One’s first love is always perfect until one meets one’s second love.
~Elizabeth Aston

Years ago, I owned the very best dog in the world.

I was a child when we got her. She was a graceful brown hound, a
foundling who taught me that our pets are not purchased, but ordained.

She romped when I did and knew how to smile in that funny way that
only some dogs have. She grew up with me, always there when I needed her. My grown hand still remembers the sleek bump on the top of her head and that gentle divot just past her nose that fit my index finger just perfectly.

She passed away during one of my college vacations. My heart broke
then, and I knew that there would never be another dog like her, and there
hasn’t been. I was sure that I could never love another dog as much as
I’d loved her.

Fortunately, I was wrong about that part.

My next dog came into my life when I was married. My husband
traveled for a living, and I was often lonely. This dog grew into a lumbering Wolfhound and Sheepdog mix who taught me patience. He was a large, grizzled sentry, that dog. He rarely left my side until the children were born, and then he became their guardian, too. I can still feel that swirl of fur along his back and the weight of his chin when it rested in my lap.

When he passed away, my heart broke. As much as I had loved that
childhood dog, I had been wrong.  This was the very best dog in the world.
There would never be another dog like him, and there hasn’ t been. I was sure I would never love another dog as much as I’d loved him.

I was wrong again.

We got the next one, a loping black Lab-and-Terrier mix, when the
children were little. He taught me the importance of adapting. He was
everyone’s dog from the beginning, and that was just as it should be. When he played tug of war with the children, he dragged them across the kitchen floor as they shrieked with laughter. He always seemed to sleep in the room of the child who needed his company the most.

These days his face is expressively gray, and he spends more time
with me since the almost-grown children aren’t around so much.

The other day my oldest, home from college, played tug of war. We all laughed–just a little–as the dog was gently pulled across the kitchen floor.

He is, of course, the very best dog in the world. I will never
forget that exquisitely soft tuft of fur behind his ears or the tickly feel
when he nuzzles. There won’t be another dog like him.

And that’s okay, because we will never be at this point in our
lives again.

Sometimes I’ve wondered why two species that get along so well should have such different life spans. It just doesn’t seem right. And then I wonder if that’s part of the lesson: To teach us that love itself has a spirit that returns again and again and never really dies.

It’s amazing, in a way, how they bring to our ever-changing lives
exactly what it is that we need at the moment. They make room for one
another, this family of dogs who has never even met. And they fit–into our
families, into our lives, into our memories, and into our hearts–because they always have been and always will be the best dogs in the world.

“Hey Jacki -

“I needed to get a quick email out to you to tell you that Ringo is doing wonderfully!  I feel like he loved us so much and we loved him so much right from the moment we met him.  He’s done so well sleeping all night in his crate in Phoebe’s room (she gets up and takes him out at 6:30-7:00 when they both get up).  Outside of a couple little whines the second night (for 30 seconds), he’s never made a peep at night.  With some trainer help, he adjusted to all the crazy sounds of daytime walking in the city within a couple days.  He is a joy out on 24th Street (cute shopping street by us) and loves all dogs and people.  He sits at every corner before we cross streets.  He’s getting used to all the people who come and go from our home and the electricians and handyman and gardeners all give him treats and sweet talk.  He’s learned where to go potty and heals when I walk him around the yard — and we play after he goes potty in the designated are.  He DOES know how to fetch — and drop the ball and then sit.  Of course, he gets excited some times and we are teaching “settle.”  We know not to play fetch very hard and only for 5 minutes or so (the vet reminded us of this), so that he does not over-do his bones.  But he’s a genius!  He is amazing with all dogs and all children.  And he’s getting over some caution about who’s coming thru the front door and starting to get the stairs of a Victorian home (but we’re going slowly as I’m very caution of stairs).

“Jacki – he looks at me like he’s a human.  I can’t explain it — but he’s changed my life!  so many hugs and thanks!…sara

“PS – he loves loves getting brushed and snuggling and enjoys going daily to a play/training group.  The kids and Andy are equally in love!

“PPS – our trainer says he was so amazingly well-bred and learns so quickly — he’s resilient, happy, athletic, loving and huggy and so so smart!  He’ll stop and seem like he’s posing like a show dog!  You picked the best puppy in the world for us!  Thank you so much!”

Just thought I’d send a note and tell you how wonderful my little fairy princess is .. she’s just a tad over 19″ at the shoulder and 33 pounds at almost 11 months. Her vet called her perfect and she is.

She’s just graduating her first obedience class – at the top – and is heading into agility classes next. She’s smart and wants to please. Most importantly, though, she is the sweetest little girl you would ever hope to meet. She loves to sit with you, whether at home, at work or at Starbucks (one of her favorite places!). She cuddles with you on the couch, sits in your lap and loves to be held. She’s quite the little charmer and has family and friends eating out of her paws. And she loves dogs as much as she loves people.

She’s quite the little athlete, too. I see her competing in agility and especially in jumpers.

She still puppy-silly, and has the hairdo to go with it. She’ll get her first “adult” look in a few months, but for now she’s floppy and funny and my only worry with her is that someone will steal her. I’ve had a number of people as for her breeder and lots more just ask if I want to sell her.

Here’s a picture of her and her silly do ..

Many thanks,
Laura Rooney

Yzzie

Would you like to learn a very simple, yet powerful way to train your puppy or dog? Many times, the main issue has to do with an alpha dog. Often times, basic training and even grooming habits are nearly impossible because of a dog who thinks he or she is the ruler of the roost. Watch this video and learn this simple technique…The Cuddle!

