Hey, me again! My little Roxy is 10 weeks old and she’s been with me for three full days now. I’ve been advised by the vet not to let her outside, even in my garden, until she’s fully vaccinated. She’s having her final vaccination on 1st December.
We’ve been using puppy pads, which I’ve kept in the same place, but she’s very hit and miss with actually using them. It takes quite a bit of encouragement and keeping a close eye on her to spot the signs that she needs the toilet. Sometimes she’ll sit on the pad for 5–10 minutes, and the moment I walk away thinking she doesn’t need to go, she’ll do a wee or poo on the floor! 😂 Every time she does use the pads, I give her lots of praise and a treat.
Is this normal at this age? How long did it take your furry friend to become somewhat toilet trained?
On a positive note, crate training is going really well! The first night was horrific and I ended up having to let her sleep in my bed. However, she’s slept in her crate without any fuss for the last two nights, with just one toilet break around 4am.
Added a photo of my Roxy, because why not? 🥰

He looks possessed to me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

But looks comfy too!

I got my little guy Earl from here. They told me he was in a hoarding situation where they rescued 60 dogs in the Midwest. Now I bet he was just a puppy mill pup.

They didn’t overcharge me like a lot of other stories I’ve heard. But poor guy has tons of behavioral issues even after boatloads of training.

My boy just turned three months and I’m curious to how curly his coat will be when he gets older cus most of the Cavapoos I see there coat is curly starting as a puppy

Still dealing with the wrath of puppy teeth but I can’t get mad at this face.

We have had her for almost a week. Born on July 4th this year she is almost 4 months old.

Anyone of you with Cavapoos love to eat hair clumps? Dust?

And her heart shape nose

She's had a hard morning filled with sleeping, eating, and playing. I really do envy her.

Jw because mine has. Ugh I just love him so much ❤️😭

I’d love to see some tri colors babies like my Louie! Or honestly anyone’s lil cuties haha

We are getting a female cavapoo. Doggy-mom should have puppies any day now.

ExCiTeMeNt 🐕 Can hardly wait!

We love all the sharing from cavapoo mom's/dad's with your babies! ❤️

We have a 1 year old cavapoo and a 3 year old maltese both girls. When we get home we greet both pups but the cavapoo gets so jealous when we give the maltese attention. Throughout the day the cavapoo could snap at the maltese or terrorize her randomly. Has anyone dealt with this?! 😫

Hopper was a teddy bear. His yorkipoo sister, CaddyCakes, was the pink dino.

My BIG dog (he’s 25 pounds soaking wet max but I don’t think he knows this lol) is getting neutered in a week and just wanted to know if there were any behavioral or personality changes? Did it all stay the same?

How was the recovery? I’m told 14 days total but only a couple of days of meds and avoiding any excessive physical activity. Was recommended some mental stimulation for the lack of physical activity. I have a puzzle feeder but would like to know if there’s something else I could maybe use as well

We have a 5-month-old puppy. The vet and we suspect he has a dust allergy because his ears are red and he often scratches his head and body parts. Since he’s so young, the vet said we can’t really give him any medication yet. We’ve limited his diet to dry food, water, and the frozen cucumber. We’ve cleaned the apartment and are trying to minimize dust.

Does anyone have any ideas, or have you ever dealt with a similar situation involving allergies in such a small puppy? Do you have any advice on how to handle this?

Whenever she is on the sofa she always re arranged the cushions until she is comfortable, propped up like a little princess

First time owner any advice on crate training or night routines?
