Great to speak your opinions and ideas. When the black and tan German Shepherd Dogs became white GSDs you had to wonder what happened here? We are the "masters of our dog's universe" that's a huge responsibility!

    Since Labradoodles and Goldendoodles are new and developing breeds, we need to try and do the best job possible to move the breeds forward in a positive manner. For me, this not only means selecting... more

    • Personal preference — Linda - Canadian Doodle Puppies, Mon Jul 16 07:09
      Although I agree 100% that any colour/markings (or anything) that is associated with health issues should not be bred in, I am going to have to respectfully agree to disagree on the colours like... more

    • Happy birthday!!! — Heather @ Blueberry Cottage, Sat Jul 14 10:53
      Great post...I love all the colors but it is very hard to find those that stay their original colors and not fade/dilute.

    • One thing about you I always admired — Joyce of Annabelle Doodles, Fri Jul 13 07:40
      is your personal point of view. :+) It does not matter if I agee or not, I think it is very important to have one and express it maturely. Walking on eggs and tip-toeing through the tulips trying not ... more
    • For me personally I like the rich straight colours — Aschwin|Happy Doodles, Fri Jul 13 04:16
      like chocolate, red and black. But only the darkest of them, so without the fading. I read somewhere that there is a dillute gene, which could be maybe tested ? Is there a DNA test to determine... more

      If we didn't have our own opinions and preferences all of the dogs would look the same! To each his/her own really! I personally like the color variation and have issues with other things going on in ... more
    • It really wasn't long ago that — Darice, Thu Jul 12 21:48
      parti was also viewed this same way because it was different and I am sure that there are those breeders that are still not huge fans. Obviously, I love the parti but I also think that diversity is... more
      • I totally agree Darice.....I LOVE — Marci Tango Wool, Thu Jul 12 22:17
        variation, and if i want to keep colors strong in a certain line, then i am more particular and do not breed in grey and silver, and i have my lines that are like an artists canvas and colors and... more
    • Re: In my opinion — Hilary @Greenwoodpark Labradoodl, Thu Jul 12 21:43
      Well, my particular opinion aside, I don't see how we can say these colors are to be avoided since they are all common colors and patterns of the parent breeds of the ALD. I had a phantom cocker... more

      • Happy Birthday Dixie! — marypat@nestlewoodlabradoodles, Fri Jul 13 05:13
        Thanks for starting an interesting thread. I enjoy reading everyone's opinions. Personally, I like the more saturated colors over the dilute and will breed towards that. However, I don't have a... more
