The Sheepadoodle is a mixed-breed dog, a hybrid of the Old English Sheepdog and the Standard Poodle. While this mix was originally developed in the 1960s as a military dog, it wasn’t until the early 2000s that the dogs gained popularity with the mainstream public.

Mensch und Hund möchten miteinander glücklich werden. Doch die Beziehung kann an unterschiedlichen Stellen haken: Der Hund macht, was er will, zerrt an der Leine, zeigt keinen Respekt gegenüber seinem Halter. Oftmals liegen die Ursachen für diese Probleme im Verhalten des Halters gegenüber seinem Hund.
