Zeus’ neighbor dog sounds mean. We’ve never met him, but he’s big & loud for sure. Their reaction to him is priceless.

Zeus & Gumbo Playing When the Neighbor Dog Came Out.
Poodle Health :: RE: Nibbling on self
Hi Joyce.
Allergys could be a cause, Boredom, (where did you get her from?)
Dry skin or irratated pads if its only her feet she is licking.
Read through this and have the vet check her out, although it sound like you already did that. Good luck keep us posted, Hopefully some other members will chime in.

Gumbo on the set of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
Extreme Makeover is doing a show in Mineola. They were downtown the morning of March 3rd shooting some scenes with Ty Pennington and guest, Bill Engvall. Several people showed up to watch the shoot. Gumbo apparently got the eye of the director, because we were pulled to the other side of the street and actually ended up being part of the background for the shoot. This was very cool.
Here is a video of the day. It is all iPhone video, so it’s not the best quality.
On a related note, the photo below is a young man, I did not get his name, who was there with Make a Wish Foundation. He has cancer and his wish was to meet Ty and the crew of Extreme Makeover. He did just that and he did it in style. The long white Hummer limo you see in the background was his!

looked up your profile,and went to your site.
Marquetta, read avout you, and your business, Congratulations and more sucess to you.
On crateing, Do short time periods at first
try looking up some old posts on it under behavior and training.
There are many ideas, and a lot of different ideas and different opinions.
Found this one for you ,but you could try a goodgle search for others
http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/dogs/tips/crate_training.html
read some but not all of above link, So I will add if it doesnt say to , that most cover the crate At night except for a small area, the covering makes the dog feel secure and snug/safe
I dont believe in having a young dog in a crate during their day, wake time. they do need to learn about being crated and that it is OK to be. crated
There are the times they need to be while owner is shopping, cleaning etc.
if your at home and can watch them.why have them in a crate?IMO only here
My motto on crating is
Get that cute thing out and enjoy them while they are little.crate just when necessary.. But they do have to learn it is Ok to be crated,
Usually the puppy whine stops in 5 or so minutes . Some are more determined to whine longer.
puppy proof your home, and keep a watchful eye on them., no one likes being caged, human or dog The dog needs to explore and walk around and learn about his world, what to do and what he cant do , That isnt learned in a crate.
If it is at night and the dog is young crate and keep by your bed so the dog is safe but doesnt feel lonesome.
not everyone has the room or the $$ to have a large enough pen to go inside it with the dog
, crating is the smaller version, The large ones that a owner could go inside are pens. some are portable
these are nice if one has the room for one inside their house, if they woek during the day

And my friend just above me: how do you simultaneously pad and outdoor potty train at the same time?
Curious...

I'm making very little progress. She still goes in the house. I'm definitely doing something wrong I just don't know what it is I'm doing wrong. She's also having a hard time bonding with me. I'm not sure what it is.

How long should it take for her to get use to it? She still cries a ton when I put here in there...last night I laid down beside her and that helped a little, but today I had to put her in there while I took a nap (ended up in the ER yesterday and my medication made me extremely drowsy), and she was sooo mad! I didnt get her out though. I wish this were easier! LOL

Toy Poodle Pictures :: RE: Puppies 1st ever bath
It has been raining here for 3 days straight and today the sun finally came out, and the puppies could have a run outside, well I forgot about the mud, didn't I. So they all had a bath, with a friend helping. Lots of crying and Lucy jumping up on us. But we now have 3 very fluffy and soft puppies.
Cheers
Christina

The real Guide Dog heroes of 9/11

Following 9/11 a story circulated on the internet about Daisy, a guide dog who led her owner out of the tower and then went back to save 967 lives and win the Medal of Honor of New York City.
The story was pure fabrication.
However there was a Roselle and there was a Dorado who behaved the way Guide Dogs are trained to behave.
Dorado. Omar Rivera was on the 71st floor of the World Trade Center north tower when the hijacked airliner struck 25 floors above him. Rivera who is blind was in the office with his 4-year-old Labrador Retriever guide dog Dorado lying under his desk.
Rivera could hear the debris falling around him and feel the smoke and unbearable heat.
"Not having any sight I knew I wouldn't be able to run down the stairs and through all the obstacles like other people. I was resigned to dying and decided to free Dorado to give him a chance of escape. It wasn't fair that we should both die in that hell.
"I thought I was lost forever—the noise and the heat were terrifying—but I had to give Dorado the chance of escape. So I unclipped his lead, ruffled his head, gave him a nudge and ordered Dorado to go."
He felt himself alone for several minutes, but then he felt a familiar fuzzy nudge beside him.
Mr. Rivera explains, "He returned to my side a few minutes later and guided me down 70 flights and out into the street, it was amazing. It was then I knew for certain he loved me just as much as I loved him. He was prepared to die in the hope he might save my life."
A co-worker took his arm. With her on his right side and Dorado on his left, they worked their way down the stairs. It took an hour to descend the 70 floors.
Not long after they reached the safety of the ground, the tower collapsed.
Says Mr. Rivera, "I owe my life to Dorado—my companion and best friend."
Roselle, a Labrador Retriever guide dog who led her owner Michael Hingson from the 78th floor and away from the collapsing buildings, is retiring.
She will spend her life as a pet in the Hingson home in California and as a goodwill ambassador at Guide Dogs for the Blind where she was trained.
Roselle had led Hingson through the noise, smoke and rubble of the office to descend the stairway. Once on ground level in the middle of the human panic Roselle remained focused as they continued walking away from the chaos.
When they were about two blocks away, Tower 2 began to collapse. To escape the ash and debris, they started running for the subway. Roselle eventually guided Michael to the home of a friend in mid-Manhattan where they stayed until the trains were running again. They were finally able to arrive home in New Jersey after seven that night.
