You’re probably thinking to yourself, how much is this dog going to set me back? Well, cost is always a tricky subject, but in this video we are going to break down just how much investment a Labradoodle is going to take, from the buying stage, to the everyday ones. But make sure to stick around until the end of the video, as we will also share some ways that you can save some money longterm!

A Quick Overview

How much will it cost to get a Labradoodle from a breeder?
First, let’s take a second to go over the upfront cost, that is what you should expect to pay just to bring a Labradoodle home with you. If you’re going the breeder route, which many people are these days, you should be prepared to pay a pretty penny. Labradoodles are expensive at the moment based on their reputation and their popularity.

What about adopting?
Of course, if you don’t feel like buying from a breeder or the price point is just more than you can justify, there is always the adoption route. Adoption fees for a Labradoodle are much more affordable, and you are also giving a loving doodle a fresh start, which can really feel good. Labradoodles are an extremely popular dog at the moment, and really throughout the last two decades or so, and this makes them much harder to find and adopt.

What factors affect price?
If you decide to buy a Labradoodle for your home, you should be aware just what goes into the process of deciding cost. Two of the most important ones, demand and the size of the dog, we’ve already touched on, but there are a lot more that will impact the buying process for you if you go with a breeder. One is coat color and type. Since a Labradoodle is a hybrid dog, it is going to inherit traits from both the Labrador Retriever side and the poodle side.

Consistent costs: Food, Toys, and Treats.
When plotting out a budget for your Labradoodle, you should take a longview approach to things. These dogs live more than a decade, which means you are going to have to be in a stable place for at least a decade so that you can pay for what your animals needs in order to stay happy and healthy.

Grooming
Grooming is a big deal for a Labradoodle, as their coat type demands it. These are dogs that will make you wellacquainted with your groomer, and you should expect to visit them at least four times a year. You also should expect to brush your doodle once or twice a day at minimum, as otherwise their coat can get all tangled up. If this gets bad enough, it can cause matting, which will mean shaving your dog down completely in order to fix it.

Healthcare
Labradoodles, especially those that come from a quality breeder, are healthy dogs, but that does not mean they don’t need a solid veterinarian in their corner. A good vet is going to let you know whatever is going on with your doodle, as well as prepare you for issues that may be starting to form.

Training, Boarding, or Doggy Daycare
If you’re an active person, you may have to be away from home for extended periods of time, in which case it’s best not to leave your pet at home. Doggy day care or boarding is always a good option for when you can’t be present for your dog, and it may cost you up to $700 a year depending on how often you require the service.

How to cut down on costs
There are a few ways you can cut down on how much you are spending on your dog, and some of them are way easier than you would think. For grooming expenses, try out the puppy cut, where they shave your dog down instead of just trimming up their look. You may miss out on the classic doodle look, but you won’t have to pay for as many trips to the groomer.
