Blessed Day Doodles

F1 doodles are 50% retriever and 50% poodle. They tend to have more of the lab features with wispy-wavy hair. Their coat is maintenance-free other than an occasional brushing. They have low to moderate shedding which varies from puppy to puppy. F2 doodles are the puppies of an F1 doodle bred to an F1 doodle. Their coats are less predictable than the F1’s because and F1 is 50% retriever and 50% poodle. Some F2 puppies in a litter will receive more retriever genes than poodle genes from their parents, others more poodle genes than retriever genes, and some with equal retriever and poodle genes like their parents. Thus, you have only a few puppies that resemble their parents and most that resemble a retriever or a poodle. F1B doodles are 75% poodle and 25% retriever. They are non-shedding and more hypoallergenic than the F1. Their coat is very wavy to curly like that of a poodle. They do require more brushing and grooming to maintain their curlier coat. Multigen doodles are the pups produced from an F1B bred to F1B which is an F3. We breed F3’s to F1B’s or great generations to continue to produce consistently low shed coats and reduce the risk of dander than comes with breeding closer to the retriever lines. Australian labradoodles are the puppies of an F1B, or greater, bred to an Australian labradoodle. They are non-shedding like the F1B and do require more frequent brushing and grooming depending on how long you prefer to keep their coat.

No – no breed of dog is allergy-friendly to everyone. Those who have previously purchased puppies from us and have an allergy to dander have found a higher tolerance to the labradoodle breed because it is low to non-shedding and dander-free. We do not sell puppies on a trial basis, so you must consider what you/your family will do if an allergy issue arises after the purchase of the puppy. We might be able to take the puppy back pending available space, but no refund will be offered. If we are not able to take the puppy back, we will help you to rehome it, and you are required to provide us with the name of the new owner for our records (it’s stated in our contract/guarantee). Remember, our puppies are never to be placed in a shelter or rescue organization!!! (You will sign your name to it before puppy pick up/delivery.) Please consider all of this prior to purchasing a puppy – it is a lifetime commitment! We are more than happy to provide you with references of our doodles near you whose owners would be willing to let you meet them to see how your allergies do around them.
