Labradoodles inherit joint risk from both sides — Labradors are prone to hip and elbow dysplasia, and Standard Poodles carry a hip dysplasia predisposition too. In practice, the relevant question is the individual dog's size and symptoms rather than trying to calculate which breed's genetics 'won'. How big is he and what are the specific rear leg signs?
He's a standard Labradoodle, about 30kg. Both rear legs stiffen after lying down. He also hesitates before jumping into the car.

30kg, bilateral rear stiffness, car-jump hesitation — that's a straightforward moderate joint presentation for an 8-year-old large crossbreed. Start him on YuMOVE Senior. The bilateral rear pattern in a Labrador-cross almost always has a hip involvement element, and the Senior formula's green-lipped mussel anti-inflammatory and hyaluronic acid for joint lubrication are directly relevant to what you're seeing. Use the car-jump hesitation as your progress marker — it's a reliable and consistent daily test. Give it 6–8 weeks and if the hesitation is meaningfully reduced, you've found the right level.
