Me and my parent brought our first house and wanting a dog with having a two year old we wanted a friendly family breed, after searching the net we found some springerdors close to home for sale, his mum being a tiny liver liver and white working springer and dad pedigree black lab, we fell straight in love him & naming him roary! He is a brillamt family dog, he is 6 months old now. This breed of dog is very very clever and picks up toilet training amd tricks very quick. We got him at 8 weeks he was toilet trained within just over a week, after a night of crying he got use to the kitchen, he sits, stays doesn't come up stairs doesnt jump on the sofa hasn't ever chewed anything but his own toys nothing valuesble furniture etc.. Springerdors are brillamt soft family dogs as well as a brilliant working breed. If your looking at getting a springerdor a few times to advice you,
1) always use a harness when walking- because roary doesn't walk on a lead in the field etc, when on the lead he can pull and a pup will only get stronger. We got a no pull harness from pets for home £11. It is fab I couldn't recommend them enough, he walks at your side doesnt even try to pull me and it's better for there neck.
2) with them being a clever breed they can get bored very quick, there brains need to be ticking with them being a lovely pup.
A kong stuffed with bread in big chunks a bit of jam peanut butter dog food anything in a kong they take them ages!!
3) A bottle with stones in for when he jumps up, sofa going up the stairs etc. not to hard and they don't like it after a few attempts he won't do it again,
Remember never to smack a dog all it does is scare them, we have never hit roary just a firm voice works,
They are the best dogs ever!!!

Springadormum's Comment

I have a 15 week old
Springador and
She has
Started to soil her crate or anywhere if she is left alone :( help!! We just don't know what to do.. Cleaning poo out of the crate bars everyday is hard and
Then having to bath her.. If she is with us she will sit at the living room door just looking if she needs a poo so we take her out. She sleeps in her own bed in our room at night and is perfect.. Sleeping for 7 hours and not messing once.. It's only when she is alone.. Have tried kongs and lots of toys but not working.. Any advice would be so helpful.
Thank you

I've recently found out about audible for dogs, which can be played at a very low volume so that the dog can hear and be comforted by it when alone but not so much as to disturb anyone in the house or the neighbours. It is recommended to pick a book that is narrated by the gender that the dog is used to hearing the most and in the same tone i.e. if you are often very excitable in speaking with your dog, sing-songy, etc. I'm going to be trying it with my pup (also a springador) but could be worth a try as it gives the impression to the dog that they aren't on their own.
