7 Reasons You SHOULD NOT Get a Cavapoo

[@bhampatty1]

The best video I've seen about cavapoos because no one points out the reasons that a cavapoo might not be right for me. All I ever see or hear or read is how perfect they are. The biggest drawback for me is the ongoing cost of grooming. 😟 Maybe I could teach myself to groom her/him.

[@nessevans5224]

And here I am thinking this is the worst video I've seen. As a mommy to a cavopoo for 13 years, this is ridiculous. Yes, my baby girl needed to be groomed every 2 months, but she didn't lose her hair all over the house and make a mess on my clothes every day. I'd say it was worth the £35 every 2 months to have someone clip her nails and bath her and make her all clean. They would come in a van and take less than 1 hour. She was healthy and energetic. She never barked at other dogs. He was a lap dog and my little stalker - followed me everywhere. She has the kindest, most beautiful heart and the personality to boot. She was clever and cute. Never in my life have I known a pup like her. They are the best

My dog is left alone whiles I go to work and lies down and is fine. Super lovable, and loyal. Never throws up, never has diarrhea. He eats the healthy hill diet, never had a problem switching his brands. Groom him myself and he just lies down whiles I cut his hair. Excellent being potty trained. Got trained within 2 months of getting him as a puppy. Never barks!!! He is not vocal at all. He loves long walks and exploring. Only got my beautiful baby for $1000 and did the DNA test and he is exactly half cavalier and poodle. Love him

Depends on the owner too. We don't let ours bark or eat people food. They are HIGHLY trainable and eager to please. We keep his hair medium length because he definitely matts otherwise. He's potty trained but we did have an issue with this. We kept him on leash in the house till it was fixed. He's like a teddy bear. We did pay too much. No regrets. And we pay for good food since kibble, cucumbers and lettuce ribs are about all he gets. Well, squash for diarrhea and bones for a treat. We needed him. He makes me happy every day.

[@r.s6187]

We have a cavapoo and I can't recommend the breed enough! I remember watching this exact video a year ago when we were debating getting our little guy. He's been AMAZING! He's so smart! Incredibly easy to train. We did weekly puppy training sessions and he caught on to everything without much reinforcement at home. He's fully potty trained, knows a few commands like sit, paw, come, and lay down. He's incredibly loving and sweet and docile. Very very mild mannered and wants to please! We could've probably trained him using positive praise alone. He LOVES when we cheer and clap for him. He wags his tail and shakes his little butt :) People have called him a teddy bear, which we agree with! He goes to daycare and they adore him there. Same at the groomer! He's fine being handled, you can sit there and hold his paw like you're holding hands and he's fine lol. He's great with kids and even babies. He met a one month old and the parents were so impressed; said their own dogs weren't even that good. Our lil guy gets along with people and other dogs alike. And he's only a little over a year old. I feel like I'm bragging when I talk about him because I only have positive things to say about our experience and dog. He's a velcro dog and loves laps but is capable of being independent. Sometimes he'll just go off and play by himself or sit in another room. But mostly he loves being with the family! He's the best dog I've ever met let alone owned. If you are reading this and considering a cavapoo, DO IT! You will not regret it.

You’re crazy dude, this video is a joke. Cavapoos are amazing dogs. Mine is 10 years old. Incredibly smart and loving. They only have separation anxiety when they’re young. They grow out of it after a year or so. I have literally never had a problem with a sensitive stomach. Our cavapoo was potty trained within a couple weeks. This video just isn’t true at all.

[@patelnirajkumar1]

Yes I agree with you. I have recently bought a Cavoodle (same) and he is so amazing. Potty trained within a week or 2 and minor accident once or twice after but that is all. No stomach upset, etc. He is only 4 months old now, and I wfh so ok. but I do have to start going to work since last two weeks and once a day per week only and leave him for about 6 hours and come back home by 2. Of couse he cry first, then play and sleep. I leave relaxing music on for him and he roams free in the living area, bedrooms are closed, and he is trained not to chew shoes or unwanted stuff and he doesn't. Which is blessing, well my hard work plus he is a good boy. I got crate but I do not force put him in crate for more then 15 minutes or max 30 mins if we are doing major house cleaning or mopping the floor etc. But he is so amazing, and this video is really a joke.

Yes he suffers from separation anxiety but he understands that I have to work and will be back at night and doesn't destroy things to get attention. Super intelligent dog I have to say.

