{mosimage} A lot of people know Labrador as a housing dog, as kind as Golden Retriever. In the other side, Poodle known as a funny dog with a fur covered and makes it like a doll. In 1989, an Australian breeder, Wally Conron first delivered a Labradoodle. He succeeds to cross the Labrador retriever with Standard Poodle. His aim was to combine the Poodles' low-shed coat with the gentleness and trainability of the Labrador, in order to provide a guide dog for the blind with less shedding, and hence more suitable for people with allergies to fur and dander. Today, Labradoodles are often used as Guide, Assistance and Therapy dogs. |

Summary: Small animal veterinarians work in the health care of companion animals. In order to become a veterinarian one must love being around animals and not mind the many years of school that is needed. Small animal vets deal mainly with cats, dogs, rabbits, and birds. After having years of experience many vets usually decide to open up their own practice where they are able to treat their patients and do research. |

In order for your veterinarian to maintain your pet’s good health, it is important for you to schedule regular checkups and practice preventive care at home.
