Irene Madrid says
I am now on my 8th and 9th STD POODLES. Grazie is my first female, too smart for her own good. I used “G” to represent that they are a German breed but , when I saw on Next Door a 13 week old STD needed to be rehomed from the Paradise Camp fire, I jumped in the car and drove through the black smoke. I usually have 2 STD’s at the same time because they cannot be left alone. My daughter named him Phoenix..rising from the ashes….and he is a Momma’s Boy. Grazie is a NICE alpha . Nevertheless less, she IS an alpha. All My STD”s have lived to be at least 16. No people food, a regular routine, at least 2 walks daily…and my grands come over and play with them too. I make sure they get any/all vaxes needed. They get groomed every 4 weeks. When I travel, they go to a home with a small kennel. My entire family have STD Poodles. They don’t shed BUT!! They can open doors, so use a dead bolt,lol.
Christy says
I was given a black mini poodle – who kept growing, and growing….and growing. Now is 24”/60cm at shoulders and weights over 18kg…….breeder was breeding mini and standards- I think a standards dad got to a mini mum. I originally number him Hova-(hoover) like the vacuum……except I accidentally called him Nova one night ….. and the bugger answered. So he is now NOVA. His little sister is Lily – not happy that name. We had a visiting pup that was called peaches- which is what I wish lily had been named- she not LADY at all. You would believe the 4kg mini roughs up the 18kg standard- funniest thing I have ever seen. He (nova) actually begs for a rest.

CARRILU TIETZ says

LuvAdane2 says
I wanted a fawn Great Dane and answered an ad to go look at fawn pups. When I got to the home and walked into their living room there were 13 puppies from 2 litters racing around the living room chasing each other, all fawns except one. The fawns paid me no mind but the odd ball stopped looked at me, ran over, sat at my feet for a moment, looked me straight in the eyes before racing back to the others. She was a blue harlequin and suddenly all the fawns looked drab, the first thing that popped in my head was “look at all that jazz!” She went home with me and and of course, I named her Jazz. I feel like she picked me and named herself.
My dog prior to Jazz was a rescue from the days when many “shelters” were kill and referred to as “the pound.” I went on impulse on a Saturday morning. When I walked through the row of cages, I glanced at her and looked away because she was so filthy, mats the size of softballs, covered with flys and with bloody scrapes on her nose. However, she sat quietly with blue eyes looking at me. I continued through the facility with dogs barking and jumping at the fences. But when I got to the end of the row, I thought, “you know, that was a good dog.” I asked them to take her out of the pen. She was an old English sheepdog and they told me they had had to cut the collar off her because it was so matted and choking her. She kept eye contact with me the whole time I had her out and followed every step I took. The shelter was getting ready to close, so I asked them if I were to take her could they give her a bath. They agreed and I picked her up on the following Monday afternoon. They’d had to put her under to shave her, she was very thin and I hardly recognized her except for those blue eyes. The woman told me she was so happy I had adopted her because she was scheduled to be put down that Monday at 6 a.m. They weren’t allowed to tell that to people because it might influence their decision. I named her Sylvia Angelica because she deserved the most beautiful name I could think of.
The shelter closed at noon on Saturdays and if I’d been a half hour later I never would have known the most perfect and gentle dog I ever had. She was an angel in every way.
Pat says
I am so touched at this story. We are never put anywhere “by chance.” Still have tears in my eyes from reading this beautiful account of the power of love.
Honeygirl says
Thank you for sharing your sweet story. Sadly, there are so many good dogs who get euthanized because there aren’t enough homes for them. This is why i started fostering for a rescue. I have the space and time and it’s been very rewarding. It doesn’t cost a thing either, the rescue provides everything the dogs need until they are adopted.

All of your stories are so touching and all of the names are so cute. Our first poodle’s name was Shaay. We had her for 15 years and then we had to put her down because of her bad health. It broke our hearts!! We now have 2 toy poodles. A white little girl named Macy and an apricot little girl named Abby. They are our everything. We love them and cherish each and every day with them. They sleep with us and are always by our sides when we are home. Abby has allergies and acid reflux so we have to watch everything she eats so of course I make her special treats and special homemade ice cream that has probiotics which seems to help with the acid reflux. i will always need their unconditional love and affection. Animals are one of the best things God created.