[@corinnelsmith]

my cavapoo, Milo, is a few of the things you mentioned, but not all. Sensitive stomach (allergic to poultry and can only eat fresh, we have a subscription to Farmer's Dog) he has to be groomed every 3-4 weeks with daiily brushing and he still gets matted, and he has severe separation anxiety (CBD oil for dogs has helped, but luckily i work from home and bring him most places w/ me, and have parents down the street who take him when i can't) yet he is the best, sweetest, most lovable, cutest, sweet baby i have ever had. He is really the best dog. I have had a pitbull, a chocolate lab, a rottweiler, a husky, a toy poodle, an english bulldog, and a yorkie throughout my life w/ my parents and then when i became an adult, and none of them held a candle to my cavapoo. He really is the best breed we have ever had. Easy going, sweet, and so cute. He is a teddy bear, its like actually having a teddy bear!

Sensitive stomach, yes, definitely! I have been trying to get good kibbles for him. 3. Grooming issue. Not so much for us. Since my dog is more cavalier than poodle 4. Toilet training, yes it takes tome to get him toilet trained. 5. Barking problem. So far, my cavoodle doesn't bark too much. But I notice as he getting older, he barks more. 6. Exercising requirement. Two walks a day are sufficient. 7. Expensive. Yes, for sure. We spent 5k for our baby. But he worth it! Can't imagine life without him.

[@trudy285]

I searched the pup rescues for seven years to find a dog that was relatively small and considered "hypoallergenic". After giving up, I ended up traveling several hundred miles and paid about a grand. By the time she was about a year old, l made plans to build her a large courtyard and adopt another pup for her. But l didn't necessarily want to pay that much again for the adoption fee. Soon after she turned two, l found what we believe is a cavapoo in the local pound. We have had her for about four months now. She is about six months younger than her older sister. The cavapoo is definitely a mellow dog compared to her older sister that is havanese/ coton de tulear mix. Both are adorable and making the addition to our family was one of the best things l have ever done in my life. The cavapoo has learned about ringing the bells on the door, yet she seldom uses it. She will come to me and either give me an excited wiggle dance that prompts conversation, or she will give me an insistent paw! Setting two meal times and not giving in to a third, has definitely helped with housebreaking. Picking up the food dishes within thirty minutes after served, has helped a lot too. No more grazing all day with hopes that mom is cooking for us again!! 😂 Since they have each other, they are a comfort to each other when they are alone in the house. So separation anxiety is not an issue for us. But l also make sure that four hours is the longest they have ever been left alone and they do fine. But if the duration is longer, like overnight, they have a great puppy hotel they have to go to. The spa days as l call them, usually can go two to three months. Because since they are in the courtyard for running and exercise, l keep their collars off to avoid matting. When we walk out to the lake trails, they have harnesses on and leash. Until we get far enough away from the parking lot to let them run free "on the trail". The sensitive stomach issue has only presented itself if l allowed a pup cup serving size of ice cream. Now on the occasion it's just a lick of ice cream with the tiny biscuit the restaurant supplies. The humane society fee for adopting this cavapoo was less than half for her older sister mixed breed as a two month old puppy when l adopted her. As far as the barking goes, she is still kind of new to our family, so many changes about certain things are inevitable. Her barking has slowly increased over time as she has been getting more comfortable in her new home. But the barking mostly has been during play with her sister. So now I'm trying to teach them both about "inside and outside voices!" 🤣Sounds nuts l know, but sometimes it actually works! Persistence right?! 😁 My take away from this video about cavapoo pups, is that these are definitely facts being presented. But if you have your heart set on having one, be sure to have a good plan in place for everything before the possible difficulties even begin to show up. Brightest Blessings to whomever chooses to read this! ☺️✌️❤️🦋🙏

One of my relatives recently had to have her cavapoo euthanised because it started constantly attacking her other dog and her husband. It was about 10 years old and had always had anxiety/possession/excessive barking issues but just in the last 18 or so months it’s anxiety and aggression suddenly got dramatically worse. I thought I’d share this as this is the only cavapoo I’ve encountered and it’s behaviour was a huge contrast to what the majority are describing for this breed.

