What is an Australian Labradoodle?
Not to be confused with the Aussie-Doodle, Labradoodle, Double Doodle, or any other recently named combination. The Australian Labradoodle is a true breed — and the result of decades of careful, intentional work.
The Australian Labradoodle was developed in Australia more than thirty years ago — selectively crafted from six breeds, each chosen for specific inherited traits, in pursuit of a reliable, allergy-friendly service dog.
The careful combination and infusion of these individually cherished breeds resulted in a highly coveted, soft, non-oily coat, a reliable and flexible temperament, and great health for a happy, long life. These are not flash-in-the-pan crosses — they are companion animals bred with intuition and adaptability across multiple generations.
While most doodle mixes have been bred for one to three generations, the long list of desirable traits held by the Australian Labradoodle has been responsibly maintained and improved upon for many more.
Breed standards are upheld by the World Australian Labradoodle Association (WALA) and the American Australian Labradoodle Association (AALA). Members adhere to codes of ethics and undergo annual accreditation reviews.

How big is an Australian Labradoodle?
Australian Labradoodles come in a range of sizes, and weight alone can be misleading thanks to their fluffy coat — an Australian Labradoodle can look as big as a Labrador Retriever but weigh considerably less. It's all the floof.
