Labradoodle coats are divided into three categories: wool, fleece, or hair. Australian Labradoodles predominantly have fleece coats that are straight or wavy only. Wool and hair coats do not apply other than to early generation Labradoodles.

Labradoodle coats are divided into three categories: wool, fleece, or hair. Australian Labradoodles predominantly have fleece coats that are straight or wavy only. Wool and hair coats do not apply other than to early generation Labradoodles.
Labradoodles' coat colors include chocolate, cafe, parchment, cream, gold, apricot, red, black, silver, chalk, lavender, and blue. Coat patterns can be solid, white abstract markings, parti, phantom, or tri-coloured. In general, Labradoodles may have any coat-color a poodle can have.

Australian Labradoodles differ from Labradoodles in general, in that they may also have other breeds in their ancestry. English and American cocker spaniel × poodle crosses (i.e. cockapoos). Two Irish water spaniels and soft-coated Wheaten terriers were used in some Australian Labradoodle lines. Curly coated retriever were used too, but these lines did not work out and were no longer used for breeding.
Currently, Australian Labradoodle breeding lines may only have 3 breeds infused: poodles, Labrador retrievers, and spaniels. Infusions occur with early generation breedings. Multigeneration breedings do not use any breed other than Australian Labradoodle to Australian Labradoodle. Australian Labradoodles also generally have poodles and Labradors in their pedigrees that come from European lines, whereas other Labradoodle lines tend to rely heavily on American stock. Thus the frequent misnomer of “American” Labradoodle when referring generically to a Labradoodle.
Labradoodle History & Background
Labradoodle VS Australian Labradoodle
Labradoodle VS Australian Labradoodle
Labradoodles were originally bred in Australia around 1989 in an attempt to provide a guide dog for a blind woman in Hawaii whose husband had allergies. When the Labrador, a standard guide dog breed, was bred with a Standard Poodle, whose coat tends not to elicit an allergic reaction, the Labradoodle was born.
Genetics play a huge role

When the Labrador, a standard guide dog breed, was bred with a Standard Poodle, whose coat tends not to elicit an allergic reaction, the Labradoodle was born.
Genetics play a huge role in the look, size and temperament of the Labradoodle. Widespread “backyard” breeding has detoured careful selection of desirable traits that more careful breeders propagate.
It’s hard to go wrong with a Labradoodle, and as such the Labradoodle has become one of the more popular poodle crosses for lovers of large breeds.

Testimonials
Love our Copper from UpNorth Doodles. They have an amazing line of dogs that make the perfect pet. Copper is the kindest, most gentle, handsome goof ball ever. I was referred to UpNorth Doodles (and have referred them to others) and will stick to her dogs for our future dogs, I know I am getting a great line of healthy dogs. They truly care, don’t over breed and love their dogs like family.
Thank you Upnorth Doodles for giving me the best doodle! You were so caring for your furbabies and I thank you for passing along some helpful knowledge and tips to a new doodle owner. You take your time finding the right home and family for each pup and I thank you again for choosing me. I live in Montana now but would have no second thought of flying back to Alaska for another one.

Our experience getting our pup with Patrice was awesome! She was so helpful during the whole process, great updates and flexible scheduling to visit the fur babies! She is a great teacher for first-time puppy parents! Her doggy family is super fun and we LOVE our Archie!

We love our UpNorth doodles so much, we have three in the family: Stella and Ruby live with us, and Sprig lives with extended family. Having relationships with three UpNorth dogs (and even more with those owned by friends), The dogs we brought home from UpNorth have also been free of any major health problems. They are smart, loyal, and so much fun. Thank you, for helping us find our best buddies
I have two labradoodles fom UpNorth labradoodles, Kinley 6, and Luna 6 months. They are both so smart, sweet, and playful. You can’t go wrong with a labradoodle - especially with one from one of Patrice’s litters. The puppies are raised in a great environment and Patrice is there if you have any questions along the way as your doodle grows up. Thank you Patrice!
