That's disgusting. x_x

 

Plus making her pay!

I hate back yard breeders.

 

Geeez! And people actually pay that? I don't get what you would want to mix a great dog like a poodle with a lab for anyway. If I wanted a spaz I would just get a lab. The mixes generally shed so that's not a factor and If I just liked the look Id get a german wirehair. Anyway, JMO.

 

JMO, too.

 

I was thinking about the labradoodle thing again the other day too, cos I had one in at work again as well. This dog is totally gorgeous and loveable, the family got him from his previous home as a youngster, but not a little pup. The family has a daughter allergic to dogs, and of course labradoodles are non-allergenic just like poodles; I mean, we all know that, right? "They don't shed", that's why they're bred to poodles in the first place, right?

This is a QUICK brush, on one side, before I really got stuck into him (and the hair was everywhere so didn't make a very accurate pic later!) Oh the family loves him now, and they really are a wonderful family, even though daughter is allergic, they're NOT the sorta people that'll toss him out, the just have to get him groomed fairly regularly, and he has a lovely big warm kennel outside that he sleeps in (comes inside with the family during the day though too).


Isn't it funny how just cos it's half poodle, it must therefore have a poodle coat. Ummmm, what about the half lab bit, that sheds like a snowfall!! lol

 

That's the weirdest looking 'labradoodle' i've seen so far!

 

yup, who knows what sort of breeding he actually has! The fact he was being sold as a labradoodle for the non-shedding thing says it all though. *sigh*

 

He looks like a flat coated retriever to me!

 

I totally agree FlyingDuster, why get a cross breed non allergenic when you get a purebreed non allergenic for half the price! :wacko:

 

holy cow.... how did she convience her 80 yr old mother to give her 2,500 bucks for a puppy in the first place?? That's what really jumps out at me, I cannot imagine!

 

some people have no respect

 

Maybe the breeder wants her inheritance sooner than later, we know she's money hungry. Seriously, an 80 year old and any large puppy, especially w/ Lab in it, is asking for serious injury. The poor woman is going to end up w/ broken hip, torn shoulder or who knows what. My neighbor is in her 40s and has Minears disease, which causes vertigo. Hubby's Labs managed to give her a concusion and she's never been the same.

 

poor lady !!

 

Forget about the price...Forget about the stupidity of it all..

What kind of monster charges their lonely mother that kind of cash for a pet? Horrible person! That who!

 

If I were someone who new this lady I would call in the police and get them to check that this woman isnt not being elder abused. Seriously it could be a lot more then the dog. She is being stole from without a doubt in my mind and needs outside help that she apperently can't see and her daughter is taking her for a ride

 

I completely agree Mandy!

It bother me when people mistreat elderly loving parent who deserve respect

 

It's shameful!
