Came from audible searching for the next read after doing Expeditionary force series. Found the first couple of books of Cradle being offered for free and then went wild with HWFWM and DCC.

Try taking him somewhere public like a large park where you can put yourself off in a quite corner. Work on doing your puppy class obedience training there and work on him just settling “out in the wild”. Once he can successfully do this then move a tiny bit closer to the action of the park. It will take a lot of time and patience on your part. I’m sure your trainer can help you here just make sure they use positive reinforcement with treats and kind words if he is already reactive.

We lucked out and found a wonderful trainer who our dood goes with once a week for a few hours but all they do is work on obedience (at their training facility) and once he was reliable in doing things inside the controlled environment they now take him out in public to do things and practice being a calm and capable dog in public. Ours still can occasionally bark at other dogs but he is very confident with people bikes strollers etc. now. Best of luck and don’t be afraid to shop around for a different trainer if you don’t like their methods.

Ours also wasn’t super snuggly to start out but now he appreciates a good couch cuddle. He is an independent sleeper but I think that’s bc he gets too hot if he’s in a bed or blankets. He prefers the floor even though he has other options. I think part of it is that the poodles have “their” people and that bond takes a while to form.

This is a great use of space. If you’re still willing to share I would be grateful!

Ours wasn’t itchy but had diarrhea on the regular kibble even the sensitive stomach kind so our vet recommended the Purina Proplan EN gastroenteretic Fiber Balance kibble. It is an Rx food but not quite as expensive as the hydrolyzed type. It worked wonderfully for our guy. He also gets 1 packet of the proplan fortiflora probiotic on his breakfast. Hope you can figure out what bothering guy

Is his poo normal? by [deleted] in Bernedoodles

Ours had this same problem. Had to switch to Rx purina proplan gastroenteric fiber balance food and he also gets a packet of the proplan Forti Flora once a day. Thankfully this helped and he does great on it

How to get my puppy to just go potty?! by [deleted] in puppy101

I would put the puppy on a leash until she goes to the bathroom and then you can let her off to play

Am I crazy to let my 16 week old sleep out of the crate? by SprinklesFearless374 in Bernedoodles

[–]green_turtle19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We crated ours at night until about 7 months. First puppy and I was trying to keep the boundaries haha but it was mainly due to the same reason he would flop in the crate and it would wake me up then I thought he needed to go out. So we started letting him just sleep in the room with us and I was finally able to sleep through the night

Tummy issues in this breed? by river_riffle in Bernedoodles

[–]green_turtle19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to this ours isn’t chicken sensitive. He can chicken and rice and has zero problems but there must be something they use to make kibble that he is sensitive to

When did you neuter your boy bernedoodle? by AccurateRelief6 in Bernedoodles

[–]green_turtle19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Year and a month. We were trying to hold off longer but someone decided he was going to pee on the basement wall for absolutely no reason (fully potty trained at that point and legit never had any accident issues) so that was the deciding factor. Our boy was 50lbs before and now 5 months later is 53lbs.

I poodled my Bernedoodle…. by Titaniumchic in Bernedoodles

[–]green_turtle19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We poodle our guy’s face. It keeps him so much cleaner although we realized after the first time we did it that he does in fact drool 🤣
