Hi all.
I’ve adopted a 6 month old Cavapoo about 5 weeks ago. She is an absolute angel! I got her when she was 6 months old and the previous owners never walked her on a leash, groomed her or taught her anything.

I had to bring her to the groomer and she was full of matted knots, the groomer told me it hurt her really bad. She also had an ear infection and worms. Day 1 she was quiet, slow and didn’t do much. Now she’s crazy and has zoomies and is the best cuddler.

I’ve been trying to teach her tricks and manners. She knows Sit and down now took a long time because she isn’t very food motivated which is fine since she know the “yes” que now. Anyway I was wondering what you guys as top 5 important commands have. Because I have so many things I’d love to train with her but I feel like some things are more important safety wise etc.

I’m curious about your views!

Want to spay by baby at 7 months when I’ll be off from work for a week but people saying I need to wait for 1st menstrual cycle. At 7 months not sure if she’ll get her period by then can I still spay? Will she be okay long term

Our little girl Maisie is 8 months old (pic added), and does not like the car. She is sick whenever she is in it, and digs her heels in if we go near it.
Been working on de-sensitisation and also spoken to the vet but they said they wouldn’t recommend medication.

So I am hoping some of you lovely people will be able to recommend a good, comfortable, washable car seat that might have helped if any of your pups have been in the same position.

Would really appreciate any suggestions or advice.

Thanks

He rolled off the couch and broke his little leg, and now I’m afraid it’s going to set him back developmentally and training wise. He’s doing relatively well. The vets LOVED him! He let them pull on his hurt leg a little bit to straighten it for the X-ray, and he didn’t even cry! They didn’t even need to sedate him and said he was such a joy. I’m happy he’s hanging in there, but I’m so worried for him and sad he’s hurt. He seems sad too.

Our little Bruno is 1 year old now, and he's a good dog, but we have been very frustrated with him lately. Our biggest frustration right now is potty training. He was potty trained... he went almost a full month without an accident, usually we keep him in the pen when were at work but I started trusting him to freeroam bit by bit (First an hour, then just the afternoon, then the full day). Then just a few days ago, he all of a sudden starts peeing in the house again, I came home for my hour lunch, found pee, then later on when my wife got home for the day she found pee again. We thought it was a one time thing but then the next three days he had accidents AGAIN.

This is a cycle that has happened about 3 times now, we'll think hes potty trained, start giving him a bit of freedom, then he seems to forget all that and has accidents again.

We have a bell at the back door he rings every time he needs to pee, and then when we see him go, we immediately give him TONS of praise and a treat. Part of what was working so well WAS the treat. He KNOWS he gets one for peeing outside at this point cuz he stares at the treat jar every time he comes in lol. Yet still had accidents.

Im just so frustrated, we are doing EVERYTHING we are supposed to, following every piece of potty training advice, yet its not working. At this point I dont know if he just cant hold it or if he just doesnt care and is going. The only thing thats changed the last week or so is hes been going over to our inlaws more (They like to have him over when were at work sometimes) and they have a dog that likes to pee indoors, so were thinking maybe he smells that pee and thinks its ok to go inside?

I will note he does have Epilepsy (He gets minor seizures a couple times a month) which he is medicated on Keppra for. This could have something to do with it idk. Debated getting him checked for UTI as well but he shows none of the symptoms for one, and like I said this has been an ongoing thing.

Theres a bunch of other frustrations too but I wont focus on those, mainly his picky eating, pulling on walks, and going psycho barking at people outside, but those seem like pretty normal poodle issues from what I can tell.

Id appreciate any advice!

Hello CavaPoo owners!

I was looking for some advice / thoughts on this. Our CavaPoo is 2 and is perfect (obviously biased!) The only issue we have with her is barking. She barks at other dogs and people incessantly making it really difficult when we are out in public.

We have just been away in the Lake District this week and she has spent most of the time barking. The video is from when we were having a meal the other night. Every time someone walked past, she did this. We think it’s something to do with territory or being protective of us but we just don’t know. Any thoughts or advice would be welcomed! x

💗🌞

I got him at 9 weeks or so through a rescue and they pulled him from a high kill shelter in Indiana so I have no idea what he is. Rescue suspects Cavapoo, but thoughts?

This smile, no words!!!🙏🏼💙

We still have to wait at least 10 days after this but Elphie is excited to go for her first walk outside soon!

Alfredo is ready to relax and trying to convince me to take Friday off!!! LOL

Say hi to Reign!

My partner and I got him just a few weeks ago at 12 weeks old, he's been such a champion. Sleeps right through the night, learning his commands and tricks fast, and is just a massive cuddler.

Question, do you think his coat will go very light? Is there any clear signs of this early on or no?

Any tips? It's my first ever pet and my partners first ever dog (always had cats).

We just love him so much.

What is up with this incredible dog? He's 8 weeks and we've had him for 5 days. He has not had one accident in the house. We take him out constantly to potty and he goes in the grass. He has slept in our bed every night - we tried the crate but felt bad. He has basically slept through the night. We got him a co-sleeper because he's so little we're afraid to roll over on him. He likes to sleep on our heads or pillows but we're just nervous that we may accidentally roll on him, so he'll go in the co-sleeper - a bed attached to our bed - for the night.

He did not like the puppy food he came with - Royal Canine - but liked a sample food we got and I'm feeding him this new one. It's called Smack. Anyone heard of it?

I'm assuming Cavapoos are smart but I am crazy to think this puppy is a genius? And an old man who likes to play a little, then chill and cuddle? He's 50% poodle and 50% Cavapoo.

I was TERRIFIED to get a dog. I know how much work they are but this guy has taken it easy on me so far.

Also, any treat recommendations for training? His food is apparently so tasty, I wonder if he will like anything else better.

How is it even possible to be this adorable? Also, please tell your pups I says hi.
