[QUOTE="Suz, post: 262660, member: 29"] I've had sweet Chloe for a couple of years now. I call her my FattyPattyChunkyMonkey. She's 15 stocky pounds, all white, and I had her clipped yesterday so that she looks like the cocker part with shorter ears. She is a puppymill rescue that I adopted from the rescue that rescued her. (say that 3 times fast!). Poor honey is so afraid of EVERYTHING...well, except Chelsea and me. I guess I'm wondering if this is residual stuff from the puppymill or if all cockapoos are afraid of the sound of plastic bags, people in the house, people on walks, .... Believe it or not, she's actually gotten better but socializing her will be a lifelong process I'm afraid. Home with Chelsea and me, she is full of bravado, has a delightful sense of humor, is an IMP, and is easily the most affectionate fuzzbutt I've ever had. She ADORES me. It's really cute. Are yours like this? Any suggestions for socializing her? I now give visitors food to feed her and toys to toss for her so that hopefully she will see that outsiders in the house are a good thing, not something to be afraid of. Suz [/QUOTE]
