  1. 5 Standard Poodles.....don't need a doorbell here!

    The noise they make whenever anyone comes to the door would be enough to scare off any would be intruder!

    I had a tradesman come here today, my male was in the house and he barked furiously....but is very happy once the person is inside!

    The tradie said he would not break in here. They have a big bark!!!......lol

    If anybody was confrontational with anyone in the family I have no doubt my dogs would response.

    I always feel safe with the dogs around.

  2. If you started quibbling with me about the cost of the 2nd vacc esp if it suited you to get the puppy after 12 weeks and now wanted to get the pup at 10 weeks because it suited you better!!!!......that would certainly get my back up!!!

    I could care less about your 6 digit salary.....those are the owners that usually get rid of pups at the drop of a hat....as money is no issue for them.......

  3. We currently have a miniature poodle here in QLD that has just obtained its lure coursing title which is very difficult to obtain for any dog. This dog is also currently a top show dog and just competed at the Sydney Royal this week. Considering this sport was original set up for sight hounds, so goes to prove poodles can scent and sight with the best :thumbsup:

    Who is that Zeebie?....

  4. What Christina said :)

    She may have also been frightened by a plane overhead....depending where they live! Nosiy miners make a hell of a racket if they think a dog is coming into "their territory", swooping birds. A truck could of backfired while she was toileting and scared her. A neighbour may have been loud or yelled at the dog

    Dogs can form lots of weird association. Sounds like she feels "safer" toileting in the dark.

    I would be crate training & supervising toilet time. :)

  5. Clear voice that carries (w/out bellowing)

    Know the regs and are confident enforcing them

    On the ball and resistant to distraction

    Firm with the prima donnas and gentle with the newbies

    Prepared to listen and act decisively if a problem is brought to their attention

    Accurate.

    I so agree with your post.

    Ditto...esp a loud voice. :)
