I find with poodles that once you have a few already trained, the others figure it out. They are wonderful dogs.

My mother did the same to me… a few times. I’m 35 and I’m doing trauma therapy for this 😓

@@NS-xt5wv i dont blame you. it's a close attachment. and it's a terrible thing to do to a child.

My Mom did the same thing to me.

I know... I have a toy poodle who is 11 years old now. I love him SO fricken much!!! I don't how I will ever get over losing him. It's making me tear up now just writing about it. Geez. Lol People always say the best thing to do to get over your dog dying is to get a puppy. It seems wrong at first, like your trying to replace him but it's really the best and only thing positive that you can do for yourself if you're hurting. It's not to forget or replace him, but to move on from the pain of losing him. How are you doing now?

I agree i just got a new Minature poodle after our old Ash dog died. I forgot how bitey the crazy little pups are.lol

Ditto

your 11 yo little one could come close to another 8 rs or more. enjoy it now. :) i agree this is the meaning of "hair of the dog (that bit you)." the absence can tear you apart.

I'm a maltipoo owner, and I am head over heels with her! Poodles are just so loyal, adorable and they show so much love for their owners.

I’ve had so many dogs, but no one is sooo smart like my poodle, is out of this world 🐩

Deborah McLaren - Well if you think she needs psychological help, I think the whole world does. I haven’t seen so much love and devotion to animals in my life as she gives them. She’s Russian or Ukrainian and I’m guessing she’s about 65. She’s had a hard life and these dogs are her life. I own a toy poodle and I’d die without her. She needs to make a living and they all chip in. More than I can say for the ME GENERATION who couldn’t give a shit about anything bar their iPhones…! They are the ones that need a psychiatrist not her. She’s just being human, something 90% of the worlds population now lacks.

Deborah McLaren

you are so right. bless you too.

yes, carrying this pain is ....not a good idea. i can understand it, my mother did many dreadful things. i see it as her being a messenger and witness in our lives, for what we must experience and learn. it's over now, silly to hate. hard though it all is. i honour and speak to my mother daily, though she has been passed on 6 yrs.

+Yoo Paul Yep

I think there abusing each other

I'm not a stupid pet lover, but yes, these dogs are great for training so they won't care.

And no dog is ever supposed to stand on their hind legs for extended periods of time.

Your thinking is very very TRUE , animal not born for ANTICS for the human Excuse me , beacause im from VietNam so my English Grammar may be not good ..

+superstubes look at the their faces ,, i dont see a single poodle that is not happy these dogs are super smart and love to learn new things,, just, think , are, circus animals more abuse than people's life? ,,i dont think so ,,i peronally suffer so many years from school,, dogs only want love and especially poodles are gonna repay it back

Manos Pattak I hope you;re right. After watching a vile video of a woman abusing poodles to FORCE them to stand on their back 2 legs to make them walk like humans to make money out of them - it makes you wary .

+superstubes Dogs that have jobs are better cared for and more emotionally fulfilled than most family dogs that just stay at home and are alone while people work their jobs, go to school, and live their lives outside of the home. I know that the circus industry is riddled with abuse, but by the way the dogs responded to this woman I don't think that's the case.

kelseyautumn I hope you're right. I've seen a few vids of animals being forced and abused to like stand on their back paws so to make money for the owner by walking like a human. Makes you question all these.

+superstubes None

same :(

the REAL bluehat I actually got one. XD now that I’m older.

ooo

Yup, Russian

Thank you for your information :-)

I have a poodle who has not been trained and had never been asked to get up on her back legs she does it automatically, often spinning in circles or waving her two front paws at the same time. She can stand on her back legs for a very long time just like a meerkat. She looks like a meerkat when she leaves her front paws relaxed and in downward position. When she does this, my daughter has started calling out kangaroo it might turn out to be a trick after all :)

Oh shush! You've obviously never been around a poodle before. I've had them all my life and they all walk on their hind legs, without being trained even. Especially toy poodles. They are very intelligent, easy to train, and I might even argue that they need the mental stimulation of learning numerous tricks to stay happy. Those dogs are probably in poodle heaven performing. I actually have to be careful about when I laugh at the things mine does, because if she gets a positive reaction from me, she will keep doing the behavior.
