Hi Crunchie! I really loved reading your post to my problem. 'We've shave Cuddles hair to less than 1 inch and when she comes back from the park I've continued with the grooming i.e. brushing, washing her paws, taking a damp cloth and washing her body and then going over it with baby wipes and even ...

Thanks Nettle!! I agree with the overheating, and even though Cuddles coat is cut down to an inch, I think she can handle the cold weather. Like I said I had her out at night and it was 55 degrees and she was fine! I'll just bring the coat just incase and I'll do what you suggested and check to see ...

Hi All, I need some advise! Yesterday, Cuddles got her hair cut off. She had a THICK 2 inch coat. I am taking her for a walk EARLY morning where it has been dropping to 37 degree. Next week it will be 47 degrees in the early morning. So being that we cut her fleece off do you think I should get her ...

Hi Nettle! It is an awkard situation! When we came home from the doctor, my Mom took the pill and guess what??? SHE IS STIIL ITCHING :( I haven't taken Cuddles to the park in THREE whole days :? So, now we are going to try taking her to the groomers and have her hair cut a little shorter. Something ...

Well, just got back from taking my Mom to the doctor, and he THINKS though not sure that its the park grass that is making my Mom allergic.

He gave her some pills, but I was asked not by my doctor, but, by the parents to stop walking her in the park

Thanks for the replies,

Kalo

General info: If her hair is like a Poodle (doesn't ever shed, just grows), then a hair cut will be needed in the future since Poodle's hair grows forever if not cut. Since Cuddles is a cross, only you can judge what her hair is like. Wicket, Cuddles's hair is WAVEY and is a cross mix between a Kin...

Hi Nettle & Runlikethewind! I AGREE with what you are saying!!! My Mom eat's chocolate like crazy and my Dad suspected that might have been what is doing it. I don't know though, she has caught of chocolate for a week and still know results. She did have surgery about two months ago, and I notic...

Hi All, A few weeks ago or so I posted about grass allergies that I think is affecting my Mom. Tomorrow we are going to the doctor to see why she is itching so much. I've been walking Cuddles every other day at the Park, I make sure I wash her paws and comb her hair and still my Mom is itching like ...

Thanks to everyone for the compliments! I think what helped is Cuddles park buddy friend is in training. The gal I walk her with takes her dog every Wednesday for classes. You all did a wonderful job on give me SUPPORT and HELP :D Cuddles park buddy Mommy helped me put it into practice. We walk them...

Hi All, Since becomming a memeber on this forum 4 months ago?? My Cuddles has come a long way with training! She is on a 20ft. lead for training when she's in the park. She's knows STAY, and even when plugging on the leash she DOEN'T move. She STAYS! She knows WAIT...There a TWO dogs and one is agre...

Thanks All,

I'll try the wipes and see what happens. It's worth a shot that is for sure!

Okay, So, by using baby wipes it will remove the allergians. I hope so. One more other thing is that Cuddles has that Cava Poo hair and after her roll in the grass she gets these little burros stuck in her fur :( I brush her like crazy and even pull gently to take them out, I am thinking that those ...

A bath would remove any allergens, dander, etc. on her skin. If Cuddles' fur is really dense and waterproof (like a Poodle's), baby wipes or waterless shampoo aren't gonna cut it, but you could use those products on her paws. :) Wicket, I think Cuddles has a cross mix of Cavalier Spaniel hair and p...

Hi Everyone! I have a Cava Poo and I walk her EVERYDAY at the park. The problem is my Mom is allergic to grass and it seems that she is becoming extremeley itchy when petting Cuddles. After our walks, I brush Cuddles, but that doesn't seem to be working? Anything else I can do? I am wondering if giv...

Hi Maixmoo!

Cuddles, park buddy's Mom said the same thing. Not to be concerned as dogs are sturdy and are made for cold wheather.

How is Max doing? I hope he is doing good

Thanks again,

Kalo
