I have a friend who is thinking of adopting a golden doodle and a cocker spaniel.
They are from a loving owner in a private home whose circumstances have changed and now has to work v long hours and cannot give them the time they need - I am quite sure this is genuine.
They are both 3 and have been together since around 4m old.
The doodle is female and the cocker male. They were neutered 3m ago but I understand neither have ever been bred from.
They are well trained and appear delightful well cared for dogs.
She has two concerns: the distance she'd need to walk them (she can take them 3/4 times a day and has a big garden but how FAR?)
They have never been crate trained which is fine but dont have a dog bed either so appear to use the sofa in the daytime. They are currently in a flat and she suspects they sleep on the owners bed at night. How realistic is it to re-train them both at age 3 to sleep on a dog bed downstairs when owner out / at night?
