liann1314 and scorpgal, if you both have time, post your poodles' pictures here and let us see see lar... curious to know mar..

u sounds like petshop bible.. 

Brought Dorian for his 3rd yesterday, he is 1.5kg now!!!

Hey, really jealous with you guys owning more than 1 dog! My Percy really giving me headache..
After neutering him, every night I won't lock him inside cage to sleep. I let him at the playpen and the playpen is connected to the cage.. Eversince I took the e collar off, this incident happen;; sometimes he climb out the playpen sometime stay inside playpen till morning. If he climb out, he will go to certain spots and do marking!! FYI, those spots are the same spots he do marking before I neutered him! Damn headache!!
During day time if I let him out and around him, he won't mark at those places.. But if  I go to living room and watch tv, he will follow me to living room but then later on go to kitchen to sniff food and then do some marking. His playpen is at the kitchen..
Most of the time inside playpen he will pee and poo inside tray!! Why why he's so naughty??!!

but he;s already 1 yr plus. He shud be mature by now. Never never let ur dog bark at u. It;s so rude! If my dog barks at me, i will slappppppppppppppppppppppp 9 his/her mouth. Even if u r hungry, u cannot bark. I will give u when i;m ready. U bark, u dont eat. That;s my method. If someone is knocking at the door, ok, u can bark to alert me. Or when my baby wakes up n cries, ok, u can bark to inform me. But i'm very pantang if u bark at me for food. I can be very cold-hearted when it comes to punishment. I dont mind if they go hungry for 2-3 meals.

How can they show anger to us when we so sayang them? When i work hard at giving u the best, u show ur dissatisfaction? Then u r not a good child.

hmmm..thanks for all the advice   About the marking, last time i used vinegar to wipe those areas but din really effective i think..so, i plan to go buy those products...don't know my hometown here got sell anot @@
If don't have i need to wait till my semester reopen then go back Kl buy...I hope i can correct the "master" issue ASAP before i go back to study soon...sigh..

He likes to follow ppl very closely at the leg..then sometimes he suka suka go bite the leg...after i scolded and punish him(slap his back leg) now he slowly reduce it....but whenever my mum or sis walk, he sure go closely then go play play bite...i think i need to ask my mum and sis to grab him and slap his back leg too..

He's too clever liao, whenever i wanna go out, i will put him inside playpen. When i go near him to catch him, he sure run away..so hard to catch him! Need to take food to lure him inside his playpen...or take food then use the command "come" then he come. I give the food  then i faster catch him and put him inside playpen @@  such a naughty boy!!!

Cookie again lol

try nzx pet paradise

kelvin, have u thot y u want max to be free roaming? can u imagine the situation? free roam where? @ the petshop or grooming room if there r cubicles or back portion of the shop or a special play area?

if he has freedom to move about, how long wud that be? whole day except sleeping time or just a few hrs?

does max know how to do marking now? do u think he will pick up the bad habit if he moves ard the boarding place, sniffs here n there, then marks on another dog's pee? or worst still, hv u heard abt the case where a dog cabut lari even inside the cage from a petshop? and the boss din realise?

or sometimes i see some petshops have boarding dogs running freely in their business section, running to walk-in customers etc. Wat if the workers were too busy at a moment n suddenly max is dog-napped coz not all doors r auto-locked. Even if it's auto-lock, usually when leaving the shop, u can press the exit button urself.

For me personally, i'm very selfish. If i decide to send milo for boarding, i wud rather he be caged except during toilet breaks. I dun want any accident to happen. By then, it's too late to kill the person-in-charge. It cant bring back my milo.

Like how mummy Bee says if i cant keep an eye on the bees, i shud put them bk in their crate/playpen. I think this is right coz for example, my bathroom has no door n i keep detergents etc inside. Wat if one Bee ter-lick any of the corrosive solution? the consequence is too much for me to bear. Even milo, my own son, i dun watch him like a hawk so i only know he has been to the trash bin when he brought back a chicken bone to munch in front of me!!

Every place that does boarding, home or shop wud have received many dogs of diff characters. If u go for a home boarding one with garden, max might get a tick or two even with frontline application.

So hor...do u hv anyone u can trust to babysit max for 3 days? ur housemates leh?

u changed his food? got diff btw artemis pup n adult...

Sorry, not a poodle owner here and my post oso out of topic, but i really want to find a boarding place urgently to board my min schnauzer girl....start from tonight till next monday...anyone has any good recommendation? Wish those boarding service provider who will keep dog inside a at least 6 pieces play pen...
Firstly planned to put my girl at XOXO pet borading, but only noticed that their shop will close at 7pm and there will be NO ONE there to take k the pup after that....this made me a bit uncomfortable..... 

Can ignore me if feel that i'm annoying here
