Winky the Cavoodle Go Viral for Learning the “Shy” Trick

If you’ve ever wanted to teach your Cavoodle a cute new trick, look no further than this viral sensation! A video shared by @itswoofs featuring the adorable duo Oliver & Winky | Cavoodles | Cavapoo has become an internet favorite, racking up 8.8M views, 479K likes, and 1182 comments — and for good reason. It shows exactly how to teach your dog to scratch their nose on command, and the results are as heart-melting as they are impressive.

The video starts with their owner demonstrating a simple yet clever method. All you need are a loose scrunchie and some treatos to get started! Here’s how it works:

  1. Place the scrunchie around your dog’s nose. When your Cavoodle naturally reaches up to touch or scratch it, immediately mark the behavior with praise — a cheerful “Good!” — and their favorite treat.
  2. Add the command “Shy.” Once your pup starts understanding the motion, gently introduce the word to pair the behavior with the cue.
  3. Practice without the scrunchie! After a few repetitions, your Cavoodle will learn to perform the trick on command — no props needed.

The clip beautifully captures the learning journey as Oliver and Winky progress through these steps, from curious sniffing to confidently performing the trick with charm and pride. Each scene radiates their enthusiasm, making it a joy to watch for dog lovers everywhere.

If you’re planning to train your own Cavoodle, this video is both an inspiration and a perfect tutorial. Their intelligence and eagerness to please make them naturals at learning such delightful tricks — one of the many reasons they’re adored by families worldwide.
