Barb, you have it right, Heidi is a cross between a golden retriever and a
Labrador retriever. She looks more like a black lab.
Don, the guide dog school where Heidi came from is using lots of labradoodles
these days. They get upset with terms likeLabradoodle and Goldador, prefering
terms like a labrador and poodle mix. There is an
Australian labradoodle which is actually several different breeds combined.
However, the guide dog schools I know of, and many Americans, will breed poodle
to lab. It was brought to my attention that they were created in Australia as
a non-shedding guide dog, but that none of the schools are using them over
there any more. I wonder why....anyone have info?
