Height: Standard 22-24 inches (53-60 cm.), Miniature 17-22 inches (44-56 cm.)

Color: The color of the Labradoodle’s coat can be white, cream, gold, apricot, red, brown and black, and other Poodle colors.

Country of Origin: The development of the Labradoodle first started in 1989, when Wally Conron crossed the Labrador Retriever and Standard Poodle for Guide Dogs Victoria in Australia.

Activities: The Labradoodle needs to be taken outdoors and exercised from time to time. This breed was developed to be a guide dog for the blind, and was also used as assistance dogs and therapy dogs.
