Poodles. |
|
|
|
There are three sizes of Poodles--Standard, Miniature,
and Toy. They are alike in every way except for
size. All Poodles originated from the Standard Poodle.
Poodles are smart, loyal, proud and fun. They seem
to understand the moods of their special friends.
They enjoy the challenges of obedience training,
which gives these intelligent dogs great happiness.
Politely reserved around strangers, they can also
have a playful sense of humour.

| Useful Pet Tips |
1. Using metal water dishes outside
in winter may be a risk, because your pet's
tongue could stick to the frozen metal. In
the summer medal bowls can get very hot, and
burn your dog.
2. If you have a puppy that
pees on your carpet. After soaking up most
of the mess with paper towel, sprinkle a generous
amount of bicarbontae of soda (baking soda)
over the area and leave it to absorb both
the traces of urine and the odor.
3. If your dog runs away
from you and you finally catch up to it, no
matter how angry you are at the dog, do not
yell or smack it or your dog will never come
to you when called for fear of being punished.
4. Do not leave your dog
unattended on a choke chain. The chain could
get caught and strangle the dog.
5. Do not leave your dog
in the car unattended on hot days. Even with
the windows open, temperatures in cars WILL
reach deadly levels. It only takes 5 minutes!
6. To keep your dog busy,
buy toys with little holes in, put both big
and small pieces of kibble in the toy and
give it to your dog. This will keep him busy
for quite awhile presuming he has a few small
ones that he gets out quickly. You can also
wedge dog biscuits in the holes with a smear
of peanut butter.
7. When your dog is teething,
instead of have him chewing on couches, walls
etc. Buy a few (cheap) wash clothes. Soak
the wash cloth and put it ion the freezer.
When fully frozen give it to the dog to chew,
it will thaw out so have another one ready
in the freezer. (be careful when doing this
with very small dogs, as they may get a chill.
I have heard of small dogs getting too cold
too quickly when chewing on ice.)
