In the future, the puppy will get used to the familiar sounds and will respond to the nickname without encouragement. You can not shout at the pet and talk to him with threatening intonations in his voice, the puppy will grow up nervous and cowardly.
One look at poodles is enough to understand that the nicknames of yard dogs will not fit them.
Features of care and education
Before purchasing a poodle, the family council must decide who will take responsibility for its maintenance and upbringing. The dog should know one owner who will feed, water, wash, walk and train. They can be a teenager who can cope with the responsibilities for its care and maintenance. The rest of the family should help the pet owner, but only when necessary.
Start raising a puppy is necessary from the first day of its acquisition. It is necessary to talk with him calmly, without raising his voice; a pet should not feel the owner's bad mood. First of all, the puppy should learn the rules of behavior in the house and on the street, it should be remembered that because of his age, he quickly gets tired, so do not overdo it with the lessons.
You can not apply to him brute physical strength, if the puppy does not want to execute the command, you need to put his palm on the croup and lightly press.
So that the acquisition of a dog does not further result in a sense of frustration, The best choice will be a small puppy, from which you can raise a good, intelligent dog. If you buy an adult dog with already formed character traits, it can have physical flaws and bad habits. Having decided to buy a puppy, you should not listen to the advice of neighbors and friends, it would be more correct to turn to professionals working in dog clubs. Puppies are usually chosen at three and four weeks of age, when their eyes are already open.
The first thing you should pay attention to is their appearance. Advantage have large puppies with well developed head and paws.
To determine the activity of the future dog, puppies are placed at some distance from the “nest”, released and watched for their behavior. Some rush immediately to the place, others begin to look around with curiosity, the rest are helplessly spinning in one place.
The first 2 options are considered the most suitable for selection. You can retreat from the rules and take any puppy, he will be loved no less.
