How to Identify a Labbe

The Labbe is a designer dog and a mixed breed, crossing the Labrador Retriever with the Beagle, and they may also be referred to as Beagadors, Labeagles or Labbe Retrievers. It is likely that this mixed breed originated at some point during the 1990s in the United States. [1] Because the Labbe is a mixed breed rather than a purebred dog, identifying one can be difficult. Fortunately, this wikiHow will provide you with some advice for figuring out whether a dog is a Labbe.

Method 1
Method 1 of 3:

Structure

  1. Labbes are usually somewhere between 13 to 22 inches (33 to 56 cm) in height, and they typically weigh anywhere from 25 to 65 pounds (11 to 29 kg). [2]
  2. Labbes typically have a face that is more narrow, similar to that of a Beagle. They also usually have a muzzle that is long and jowls that are fairly loose. [3]

  3. Labbes usually have ears that are wider, similar to a Beagle's ears. They are also typically longer than a Labrador Retriever's ears, and they usually sit in a snug manner, touching the dog's head. [4]
  4. Labbes typically have dark brown-colored eyes that appear gentle, though they should not be excessively large. [5]
  5. Labbes usually have a long tail that is moderately thick. At the end of the dog's tail, you may also notice a kink. [6]
  6. Labbes typically have parallel limbs and a body that is muscled well, and they are also usually proportioned well. [7]

Coat

  1. While a Labbe may have a yellow, brown or black-colored coat (the three colors that a Labrador Retriever can be [8] ) they may also have a bi-colored or tri-colored coat similar to a Beagle. [9]
  2. Labbes usually have a coat that feels smooth in texture. [10]
  3. Labbes typically have a coat that is short in length. [11]

Temperament

  1. Labbes usually have a lot of energy and enjoy playing. They particularly like retrieving or scent tracking-related games. [12]
  2. Labbes typically are friendly, excitable dogs who like greeting people. Therefore, they do not typically make a good watchdog. [13]
  3. Labbes are usually eager to please, intelligent dogs. However, they are also known to have a difficult time continually paying attention, so this is something to keep in mind when they are being trained. [14]
  4. Because the Labbe is loyal, it is important that they are socialized well from an early age, or they may end up barking a lot and becoming aggressive and/or territorial. [15]
  5. As mentioned earlier, Labbes are typically known to be energetic. Therefore, they will likely need a good amount of exercise. Not providing this can mean the dog will get themselves into trouble. [16]
