I think a Labradoodle is a designer mutt. No idea whether it's in the sweet spot, but the name makes me TUALBIMM.

But with allergies you can't get any old mutt puppy -- you have to get one that work with allergies. That's why they're going with a Labradoodle -- a designer mutt (Labrador/poodle cross, hence the cutsie name) that people with allergies generally can have withotu getting sick. That puts it in the sweet spot for them.
