Marty- At Show Dog Training Camp

Well, Marty, Amandi's Marty Michelet, is now at Michael's, our handler's, to get ready for an August show series.  His coat is ready and now we have to get his mind in the game to really work the show ring.  We have high hopes he puts it all together and wows the judges soon.  Michael has all the faith in the world in him so we are crossing our fingers and saying our prayers.  It takes so much time and comitment to get a poodle to the AKC show ring and for us it has been a labor of love for over 10 months.  We'll see.  Only time, and Marty, will tell.

Our puppies are raised in the house and are exposed to scents before they open their eyes, the sound a vacuum, loud noises, sensitivity handling, and other training techniques for temperament development. When they are mobile, they are given many toys and obstacles in their play area to challenge them and expose them to many things they will encounter in real life situations. They are also exposed to water in a kiddie pool and many different humans.  At 6 weeks they start crate training and will begin sleeping in their crate at night. Temperament evaluations are conducted regularly and vet check, weigh-ins, and socialization are part of our program.
