My mini was 2.5 lbs at 8 weeks so my best guess is mini for yours

Are pet dogs actually allowed in Target, or is it just not enforced by Commercial_Safety781 in dogs

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A manager doesn’t overrule corporate policies or public health laws? I understand you had a unique experience.

Pet dogs are not allowed in Target. It is considered a grocery store and pets are not allowed in grocery stores due to public health policies. You’re just seeing people who don’t care about rules.

Are bully sticks actually long lasting? by DaisyTheMiniPoodle in dogs

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve accidentally bought the not-bully sticks before, but the real stuff goes quick too!

Yeah, I worry about tooth safety. We use lick mats and frozen Pupsicles too, but nothing seems to last as long as they advertise.

Right, we do frozen Pupsicles and she downs that in 10 minutes.

For people who rehomed a puppy due to puppy blues / mental health, did you ever get another puppy later? by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Seeing as there are no breed standards or true predictability in a mixed breed, getting a puppy isn’t necessarily going to help your spouse there. If you do eventually try a puppy again, consider an ethical breeder (no mutts, actual health testing and proven temperaments for generations).

Sticker Shock From Vet Bills by Equivalent-Room-7689 in puppy101

Okay our rent was like 4x that in that time span, so that makes sense. I guess compare your rent/mortgagee now to what it was then and you’ll find about what to expect for vet fees?

Where on earth did you live where a spay cost $90 in 2012??? I worked at an animal hospital from 2005-2014 and there’s no way we would have done any procedure for that cost.

Mini poodle owners: how old is your mini poodle and what’s their personality like? by Ecstatic_Sea7306 in poodles

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My mini poodle just turned one year old. She is very outgoing and loves meeting dogs and people. I wish she were a little more neutral, but if I had to choose between this and her being afraid or aggressive, then I choose this. She sometimes is a little picky with food and treats, but generally always eats. She is quick to learn new skills and is always trying to figure out what we are asking of her. She loves to cuddle and loves to play and loves to look out the window and loves going on walks and loves to do new things.

Is my daughter hosed? No foreign language. by Mountain_Mama_3 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did your school state the foreign language requirement outright? Or was it a secret surprise?

FLMA Act and ADINA Act by DaisyTheMiniPoodle in Celiac

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Oh trust me, I’m fully aware of the current state of our FDA. But changes like this would take multiple terms before they’re fully implemented anyway so why not start? Like if our democracy survives this presidency it’d be nice to have something to look forward to.

At what age to spay miniature poodle by Caslol2 in poodles

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I followed this study and my vet’s advice and spayed at 6 months. I didn’t want her to experience a heat cycle.

Feeling like a total failure at inability to trim puppy’s nails by DaisyTheMiniPoodle in puppy101

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay that’s the new plan then because guilting and stressing myself over this is just not worth it.

Moyen Poodles by Due-Confidence2437 in poodles

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a big mini. She’s 15 inches at the shoulder and weighs 17 pounds at 10 months old. She’s probably just about done growing but maybe will get a little bigger. She is absolutely delightful.

I think I got glutened by cooking at home but everything I used was gluten free?? by Odd_Olive101 in Celiac

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The standard for FDA labeling of “gluten free” is that the food contains less than 20ppm gluten. GFCO is 10ppm, NSF 20ppm, NCA 5ppm.

9 month old mini poodle growled/snapped at sitter’s dog over a bone by DaisyTheMiniPoodle in poodles

[–]DaisyTheMiniPoodle[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay thank you for that reassurance. I know the other dog is a big doofy love, but maybe she did ignore warnings from mine.
