  1. 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 ;)
  2. glad it may be just a language thing - I imagined a poodle looking like a siamese cat, points-wise
  3. 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..
  4. ;) if you have real broadband :p some of us poor country bumpkins don't .
  5. 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 .
  6. 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 ) ...
  7. 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
  8. Molly22 .. You might find some relevant info - or contacts here, in the dedicated POODLE THREAD Good luck with it.
  9. 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
  10. Poodle ..from nice sound stock - they are great little dogs when the real dog within is addressed
  11. 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
  12. Some dogs seem to notice things like that - some just don't care
  13. Hopefully he just got scared and ran off , and being friendly, found safety with someone . Poor boy - and poor owners!
  14. it does.. and he may well be one who gets his nose into places where this happens frequently.
  15. 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.
  16. Those photos are waaay too cute I agree the photo of Mum & pup is just amazing !
  17. Maybe go to a reproductive vet and get blood tests?
  18. 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 ....
  19. Ok.. ... I can see what you mean .
  20. So, does this mean that a groomer can decide the end result, if it is what they want walking out their door?
  21. There are quite a few folks on D O L who use/have used e-collars , and there are excellent trainers/behaviourists who recommend them for use when appropriate . There are also 'corrections' and corrections. One does not have to follow Koehler to the letter , these days, with more information, and the availability of technology . You might get some help from these threads LINK LINK LINK
