#1: Who am I? Answering all your Cavoodle Questions!
Hi! Welcome to the Cavoodle Coach Podcast - Rebooted!
I am so excited you're here, sharing my love for Cavoodles. I first started this podcast back in 2022 and have since had a hiatus of over a year. During this time, I have further developed my Cavoodle Breeding Program, here in Brisbane, Australia, while also launching some online Cavoodle courses -> Oodleway: Puppy Prep, Puppy Train & Home Groom.
To kick off this new season of the Podcast, I wanted to answer all of YOUR questions. So I reached out to my audience on Instagram and asked them what they wanted to know. Here's what I've answered in this episode:
ABOUT ME/BREEDING:
- How can you say you have x amount of years experience when you yourself are so young?
- Tell us about the most rewarding aspects of breeding for you as an individual? How has your work shaped you as a person?
- What is the single most difficult element of breeding such high value puppies?
- Do you find other breeders of individuals in your industry are supporting each other to do well or is it a matter where everyone is only interested in themselves? How can we encourage more open dialogue within the industry?
- Would you be open to being a mentor for a new breeder?
- How do you breed the puppies in your home and contain the smell? Especially when they start eating and pooping on their own?
- What items would you recommend for birthing?
- Advice you would give another breeder looking to grow and expand the business but is stuck?
- How do you test the temperament when picking up a puppy?
- Is there a possibility that in the future you might breed F1 Cavoodles as well as F1bs?
- How do you effectively screen your puppy families & what do you do if communication deteriorates?
HEALTH & GROOMING:
- How do you keep your Cavoodle’s eyes clean?
- My dog doesn’t like when I groom his face. Any tips on how I can get him used to it?
- My puppy is always hungry! How do I know if I’m feeding him enough?
- Have you heard of the two does vaccination? Seems like a new thing (I could be wrong) thoughts?
- I’m moving across the world with my Cavoodle, any tips to make sure they’re safe?
TRAINING:
- My 15wk old Cavoodle is turning into a bit of a barker. How do I change this behaviour?
- Can you talk about crate training and how to increase their time in there happily?
- Any tips for teaching good recall skills? Struggling at the moment
As always, these answers were off the top of my head and I always strive to be as open & honest as I can. I hope that they are helpful to you and the stage you are in with raising your Cavoodle.