This brand new video is available for about 5 bucks at poodle-groomer.com. Check it out and may your Poodle never be the same (when it comes to bad manners).

"This is just a note to include with the picture of Remy, the puppy we purchaed on Nov 11 2007. He is well, happy and a joy to have in our home. My husband died in June and I don't think I could have done as well without my companion. He weighs 65 lbs., has a trainer that takes him for long walks twice a week, although he has a third of an acre, fenced, to run and play in. He's had swimming lessons but does not like the water. He's extremely bright (the trainer says), loving, becoming a good watch dog, and has yet to growl. Thank you for giving me a joy. Sincerely, B.R."

“Hi.  The first of the girls’ official UKC Championship certificates arrived
in the mail today.  It is attached.  Mimi’s won’t be far behind.  She
finished her Championship with 300 points (!) at the shows in Manassas, VA.
As I think I told you, Valri’ already has 4 of the 5 requisite Champion wins
towards her Grand Championship.  She’s actually won Champion of Champions 6 shows in a row, but 2 of them were 1 Champion short for points.  We’re doing a cluster of UKC shows in April and/or May.  That should seal the deal for Valri’s Grand C’ship and Mimi is bound to leap forward as a Champion, too.

“We have 2 AKC shows this week-Thursday 3/19 and Friday 3/20 in Edison, NJ at the Raritan Center.  Historically, the entries haven’t been very high at
these shows but this year they are both majors.  There are 15 open bitches
and 2 Special bitches entered each day.  In NJ, it only takes 11 bitches for
a 3 point major.  Both of these girls are in heat.  It is the 3rd time for
each of them-they are overachievers.  At least it will be out of the way in
time for PCA.

“Hope things are good at Admiration Ranch!
Love, Lucy”

If you purchase a puppy between the ages of 8 weeks and 12 weeks there are some of things that you should be aware of.

1. A very young puppy, 8 to 12 weeks of age, is high maintenance. They do not have bladder and bowel control yet. To expect for a puppy this age to hold his/her bladder and bowel overnight is expecting too much. Be prepared to be picking up and cleaning, cleaning, cleaning up after your new puppy. My best advice for taking care of a puppy of this age is to get an “exercise” pen from your local pet supply and keep the puppy in that with newspaper down in an area of the pen. The puppy should know to go on the paper.
Buy some latex gloves at the drug store, you’re going to need them. Oh and maybe a new mop too.

2. Be prepared to get up in the night to let your puppy out should he/she be in a crate and start to cry. You must get up to let the puppy out as you do not want them to get the idea it’s all right to soil his/her crate. So plan on some interrupted sleep for a while. Puppy should be put to bed around 10:30pm and will need to get up around 6:30am, with a couple of trips out in between.

3. The very young puppy should not be left alone for any duration of time. Puppies this age generally have no common sense. They can find all kinds of things to get into mischief with. They are also very sensitive and if anything upsets them they can easily become ill due to stress. It’s important that your puppy be with someone at all times during this time of his/her life.

4. Your puppy is too young to go anywhere with you. He/she must be kept in your immediate surroundings. Never take a puppy this age on walks around the neighborhood. Their immune systems are not yet strong and if they catch something it can be a very heartbreaking and expensive experience. Stay home.

5. Do not have visitors coming and going. This can stress a young puppy out and cause illness.

6. If you have visitors make sure they step on a towel that has been soaked in bleach before entering your house or they remove their shoes. Germs and viruses can be carried in on shoes. You should also disinfect shoes before entering if you’ve been out and about. Always ask if your friends have been to area of heavy pet traffic before coming over. If they say “yes” then have them come back at another time when they have not been to a heavily trafficked area.

7. Stay away from your veterinarian’s office! Lot’s of bad stuff to pick up there. Give last vaccinations at home yourself!

8. Start teaching your new puppy to walk on a leash right away if he/she was not old enough to be taught by the breeder before going home. You’ll have to do this on your own because your puppy is still too young for obedience school and shouldn’t be around other dogs yet.

9. Do not let your puppy run around your house. This is truly asking for trouble. Your puppy is an infant. Make sure you understand this and treat him/her as that.

10. You will need to get your puppy used to being on the grooming table at this time. This will set the puppy up for a no stress experience when going to the groomer throughout the puppy’s life. Set the puppy on a non slip table once every 4 or 5 days. Make sure to never walk away or let go of the puppy for even a moment while on the table. They roll off easily and can be hurt badly if they fall. Brush your puppy, get the puppy used to having his/her toenails worked on, you can use a file for this. Make sure to keep the puppies ears free of hair. This means plucking out the hair in the ear canal. Make sure that the ear does not get irritated because of the tender skin of such a young puppy. If so then you will have to medicate ears accordingly so as to not have the puppy develop a painful problem. Do not take your puppy to a groomer at this age, the puppy’s too young to be around that many other dogs.

If this doesn’t sound like a barrel of laughs to you then we would suggest you wait until the puppy is over 12 weeks of age before taking him/her home. That way a good Breeder will have gone through all this for you and the breeder, being more experienced, will have spared the puppy the stress and strain you may have felt because breeders do this kind of thing all the time and are used to not getting any sleep, constantly being interrupted, being home bound and on……   Your puppy will be grooved in on the basics and life together, for you and your puppy will start off a with a much simpler routine.