I have a maltipoo, he is 10mos old. Got him last year at 8weeks 6lbs. He is BEAUTIFUL.
He is white with a strip of apricot running down his back, his ears are orange (apricot) and he has tuffs of appricot on his hind legs, he’s the prettiest thing ever.
I had wanted a “standard” maltipoo 8 – 10lbs at the most, but my baby is now 25lbs.
We luv him just the same.
He is very affectionate, stubborn & mischevious. He “rules the roost”.
His name is Lucky Bandit, b/c he’s a little thief & likes to steal our socks & slippers.
I can’t get over how much we can grow to luv our 4legged furry babies.
For all of you who have lost ur babies — Im so sorry. I just hope when u r ready u will find another doggie to luv as much.

Teach her “right” and “left” to direct her. Attach long tie wraps around her collar as feelers.

We have a 6 year old mixed shepherd service dog named Trooper. When he was 3, he suddenly went blind. We frantically went to several local vets, his sudden condition puzzled them all. He was referred to an optical vet specialist 100 miles away. We got him there within 4 days of his symptoms and dr was able to reverse his condition. She quickly diagnosed his condition (sees this all the time) Both retinas had separated due to autoimmune condition brought on by rabies vac two months earlier. Two weeks later he had a seizure.(she warned us he might have seizures too) We had no idea a vaccine could do such a thing. He had had a milder allergic reaction to a vaccine when he was 1 yr old that we couldn’t isolate a cause. Now we are following DR. Dodds vaccination protocol. Had we not quickly got him to the specialist, he would be totally blind. When we told the local vets what we were dealing with they all said they’ve never heard of anything like it. We spent thousands to save our babies eyesight. Sad to think this is happening, and not being diagnosed and corrected! Very sad!

My third toy poodle went blind – he adapted well. I would watch him and when he was going to walk into something I would say CAREFUL. Soon he learned to stop when he heard Careful. Some tips – do not re-arrange any furniture. If you bring something new into the house take the time to introduce the new thing to him and watch for a few days to make sure he adjusts. Foofer was his name (he was a foo foo dog living in the woods) – and he could still fetch a ball – play hide and seek (his favorite) – and would instantly appear in the kitchen if anyone opened a carton of ice cream. He lived more than 5 years in this condition and the only thing I really stopped doing was taking him to a boarding place if I went out of town and couldn’t take him. I promise he will adjust and still be a happy, loving member of your family. Visitors to our home would not realize he was blind as he still greeted them with a tennis ball in his mouth – ready to fetch it for anyone who would throw it.

my toy poodle, guffry, who lived to age 16, went blind when he was eight. if i’d known how he would end up, i’d have named him Roomba, because he navigated exactly like a roomba vacuum cleaner. when he walked into a wall or furniture, he’d turn 45 degrees and go forward.
Lolly says
If she is loosing her sight gradually from PRA probably, she will cope quite simply by using her front paws like a walking stick feeling around. You can also put bubble wrap on areas around the walls where she could hurt herself if she bumped into them..
Judith says
I lost my toy poodle Rocco in January 2019 he was 15 years old and totally blind due to diabetes. I gave him insulin twice a day for the last three years of his life even though he had had cataract surgery because of the diabetes that left him sightless. We got a child’s pool and put a lot of his toys in there because he could chase them around and they wouldn’t get away from him

We have a male, cream colored standard poodle with light eyes named Lucius. It’s perfect for him and easy to shorten to “Lu” or “Lulu”! I also grew up with a black standard and her name was Zsa Zsa (like Zsa Zsa Gabor) that I haven’t heard anywhere else, but made for a fantastic poodle name!
Tricia says
I named my MultiPoo ZsaZsa (after ZsaZsa Gabor) too!

Pamela Lane says
I was given a 4 month old black mini poodle from one of my Hospice families. I was in a deep depression after being a Hospice nurse and getting far too close to my patients and their families. I changed his name from Danny Boy to Caesar. He was sent straight from heaven. He loved everyone and was a great protector of kittens and baby chicks my parents hatched. The smartest fellow I’ve known, it was a job for us to keep making up games and learning new ones he made up! He had a bad heart, but it never slowed him down. I had to put him down at 17 because he was blind and deaf. His heart was strong as ever! I know he will be there waiting for me when I die.
It’s been nearly 5 years, but i think of him every day and it still breaks my heart that I had to make that decision to have him put down.
I’m hoping at some point to get a couple of standard Poodles. I’m thinking of naming a black male Armani and a white or silver female Chanel.
Landence says
I LOVE SOME OF THESE NAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE SO CUTE AND I THINK THEY COULD BE REALLY HELPFUL.
