Yeah, if there's a pun in there, I'm not sure what it's supposed to be.

'Labradoodle' is the unofficial but commonly-used name for a Labrador/Standard Poodle cross. It's hardly a well-known name or breed, I'll grant you.
Zebediah:
Hm. Here I thought labradoodles were pretty common. Maybe because I pay attention to dogs and their people. But it doesn’t seem at all like an obscure joke to me.
There are also goldendoodles, Bernedoodles, and a host of other poodle mixes.

Oh, I see. Thanks!
...still think the pun is bit of a stretch.

I was made familiar with the Labradoodle breed by the sitcom 'Scrubs'. Cox used it as shorthand to describe J.D. as nervous and prone to widdling on the carpet. Also, a more personal connection to this comic, K.B. Spangler AKA Otter, who has done guest comics for QC and the webcomic A Girl and Her Fed, took care of her parent's labradoodle whom she called Filthspigot while they were abroad a number of years back.
Then again, not everyone obsessively reads the newspost at the bottom of comics/reads the author's home renovation blog.
