The man who created the first labradoodle - a cross between a labrador and a poodle - is warning about the craze for cross-breeding dogs.

Wally Conron bred the labradoodle in the late 1980s when he was the breeding manager for the Royal Guide Dog Association of Australia. He wanted to breed a dog that wouldn't shed its hair, for a blind woman whose husband had allergies.

Speaking to 鲍鱼tv Radio 5 Live鈥檚 Anna Foster, he explained why he鈥檚 now worried that he started a trend that could have dangerous consequences.