It was hard when she was a puppy and crying constantly, but within a few months I had a dog who I could leave home alone. Also Kong toys for when you leave are great. put them in the pen / crate before you leave so they really want to go into the area and then they're really happy they got to the treat they're less upset that you're gone

I have 2 that are sisters. One is more poodle like then the other. She is more independent. The other is more like a CKC. She is so gentle and loving. Neither one barks much. They like to be with me, but they don't suffer from separation anxiety. I groom both of them but also once in a while I take them to a pro. Even their coats are different. One is really curly and the other one's coat is mostly wavey. They are bonded and in some ways are alike but in others they are different. So, I can't assign certain characteristics to them, except they are both very sweet and loveable. I don't know how anyone can say they will be one way or another. When I got my cavapoos I was going to purchase one for $100, but they were the only 2 left and I got both for the $100. The parents were on site. I guess I'm lucky because I had a lady give me a full-blooded Yorkie pup that I wanted to get for my sister's birthday.

[@Brigit-l2o]

I haven’t had a cavapoo. But the generalization of doodles have not been true in my experience. I’ve had 2 schnoodles at different times and neither had barking, potty training nor sensitive stomach issues. Grooming is a consideration, yes. But I think the other items are individualized per personality, training, and early socialization. But agreed all dog owners need to be prepared for potential difficulties and make sure they plan for committing the time to work through possible challenges.

[@BW022]

I must be luck with our cavapoo. 1. He's was absolutely fine along for half-days until COVID when he got used to me at home. Still, he's good for half-days if we need it. 2. Our vet quickly gave our trick to this -- feed before bed and in the morning and he's good as gold if you don't feed him too much table scraps. 3. Grooming is $50 every four months. Fine. You'll be spending a lot of money on the dog -- food, vets, day care for trips, etc. 4. Potty. We had maybe three accidents when he was 14 weeks and then he was fine using a mat with some wood chips until maybe 4 months at which he was perfect going outside. Good breeder. 5. He doesn't bark unless he sees a bird. Even then, it's shrill but short. 6. Exercise. That's a bonus for us -- we need it too. Ball and field (or beach) and we're good if we don't want longer walks. 7. Expensive. We got him for under $1,500. Considering it's only around $100/year, depending how long he lives, that type of cost isn't that bad. Other costs (which apply to all dogs) add up more over time.

My dog is fine to be left alone all she does is sleep She is only a year old and she is also a toy so she is tiny and won’t grow any bigger lol … thanks for pinning my comment

[@annebryant8926]

My Rosie was potty trained very easily. I agree about the barking I wouldn’t change her though. Soooo loving and attentive

[@zionvlogz8846]

I got two cavapoos they are not that well behaved but they are so good at peeing on the pee pad and they are very protective and take care of each other they are inseparable and they do cry and whine whenever we leave them by the self but I love them

[@HelenBellen123]

1. Don't like to be left alone. 2. Sensitive stomachs 3. Grooming requirements 4. Could take longer to be house-trained 5. Bark more than most dogs 6. Exercise requirements 7. Can be expensive to buy and then to get groomed

[@helenasimpson3056]

My little girl is nearly 8 now and she is fab. Very affectionate, doesn't bark much, and as I'm only out for any length of time, one day per week so she doesn't have to spend too much time alone, she also has a border terrier 'big brother' to play with. She does however sleep on her back and snores like a little piggie! No sensitive tummy, and does need grooming every 6 weeks. Also I didn't like the term cavapoo so I call her a 'Kindle' she s utterly adorable and so wonderfully naughty!!💗💗💗

[@Poddizle]

I have one and all these points are true but mine have zero stomach issues and does not bark at all.

[@Katiewebber-xm5em]

I have 2 cavapoos. Yes they do cost a lot to groom. depends on the coat but my straight hair cava gets groomed every 2 months but my curly hair cava is every 6 weeks. I used to pay £40 each They can bark a lot but so do many other dogs. One of mine does seem to throw up a lot more then the other but it’s not an issue. They do love a walk and one of my cavapoos is obsessed with playing with his ball They can have separation anxiety yes. But with training this can be helped I would say this video is fair. But they are very easy dogs and very lovable and cuddly. Great with my 2 year old toddler. The grooming is the biggest issue but I have started to do it myself following KZbin The thing to be aware of is you have no idea how your cavapoo puppy will be once he is an adult. One of mine is more like a poodle and the other is more like a cavalier. They look very different and act very different. You need to make sure you know about F1 and F1B types so you have more of an idea how they could be.

[@skuzzles69]

True true. I have a 3 yr old. I haven't met anyone that is obsessed with balls. Mine is soo obsessed with balls!! I'd say every day at some point I have to take the balls away and " put in closet " we have a golden Retriever and GoldenDoodle as well. No one else goes crazy like Millie. She can get to the point where she shakes and just barks for you to throw it. How do you deal with it?

[@Landon1sAbigFan.MrBeas7]

I have one he is sweet he loves me and does good when I have to leave the house.

