I just got a GD 2wks ago. She is now 17 was old. The only time we have heard make any noise is wen she is having a crazy dream then she barks that’s the only time. And she is calm as a clam. Sometimes I wonder if something’s wrong. Nope! Not at all. Wen I bring the ball out she’s all go. The most relaxed dog I have ever had. Keep it up Daisy. I love you.

I’m a trainer and probably 90% of the doodles in my classes are crazy in terms of barking and zero attention span. The part that drives me crazy though is that sometimes no matter what I tell my clients they don’t seem to understand that they need to be keeping their high energy puppy from getting bored.

Anyone else's doodle pup nowhere near this calm?! My Goldendoodle puppy is like the Tasmanian devil if you only gave him coffee.

I got a poodle last week, and this video can not come on a better time. Thank You Instructor Steve

Love my Labradoodles. They are loving clean and Very smart. One is a certified service dog. Don’t listen to any awful comments. Believe me PEOPLE are the problem

I just got a newfypoo a week ago. Great timing!

Good video for new owners. I watched just about every puppy video (while taking copious notes!!) McCann's had out before bringing my Labradoodle home. McCann's video have been the best I have found. I've since signed up for the Life Skills classes and will become a Monthly Member at the end of Dec. A puppy is a LOT of work, McCann's has provided the how-to and the encouragement that my girl and I need. I cannot say enough positive things about y'all. THANK YOU!

Yes, this is great for all the Doodles… but it’s also great for my 🎉Papillon!!! 🎉

good job

Hi thank you so much for taking time to do this channel I have found it to be very helpful. I couldnt find a place to send a message but I was wondering if you could consider making a few videos about how to deal with kids and training. when and how should kids and others be involved and when shouldn’t they be involved. Also how to introduce cats. I have cats that are not familiar with dogs how can they coexist in the same household? Oh and lastly new pups and working? Thank you for taking a moment to read. I look forward to more videos.

We rescued an Aussiedoodle 15 years ago before Doodles became popular. She was so gentle with us and with kittens but I was not ready for a Doodle personality. #1. As an Aussie mix, she wanted to be on the go. She escaped the yard 4 times over the course of her life. Thankfully, we got her back quickly each time. But we had to be on a constant lookout that there were no gates open. Because of her we installed metal screen doors on all of the doors. That way we had a double system to walk through and she couldn't scratch or tear up the door. #2 . She developed anxiety over loud noises. I was really not ready for this. She was in the car one day when another car went through a stop sign and hit us. The collision was relatively mild with minor damage. I left the dog in the car while I had to deal with the other driver who was trying to avoid making contact with me and not wanting to share information. By the time I got back to the dog she was in a panicked state inside the car. From then on she was terrified of cars. She wanted to go for rides and be with us but once she got in the car she would begin shaking uncontrollably. Every time she had a panic attack, her pupils were dilated and her nose began to run like a faucet. We loved her to pieces but it was quite a challenge to deal with. We sought the help of specialists but very few people were able to help us. Most of them would not believe us that she was so panicky. I did finally meet with a behaviorist who taught us to use the Nothing Is Free In Life technique. Meaning that the dog had to perform some small task before receiving any treats or food or pets to build up her confidence. That did help us. But we were constantly on the lookout to eliminate loud noises. One day she was sleeping quietly in the living room. The front door was open allowing a nice breeze thru the screen door. A sudden strong wind caused the door to slam shut. Wow that was the end of her for the day. When she learned that the wind could cause loud noises to happen, she became afraid of the wind. We get a lot of wind in our area so we constantly had to watch out for her when the wind picked up. A window might be open and the metal blinds would chatter a little bit as the wind passed over them. The chattering of the blinds, which was very quiet, terrified her. I had to learn by trial and error what tone of voice to use with her that made her happy. But when she was filled with terror and anxiety, nothing that we did could calm her down. Actually trying to talk to her at times like that made her worse. I was always walking a fine line of speaking to her calmly, without petting her which made it worse, and/or ignoring her. We just had to wait it out. By the time she was 10 years old she began to be calmer. It got easier. #3. She developed a fear of tile or concrete floors. This happened because the first time I took her to a vet she was extremely timid and would not go through the door with me. Because she was tooheavy for me, I was unable to pick her up I had to pull her into the vet's office. That caused her to slide on the tile floor. Although I worked with her gently and tried to reassure her the whole way. it set us up for a lifelong fear of slippery surfaces. #4. We have alleyways in our neighborhood between the houses. I was walking her one day on leash in the alley. On this day the wind picked up and caused a gate near us to slam shut. She took such a fright that she would have escaped if I'd had her on any other type of restraint besides a choke collar. I barely managed to walk her home, about 20 to 25 houses away. She was constantly trying to bolt, the whole way, lookingback like she had seen a monster. For two years if she was alone in the backyard she would sit against the back door staring in the direction of the fear she had in the alley, shivering, shaking, nose dripping. #5. One morning I took her very early to the dog park. This morning one man showed up with a Great Dane that weigjrf maybe 150 lb. He let the Dane off and the four of us were kind of walking in close proximity around the park. The Dane became very excited and started zooming around us at full speed. He came by me headed straight for my legs and swerved off at the last split second. When I saw him suddenly coming at me, I thought there goes my knees! The next thing he did was swerve quickly and run at my dog and hit her full in the chest and threw her about 10 ft. The dog's owner did absolutely nothing and looked like nothing happened. Shaken up, I gathered my dog and we made a quiet escape trying not to attract that dog's attention. I checked her over and she did come out okay but that experience taught her to hate male dogs. She was no longer safe around a male dog at any time. She would attack them when she saw them coming. In short, I learned that Doodles learn something for the rest of their life with a single event.

Very cute❤❤❤

Dedicated (Each day) training with a plan, like McCann tutorials, makes a well mannered puppy into teenager phase. Leash training has been the most demanding requiring patience and lots of treats :-)

My golden doodle is like a Tasmanian devil too, as soon as I open a bag or grab something she go crazy😂.

My doodle is always in a crazy zoomie but my sister's doodle( same age same litter) is calmer

We have a 9 week chioodle and she is not food motivated at all finding training tough without the reward aspect to reinforce.

i have a question: If my puppy already know the word "Yes!" is good, afterwards when i say the word "Yes" do i still need to give my puppy a treat? Please answer thanks

I have a nine week old labradoodle and he won't stop nipping and biting

My cockapoo climbed up the side of the open topped pen and jumped out when she was 3 months old. That was the end of the pen.

You were adding several things all in one sitting. Is this normal? I could see how to play with a toy, then a break. Just wondering

My doodle keeps chewing on the training lead how do I prevent this. Do I keep it on him all the time?

TEACH YOU DOODLE TO "DROP IT", THEY'LL EAT ANYTHING, MINE ATE A SOCK AND DIED.

Plz plz plz don’t buy a doodle!! They are backyard bread mutts with a huge price tag. The parents are rarely health tested and they often come out neurotic and aren’t even hypoallergenic. There are so many dog breeds out there that would be a better fit for most families.

step one: don't buy a doodle hope this helps

My mini golden doodle pup tries to eat his own 💩. He’s like the Tasmanian devil too. First day of professional training today though. Wish me luck!
