee that they will get the same coats as the parent generation. They can actually get coats that are extreme opposites of their parents, being either very mat and tangle prone and high maintenance or one that is fairly easy to maintain.

Due to its fur type, whether it is non shedding or high shedding, the fur needs to be brushed at least twice a week, as most are still capable to some form of minimal matting and tangling. This regular brushing should also include regular nail clipping and ear hair trimming, of at least once a month.

This breed can be termed as one of the friendliest, if not the friendliest breed around. It would be a big mistake in assuming that you can make this breed into a guard dog, for it may bark for while but can actually get friendly with a robber or intruder that just might get into your home. Due to their friendly nature, most first time owners will find them a joy to be with.

Due to their sporting breed background, they need to keep active and needs at least an hour of exercise and outdoor activities a day. Due to their high energy levels, it is not advisable that they are not kept in small places like apartments. They are also good to have around kids, but their high energy and rambunctious behavior may knock children down by accident.

And finally when you do decide to get this breed, deal only with reputable dealers. Do not go for puppy mill creations or those from irresponsible breeders. In doing so, you can be sure that you will get good bred dogs with fairly stable temperaments and no health issues.
