Hi Kelly, Cindy here....I own http://www.doodlesandpoos.com and can sympathize with your....I get such backlash everyday from people. My site leads people to doodle and poo dogs be it through rescues or breeders. I have gotten so many hate letters from people that you can't imagine. From what I can tell, it seems to be that since they are not considered a "breed" yet, people get really nuts about it. But as we all know they are just as loving as any other dog! I love my labradoodle and my cockapoo! My Labradoodle is from rescue and my cockapoo from a breeder. Any dog can misbehave as we all know if they are not spent time with a trained with kindness. (your neighbors probably) Chin up and don't let them get to you!! Cindy (Madison and Eddie Bones too)
