Editorial Review: Sashaying down the runway, the designer dogs have entered the new century with panache and style. No longer the taboo pups of a lost generation of Doodles, todays Labradoodles rank among Americas most fashionable companion dogs. Who can deny the allure and near perfection of this designer dog, the cross between the worlds two favorite companion dogs, the Poodle and the Labrador Retriever? The Labradoodle possesses the superior intelligence of the Poodle and the unbeatable athleticism of the Labrador Retriever; further he boasts the personality, good looks and hypoallergenic coat of his Poodle parent and the friendly disposition and desire to please of his Labrador parent.

LOVELY book about a WONDERFUL dog., 2007-12-07
A lovely book! My husband and I own two Australian Labradoodles. They are absolutely wonderful dogs and this book gives the reader all the information (and pictures!) needed to fully appreciate this breed.
We love our Doodles!

Labradoodle , 2007-04-25
This is a review for a book no one has asked J. Acomb "Typeface diva" to comment on a breed itself. I happen to like this breed and was looking for a book review not someone's smart comment.

Designer dogs are mutts sold for expensive prices. They are not a breed, because breeds must conform to certain specifications- size, shape, temperament, and so forth. When you purchase a designer dog, you are effectivly buying a lottery ticket to what may either be the puppy you have been promised, or a genetic nightmare. When dogs of two completely different breeds are bred, you can have NO idea on what the puppies will look like. You can't guarentee what the coat will look like, how large or small they will be, what their attitude will be like, or whether or not they will have a plethora of genetic problems.
Because of this, thousand of designer dogs are abandoned to shelters when their owners realize that the dog was not what the breeder had promised them.
RESPONSIBLE BREEDERS DO NOT BREED DESIGNER DOGS!
If you want a dog of a specific cross, look at your local humane society! There are mutts abounds there, and they have been tested for health and temperament problems. Go to [...], and you can even search by type of breed for dogs and cats near your home.
Contribute by saving an animal for [...]$ instead of helping overpopulation by spending 500$ on a puppy whose future you can't be able to predict.
