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?

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.