[@javac2650]

One week toilet trained to bells to go out. Sleeps in crate overnight 10 hours no issues. Cries for 2 minutes if we go out, and then just sleeps. Doesn't bark at all so far, and stomach seems fine...... he's just a puppy still but so far this list is just rubbish

[@mspeaches351]

how does the bell work to toilet train and how long are you away from home?

[@tanyasmith9823]

Same as mine. They are really good.

[@BW-sm4wu]

my Cavapoo literally barks once a week. it's the best dog:)))

[@DanielGahan-s4h]

There may be 7 reasons NOT to get a cavapoo, but there are about a million reason TO GET a cavapoo. Our cavapoo just turned 3. We have figured out how to make the sensitive stomach and grooming and separation anxiety non-issues. The barking is an asset. He could win a watchdog competition. Best dog ever.

[@carolepitts6385]

Ears terrible due to canal angle - use Pro pouch clean with lint inside. 5k walk minimum - mine has excellent tummy …. Doesn’t bark other than the door the best dog I have ever had. So loyal. Remember they are not a handbag they are here 12/15 years make every day count take them for walks in all sorts of places make their life count not just a silly walk around the block

[@Kat-pm7nl]

Mine is fine in the crate and had no anxiety. I also have a walker on the few days I go in the office.

I have a Cavapoo and he is the most smart and sweet puppy ever. I don't get this video!

How’d you do it?

We did too.

7 Reason why you shouldn't watch this crap!!

[@DogsNowChannel]

No!!! you have to watch!

[@davemc3823]

@@DogsNowChannel Saying that you "SHOULD NOT " is a bit over the top! Every dog breed has its faults, by saying what you've said makes the Cavapoo sound like they shouldn't be touched at all which is a load of bull! I own one and she is awesome, absolutely no problems at all!!!

[@Kijahni]

I raw feed mine. He never throws up. He never poops when he shouldn't. And it's OK if it's an hour or two late. I don't think this is true of every dog. I brought him home at 12 weeks and he has never had an accident. It was never a problem to potty train him.

[@kimpine1195]

The backyard breeding supporters are strong in these comments

[@r.s6187]

Some shelters, especially ones specializing in small dogs, have a lot of qualifications to adopt. I appreciate everything rescues/shelters do and they should ensure a dog goes to a safe home. But by making people jump through hoops to adopt, they cause people to support breeders because the process is easier. Some shelters need to make dogs easier to adopt. We tried to adopt from a small dog rescue and they wanted a vet reference, 3 nonfamilial references, and our work employers' information. They had a very long, detailed app. Then, they also required a home visit and to use their vet even though we have our own. I also scoured local shelters and continue to and a lot also have so many requirements, especially regarding their smaller dogs. Some said don't bother to apply if the dog can't sleep in the bed or would be crate trained. Or if you won't be home during the day (most people work outside the home). A lot required a fenced yard, which we have luckily, but many people don't. Other shelters that are less strict with their dogs don't have small dogs. Our local shelters are all big breeds like pitbulls and rottweilers. The most overcrowded shelter in our area posted they had an influx of small dogs and I went literally 12 hours later and all of the small dogs were going to rescue and unavaliable. My point is, adopting can be difficult. Especially if you have size/allergy restrictions. We have dog allergies and a small townhouse yard. We can't get just any dog. We bought our first from a breeder and I've never met a better dog. We wanted to adopt our second, but it's been a rough process. And we have a fenced yard, references, and I am home all day during the summer (teacher). If shelters have these extensive qualifications, a lot of people will turn to breeders.

[@ElianeLamarche]

Once I went to a pet store and I almost got a cavapoo but then I found a cockalier that I perfer more so I bought the cockalier instead.

[@ptnpharmd]

Our baby picked up on potty training real quick, and yes, she barks !

[@starlaminde8436]

Yeah I still have one lol I never really leave since I’m retired so it works for us. I don’t like the sensitive stomach issue but so far haven’t had this injustice feel bad for them.

[@silvenxenia]

Every dog video: do NOT get this breed because they shouldn’t be left alone for long hours. Everyone needs to work to be able to afford any sort of dog bruh and most of us have 9-5 jobs 💀

[@simplyxvioletOfficialYT]

It also depends on if it’s more of a poodle or a cavalier spaniel if I’m correct

[@Lulu-oi9ue]

I had a chihuahua as I’m sure that it’s going to be easier having a cavapoo.

