Have you just been watching "Top gear"?

Is this what you mean?

I think what they had was a Bedlington terrier

[Poglet]

yes jake, have just watched top gear but saw them ages ago on richard and judy and really would like one, it is a labradoodle cos they said at the beginning but can see resemblance to bedlington. just reminded me i would like one whilst i was also logged in here so thought it was worth a shot!

They're lovely dogs aren't they? There's a website that might help here

hope you find one.

Overpriced mongrels,,,basically,yeah lovely,my daughter wants one,but at end of the day,that is all they are!!!

[blue eyes ;)]

go on "the kennel club" website and get the number of the secretary and they will tell you your nearest breeder.hope this helps.

Sorry, but the Kenel Club is the last place you will find a breeder of mongrel labradoodles! You do not know which type of coat or temperament you are going to get,and as both breeds have health problems you will probably not get one with all the health checks done.

By all means get a crossbreed or mongrel, but don't try to disguise it as a 'designer' breed by giving it a fancy name. And please don't pay a fortune for it - that will only encourage the puppy farmers to breed more.

Cross breeding dogs is a very good idea as it increases the gean pool so it helps eliminate problems that pure bread dogs have. Lab cross Collie have been around for years without any health problems, so why not lab cross poodle. I love em

I'm not against cross-breeding,i have one but crossing them and selling them at silly prices is disgusting,they are basically 'mongrels'with a designer name thats the problem!!

[lankeela]

Crossbreeding does not eliminate health problems! If both parents carry the gene for a recessive condition then the puppies will either be affected or carriers of the condition. I have a breed that suffers from an eye condition, which is also inherited in Jack Russells. Therefore if I 'crossed' my breed with a Jack Russell, it could inherit the very same condition.
