sounds like you have regrets

Excellent advice thank you x

A lot of this you ought to do with dogs in general, tooth brushing, grooming etc, none of my dog's liked to be left alone, I had a Collie and a Lab prior to having our Cockapoo. I really don't find any of the things you've listed as cons honestly, maybe that's because we are used to energetic, intelligent dogs.

I never had a cockapoo and I’m thinking of getting one or a poodle. Can they be obedient at walking to hill or at recall ? If trained properly, my passed beagle couldn’t do it of the lead.?

keep your day job

My toy poodle gracie been in heat she quit spoting its her first heat shes still swollen how long does it take for swollen to return to normal shes licking alot

The big problem I have with my 3 month old cockapoo is nipping and pulling at my clothes it drives me mad, any advice?

My moms just adopted a cockapoo from her friend who fostered her, she was kept at a farm and is currently extremely timid (we think she was meant to be kept for breeding but they gave up) shes super soft but this is our first “small” dog? Previously we’ve had a husky, a dalmation/lab and a staffy. My main worry is her hair care.. she has a shorter more dense coat? It reminds us of sheep wool. Our husky was stubborn and would only let us bath him once a year but after that we get the fulminator on him and that was it. Other than that its just been short hair dogs :,) i said id help with research for now as its currently early days and shes too scared to go for walks. We have a brush made for her fur but we’re unsure if its manageable at home or how often you should get them trimmed etc. for those wondering why im asking here and not google I have had multiple wires crossed on opinions so i thought asking a cockapoo owner was the best thing to do 😂

I got my first cockapoo one week ago and honestly I wish i found this breed long ago. My cockapoo is the best dog I've ever had ❤

Ty I just got a cokapooo

We just barely got a maltipoo puppy, she’s 8 weeks old. She isn’t close to her heat obviously but I’m watching to know what to expect so there’s no panic! 😄

Brilliant straightforward chat.. Pleased I’ve found this as I’m looking at buying either a toy poodle, or the cockapoo! I’ve sadly had to to terms with the loss of my toy poodle/jack russel, jackapoo, she would have been 15yrs this Dec! Sadly for me she was dis guarded 1 very cold frosty December night, she was around 9months old & she had a microchip in her, which the previous owner obviously hadn’t thought about that at the time. When they got a call from the vet, saying we’d found their puppy, they said they’d sold her on, but didn’t know who too??? Who does this?? Why would they have done this, as there’s plenty places you can take dogs nowadays! However, I had 2 StBernards at this time, but when my son told me she’d followed him home & when I opened the door to see if she was still there, she ran in & snuggled right beside my 2 huge saints… I couldn’t hand her over to the dog warden, but said I’d keep her in the house with my family & we had a long wait to see if the previous owners would want her back, but guess what! Of course they didn’t, so my family benefitted getting to know her & she gave so much joy to everyone she met.. So all those happy yrs she loved us has come to an end, leaving us all with many many happy memories.. So that was 3months ago & now it’s only my husband & myself along with Ollie our 2yr old cat.. Which I must say, even Ollie missed Lucy. But now I’m not quite ready to buy our next puppy, I’m only looking at the 2 breeds I’m trying to research & see which breed fits best with our family! I’m hoping to get Christmas & get into the new year before bringing 1 into our life… As I didn’t pick our Lucy, we were the lucky family she found that cold Dec night. All this F1,F2 & then adding a ‘B’ to the mix, was a bit of a grey area for me, however, I’m now a lot more understanding of which I’d need to go for.. So many many thanks for clearing that up for me & also your useful tips!!! 😁 So, so sorry for this long message though!!!😂😂

Thanks! I pick up my pup on Tuesday. How do you recommend to pick up a pup?

First time dog owner, completely never crossed my mind. Thank you ❤

Fun fact: cockapoos are a mix of cockaspaniel and a poodle

Excellant advice,, thank you v much,, your doggy is just so adorable x

Would a pure breed poodle be generally healthier than a f1b?

My Sweep is now 5 months old. Totally my fault for buying him, but I'm not a youngun and I'm absolutely worn out with him. Taking him up the field is a nightmare. He's on an extension lead and he gallops all the way there. He runs round and round and round and after an hour I think he's worn out. He's not! Then an hour's ball game indoors. I've been in tears wanting to re-home him which makes me more distraught because I love him. I'm in a complete dilemma whether I'm doing right by him keeping him 😢. I've had many puppies, mostly GSDs and had no problems. Sweep is a nightmare even though he was house trained in three weeks, does sit, stay, down and recall. I'm in a serious dilemma as to what to do but it's making me ill.

i already have one

How long do they stay on their periods? I have a mixed chihuahua/terrier, and she is small and the first time

Literally crying right now. You answered all of my questions & frustrations! I thought I was a bad puppy owner, or completely doing it all wrong. 😢 My puppy is 7 months old, female, who digs, barks, chews up shoes, is fussy eater, who hides when the leash comes out, bites me and is soooo cute it's unbelievable. But I had No idea it was going to be so challenging. 9:18

My cavapoo start her first heat cycle. She is 16 month old

My cockapoo barked a lot before turning 2 now she only barks when she hears someone yelling outside and doesn’t dig but she is definitely stubborn when she is in trouble or sleepy

Oh fuck off, This is so hard Btw first time dog owner four weeks is a long time working all the time, 🤷 Anyways pubs are not hard to sell properly, Anyways be proud doggies are precious

loved your content . would have been nice to have subtitles . found it a bit hard to understand your accent.

