FAQs

Which one is better, a Goldendoodle or a Labradoodle?

Both breeds are excellent choices, but it depends on your lifestyle. Labradoodles are known for their playful and active nature and make excellent service dog candidates, while a Goldendoodle may require a bit more patience due to the Golden Retriever’s sometimes stubborn nature. A Standard size Goldendoodle will be slightly larger than a Labradoodle. Both are intelligent and family-friendly.

Labradoodles are low-shedding hypoallergenic dogs, but some shedding may occur depending on their coat type and which generation they are. Regular grooming can help manage loose hair effectively.

Labradoodles typically have a lifespan of 12–15 years with proper care, a balanced diet, and regular vet check-ups.

Yes, Labradoodles are often considered hypoallergenic due to their low-shedding coats, but sensitivity varies by individual. Regular grooming helps minimize allergens and keeps them looking their best.

Grooming involves regular brushing to prevent matting, trimming their coat every 6–8 weeks, and cleaning their ears to avoid infections. A slicker brush and a metal comb will give you a good start. You may also want to clip or scissor their coats by yourself as well as regular nail trims.

The cost of a Labradoodle depends on factors like the breeder’s reputation, the puppy’s lineage, and specific coat or size preferences. Always choose a breeder who prioritizes the health and well-being of their parent dogs. Most importantly, check to be sure the puppies are not inbred.

Labradoodle pricing varies based on factors like the breeder’s practices, coat type, and size. Opt for reputable breeders to ensure a healthy, well-cared-for puppy. Having conversations with the breeder about their program and the lineage of the puppies will help you determine if the cost is justified.

Labradoodles can range from 15 to 24 inches tall and weigh between 25 to 65 pounds, depending on whether they are miniature, medium, or standard size.

Labradoodles are friendly, intelligent, and outgoing, making them excellent family dogs and companions. Within a litter, there are temperament differences between the puppies.

Yes, Labradoodles can be left for short periods of time. Crate training is an essential step to ensuring the happiness and safety of your puppy.
