Dudley is our F1 Standard Labradoodle from Max & Penney 2021 litter. Sadie is our sweet Continental Kennel Club (CKC) registered Standard Poodle. Dudley and Sadie blessed us with a beautiful healthy litter of F1b Labradoodles in April 2024. We hope to have future litters with these two!!
About F1 and F1b Labradoodles
A FI Labradoodle is a cross between a Standard Poodle and a Labrador Retriever. The main advantage of F1 breeding is they have the highest possibilities of hybrid vigor, which means they will be healthier with fewer genetic defects. A well-bred F1 gets the best balance from both the Lab and Poodle; they have a sweet and playful temperament and are intuitive, quick learners (often used as therapy dogs). The coat of a young F1 will change over time. There is a transition from a short and soft puppy coat to the longer adult coat - this means they "doodle" increasingly as they mature. The easiest way to determine the coat type of a Labradoodle is to look at the fur around the face and muzzle--fur that has crimps or waves will similarly be wavy/shaggy or also curly, although it is not possible to tell which until the pup is a little older. A F1 Labradoodle has a low-shedding coat.
A F1b Labradoodle is a cross between a F1 Labradoodle and a Standard Poodle. They typically have a curlier shorter coat than the F1. Their coat will be close to hypoallergenic much like a Standard Poodle.
