Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Poodle (Standard) / Mixed. Meet Ralphie! He is an approximately 6 year old, male, Lab/Poodle mix who weighs approximately 57 lbs. He is currently in a foster home and being surrendered because his owner is no longer able to care for him. He is a sweet boy who appears to be friendly with female dogs and loves to play! He has a higher prey drive and would not do well in a home with small dogs or cats. His previous owner says he is house trained, and leash trained and eager to please. Ralphie is neutered, microchipped, current on his rabies vaccination, booster to date and heartworm negative. We do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program. They are all kept in foster homes until they are adopted. Therefore, if you are interested in adopting from LHS, please complete an online application at legacyhumanesociety/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ and we will contact you asap about the status of your application.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Labradoodle is a mix between the Labrador Retriever and the Poodle. Both breeds are excellent for children and families. The Labradoodle became known in 1988, when Australian breeder Wally Conron crossed the Labrador Retriever and Standard Poodle at the Royal Guide Dogs Associations of Australia in Victoria. Conron's aim was to combine the low-shedding coat of the Poodle with the gentleness and trainability of the Labrador, and to provide a guide dog suitable for people with allergies to fur and dander. Sultan, a dog from this litter, displayed all the qualities Conron was seeking and worked as a guide dog for a woman in Hawaii for ten years. Although Guide Dogs Victoria no longer breed Labradoodles, they are bred by other guide and assistance dog organizations in Australia and other places. The Association for the Blind of Western Australia has introduced Labradoodles into their training program, and their first, Jonnie, graduated in November 2010. Labradoodles are now widely used around the world as guide, assistance, and therapy dogs as well as being popular family dogs. The Norwegian Royal Crown Prince and Princess own a Labradoodle.
