We have a 4 month old Papipoo pup and she has started to show a bit of aggressive behavior and we want to nip it in the bud before it gets out of hand but not sure how to go about it. She is usually a fairly happy pup, easy going and a bit timid at times. Lately she has started to show a bit...

Can anyone tell me how you can tell if a pup has a UTI? We have two pups, four months old and they are pretty much housetrained. We have not had an accident in the house for over a month now and all of a sudden last night, both of them piddled on the living room carpet within an hour of each...

No, he gets very few treats during the day. The treats are usually in the evening when we do a bit of training with him. He seems to go in spurts, somedays he eats everything and somedays he really isn't interested.

Our 2 papipoo pups have learned to potty outside even when the weather is cold. It has been as low as -30 degrees celcius here and that's very cold. They have learned to hurry up and go and then they know they can come back inside. Something we have been using for treats when outside is...

Our pups were 13 weeks old yesterday and we are wondering about teething. Is it possible that they get a little out of sorts when they are teeting? We have just noticed that both of them sleep more the last couple of days and are just not as playful as usual. They are also chewing on anything...

The pups are not 6 weeks old, they went to the vet when they were 6 weeks old as they were still with the breeder. She took them to have them checked at that age and they were weighed. They have also seen the vet at 10 weeks and are due again at 14 weeks. We put the food down for approx. 20...

We have two toy breed pups and we have been feeding them three times a day. They get fed at 6am, 12pm and 6pm approx. All was going well but now the one pup has not been much interested in the mid-day meal. The other pup still gobbles up her lunch but the little guy isn't interested. He...

We are by far no experts when it comes to dog training and can only give advice from experience. One of our pups was also getting very handy at biting everytime someone tried to pet him or play with him. He was pulling on clothing, etc. He was biting hard enough to hurt so this is what we...

Thank you for the advice on the potty training. I guess the only reason that there is frustration is because we take the pups out to potty and even after they have gone and done their full business we bring them back inside and within 10 or 15 minutes they will piddle on the floor. It's not...

We have two papipoo pups, 11 weeks old today. They are sleeping through the night (8 to 10 hours) and they are really good about going potty outside when we take them. We take them out approx. every hour and they will potty on command as soon as we get to the grass. Our problem is they have...

We have been using their names when we call and we also crouch down to their level when calling. This seems to get their attention. When they come running we tell them how good they are and they get a scratch and a pet. It seems to work well and they are learning. We usually call when we are...

We would like to know the proper way to leash train our pups and also to teach the "come" command. Right now we are taking them outside at seperate times with their leashes on and letting them drag the leash around behind them in the yard. We are supervising very closely to make sure they...

We picked up the other pup on Friday night and so far things are going great! Other than the new pup is still learing that nightime is for sleep! They are sleeping in seperate crates, they have seperate bowls and feeding times, we take them outside to potty seperately and the only time they...

Yes....a papi-poo is "one of those designer breeds"

Wow!! We definately didn't plan on such a negative response with our question. Before we had posted our question on the forum we didn't jump into this blindly. We consulted a veterinarian who is also a very close personal friend and we did consult the breeder. The vet advised us that yes, it...

Do you honestly think that will be the case? Our first pup has bonded with us very well. She wiggles and squirms when we come home or get up in the morning. She gets excited to see us when we have been away from her for any length of time. She is at the same time very independant. She does...

We recently adopted a papi-poo pup from a very good litter. She is 8 weeks old and she is a precious little thing. We have now decided to go back and adopt another pup which we are picking up tonight. Our pup is a female and we are also adopting another female. Does anyone have any hints as...

Hello to everyone! We are the new parents to a Papillon/Poodle cross puppy. She is 8 weeks old and cute as a button. She is a very good girl and we are enjoying her immensely. We have only had her a week but she is definately already part of the family!!!! Can someone tell us how we can...
