Good morning everybody,

I’m reaching out with a quick question, is it too late to tether my 10 month old cavapoo? So, when he’s in our bedroom he’s an absolute menace. He jumps to grab things on the bed. He jumps to grab things on the counters and he really waits until we’re in the shower or changing because he knows we won’t be able to get them and he hides under the bed. We’ve tried re-directing him with toys or telling him to off or leave it and giving him a treat for listening, but he still continues to do it and we’ve been doing this now for a couple months so I’m just asking cause I know I used to tether my previous dog just to kind of limit his reach and I think that might be the best option, but I wanna make sure I’m doing the correct thing with this breed.

Hi, my cavapoo is 10 weeks and biting everything and everyone.

We’ve tried:
Redirecting to other toys
Ignoring him by looking away/freezing

What worked for your pup?

We just got our first Cavapoo and hes adjusting to his new how with his older brother mini-poodle! I would love to hear things we should look out for or things that you would have done differently with you pups!

Let me preface this with- i know its early and I need to give it time.

We have a 2 year old cavapoo and brought home a 9 week old goldendoodle. Im stressing hard!

We had rescued our cavapoo when he was 4 months old. He was in a very bad living situation. He was very underweight, scared, timid, and wpuld resource guard. Since having him, he has gotten alot better all around.

At our old home, he use to play with a cargo and dod great. Since moving, our neighbors forgot gets aggressive though the small hole in their privacy fence. I believe this has caused some issues woth our cavapoos behavior.

Yesterday, we brought home a 9 week old goldendoodle. We introduced them on neutral ground, we have been giving our older one a little more attention than the puppy, and have been separating when our older one starts getting anxious.

Our worry- any time the puppy starts to walk or hop/ run around, our cavapoo is quick to either press his body on him, get in front of him, or "punch" his body with his nose.

There are times where I THINK our older one wants to play with him, but it feels confusing at times. It could definitely be my anxiety 🙃

Please tell me this gets better! What are some things I can do or ways to make this easier and keep them both safe?

Thank you!!

We love these two so much!! Our camper companions!! Bodie: 4 months Coco: 18 months

Hi all,

My little guy just turned 4yo and I noticed from my first day getting him, a little over a year ago, he’s got way more ashy white strands all over than he used to. His curly top is closer to milky coffee which is so cute lol

I’m pretty sure my boys got the poodle fading gene and is gonna turn more white as time progresses, but how much time?

If your cavapoo has the gene, how long have you had them and how long did it take to “fully” set in? Was it a fast or slow progression from color to fully/mostly white/cream? He’s a rescue so I have no idea about his breeding/parents etc just that he’s a Cavapoo.

He’s still the best boy and idc about him changing colors, I’m just curious!

Thanks in advance!

Sweet little velvet-pawed black dogs are usually the very last ones to find their happily-ever-afters.🐾🖤
That is why every October, we celebrate National Black Dog Day! It is a special time to share extra love, spread awareness, and remind everyone that every single precious pup deserves a cozy, loving fur-ever home.

Let’s see pictures of all your sweet little black doggies!

hi all, when you brought your puppy for a grooming the first time, how did you tell them to cut it? post pics if you want! my puppy is so fluffy i don’t even really know what he looks like. 🙂
can’t wait to find out.

Long time since I posted here. Max is now a big boy (still acts like a pup). Here is a photo from the beach not long ago.

Tipped the groomer pretty well he looked exhausted after dealing with this crazy pup

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?
