What is a Labradoodle?

It's me, Traveller!

My parents are purebred dogs. Mom is a Yellow Labrador Retreiver. She is pretty special because she is part of a special group of dogs that retrieve. Her owner has many dogs that have won awards for this. I'm not sure if my doggy mom has any awards. My doggy dad is a big handsome black standard poodle. That makes me a F1 Labradoodle. (First generation Labradoodle).

I have my doggy mom's coloring but my body is shaped liked my dad - poodle. Long legs and thin waist. It's hard to tell under all my wavy fur that I'm really so lean. I'm definitely a Doodle.

I love to hike with my human mom and dad. They take me out into the woods. Lots of good smells. I even climbed (ran) up a mountain. I left my mom and dad in the dust and took off and got to the top a good half-hour before them. I was so proud!

On the way I found a dead frog and rolled in that just to smell like nature.

My mom and dad weren't very happy that I made it to the top before them and for some really STRANGE reason, they didn't like my froggy smell.

They said I was stinky. (What do they know?) They also told me I was bad for running off without them. I was fine, of course. It's just too bad they couldn't keep up with me. I guess they should try a little harder.

I love my forever home and my big "little" sister, Zuzi. She's a Yorkshire Terrier. Even though she doesn't like to play with me. A playful nip on the butt doesn't seem to help, but I'll keep trying until she comes around.
