Twist finished puppy class earning her Star Puppy. She’s a good girl!

Watch feedback Code gives Twist when they are playing. He clearly tells her “No! Too rough!” Do not be afraid to give some negative feedback to your dog. They need clear communication on what is appropriate for living in your household. This is why I do not subscribe to purely positive training. 90% of what I do is positive and very motivational. However, I do have very clear boundaries and rules.

This video documents Twist's house training struggles and my approach during her initial weeks at home. She's progressing amazingly, and I think we're ready for the next training level, starting with a bell on the back door.

Who is my little rock star? Twist! One week here and very limited training. She picked up on the automatic sit within minutes.

Two weeks ago, I wasn't getting a puppy. I had taken the rescue pups back to my friend Darcy and was feeling the gigantic hole in our home. I was lamenting finding a small breed that would work for everything I wanted to do and was commiserating with Kelsey Wolf at Tintlet Poodles, saying she was dropping the ball on finding me a Phantom Mini. We have joked about it for years, but she knew what I wanted was a unicorn. "If only I could find a sane phantom Mini from health tested lines". Unexpectedly, Kelsey chimed in "I think I know of one". I looked at photos of the puppy and then laughed, as I told Kelsey there was no way they would place her with breeding rights. Kelsey simply said it couldn't hurt to ask.

That day, I penned a letter. Spilled out all my dreams, how I wanted a Phantom, but not just any phantom. I wasn't going to just buy a puppy for the markings. It had to be incredible quality, mentally sound, from health tested and titled parents. I spoke about my history in dogs, in Poodles, and how I loved Poodles, but couldn't do the big hair for conformation anymore, due to my personal health struggles. I sent that email and expected nothing.

A few hours later, I get a call from an unfamiliar number. Hoping beyond hope, I answered thinking "Maybe it is about that puppy". It was. Donna of Rannod Poodles is a second generation show Poodle breeder. Her son, now the third generation, bred this litter. The little phantom girl was unexpected, but she was super nice quality. Donna asked what I wanted, told me what she needed, and we agreed to both think about it. She sent me all the parents health testing, photos, and I spoke to Keith. I mean, a few hours before a puppy wasn't even on the radar.

After seeing a few videos of the phantom girl, I was sold. I put a deposit down and my daughter and I made the long drive to pick her up. We arrived home last night, tired but thrilled.

So, there ya go. I have a new brown phantom Miniature Poodle. I've got Donna and her son, Bryan, as my mentors to help me on this journey. I know little about brown Mini lines, so I have a lot to learn. They are excited to have someone showing this little girl in sports and keeping her available to possibly have pups if she makes the cut. They have trusted me with this beautiful little gal and I am in LOVE.

Meet "Twist". Fancy name is: Rannod Twist of Fate.

I like this Naughty Dogge person. She and I would get along great. It's about balance.

I was ruminating on the personalities of the Standard Poodles who have impacted my life. This breed is so interesting. They have a vast array of personalities, layers upon layers. I grew up with Pointers, Labs, Boxers, and Setters, bred and raised Shiba Inu, owned one Sammy, and experienced training my parents’ smaller dogs, Poms, Paps, Maltese, and Cresteds. I’ve also owned a few sighthounds. So, I have lived or had close contact with a LOT of dog breeds, not to mention teaching obedience classes for many years. Back in the early 2000’s I spent every single day, hours a day, at the Obedience Training Center of Huntsville, plus 3 years on the North Alabama Search and Dog team. Oh, and let’s not forget the Miniatures. I’ve owned and lived with 3 Miniature girls and each one was very similar in how they reacted to the world. I could give you traits on the breed and pretty much be sure of what you were getting.

I’ve found Standard Poodles to be different. You really have no idea what they will be as adults. I think this factor makes having them as service dogs so difficult. Will your Standard grow into a Poodle who has German Shepherd tendencies? That was Merlot. Oh, he was 80% Poodle, with a healthy side of “seriously dedicated, highly protective, hyper aware of his environment, co-dependent, with deep thoughts and worry”. Locket, I call her my Poodle Lab. She has deep ‘retriever’ tendencies, far more than your average Poodle. Eats toys and other soft items, picks up anything new in her path of travel, does what she is told with 100% of her abilities and doesn’t over think things, lives for water. She’s still very Poodle in how she walks, moves, behaves in general, but a big layer is “I’ve played so hard I have ripped my foot open, but who cares I’ll bleed everywhere, it’s fine”. Weekly. I’m not joking. I called Major my Poodle Golden, because that dog never met a stranger, was so bomb proof, loved to just float around in water, carried things, sweet as pie, calm and beautiful. Heart of Gold. Sadie was my Poodle sighthound. Sensitive to everything, dislike the ruckus of our barking Poodle home, wasn’t the brightest dog on the planet, but at the same time never did anything wrong. She retired to a family who would gently ask her politely to do things and shined. Deep sighthound tendencies. Anyway, just something bouncing around in my brain and wanted to share. Does anyone see traits in their Standard which you wouldn’t think a Poodle should have?
