Our new Cavapoo puppy.

He arrives a week on Thursday (30th June).

I can’t wait.

We’ve been on their waiting list and we discovered yesterday that we have been chosen. His Mum is a Ruby Cavalier and his Dad a black and white merle miniature Poodle. Parents fully health and DNA checked and he was born in a loving home. Ted was born on the 5th of May and has two brothers and two sisters.

He‘s the cuddliest, most delightful puppy. I can’t tell you how happy I am. After a year in the doldrums, pain and a spinal surgery and the awful news that my GD puppy raising days are over.

I’m going to raise him as a Pets-as-Therapy dog and I’m hoping to take him to nursing homes and childrens wards to cheer people up.

I told our granddaughter about him on our video call yesterday and asked her what we should call him. She said ‘Dot, because Dot is a hospital dog’. I explained he’s a boy, so he can’t be called Dot, but he is going to become a hospital dog.

I‘m in a flurry of preparation as I go away with my friends for a week on Monday. Ted has timed it perfectly to come into our lives, before we move house, giving him plenty of time to settle in. We are going to Germany for two weeks in August and he’ll be going back to his Mummy for those weeks.

Apparently Cavapoos are not easy to toilet train - but no pup could ever be as difficult in that area as Spencer - and look at him now!
(I also note that Cavapoo wees are tiny compared to Lab’s :giggl:)

His first Lambie is on order, of course.

My neighbour's Cavapoo when she first arrived, would barely eat anything, I solved the problem by putting a little smear of Fish for Dogs, salmon pate, think it was called that, on top of her regular food. You will find Ted will be much livelier than a Cavalier :dug:
