Labradoodle: Comprehensive Owner's Guide

by Miriam Fields-Babineau, Mary Bloom (Photographs)

Dedicated to the world’s most popular designer dog, Labradoodle celebrates the “breed” created from the pairing of a Poodle and a Labrador Retriever. Professional animal trainer and author Miriam Fields-Babineau, a devoted fan of the Labradoodle, presents a look at the origins of both parent breeds as well as a glance at the unique nature of a Doodle—the special characteristics of the Labradoodle that combine the best traits of both parent breeds. The book includes the International Labradoodle Association’s standard for the Labradoodle as well as chapters on feeding, grooming, house-training, and obedience. The final chapter of the book titled “Experience Labradoodle Fun” talks about all of the exciting and challenging activities available for owners and their Doodles, including agility, flyball, dancing with dogs, and more.

I want to try her suggestions on bell ringing to go outside. I couldn't even get my pug to look at the bell. He really didn't respond to it at all. I hope to have more luck with Daisy!

Really good info. Concentrated on labradoodles only. Training, temperament, and a whole bunch of stuff that's kids can't stop looking at.
