The Lab is perfect the way he is, why experiment? What if the genes do not go along with the breeders plans..what if the Lab/poodle mix takes on the coat characteristic's of the Lab and personnality of the Poodle? Screw with Mother Nature and she will screw you right back.

I would have to agree with Pat here - and I LOVED the mother nature comment - There are THOUSANDS of dogs sitting in rescues/pounds/shelters in that weight range.....your mom could SAVE a life and find a great dog in the process....for a minimal cost

These sites popping up all over the internet is scary - there is such a huge jump in the number of sites selling puppies over the net....When you see multiple breeds - it's just a RED FLAG ....granted all these sites aren't bad.... but it is a red flag all the same.
