Labradoodle Creator Regrets Making the Mixed Breed

One of the biggest regrets Wally Conron has, he says, is creating the labradoodle. Because of the first mixed bred dog he made 30 years ago, many people are following the trend and interbreeding their dogs.

But his biggest issue with it is that people are doing it now for very different reasons from when he first bred the labradoodle. His original intention was to fulfill the request of a blind lady who wanted to have a guide dog that wouldn't trigger her husband's allergies. Now, dogs are being crossbred mostly for fashion purposes.

I feel bad because they are fun dogs but 100% neurotic if left alone even for a short period of time. My friends Dog would wreck where ever she was left if a human wasn't there even for a short time. They lived in a condo and even though the dog was house trained she'd crap the living room floor if no one was there.