[@DogsNowChannel]

Good point

[@Yay_sutton]

We LOVE our Cavapoo!!! Best dog ever!

[@user-lr5cx1ni4r]

Yes to all of this. My cavapoo is 8 months old. She is so so sweet, affectionate loving. She loves everyone which I am thrilled with. My last fur baby was a Bichon and she was sweet and loving but didn't like to snuggle and didn't like kids or men. My Cavapoo has a very sensitive stomach. I groom my own dog. She is very stubborn on potty training and she ruined my hard wood floors. She barks a god bit. One thing you didn't mention is they love to dig and chew. She tore a massive hole in my couch while I was in the kitchen and she was in the den. I was cleaning up breakfast dishes and she was chewing the couch. She has chew toys, chew bones, a kong, etc. She is an escape artist. If she every gets out of the house, it takes the whole neighborhood to catch her. She's extremely fast. As much as I love her, I wouldn't have gotten a cavapoo if I'd known how destructive they are. I had a tall puppy gate to keep her in one room but she can jump super high and I couldn't keep her in it. This dog is not good for the elderly. They need an active family.

[@arianarubi]

My cavapoo was destructive as a puppy BUT cavapoos are also extremely trainable and with lots of house training (I did it on my own at home watching KZbin videos, specifically lots of Zak George lol) she has learned that the only things she can destroy are her toys and nothing else. Cavapoos are so so smart, with lots of training and patience, they can be wonderful 👍🏽

[@angussmith3009]

my cavapoo never once chewed anything he wasnt supposed to or dug, but any toy or treat he absolutely shreds, takes him like 3 minutes to eat a pig ear

[@user-lr5cx1ni4r]

@@arianarubi yes these videos helped me a lot. Thank you so much.

[@nicolebabb1584]

Thank goodness I ignored this video. Mine is happy when I’m home but is a fantastic boy when I’m not or at work, barely barks, eats anything without issue and rare accidents in my house. He’s only 1.5 years old and still training but absolutely one of the best dogs I have had and want another one!!

[@tonysumman3345]

I love them ❤️ cavapoo forever

[@Od4n]

Sounds s bit like a classic car.... A little one too.,😂

[@andreen596]

VERY accurate list. But if you can handle these requirements they make the best companions and they’re very smart playful and loving.

[@rudolf88]

It's not true about barking...my cavapo barely barks

[@maureenawty6629]

I have 7month black cavoodle with white on he's chest he's name is Jack very smart love him so much ❤️

[@briandesjardins728]

We have a cavapoo at our wood shop, she's the best dog ever! She doesn't have any said things..IMO

[@robertbrody4032]

Much of this is true (for a LOT of dogs!), but the BARKING is dead wrong. Cavapoo's are not big barkers. We read this in our Cavapoo handbook and spoke to owners. Finally got our Cavapoo in May and just as we were told, she's not much of a barker. And when she does bark, it's not for very long. Expensive from a proper breeder? Yes. Needs grooming? Sure. Best dog I've had in my life? 100% It's pretty tough to be sad when a Cavapoo is around! Actually, the biggest issue? Picky eaters! You'd have a tough time finding a sweeter dog.

[@Roryandharrythedog]

I have a Cavapoo and he protects me when I sleep

[@natelav534]

Theyre very intelligent and needy, but honestly easy to train if you give them the attention and exercise they need. But this is coming from someone whos first dog was a jack russel. God bless her.

[@billythedog763]

the aspca web site says the dont bark often

[@whitneylee3460]

lol all of these reasons are convincing me even more to get one. I can relate to them lol. Also they have them at the pound rn and groomers for $300 and up. I hope my appy is accepted!

[@mikey673442]

This applies to many breeds of dog. They don’t know they are cavapoos I see these same videos for many breeds of dogs. Maybe just think before you buy any dog. They all need time, money and effort.

I’m getting a Cavapoo and half of these won’t be an issue bc the breader we’re getting him from had an option to pay more for pre trained dogs so 🤷🏼

[@Pro_hood]

Mines is 8 months old he had no issues

[@britt1784]

The barking is conflicting information… others say they don’t bark much like their Cavalier parent. Perhaps the F1b Cavapoo’s bark more? But I’m sure it’s up to personality 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@DogsNowChannel]

Yes depends I guess but something that could be a problem

[@corinnelsmith]

yeah mine barely ever barks as well. She will bark at certain dogs on our walks but stops after a few barks. She doesn't bark in the house almost ever. Mine is a F1, half full bred cavalier and half full bred poodle. He is the best dog i have ever had.
