Labradoodles

  

  My dog  is a large brown labradoodle, her name  is Coco. Labradoodles are a mixed breed of labs and poodles. They are very neat, like poodles, and very playful, like labs. They were first bred in Australia. I love taking her out for walks and going out to play with her. It is so much fun because she runs so fast and is full of energy.

Food

You don't have to, but it is recommended to feed labradoodles 1 (in human years) and under, one meal a day. When they are older, you can feed them 2 meals, once in the morning once in the afternoon. You can feed them leftovers sometimes, but you should put the leftovers in its dish or bowl. If you feed it straight from the table, it is likely that your dog will beg. Always make sure that your labradoodles’ water bowl is full. (carrots are not recommended, they might throw up)  The weight of your labradoodle should be 50-65 lbs.

                                                                                                    

                                                     

                                                                                                                           

           

Exercise and play

You should walk your labradoodle twice a day, once around 8:00am-9:00am. then around 6:00pm-10:00pm. But you can really do it  whenever you want. To keep your labradoodle happy, play with it once a day a let it run free in an  area that it can not run out of. It will have a lot of fun and love it if you do that. This looks a lot like my labradoodle.

                                                                                

                   

Grooming and Haircuts

You need to properly  groom your dog to keep it clean and well kept. You should brush  him or her every 1 or 2 weeks to keep the knots and matted parts out, and give it a bath once a month so their hair is shiny and clean. An  advantage of having a labradoodle than some other dogs is that they have hair so they don't shed and you won't have to clean your house all the time.  My dad needs sheep shears to cut my dogs hair because it is very thick. Some labradoodles don't have such thick hair.

Labradoodles are fun and very playful animals. You should always pay attention to them and they will love you. Play with them once in a while and make sure they are happy.  In my opinion they would be a great dog to have for a family.
