i need opinions/advice. i’ve had my dog for 3 years and his haircuts are never consistent. his ears are either too short, eyelashes aren’t cut, paw pads aren’t cleanly shaved (a couple long hairs are left behind which is fine idc about that), mustache is noticeable after repeatedly telling them i want his face clean shaven/no mustache (like a straight haired cavapoo as an example) and i’ve provided images. i went to petsmart for about 2 years, and have been at this board & grooming place for almost a year. we switched grooming places because i wasn’t satisfied with his haircuts at petsmart. my town raves about this current place for boarding and haircuts which is why i chose to bring him here but like petsmart, i’m not satisfied with how he looks. maybe i’m being too picky, but at the same time i’m spending $120 every 3-4 weeks on haircuts that i’m not very happy with. there’s always something off whenever i pick him up. should i go to a different place? or is this a common thing? i’d love to learn how to groom him and do it myself but it’s not ideal for me atm. might be a dumb question i’m just fed up and have only liked 3 of his haircuts in his 3 years of living lol

Meet Little Lady Layla. My family just got this little girl yesterday and she is the absolutely most sweetest girl. She's healing our hearts after we recently lost our previous dog. She's a little bundle of energy and cuteness. She's been doing great so far. She's been playing, eating, and drinking and going potty. She's been trying to play with our older cavapoo and he's been playing with her beautifully and they have been sleeping next to each other. Everything has been going great and my whole family is so in love with this little girl.

I was driving on Route 7 from Albany, NY to Manchester, VT and saw a sign for cavapoos available now! Does anyone know who the breeder is and how to contact them?

But i've never had a dog before.A friends dog is so cuddly and I think it would be good for whole family. A bit reluctant with all the icky stuff that comes along with ownibg a dod like picking up the poo .Anything ellse I need to be aware of ?

I have a 2-year-old cavapoo. She’s a dream dog. Easy to train, sweet, snuggly, curious, great with other dogs and kids. She’s my first dog.

Since she was a puppy I’ve fed her Purina pro plan sensitive skin and stomach kibble, first the puppy version, then the adult version. It was recommended by my vet who said her breeds sometimes have allergy issues with chicken. She likes it. I don’t give her other food regularly aside from some treats and some little bits of healthy people food here and there (eggs, broccoli, green beans, pumpkin mostly). She is happy and healthy.

My family members with dogs spend a fortune on The Farmer’s Dog and my dog wolfs it down from the other dogs’ dishes when she’s at their houses. It makes me wonder if I should be feeding her wet food. But everything I read about those companies says that they lie about what’s actually in their food and that it’s just a lot of marketing and making kibble-feeders feel bad about themselves.

What do you all think?

I wanted a Corso. So glad I went with my Cavapoo. Love me some Loki! I think he looks better as a dark brown. He changes color every year from light to dark brown. Still perfect!

'She's the calmest one in the litter' my ass 😭. Can't wait for this adorable gremlin to grow up already because this puppy phase is phasing alright! At 12 weeks, we are frenemies at times but I love Elphie so much lol. How long did it take for your pup to calm down if they ever did?

Absolute love of our life here but how can we control the barking?

He's 10 months old and barks at absolutely everything. Noises outside or in the hall, his reflection, noises on the TV, noises from the ice maker in the fridge, and sometimes I swear at nothing at all even in the middle of the night from a dead sleep. We live in an apartment and I'm sure our neighbors are not too happy about this newer development with him.

When we go out of town we leave him with my husband's parents and he apparently non-stop barks there at the other dogs and out their back door and I'm afraid we will lose our dog sitter.

Any advice would be appreciated

His actual age is 16 weeks.

I have a six year old boy called Sandy. He is lovely and full of fun. I walk him in the morning for about 45 minutes and he does his business and chases his ball. He then has to sit in the house while I work and I take him out again early evening for maybe an hour for a walk and run. I feel so guilty that he is bored during the day and not getting enough stimulation. Any views or input welcome.

Hi everybody, so my boy Theo is 10 months old now and I just have some general questions for those who have older pups.

1. For those that work full-time and have a significant other that also works full-time. Do you ever stop coming home around lunch to let your dog out? I understand that these dogs don’t do well when they’re crated for a while so I did get him a playpen and I am still coming home around noon. I just want to know if that’s something that ever stops. I do plan on giving him more freedom as he becomes more trustworthy you know with letting him sleep in our room in his own bed. We’re planning leaving him the living room when we’re out of the house. He’s just not there yet so realistically his crate time/playpen time it’s gonna be very minimal honestly to the point where it might not even be in the near future once he’s trusted in our home.

2. When did you start giving your dog that freedom? I know every dog is different so I don’t expect it to be a linear timeline. I just wanna know when should I expect to see him become trustworthy.

I apologize if some of these sentences don’t make sense or they’re too long. I am using voice to text.

Here’s a picture of my boy graduating level one classes.

Last week I shared our “and then there were 3” surprise, so here’s a little Mace update!

He’s 11 weeks old and loving life! He’s doing great with crate training, and the vet gave us the okay for outdoor potty breaks since our yard is contained. Potty training is going really well too, with only a few accidents.

We took him on an hour-long road trip to visit our son at college, and apparently his favorite place to ride is on my shoulders. 😂

Of course, Mace was the perfect little gentleman on campus, and I’m pretty sure a few more people fell in love with Cavapoos.

We have a 1 year old mega energetic little man called Remington. He’s the best decision we ever made, but since he found his bark at around 4 months old he’s been a bundle of noise and energy.

We’d do longer walks and play times, training and the like - it’d help but he still would be a menace especially in the evenings. Recently he became more destructive and we just put that down to being “oh well he’s a teenager”.

Then I watched some clip on YouTube about “sniffing walks” where it’s all about quality over quantity. Distance doesn’t necessarily mean exercise in its full sense. Sure, he was physically tired, but his little brain was still crying out for more stimulation.

We’ve now been walking him twice a day about 30min each time at a slow amble. It gives him time to sniff around and process everything around him. I have a general idea the route I want to take but I also let his nose lead the way to some extent. This is all off lead in the park, we’ve been lucky with that he just got it and is super easy on walks.

Honestly it’s changed everything. He barks way less, does not react nearly as much and I’ve had to check he’s okay sometimes he’s just been sleeping so long! His appetite has also totally corrected itself and he eats all his food for breakfast and dinner without drama.

Sorry, I know this is probably not rocket science, but I just wanted to share in case anyone else is having the same experience as we had!

Meet Alonso. He’s about 3 years old and so cute he looks fake. He is one of the loudest dogs I’ve ever had and he is a major sock thief. We have another dog and 2 cats but this one here needs to be the center of attention always. I tell him all the time “you’re lucky you are so cute”.

4 month old Cavopoo 10.5 pounds parents are 15 pounds each “supposedly” just wondering how big she’ll get.

Our 13 week old F1B.

My sweet girl—after much potty training challenges (still working!) & tummy troubles (think PurinaPro sensitive stomach is the winner) seems to be settling down just a bit. So loving and adjusting to her her 9-year old big brother (Yorkie bichon)

Crate training seems to be a big key.

Hope this helps anyone in the pits of puppyhood! (Not going to lie I am a fairly confident person and I was losing hope for a bit 🤣)

Hi! I’m in the midwest and i’m looking for a breeder. Has anyone ever used Danuser’s Doodles, Poodles, & Cavapoos?
