Cross Breeds..

Im am probably being really silly here but am I right in saying cross breeds cannot be KC reg?
I only ask because whilst I was surfing I noticed Labradoodles advertised as KC reg?!?

Thanks! I started doubting myself when reading it! I guess they might mean that the parents are KC reg, but It reads as though the pups are! They want £900 per pup ! Thats insane!

I'm sure there was something in the past year or so, where the KC said they are no going to be registering Labradoodles.

It says in the advert they are special ones that don't moult? It actually uses the word 'Special'! To be honest I know nothing about them at all just the advert intrigued me!

They aren't 'special'.
I feel sorry for the people who believe the advert and buy the dogs at that price!

Labradoors moult, Poodles don't.
Cross them, and it's *possible* that some of the pups might not moult.
You can't guarentee all of them won't, or even any of them!

I think in this day and age Price is irrelevant. However, they may be registered with the KC under the activities register.
Maybe you need to drop an e-mail to the KC and local trading standards and tell them about this advert.

I always understood that was the whole point of this cross, to breed dogs that could be trained as guide dogs for blind people who are allergic to moulting breeds (mum worked for Guide dogs for years) so if most of these dogs don't moult. how come these ones are so special??? i know we are only going by what it say's in the advert so we'll never get the full story but still £900 seems a bit steep (& some).
