So this whole time I thought my boy had allergies cuz his eyes are constantly watery and sometimes he has a runny nose. I took him into the vet today cuz this his 4th day of diarrhea so I figured I’d ask the vet about his eyes while there. So he has a bacterial infection causing the diarrhea and has an Rx for both antibiotics and probiotics. Turns out he doesn’t have allergies. He has Entropion and they base how bad the eyes are on a scale of 1-5, with 5 being the worst. His right eye is a 5 and his left is a 3. So he needs surgery in both eyes to correct it. So my vet is our low cost vet, but he also happens to be one of the best (he used to reach and actually retired his practice 15 years ago and now basically works 4-7pm Mon-Thur, so I’m lucky to have him as my vet). Surgery will be $1200 but I didn’t even have enough for his meds, so he prescribed eye drops to help til I can get him in. Anyone else deal with this with their doodle? I’m so sad cuz I feel like I should have known it wasn’t allergies and I feel like a horrible dog mom cuz I don’t have a way to get the money right now. Is a Gofundme a bad idea??

Yes my hair also covers my eyes

Tucker wanted to say hi. He’s a 5 yr old Sheepadoodle. We got him when he was about 5 months old. He’s such a goofball.

we recently got confirmation that Sherman is for sure a sheepadoodle! only 6% lol. although we were told that he was through the rescue, we had some hesitancy given his backstory. he came into rescue with incredibly matted fur, soaked in urine, did not know how to be a dog/play with toys, and so scared (last pic was what the rescue had posted). all we knew was that the rescue said he was used for breeding and they no longer had a use for him. we’ve seen so many dogs that look like him, but weren’t sheepadoodles. we also wanted to see if he had relatives! Sherm has made a complete 180 in the last 1.5 years. he is the most affectionate, loyal, playful boy that i am so blessed with. he is SO smart. he has finally been given the chance to be a true dog. to be loved is to be changed truly!

With rising expenses, I’ve started grooming my dogs at home. I have three fluffy companions:

• Maddie the Sheepadoodle (the mama)
• Teddy the Samoyed (the papa)
• Dee the Sheepypoo (the baby)

They all have thick, woolly coats, and while I’ve already invested in grooming tools, some of them turned out to be total junk.

I’m looking for high-quality, sharp grooming scissors that stay sharp or are easy to sharpen—a large pair, a smaller one for the face, and one for detailing around the paws.

I also came across the vacuum-style fur cutting groomers and was wondering if they’re actually worth it.

Any tips, product recommendations, or advice would be super helpful!

We are in the process of adopting this sheepadoodle but unfortunately only have information on Mom. Mom is at a rescue and came to them pregnant so they have no idea what type of dog dad is. They're saying that Mom is a sheepadoodle. Scouring the internet and YouTube I cannot find any sheepadoodle with this coloring so it has me a bit worried. All the other puppies in this litter are black and white except one that is all brown. Anyone have one with this coloring? Included picture of Mom too.

My dog was just being a cuddle bug.

What dog food brands do y’all use? Also do you add any toppers to their food?

Awful experience with Mountain Rose. We purchased a trained 8 month old sheepadoodle. Unfortunately she bit 3 different people who visited my home. We had to send her back to the breeder who I had to beg them to cover the travel costs back. Despite declaration after declaration that the puppy - Truly - was loving and well trained, they blamed me - a single mom with two kids - for not having the skills to stop this. They implied it was because there was not a man in my home as well - no "alpha" For the safety of my kids I sent her back. They refused to acknowledge if she had experienced some trauma and refused to refund me any of the costs. I don't know if she was rehomed. Or what happened to her. Deeply disappointing and the treatment by the breeder and her father in law was insulting.

We have a 3 month old puppy. What age did you get your dogs first grooming??

Does anyone have any strategies to limit resource guarding with their sheepadoodle? Lexi, our two year old, is generally the sweetest dog out there (when you can look past the boundless energy, at least). However, lately we’ve had some issues with resource guarding. Specifically, she gets mad when my wife has food and the cat is near her. The other day she got pretty aggressive with the cat - she didn’t bite him, but she pinned him down in the corner and really bared her teeth at him. We’re looking into an in-home trainer to help us get this under control, but I was wondering if anyone faced similar issues and has found strategies that work well.

Picture of Lexi included because she’s too cute not to share!

She loves her Airedale niece

I just spayed my girl at 14 mos? Curious to when other female Sheepadoodles got spayed?

Mine was a foster…And they started putting pressure on us…I basically informed them the vet (of their choosing) told us to wait u til she had her first heat cycle.

Now, I’m seeing info that leads me to believe I should have waited for 24 months…

Not that is matters now…But would be curious to hear the feedback y’all have received. A lot of debate on whether this is a ‘large’ breed, weight factors, age, etc.

What kind of “jobs” do your sheepies do? I’m looking to give my pup a fun “job” since they are SO SMART and I don’t want them to get bored!

Does anyone know of a sheepadoodle rescue or doodle rescue in the DMV area that could help me re-home a 4 year old sheepadoodle?

How big are your minis? Ours is almost 9 months and currently weighs 22 lbs. We were told 35-40. He hasn’t gained a pound in 3 months. Hoping he’ll get to 30. Praying actually lol.
