Standard and Medium Labradoodles

Standard and medium Labradoodles are the two most basic types of this breed. The main difference is their size. Since Labradoodles are a cross between Standard Poodles and Labrador Retrievers, the size of these dogs can be almost as varied as the color of their coats. Nevertheless, after over twenty years of research, classification, and breeding in Australia, breeders now have greater control over the expected size of certain puppies.

Standard and Medium Labradoodles for Adoption
Standard and medium Labradoodles make perfect companions for individuals or families. Although breeders now have better control over the sizes of the dogs, nature still provides some variation. When adopting a Labradoodle puppy, one should be flexible when it comes to the expectations one has for the dog's growth.

Regardless of their size, both standard and medium Labradoodles are extremely intelligent companions. Because of their great intelligence, we at Washington Labradoodles believe proper training is a necessity. Fortunately, they are easy to train and have a friendly temperament, making them wonderful additions to the family.

One of the main aspects that attracts people to Labradoodles is their allergy/asthma-friendly coat. Typically their coat is wool or fleece-like, similar to that found on poodles--this type of coat rarely sheds. In addition, these dogs have little or no body odor, making them the best choice for individuals worried about pet dander and potential allergic reactions.
