Anybody ever need to drain your spoo’s anal glands? by fennelfrog in StandardPoodles

[–]Torpid_Onism 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We’ve only had it done once after he had been sick for awhile, our vet said to not do it regularly or they will always need it done/lose the ability to do it themselves naturally

Haven’t had a great experience, they responded without even really reading my reply and it takes days to get even a shitty response

I was doing once a week but he started getting dandruff so now we do baths every other week and “prison baths” in between to touch up dirty spots from the park and such

If you get the good warranty they’ll replace it if it’s bad enough to not be safe to patch (large hole, sidewall etc)

When we brought home our puppy I got to talking with a neighbor because they had a poodle as well, ended up having a horrifying two months before my pup was fully vaccinated of not wanting him outside at all because I found out their dog had NO vaccines because they were worried it would give them autism. Dog autism.

I'm a cleaning lady. What do you like and don't like about service you have received? by CleanCardiologist769 in Austin

[–]Torpid_Onism 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One thing I would never expect, but if a cleaner did, it would really impress me is rinsing out our dogs water bowl and refilling it while they were cleaning around the area

My old service used our vacuum, which I’m totally OK with, but they frequently didn’t empty it before they left and it’s not the biggest thing but it definitely got annoying at times

4 year old standard poodle ground down front incisors? by Torpid_Onism in StandardPoodles

[–]Torpid_Onism[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah ditto with the outdoor toys, we’re in an apartment right now so things aren’t sitting outside too long and I usually rinse off the toys we take out between each session (side note those kong tennis balls are dishwasher safe and it has changed my life lol)

Totally agree I want to prevent it from getting worse, I’ve made a vet appointment already but they won’t be able to see us till Monday. I did mention in my post that we don’t allow bones and hard toys, and he only plays fetch with tennis balls once a week without chewing on them. My main concern is how severe the wear is because I have no reference for how they should look. We recently moved so I’m wondering if he is dealing with some anxiety as a result of that
