We recommend
o Prior to washing your dog, use tweezers to remove the hair in their ears so you can
clean their ears thoroughly.
o shear magic shampoo: Add some apple cider vinegar into the shampoo (50/50
ratio of shampoo and vinegar) to help with flea control, shine & an overall healthy
coat. Add the shampoo inside their ears and use two fingers to rub their ears, front
and back. This is to prevent ear infections. Using a diluted vinegar solution (a bit of
apple cider vinegar in a bowl of warm water), rinse your dog with it after the shower
and dry your puppy using the hair dryer! This is to prevent fleas and maintain a
healthy coat. The 50/50 vinegar and everyday shampoo mix is recommended for the
5L bottle as you can keep it in stock for a long time period and more convenient,
however, you can also do this step for the 500ml bottle if preferred.

o ProCare slicker and a comb - are the recommended brushes we use if you have a
longer haired toy poodle. The comb is good for tangles, the slicker is a good brush if
you want a thorough grooming.

o Every 2 months add coconut oil to the dog’s body. Rub the dogs fur with coconut oil
on a sunny day. Leave it for 4 hours and wash afterwards with the shampoo
mentioned above. This is mainly for moisturising and protecting the colour. o

Few other optional recommendations
- We recommend a collar with your number & address in case they ever do get lost.
- A harness for drives will make it much safer for a puppy’s neck. You can use this for walks.
- Retractable lead, let them run & have fun inside of always being a meter distance from you
at all times
- Take them to puppy school! Takes the stress off trying to teach them by yourself & helps
them socialise make some puppy friends. Or if you are happy to do it by yourself watch
some videos on YouTube! Poodles are by far one of the smartest breeds & they are quick
learners.
- Interactive treat balls/toys & teething toys
- eBay has a lot of toys & other cool puppy things you can purchase for cheap & in bulk
