Dear all, we brought a poodle walking aimless around our taman last two days. He looks very dirty. We're not sure if he has an owner. When we brought him to the pet shop nearby, the owner of the petshop said he might been out there for a few days, because he has fleas all over his body. Maybe he came together with a pack of dogs, and don't know the way back, is it possible for a dog not knowing his house back? By the way, according to the owner from the petshop, he is around 1 year old.
How to know if that poodle has owner or not? We drive around taman area to see if any leaflet out there, but none to be found. If there still no one finding for him, we're keeping.
This dog seems energetic. Please give me some tips to:
1. calm the dog down.
2. remain calm when i bring him out for walk. He keeps sniffing, peeing, and walking aimlessly (i read from many websites, this is not correct). By the way, he must be on leash at all time, I still can't manage to communicate with him yet.
3. how to commmunicate with him.
I really need some tips desperately. Is it necessary for us to go for a training class? Thank you so much.
Hi... Maybe you can go through petfinder or put up notice on petfinder to look for the owner? On your concern:-How to know if that poodle has owner or not? We drive around taman area to see if any leaflet out there, but none to be found. If there still no one finding for him, we're keeping.

1) Poodle are energetic. Maybe you can walk him more often to make him tired which naturally calm him down. Get him a rawhide (cowskin bone) to chew.
2) He is marking territory, not peeing. When he is on leash, choke him(quickly pull and release like fishing) and reprimand him by shouting 'NO' whenever he is sniffing, marking or walking aimlessly. He will know that behaviour is wrong eventually. It takes up to many weeks to train but you will see them toning down on such behaviour. Just continue to reprimand him. Try to bring him to a tree where he can sniff and pee as he likes. That is to build his habit to let off the pee in him only near the tree.
3) A little training will help. Get some small treats and reward bit by bit when he did the right thing. Jerhigh of any flavour is the easiest to get treat. Communication basic: Sit(push his butt down with your hand and say sit), Stay(show him your palm and say stay, whenever he move you say no), Wee Wee (Pee), Poo Poo (Poop). If you need more ways of training him, go google it out. Goodluck mate. Share his photo with us.
P/s: My messi don't pee at tree yet... Cause I seldom walk him...
