Hello all,
I was just wondering at what age you can determine a labradoodle's coat type? (eg: curly, wavy, straight).
I'm hopefully having my first litter of f1s in 8weeks time (fingers crossed).
Of course I have had all the health tests done & my bitch is now two years old. I'm certainly not irresponsible!
I have experience in breeding dogs, but breeding labradoodles is a whole new venture, so any advice would be most welcome!
Also just wondering with larger breeds (I have only ever bred terriers in the past), what in your experiences have been the prime days for mating? My bitch which is a standard poodle was successfully tied on days 9 and 13. I am aware that every bitch is different, but I just wanted to get an idea on larger breeds!
Thankyou
