Ahh.. I think you are making a heartbreaking, but ultimately responsible ,and freeing decision. He really will not be able to live a relaxed life anymore .. wherever he is. I'm sorry .

Looks like they really enjoy getting sandy & salty . :)

) very cute - two pairs of eyes...

DR.Bach's Rescue remedy is available from pharmacies/health food stores..and is not a 'medication' as such,-it is a flower essence - something like a homeopathic potion . A little dog like Poppy would only need a drop , either on her gums, or on some bare skin ..every 20 mins or so, when things are bad. It's also very useful for stressed owners ;)

glad it may be just a language thing - I imagined a poodle looking like a siamese cat, points-wise

rock:hardplace. I would never take a dog with aggression to someone else's place to live... esp. if I was an employee. I would not like to leave a dog with aggression with someone else long-term. No help, I know, sorry. I wish you the wisdom of Solomon..

Yep, sorry, Blonde ...

;) if you have real broadband :p some of us poor country bumpkins don't .

I can make my photos any size , in cms .. but , obviously to get under 200kb, quality needs to be decreased markedly. S'OK- posting from a site is probably the 'right' thing to do - but most photos I post here don't ever get put online .

I'm mean.. ;) I dose mine up with rescue remedy, and let them go to their beds to wait it out. Life just carries on as normal around them . ( dogs & humans rarely sit together on furniture anyway ) ...

Yep - molly 22 if you are setting off on a breeding path.. find yourself a mentor .. perhaps the breeder of your bitch, or another breeder whose dogs are the type you like, or who you meet at shows ,etc. A mentor can be much help , both practical, and with the genetic webs

Apparently THUNDERSHIRTS can help

Molly22 .. You might find some relevant info - or contacts here, in the dedicated POODLE THREAD Good luck with it.

slightly OT..Just a query..why does everyone recommend posting photos from an internet photo hosting site, and not just adding them from your hard drive? I just use this, IMAGE RESIZER or other program ..and attach from whatever folder it's in...no double handling

Poodle ..from nice sound stock - they are great little dogs when the real dog within is addressed

Yep .. the spot on stuff isn't popular here either . slightly (or a lot) OT .. My first pig, Grunt, was obsessed with transmission oil! he would roll in it, rub on it , try & lick it ..... it was like a cat with catnip

Some dogs seem to notice things like that - some just don't care

Ah..OK. thankyou.

I think it's possible ...

Hopefully he just got scared and ran off , and being friendly, found safety with someone . Poor boy - and poor owners!

it does.. and he may well be one who gets his nose into places where this happens frequently.

I am wondering how she was able to do this ? Did you let her free-run because she was such a pain to walk on lead? Very sad.

Those photos are waaay too cute I agree the photo of Mum & pup is just amazing !

Maybe go to a reproductive vet and get blood tests?

Must admit to liking his appearance before the grooming .. The clip looks to be a pretty short one all over, and I can understand why you got a shock. It'll grow back in a few weeks though ....
