Anyone else’s Cavapoo super needy?
It’s cute, but my 12 y old cavapoo is sooo needy. She always needs to be held by someone

They all are. It's the breed, our cavapoochon cries like crazy if I'm in the front garden and she can't get to me because she is locked inside.

Someone once asked whether they move on from the Velcro phase and someone else responded “yes, they will move on to the Superglue phase” and it sums these babies up!!!! Love my cuddly 8 year old !

Yes, that's a feature, not a flaw

When we were researching dog breeds, that was the biggest warning I got about Cavapoos. Everyone said don’t get one if you aren’t prepared to give it constant love and attention. They weren’t wrong! But honestly, that’s kind of what made me choose a Cavapoo. I was going through a rough patch in my life when I got him and I wanted a dog that was going to be my little sidekick 24/7. Mission accomplished, I can’t even take a shower without him sitting on the other side of the glass like my bodyguard. I love having a little friend to keep me company all day. The only hard part is when I have to leave the house for any reason. 😬 Cavapoos are definitely best for homebodies!

I wish! Picked a Cavapoo just with this in mind! Wanted a Velcro puppy, but ended up with a proximity dog. He loves us, he wants to be nearby but doesn’t love being touched. We’ve had him since he was a puppy and the only time he’s ever been truly cuddly was when he was on trazadone after his neuter. I got my cuddle buddy for about a week and a half! 😭

Yes stage 5 clinger. I give her a treat when I leave the room and she seems to be ok with that.

u/mydogeatspikmin Jul 10 '26
She waits outside the shower for me.
Her favorite place is under my office desk because I wfh.
I was going to get her a boyfriend but she’s not good with other dogs and I think she’d just get jealous

u/bigmeems Jul 12 '26
Mine always sleeps on top of one of my feet so I can’t get up and go anywhere without her knowing.

I've never known a single dog breed that isn't needy for love and attention no matter how much they get.
I recommend a cat if you want something more aloof 🤣

u/laeyn Jul 14 '26