I wish all new dog owners were as insightful and real! The humping in females is really common and I’m glad you brought it up. It is usually attributed to displaying (or attempting to) dominance. She may be trying to move up in the “pack”. Be firm with stopping this behavior. If you watch dogs, they rarely allow another dog to do this. It’s not necessarily sexual, just dominance.

Dont believe everything you read online , you must have lucked out i dont know anyone that has had a problem with a cockerpoo, in fact im so impressed ive just got one.

How long do they stay in heat and swollen? Where I don't have to worry a out getting pregnant ????

I have owned a cockapoo for 3 years and this video is BS. My cockapoo has zero allergies. Perfect family dog and companion, great with children, easily trained, hypoallergenic (but no dog is 100% hypoallergenic) and this breed has very few cons. We are on top of his grooming which is essential for this breed, so if you are not ready to spend and groom often, then this breed is not for you.

“Raising a dog” 😂🤣😂. You’re not a parent. You are a dog owner. Not trying to be mean, but c’mon

Thank you this helps alot.

I have a female shi-tzu and she's now 9 days in to her first heat. She is now 9 month old and have been bleeding for 9 days. But now it start to be less bleeding. She has been very klingy and little more careful around other dogs she don't know. She has bin eating a lot, always begging for more food and treats. Also her vulva is quite swollen and looks like it is a little painful in the beginning. We are planning to spay her when she is 3 month out of heat. This is my first puppy ( we have to had 2 other dogs before but we first get them when they were 4 & 6 years old) So this video was very helpful to see that our dog it's quite normal in her behavior. Thanks for this informative video ❤

Hi, I am 8 week old Cockapoo & need every single advice I can get 😂 this was very helpful x

Thank you. Needed this advice 👍

Dogs rule lady

Need to be groomed ocassionaly,fed and loved what more is there?

My boy will eat everything tried a grape yday he liked it apples salad just anything but he has a problem around food i got him from a rescue he is 4 so no knowing what he was treated like but you carnt walk near his food if it's a treat he will go off to the bedroom if i go in bedroom he looks so savage growling at me protecting the treat I just back away telling him it's his noone will take it away so I'm working on that !

Thank you this gave me so much more understanding of what my Baby Bella Havanese is going through, she’s so clingy, she wants to go outside more than usual , and she definitely lost her appetite… I try to make sure she gets her water intake .any more tips will help thank you

I have a 20 month old and when she barks it’s very loud and frightening but she’s just so excited. Every morning we have snuggles and it just melts my heart. We love the forest and woods. She’s super friendly and loves cashing rabbits but won’t harm a fly. Amazes me with everything she does.

I've had female dogs all my life and actually.The very first sign is usually then peeing a lot in different areas trying to mark their territory. My current pup went into heat last week😂 I noticed her getting very clingy to me and wanting to just pee everywhere. You're going to see that before you see any sign of bleeding or swollen vulva

I am going to say this with the nicest intention behind but - I think it’s important to love and let her personality shine too. My puppy barked a lot in the first 2 months, right now I let her chose everything that’s possible and won’t harm me others or her, and with that choice comes emotional regulation and she basically never barks. Only if she is frustrated or really feels like she isn’t being heard. I let her dig too. She actually doesn’t do it as much, of course it will make her dirty but it’s the best emotional regulation for her. I also have a picky eater and the update you wrote works - I believe it’s my own fault she turned picky. I also love her stubbornness and sassiness. I however notice the more freedom she gets to chose and be herself the more she will listen in the moments when I need her to listen to me. Like especially on the walks … giving my puppy more choices has been the best thing I have learned about having a dog and it has truly changed our relationship 🙏🏻🥰

Excellent advice, thank you!

thank you very much!!!! my dog luna Ausie doodle jus had her first heat.

We have had 5 cockerpoos, all raised from puppies. Not a single one of them ever dug up anything. We own a farm, the dogs were out alot, they were not diggers. They are VERY smart, train quickly, and extremely loyal.

My partner and I are getting our first puppy a cockapoo on May 3rd, he will be 12 weeks old on May 12th, his breeder is having him fully vaccinated and microchipped, and bringing him to us, and providing a puppy hamper too, his breeder is my hairdresser! We've met him and his 3 siblings and mummy Dottie. Both his parents are cockapoo's. His first injection was today, and he weighs 4.2kg. He is chocolate brown, with a cream goaty on his chin and strip going down his belly, with cream on his underside paws. We have named him Bodhi, and can't wait for him to come home. He is going to change our lives and we are so excited about it ❤❤❤

Great info

Once/twice a year i go thru the most my boy doesn’t eat or sleep, bc of my girl, the first 4-5 days are cool but the rest of the 13 days im not sleeping bc my boy doesn’t stop crying for her🫠

Hi. I have a 13 weeks old cockapoo and she is already a digger. My cocker spaniel was a digger, she lived to 12 years old. I have no advice except go with the flow. Think of them as yard traps for intruders. Your dog is protecting you, LOL. It is part of the dogs personality. You will miss the holes when your beautiful Millie has passed. I am now happy to see holes in my yard again. Have a nice day.

Thank you!!

This was brilliant and just the information I needed and have been looking for, thank you!
