She's been a great addition to our life, Linda, and thanks for the welcoming.
Roxy does seem to approach hunting as her job. She knows when she sees me in camo that it is "game time" for her and her happy go lucky attitude changes into "I wanna win" attitude. I'll never forget the look she gave me three years ago when she had her "a-ha" moment. I had shot a bird and she did everything perfectly. She watched me shoot and marked the bird. She looked at me before I sent her on the retrieve as if to say, "A-ha! I now understand what this is all about!" and promptly retrieved the bird. She's been spot-on as far as I'm concerned since then! |

but be happy with your bra size! Theres no telling how big they will get, they will grow but you know,Some people actually check the field performance background of the lines they are considering as thoroughly as they do the health clearances.

I am suprised that all the Labradoodle people, don't know that Labradoodles are bred to hunt. The Lab and the standard poodle are both great hunting dogs. In fact there are many breeders across the country that breed labradoodles for hunting.

I've had a few of my pups sell to be trained for hunting. The guys that have them seem very pleased with them! One told of how his fellow hunters stared and wisecracked about him showing up with a Labradoodle until they saw the dog actually working, at which time they were quite impressed.
My Dazy is a pointing lab, which of course gets noticed when I have hunters here looking at pups, but the 2 I get the feedback on both came out of an English lab dam that I didn't see any signs of hunting instinct in. I know next to nothing about hunting with dogs, but love watching the guys testing the pups for those instincts when they are here.

We have a judge down south that uses 2 he purchased from us (St.Clair Labradoodle Kennels)for duck hunting and he loves them.
You must be sure to remove the dew claws if you want to use them for field work.Also the coats must be kept short for field work or you will have a real mess from the briars.Hopes this answers your questions. |

Can doodles handle the icy cold water that comes with duck hunting? And for those of you guys experienced with hunting doodles, will a 50-55lb male doodle have what it takes to be a waterfowl dog? Looking at a f1b. thanks!

Hi all, I have been looking for a dog for some years now and have discovered the labradoodle! These posts are great, and great looking dogs also.
My situation is that I am highly allergic to animals, but I am an avid hunter of ducks and geese and pheasants. My family wants a dog so this seems to be the perfect fit for us. I would prefer to have a female to train and breed just a couple of times so that when my 20 and 19 y.o. boys are ready to be dog owners they can have a good quality pet that they too will love. I do not want to be a breeder, just want to have a way for the boys to have a few pups in the future. If anyone can help me find the best possible dog, and breeder for a hunting animal, I would greatly appreciate it... Thanks for everyones insite and help with finding our new family member.
