Hello all, I'm planning to get a poodle in June 2007.  But before that, I wanna know more information on poodle.  What should I get ready before I buy the poodle?  And how much does it cost for grooming and how often?
*
nothing to worry
my family has never kept a dog before for the past 20+ years, but xiaomao poodle fit into our life well & fast.

for the grooming part, u can learn to do it yourself (for those simple one, like nail cutting etc). Even do it at pet shop also wont cost you much, if you dont do it very often.

Not mine, the other 3 belong to another owner. This place is a dog park located in JB. A good place for dogs and their owners to hang out.

Heya, thanks for the advices!!! Great advices!!  Help me a lot in taking care of a poodle.  Don't worry - I plan to keep his fur as short as possible.  I don't like long fur either - Messy and get all tangled up.

I don't plan to train him to pee poo on newspaper.  Plan to get a container of toyogo box size but lower height.  Then get some kinda plastic basket that have holes like siever and diy myself and put on top of the container - wanna make it like a "real" toilet.  Fill in a low level of water in the container.  And carry the poodle to make him sit on top of the "siever-like basket" everytime after he makan and nap.  Make him know that is his "toilet" and he shud go thr when he wanna pee poo. Is it possible to train him in this way??

My dog dun have fur problem also, so dun think need to worry that. Vet has told me that food wont cause fur problem, u want to feed them "char siew" also can rclxub.gif
Xiao Mao now pee poo in his cage, his cage become his toilet and he roam freely inside the house. he sleeps in living room.

Syrian,  smile.gif

preparing to bring home a puppy is a huge thing... I like to think of it as welcoming home a baby... so all the basic essentials like sleeping place & some toys are called for... prepare urself especially emotionally & physically for some tough puppy parenting & training especially the toilet traning part... as cute as our poodle darlings are, they still need to be toilet trained... poodles can get very attached to u if there are not many family members around so be prepared for some real manja-ing... kekeke  smile.gif ...
I groom my poodle myself... outside it can range anywhere between rm60 to rm100 depending on where u send to... u'll probably need to send for proper grooming every 3 months the most... anything longer than that u'll have a real scary dog to handle...  tongue.gif If u dun really have much time for grooming, i suggest u keep the coat short for easy maintainace...
one more advice, choose & pick carefully before u buy... try to avoid pet shops & puppy millers... it's heart breaking to hear frens bringing home puppies & loosing them after few weeks...
good luck...

so far we have only spent RM10 on grooming etc. that RM10 is to pluck the hair grow in inner ears. becoz it's painful to the dog that is why we dont want to do it ourselves.

what about the body?... how do u manage?... how old is ur poodle now?...
I DIY everything coz here in KL can be expensive I am terribly worried about my Ladee getting infection... once a fren sent her 2 dogs for grooming & they came back with skin problems... when they send to vet, vet said maybe the grooming equipments not disinfected properly...  ohmy.gif

I pulg her ear hair once every 2 weeks & trim her coat every 1.5 months... got a pet grooming clipper specially for her...  tongue.gif

he is abt 5mths old, bday 30/07.
paiseh to tell you that we seldom cut his hair, just let it grows "naturally". or at least i nv cut before, i dont think my little sis cut his hair often also (she is the official owner and caregiver, the rest of us are just his playmates and "resource provider"). that is why u will see our poodle looks a bit different from the typical one.... blush.gif

But ur poodle is really a cutie wub.gif.  I like the fur - hehe.  If I want to groom myself tongue.gif, what type of scissor should I get??  But the first grooming, I'll leave it to the groomer at the shop.  Try and observe how they do it and I'll know how to diy too - hehe.  I cut my bf's hair spikey 3 times already  wink.gif

u mean normal scissors for cutting hair ??  With the "teeth" one or without the "teeth" ?  I got two scissors - one is normal scissor and one is for cutting layer - hehe.

Better go back to my studies.  Tomorrow 2 papers and I'm not prepared yet.
*
aiyo it depends on you lah doh.gif
if u want layer, then use the layer one. if you dont want layer, just the normal one lah tongue.gif . your dog cant say no also.... rclxm9.gif you are his/her stylist mah

but my friend got a dog very funny. everytime after his hair being cut, he will hide himself somewhere and dont see ppl other than for food (within the house ofcoz). according to my friend his dog feel "malu" (coz my friend only anyhow cut, he just wants his hair to be short).

Hahahahaa... cute little fella.  First time hear dogs will also malu .. LOL laugh.gif.  Then how often do u send him for the ear grooming thingy?  I didn't know I have to pluck the fur from the ears.  Share some more of ur experiences with ur poodle tongue.gifnotworthy.gif  I'm getting to know more and more info on poodle from u guys here.  Really appreciate those info  hands.gif  icon_idea.gif  thumbup.gif

this is to prevent ear infection, dog's ears get infected easily. so must keep their ears clean and dry. long fur inside the ears can grow gems.
that was the 1st time we brought xiaomao to pluck his inner ear hair after so many months (he joined us on 07/10/06), end up kena lecture by the shop. they said cannot wait until it grows so long, got smell already. must do it more often, like ard 1mths+ once.
