hi thx for the reply. the puppy is approximately 2month or less. They say the puppy still very small, so ask me bring back on this fri for first vaccination.not sure about deworm, will comfirm with them tomorrow. how to say it's dewormed? by injection?
Added on October 19, 2010, 1:17 amhi suzannetan, they bath my puppy on last thursday.can i use wet warm cloth to clean the puppy's fur everyday? Oh ya how come my puppy like very moody leh?always lie on the floor, not really want to play with me , is it still small or it haven't close with me?how much food should i give to my puppy per day?
Right like what Divas said, puppy shouldn't have left their mum before 2 months old, that's the time where they still need the nutrient from the mother's milk and also at time of learning and being around with the siblings etc. There's no such things as too small, which I've never heard or read anywhere before which vaccine can't be taken, my girl took her first jab when she's 5 weeks nearing 6 week old, I bought her when she's 7 days old but a responsible breeder will take care of her until 2 months at least.
Actually it's not required to wipe her fur everyday if she stay at home she's not really dirty anyhow? Their skin and fur is made to keep them clean, they're not like human needing to bath everyday. If you wipe her and she's wet, she may get a cold. It's better that you just bath her after a week with warm water and please do blow her dry (do this indoor).
Most of the things were taught by my breeder, he gave me at least half an hour talk before I brought my girl home. The pet shop didn't tell u much about taking care portion?
She's tired or not interested to play may be due to few reasons. 1 new home she's not use to being separate with the mother and siblings. 2 monitor her, if she's always like that check her stools and other sign if she's sick. If yes, send to the vet immediately and not to the shop (bcos the way you describe seems like they're not quite responsible). Normally poodles are very active breed, they love to play and jump around.
but still my opinion is to send her to get a jab asap and not delay, delaying 1 day or even 1 second meaning she's living without proper immunity. Sorry not to scare you but if you do read, many such cases happened or happening ..

Good day everyone,
I was informed of some bad news this morning by my girlfriend, apparently my toy poodle, Teddy that i got 2 months ago was from a blacklisted breeder in petfinder.com. There has been many cases where newly purchased pups are diagnosed with parvo or distemper virus few days into ownership and not many has able to fight the deadly virus. The breeder goes by the nick name Cylos Siang or QQpoodles, I believe most of you might have heard of him.
I have to admit to my fault for not performing a thorough background search of the breeder before getting the pup from him, but let bygones be bygones.
The good news is that 2 months has gone by and Teddy is doing fine, appetite is good, energy level is high and everything seems to be good. I do have to note though that Teddy was diagnosed with parasite that was caused by ticks as explained by the vet on the 2nd week. The doc gave him antibiotics and Teddy was as strong as a bull since.
After reading all the bad reviews and all the diseases that seem to be associated with this particular breeder, my girlfriend is in constant worry since.
I know there will an incubation period of 1~2 weeks when a puppy picks up a certain virus, correct me if i am wrong. Teddy has been with us for 2 months now, everything is fine except for the occasional sneeze that drives my girlfriend in panic mode(is it ok?). I would like to know can i safely assume that Teddy is the lucky few that was able to avoid the deadly viruses from the breeder or is there anything i need to do? Is a full medical checkup necessary?
My girlfriend is really shaken up by the news, worrying that Teddy might end up like the other unlucky puppies. I really hope to hear from opinions from you guys. Thanks
2 months should be enough, but just wait until he completely finish the 3 jabs and after a week. Don't worry too much, Teddy may just be the lucky one and strong one among them, that's why he's living until today or down the road if 15years or so
My girl do sneeze once a while too but not too often, I think that's ok.
Nowadays too many of these irresponsible breeder and seller, they do anything just to earn money without caring about quality and the live of the little ones. Just yesterday I saw in SS2 pasar malam, these couple brought 4 poodles with them and trying to sell and keep saying "We got all kinds of colours and breed, tell me what you want I can give you..."
I was like WTH, you human in pasar malam also you felt HOT enough, how about those poodle with thick fur coats and keeping them in the cage at the roadside? They shouldn't be brought out at all, when they're still so young. Whilst this seller let everyone that passes by touch the poodle, imagine Aunty hands' pick fish, vege, fruits and etc, how dirty is their hand ...
They're another one of those irresponsible ppl, don't know what's wrong with the attitude of the society these days ...
