REALLY? How would you teach that?

Maybe clicker training? What kind of reward?

WRL
I'd call Fred... he'd know. This is right up his alley.
 
Also, do you think they "clean out" better if you let them mount?

WRL
If you let them mount, they become almost "self-cleaning"...
 
Well it's really just a nick nick nick, gentle like. I imagine you could get the timing down just right. But really have there been any studies done on long term health issues? What about blindness? Or that embarrassing Pre-mature release in public? I think there should be some kind of health clearances for studs......
 
I make them into little nose mittens kind of like a muzzle. Boy, get that mitten on and they are ready to go but I never thought of combining it with a clicker.

I think blindness is an issue of if they are cleaned too frequently. Check with your vet. They may get hairy pads, also..... I heard the University is getting a DNA test together regarding the propensity for blindness.

Tha's awesome!! That would sure do the trick!

But I don't know if he would want the poodle.....

WRL
Lee- I'm tell you, they'd LOVE the poodle..... at least in real life they do. I'd definitely try it.

Any particular kind of yarn? To soft wouldn't be good.....
