Minnie has now arrived, she is going to be a great addition to our family!!
She has been really good, most poo's and wee wees outside!!! A few accidents but hey she is a baby.... A very cute one at that.
3 sleepless nights, but hopefully she will settle in a week or two in the crate in the evenings..... Must be very upsetting not being with your mum, brothers & sisters. Any night tips to make her settle more easily would be most appreciated
Hope all you other cockapoos are well this morning :-D

Minnie is lovely and nice to hear she is settling in!
My advice with night times is to remain consistent in whatever you do. With Billy we had a crate downstairs (covered with blanket), with half bed and half puppy pad. We didn't go down to any crying and by about the 3rd or 4th night he was going from 11pm to 7.30am.
Good luck!

Ah she's a curly beauty! What sort of mix is she? I can only give the same advice as the above as that's exactly what we did and I didn't worry about having a puppy pad there as I don't believe they encourage the dog to go in it long-term. I took the opinion that if it took a bit longer then I would rather have my sleep. However, it was only wet for a week or so and was dry from then on. It just saves you having to get up during the night. Looking forward to further pics!

Morning Zoe and Minnie .. oh she is so gorgeous ... where did you get her? Love the black beauties and her coat texture looks so soft and curly .. pretty cockapoo

Oh no I cant keep feeling this broody .. my hubby is feeling the pressure for another cockapoo baby lol xxxx

Gorgeous! She looks very like Peppa mark I who was an FIb with a wonderful curly black coat like her.

As long as you decide on your house rules (where she sleeps, what she is allowed on etc) and stick with them she will soon settle to all.

Minnie is gorgeous!
Maybe put in one of your old t shirts or jumpers in with her that you've been wearing with your scent on, that may help her to settle.

Thank you so much for your kind comments & advise. We have the crate covered, and we put her in throughout the day, but she really is not too keen !! Will keep persisting
She is a American cocker / miniature poodle.... Her father is Chico from Anzil and her mum is a breeder to near where I live.

It really is like having a baby all over again :-D
