Proper Treatment and Care

I recently purchased a Labradoodle which has proved to be rewarding in many ways. She is smart, quickly trained, and affectionate. The problem is that I am having is with groomers who want to make her look like a poodle. We love her long, full hair,but the groomers tell us horror stories about how she will go blind. People only let their hair grow for "shows", and two different groomers have wanted to cut hair around her eyes which completely alters her look. We want a labradoodle, not a poodle. I wish there was more information about this on the internet. We don't want our dog to be blind, but want her to look like a labradoodle.

   Then find another groomer and ask them to cut her like a portuguese water dog.

POV and Citations

Hey folks, this article has some great sourcing but lacks inline citation. In addition, several of the cited sources contradict the article itself. The following statement from the article for example: "Labradoodles are considered a good choice for people with canine dander allergies, since some have the same hypoallergenic coat as their poodle ancestors." This was sourced with the following footnote: "Labradoodles are not automatically hypoallergenic; to produce dogs with coats that do not aggravate allergies, they must be bred by a person competent in selective breeding who is well-versed in genetic testing.<nowiki>" And then, the footnote is sourced with an article that lists peer reviewed scholarly sources that hypoallergenic dogs don't exist.

Indeed. Just as it states that Labradoodles are the 2nd smartest dog. But the source link doesn't even have them in the top 10. I think the LD breeder community is fudging the numbers on their product. YY 13:22, 20 September 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by YingYang2 (talk • contribs)

Poodle 🐩 is the male?
