  • Your children can play with the puppy safely, without being bitten
  • The school run is manageable — not chaos
  • Visitors can come round without you dreading it
  • Everyone in the family follows the same routine

Here's a taste of what you'll learn:

The Doodle Method — puppy training guide
Chapter 2
Teaching Place — your puppy's calm switch
How to teach your doodle to go to their bed and stay there, so you can cook dinner, do the school run or have people over without the chaos.
Chapter 11
Crate Training Foundations
Step by step from "I hate that crate" to a puppy that settles happily. Covers night-time, school hours and building up time gradually so it's never a battle.
Chapter 3
Building a Daily Routine That Works
Age-specific daily schedules from 8 weeks through the first six months and beyond. Eat, sleep, play, train, repeat. You'll finally know what your puppy needs and when.
Chapter 8
Stopping Biting — the family method
Written specifically for families with children. Why doodles bite more than other breeds, what's driving it, and how to get the whole family doing the same thing.
Is this for you?

This guide is for you if…

  • You have a doodle puppy under 12 months
  • You have children at home
  • The biting is getting out of hand
  • Crate training isn't going to plan
  • Your puppy won't settle — ever
  • You want a family dog, not household chaos
  • You don't have time for weekly in-person classes
Sound familiar?

You've tried everything. Nothing sticks.

Most online advice stops at 16 weeks, or it's written for households without young children. It doesn't account for the chaos of real family life.

  • Non-stop biting that's frightening the children
  • Conflicting advice from friends, family and the internet
  • Barking and distress every time the puppy's shut away
  • School-run chaos with an energetic puppy at home
  • Exhaustion, and quietly wondering if you made a mistake

What doodle families are saying

Real results from real families.

"The routines made such a difference to our evenings."

Our puppy was bouncing off the walls every night — following the wind-down routine in the guide, we had a settled puppy by 7pm within a week.

"Finally something written for families like ours."

I've got two kids under five and a labradoodle puppy. Everything I read online assumed I had hours to train every day. This guide works with real life.

"The biting has reduced so much."

Within two weeks of using the biting chapter, my kids could play with the puppy without getting hurt. It was the one thing I was really struggling with.

Your trainer

Hi, I'm Sara.

Sara Perceval — Doodle Doggies

I'm an IMDT-accredited dog trainer, a mum of two, and the founder of Doodle Doggies — a force-free training business based in Mill Hill, North London, specialising exclusively in doodle breeds.

I started Doodle Doggies because I kept seeing the same thing: families arriving at puppy classes with cockapoos and cavapoos who weren't responding to standard training. The advice wasn't written for doodles, and it definitely wasn't written for busy family life.

  • IMDT-accredited dog trainer
  • Specialises exclusively in doodle breeds
  • Mum of two — I get what real family life actually looks like
  • As seen on BBC Morning Live

No more Googling at midnight.

No more conflicting advice.

No more wondering if you're doing it right.

Quick answers

Before you decide.

Is this just another generic puppy training guide?

No — it's written specifically for doodle breeds and families with children. The advice in here is different to what you'll find in a general puppy book, because doodles are different.

My puppy is already 6 months old. Is it too late?

Not at all. The guide works for puppies up to 12 months. The earlier you start the better, but the methods work at any stage.

I've already tried everything. Why would this be different?

Because most advice isn't written for doodles, and most of it isn't written for households with young children. This is.

How quickly will I see results?

Most families notice a difference within the first week. The routines and biting strategies in particular tend to show results quickly.

What if it doesn't work for us?
