So labradoodles.
They’re cute af.
God why do I say these things on camera.
Either way, people consider them designer dogs, they’re known to be hypo allergenic
meaning they don’t shed or not often anyway, and seem to be great dogs.
But it seems everything we know about them is a total lie.
Really, they have a lot of hereditary problems, or they’re absolutely insane.
Of course, there’s the possibility of both.
The original creator of this cross breed, Wally Conron said the creation was his biggest
life regret, and he doesn’t understand why people are still breeding them.
In fact, he considers the cross bread his version of Frankenstein.
Jeez.
When speaking with ABC, Conron said “I opened a Pandora's box.
I released a Frankenstein.
People are just breeding for the money.
Unscrupulous breeders are crossing poodles with inappropriate dogs simply so they can
say they were the first to do it.”
So what was the reasoning for Wally’s creation in the first place?
Well, there’s actually a very good reason behind it.
He was a dog breeder and in the 80’s, received a letter in the mail from a blind woman living
in Hawaii, who’s husband was allergic to long haired dogs.
She needed a guide dog that wouldn’t drive her husbands allergies insane, so Wally did
his research into trying to find the perfect crossbreed.
After 3 years of work, in 1989, it came to him.
“A dog with the working ability of the Labrador and the coat of the poodle”
So he brought over Brandy, a female Labrador, to his boss’ house, to meet Harley, a big
white fluffy poodle.
The two dogs split a bottle of wine, listened to some Marvin Gaye and the next thing we
knew, viola, 3 Labradoodle puppies were birthed.
The blind woman’s husband was not allergic to one of the dogs, named Sultan.
After hearing the good news, Conron stated that the labradoodles are non allergenic dogs.
He explained “I realized what I’d done within a matter of days and I went to our
big boss at the time and I said to him ‘look I’ve created a monster, we need to do something
about it to control it.
We need to put a patent on the name to stop people getting on the bandwagon.”
The biggest concern for Conron, was that the parents of the litter needed to be healthy,
in order to produce the healthiest pups.
He claims when he see other labradoodles, he thinks to himself “‘Has it got hip
dysplasia?
Has it got elbow problems?
Has it got any other problems I can see.
I find that the majority are either crazy or have a hereditary problem.
But I do see some damn nice labradoodles that are steady just like I bred, but they are
few and far between.”
While working at Guide Dogs Victoria, Conron bred 31 labradoodles, with majority becoming
guide dogs.
However, the creation as sparked people to try breeding poodles with every breed imaginable,
and Cornon feels he’s solely responsible.
“About two year ago I had a phone call from a chap saying to me ‘I want you to know
I’ve bred the first roodle,’ a rottweiller crossed with a standard poodle.
And I thought to myself ‘this is what I’ve created.”
But it’s also known that pure bred dogs seem to have tons of problems as well.
I mean, I had a golden retriever for 14 years of my life, and it had awful hip dysplasia.
When the same breed has offspring, it’s a form of mutant in a sense.
A good example in humans, more specifically those that come from an Ashkenazi jewish background,
is the Bracca gene.
Won’t get too into it, but pretty much, if two people with the Bracca gene have children,
they’re likely to have the gene in their dna as well, and it gives you a much higher
risk of developing cancer.
Now as always I want to know your thoughts on labradoodles.
Do you like them?
I love all dogs, but at the same time, this origin story changes a lot.
What once started as a breed for a purpose has now become a breed that is literally just
made because its cute.
Crazy stuff.
