Ten years ago, whenever I heard someone had "crate trained" their dog, I was HORRIFIED.  In my mind, it was cruel to cage a puppy up like that and I couldn't understand how it could be beneficial at all - let alone not actually be cruel or mean. 

Fast forward 10 years later and now I am the biggest advocate there is for crate training. If you're like me 10 years ago and believe crate training is cruel, this episode is for you...

Have you ever sat in front of friends and called your puppy over, only for them not to listen? The embarrassment you feel in these situations is universal but I promise it doesn't actually mean your puppy has "selective hearing". Instead, 9 times out of 10, it's because of one of these THREE mistakes that you're making that is preventing your puppy from actually understanding what you're asking of them. Check out the three mistakes in the episode below!

You may have heard about Positive Reinforcement Training which is where we use treats to train our puppies rather than any force or punishment. This style of training is SO well suited to our emotionally-sensitive Cavoodles but today, I wanted to talk to you about the importance of implementing strict boundaries within your household and especially, the word NO with your new puppy.

The amount of times someone has said to me, "Boy dogs are more affectionate and playful while girl dogs are more standoffish," is insane! And everytime I hear it, I internally wince because it's so far from the truth. 

We cannot continue to make generalisations about the temperament of dogs based on their gender and a family definitely should NOT be making such a huge, 15 year commitment based off these claims. 

So in today's episode, I want to explain what information a family SHOULD be basing their decisions on when getting a puppy.

When I started breeding four years ago, no one talked about a "curriculum program" for puppies. Now, there are countless Breeders who do follow a curriculum program which is GREAT.

...However, I must say that a generic curriculum program that ISN'T designed specifically for Cavoodles isn't really going to address the behavioral issues that are most common to the breed (which is anxiety). 

So in episode 7 of the Cavoodle Coach Podcast, I wanted to sit down and speak about what a curriculum program for Cavoodles should look like and what mind-blowing benefits it'll have on your puppy's behaviour and personality.

As a bonus, you'll also understand how this will change the first few months with your new puppy from being overwhelming and full of sacrifice, crying, toileting accidents and barking, to completely seamless and anxiety free. Check out the 20 minute episode below!
