That was the question I was asked today. I haven't talked to my friend Joyce in about 8 or 9 months. So, in the time I haven't seen her, she's decided to breed dogs. She started with her standard poodle Mitzi, and bred her to her mom's chocolate lab.
So, what she could (she showed me a picture) were 6 pretty 'labradoodles', 1 white, 4 brown, and 2 diluted-ish brown colored.
She kept a brown male and a diluted-ish brown female, (don't worry, she didn't breed them), but they're about 7 months now.
And she took in her friend's labradoodle when she moved, and wants to breed her.
The thing is, she wants to know WHY so many people think it's a bad thing. She wants to know WHY she can't make a labradoodle a proper breed.
Her goal is to breed dogs that represent what she thinks a labradoodle should look like - happy-go-lucky, intelligent, and gentle, with a curly coat, coming in the colors of white, black, brown, fawn, apricot, red, yellow, and possibly bi-color.
She doesn't believe in inbreeding, so the two sibling puppies won't be bred.
But she wants to know if she could set a standard for the labradoodle and do everything right, like the famous breeders where you might have gotten you're purebred doggie right, why some people still say it's wrong.
I didn't say anything when she went on and on about it. I just liked playing with the puppies. >.>
