My family has two poodles, the older one is called Yunbao and the younger one is called Ziyue.

I have to say in advance that poodle costume is just a kind of costume, not a dog breed. Poodles and Bichon Frise can both wear poodle costumes. The origin of this costume was to cover up the short noses of disqualified poodles. Because of the cute look, it is now popular, and some show dogs will also wear poodle costumes in the off-season. Poodles have only a single layer of hair, without warm fluff, and they will just keep growing without losing a lot of hair with the season. It allows the owner to try different styles.

Different dogs have different personalities. Pure and impure are only meaningful to breeders. The best pet is the one that suits you. If my dog ​​had a pedigree and fully met the FCI or AKC standards, I would send it to the competition. Then again, how many of the so-called “purebred dogs” today were not “crossbred” from the beginning? The purpose of raising a pet is to crush the mixed breeds of other people’s dogs, to show that yours is a noble purebred “poodle”. Please send the pedigree certificate, not the dog mouth and dog hair without pictures and truth.

The following is the original answer.

My family has two poodles, the big one is Yunbao and the small one is Ziyue. I am a new poop picker. I think it is easy to raise, but I have to keep the trash cans and other things I don’t want to give it. I have a child at home. I keep it on the balcony. I can go into the house to play in the afternoon after taking a bath.

It is very like a child! I know how to read the face and hide in the cage when I think I will be scolded. I usually feed it, so I will be happy to ask for hugs when I go. My husband is in charge of the family rules, so he goes back to the cage obediently.

I am busy during this period, and I don’t take them out for a walk much. Fortunately, there is still enough sunlight on my balcony, and the area is enough for them to play.

When I am there and my husband is mean to them, Yunbao will come to ask for protection. Yunbao is more lively than Ziyue. This may be the difference between domestic dogs and kennel dogs. Every time we meet, he is very enthusiastic. Ziyue is an expert at licking faces.

I think it’s easy to raise because I always feed them dog food, so I don’t need to prepare any extra food for them, just give them some snacks when training them. Bath them once a week, and comb their hair every two days at most. Due to personal professional reasons, they are not sensitive to excrement. After a bath, they can smell good for four days (they have little body odor). I was busy from last week to this week, and I haven’t bathed them for ten days. I can still hold them and they don’t smell bad. I didn’t find a lot of hair loss. It’s no problem to bathe them by themselves.

I have tried grooming and I feel that I can’t handle it. I need to take them to the grooming shop every month. At present, my stinky boys are in the awkward period. Ziyue hasn’t taken them to have their hair cut. You can see from the photos that they don’t have much shape.

Yunbao died due to an accident. I think it has something to do with the fact that dogs are older and have a sense of territory. Ziyue has become much more timid. It seems that dogs are not as easy to raise as I thought at the beginning. Especially the two male dogs. Only with the passage of time, can we see whether Ziyue can recover his mood.

The following is my dog. Mobile users please pay attention to the data usage. The main content has ended. You don’t have to scroll down.

When Yunbao was still with her biological mother, I chose her based on this photo.

She never eats from the food bowl, but eats on a flat surface. She doesn’t eat soaked food, but dry food. She

always likes to sit sideways.

This is when Ziyue first came to our house. Except for the size, she looks very similar to Yunbao.

Comparison of the size of Ziyue and Yunbao when she first came. Yunbao is on the right.

Yunbao always couldn’t learn to drink from the water bottle, so I finally shaved her mouth hair.

Ziyue is better than when she first came. Yunbao

, who is only four months old at this time, has doubled his weight when he first came.

Finally, the fluffy Ziyue needs a haircut. The focus is not right, it’s a little blurry, just bear with it. This guy is 1.7 kilograms now. In a few days, Yunbao will be five months old and Ziyue will be four months old.

Added in January 2016,

sometimes I really miss Yunbao.

The last photo of Yunbao and Ziyue, Yunbao is 7 months old and Ziyue is 6 months old.

A recent photo of Ziyue, just after having his hair cut. Doesn’t he look prettier?

I hope Ziyue can grow up healthy and happy, and live a peaceful life.
