How to Identify a Labmaraner

The Labmaraner is a mixed breed of dog that crosses the Labrador Retriever and Weimaraner . They may also be referred to as Weimadors and are known today as a "designer dog breed". [1] It can be a challenge to identify Labmaraners, since they are not purebred dogs. Fortunately, they have several characteristics which are unique to them, and by noting what these characteristics are, this wikiHow will help you figure out whether a dog is a Labmaraner.

Method 1 of 3:

Body Structure

  1. Labmaraners are typically somewhere between 21 to 24 inches (53 to 61 cm) tall, and they usually weigh anywhere from 60 to 100 pounds (27 to 45 kg). [2]
  2. Labmaraners usually have a skull that is broad and a snout that is of a good size. [3]

  3. Labmaraners typically have drop ears, which should be going downward and reach their cheeks. [4]
  4. Labmaraners usually have eyes that are amber, brown or grey in color. [5]
  5. Labmaraners typically have a straight tail that appears cheerful, and either has the Labrador Retriever's broad base or the Weimaraner's long length. [6]
  6. Often, Labmaraners have toes which are webbed, similar to those of a Labrador Retriever. [7]
  7. Overall, Labmaraners usually are proportioned well, with a ribcage that is deep, a waist that appears tucked up, and athletic, sturdy legs. [8]

Coat

  1. Labmaraners are most often yellow, grey, brown or black in color. [9]
  2. Typically, Labmaraners have a coat that is short, though some dogs may have a coat that is of a longer length. [10]
  3. Since Labmaraners typically have a short coat, they don't usually shed a lot and will only need brushing around two or three times every week, along with a bath as needed. [11]
    • If the dog has a long coat, however, they will need to be brushed more often. [12]
  4. Overall, Labmaraners usually have a flat, glossy coat. [13]

Temperament

  1. Although some are initially stubborn (and therefore the persistent and correct training is needed), Labmaraners are known to be intelligent, trainable dogs overall. [14]
  2. Labmaraners are known to be sociable, affectionate dogs who love attention and tend to do well when they are around people. They also usually do well with children. [15]
  3. Similar to the majority of large dogs, Labmaraners typically require a good amount of exercise, through activities such as walks or hikes. [16]
  4. Labmaraners are known to potentially chase cats or other small animals, and therefore they will need to be supervised if they are around any of these animals. [17]
  5. Labmaraners are energetic, enthusiastic dogs overall who are frequently known to simply run around and just be happy. [18]
    • This energy means that this dog may become boisterous and unruly, with which patient training that involves rewards can help. [19]
