Toy Poodle In Training

I just came across this video and it teaches you a very basic way on training your cute fur ball.

Maybe you, too can try this .



There are also three interesting facts that you should know about training your toy poodles:

1) Scolding and punishing does NOT work for Toy Poodles ...and it can make your dog even harder to train!
2) Toy Poodles can be easily housebroken ...but popular housetraining methods often backfire with these dogs!
3) Toy Poodles have a special mental "trigger" that can be used to make them obey your every command like you had a special "doggie remote control".

RESPONSIBLE TOY POODLE BREEDERS

Buying your dog from responsible toy poodle breeders assures you of more value for your money. Puppy mills and unscrupulous breeders abound that may initially save you up to a few hundred dollars. Don’t be deceived though because in the long run, you may spend more on veterinary fees to ensure your toy poodle’s health.

Like all dog breeds, the quality of a toy poodle depends on its genetic make up and the initial treatment of the breeder from the time it was born until it is sold. Go ahead and feel free to ask questions. A responsible toy poodle breeder will give you prompt answers including supporting documents as proof. They can easily give you information regarding the dam and sire, and even the pup’s grandparents.

Some would say these are unnecessary – I see a cute toy poodle that needs a home and that’s all that matters. On the contrary, you NEED to know a puppy’s (or a full grown toy poodle if you’d rather have that) “history”. It may look “normal” upon purchase but in a few months’ time, your cute fur ball may go blind, have hip dysplasia or have a serious bleeding disorder that may not only be debilitating to your pup but will cost quite a dent on your pockets too.

Toy poodle breeders that matter are those whose primary concern is the welfare of the dog. Money does count but it is not the end all and be all for them. They will not just dispose of their litter to the highest bidder but they would rather that these animals find homes where they will be properly taken cared of and bring mutual joy for the pup and its owner (or owners).

The Toy Poodle Breeders

Of all the dog breeders that I envy most, I'd say that toy poodle breeders definitely top my list. And who would not envy them? Imagine yourself surrounded by these cute little fur balls that are bundles of joy! They are smart, friendly, huggable and ... they don't shed. It is difficult not to smile when you have these little creatures around.

Make no mistake, though, not just anybody can be toy poodle breeders. As in any other business, there are specific requirements. A definite requirement, aside from a vast knowledge of this particular dog breed, is to possess a loving and caring personality. Toy poodles are delicate creatures. A breeder who treats these dogs as part of his family, treating them as he would his own kids, will ensure well behaved pets. It also takes a lot of patience. There are different types of toy poodles. There are breeds that are definitely high maintenance when it comes to grooming.

That is the beauty of being in this type of industry. You help nurture a life. And in the process, when it’s time for you to part with these little mammals, you know that they will bring a smile in the faces of their new owners or even squeals of uncontrollable laughter of a child. And for toy poodle breeders, these are just some of the joy brought about by being in this business – a product that is saleable (one look and you are hooked!), and the happiness it brings to their buyers.
