[QUOTE="RedPony, post: 1502165, member: 420953"] No, we don't recognize them as a breed now, and yes, you missed something. They still describe the parents of their puppies as Labradors (a breed recognized by the AKC) and Poodles (also a breed recognized by the AKC). But whenever you put together two different breeds, you get a mutt, mongrel, cross breed mixed breed etc. These people who advertised on that website are very full of themselves. They talk about breeding to the standards of the "Labradoodle" - - THERE ARE NOT STANDARDS, except maybe in their own minds. They make it all look very reputable and responsible - but you should not associate either of those words with these folks. They are selling mutts for big money, period! Don't be fooled. Unfortunately, many people are and will be. They have a first class website, and that's it! ADD: Here's a quote from the CKC website under the FAQ section: "Does Continental Kennel Club register mixed breed dogs, and if so, why? Yes, Continental Kennel Club does register mixed breed canines. Owning a mixed breed dog is very common, and CKC offers services for these dog owners.
