An excellent and insightful book that explains how the Australian Labradoodle was developed into a wonderful breed and then further evolved into the Cobberdog. There is great information about training and grooming, among other things, that I found extremely helpful. I have an 8-1/2 year old Australian Labradoodle and he has been the easiest, gentlest, smartest, and most trainable dog I have ever had. I hope to also get a Cobberdog some day because with Beverly Rutland-Manners being the perfectionist she is, I can only imagine how amazing the Cobberdog breed is. The book is easy to read and a valuable resource. Highly recommend!

Interesting read about the origins of the Australian Labradoodle & Cobberdog breed

Having just acquired in Australian Labradoodle I was very interested to read this in depth book about how the Australian labradoodle and Australian Cobberdog breeds were developed. I also appreciated all the tips given for training and grooming. I've already put a couple of the training tips in action with my nine week old puppy and I'm extremely pleased how successfully they worked!

Excellent presentation of the founding of the Australian Cobberdog and the rationale behind why this dog makes such an amazing companion, therapist & family member. Provides an insightful look int the psyche of any dog, especially one as intelligent and willing to serve. Includes excellent tips on training and grooming, the conformation of the breed and a chapter on how to physically manage breeding.

For History of Labradoodles and Cobberdogs

As our family is interested in Cooberdogs so I appreciated the history and detailed process of developing the breed. It also clearly distinguished the labradoodle from the cobberdog which is helpful
