Australian Labradoodle Breeders Serving Tampa, FL
Australian Labradoodles in Tampa, FL
A Labradoodle might seem like a straightforward cross between a Labrador and a Poodle, but it’s not as simple as that! In fact, there are various types of Labradoodles, each with its own unique characteristics. It’s crucial to recognize these differences to fully understand what sets each type apart.
Dog lovers everywhere have fallen for the charm of both the Labradoodle and Australian Labradoodle, breeds that combine the best of Labrador Retrievers and Poodles with their own special twists.
The journey of the Labradoodle began in the 1980s, aiming to create the perfect guide dog for allergy sufferers. This led to a breed that mixes the smarts and friendliness of Labradors with the Poodle’s allergy-friendly coat. However, Labradoodles come in a wide array of looks and personalities, from curly to
straight coats, and not all of them are as hypoallergenic as intended.
On the other hand, the Australian Labradoodle story started in the 1990s and involved carefully mixing additional breeds like the Irish Water Spaniel and the English Cocker Spaniel. The goal was to craft an even better version of the breed. This effort resulted in dogs with consistent coat types, wonderful personalities, and genuinely hypoallergenic, non-shedding coats in various sizes.
But what really makes the Australian Labradoodle stand out is not just how they look. Thanks to thoughtful breeding, these dogs aren’t only smart; they’re also incredibly intuitive, making them perfect family pets and excellent in roles such as therapy dogs. Their consistent and lovable nature makes them distinct from their Labradoodle cousins.
While the Labradoodle is known for its lively spirit, the Australian Labradoodle wins hearts with its balanced temperament, making it a favorite among families. They learn quickly, are gentle with kids, and although they’re calm inside, they love getting out for some fun.

About Tampa, FL
Tampa is a city on the Gulf Coast of the state of Florida. The city’s borders include the north shore of Tampa Bay and the east shore of Old Tampa Bay. Tampa is the largest city in the Tampa Bay area and the seat of Hillsborough County. With an estimated population of 398,173 in 2022, Tampa is the 49th most populous city in the country and the 3rd most populous city in Florida after Jacksonville and Miami.
Tampa was founded as a military center during the 19th century with the establishment of Fort Brooke. The cigar industry was also brought to the city by Vincente Martinez Ybor, after whom Ybor City is named. Tampa was reincorporated as a city in 1887 following the Civil War. Tampa’s economy is driven by tourism, health care, finance, insurance, technology, construction, and the maritime industry. The bay’s port is the largest in the state, responsible for over $15 billion in economic impact.
During the first few decades of the 20th century, the cigar-making industry was the backbone of Tampa’s economy. The factories in Ybor City and West Tampa made an enormous number of cigars—in the peak year of 1929, over 500 million cigars were hand-rolled in the city.
During the 1950s and 1960s, Tampa saw record-setting population growth that has not been seen since. This growth spurred the expansion of the city’s highways and bridges, bringing thousands into the city and creating opportunities for Tampa business owners. It was during this time period that two of the most popular tourist attractions in the area were developed – Busch Gardens and Lowry Park. Many of the well-known institutions that play an important role in the economic development of the city were also established during this time period. The University of South Florida was established in North Tampa in 1956 and opened for students in September 1960.
Tampa has a diverse culinary scene, from small cafes and bakeries to bistros and farm-to-table restaurants. The food of Tampa has a history of Cuban, Spanish, Floribbean and Italian cuisines. There are also many Colombian, Puerto Rican, Vietnamese, and barbecue restaurants. Seafood is very popular in Tampa, and Greek cuisine is prominent in the area, especially around Tarpon Springs. Food trucks are popular, and the area holds the record for the world’s largest food truck rally.
