Are health problems common in Labradoodles?
Like other floppy eared dogs, Labradoodles have a tendency to get ear infections. To prevent this, keep hair out of the ear if possible, clean them regularly with a cotton swab. It is important for breeders to continue health testing their breeding stock so as to maintain the well bred Labradoodles current vibrant health status. Labradoodles tend to be healthier than most breeds, but they are not immune to hip dysplasia or other health related diseases. At Noble Vestal Labradoodles we perform regular hip checks on all our breeding stock dogs and will make our breeding selections based on the results of these tests. Please note that all animals can develop health issues no matter what the breed.
