i have a mini dachshund and a papillon, and they both know this type of word too xD we say "who's that!? who's that~?" and they go nuts xD i find it cute to see dogs do that ;3
She's 100% Papillon. Registered and pedigreed. She's definitely larger than most, though some of that comes from her stealing her brother's food. We try to keep that to a minimum, but he hardly eats a thing.
My 4 months pap has been scratching his ears a lot the last few days. He shakes his head, scratches his ears, even whines a little. We took him to the vet and they could not find anything. They sedated him so they can look into both ears carefully and his ears are clean, no water, no mite, no wax, absolutely clean. Could it be that the itching come from the new hair grown in and around his ears at 4-5 months of age? Do you have that experience with your pap when they were pups?
I can't say we've had that experience. The only thing even close to that was a spider bite (happened twice). Sophie got really itchy for a day and her face swelled up. A few very low doses of Benadryl did the trick.
If the vet doesn't find anything, I'd let it be. If you get the sense that scratching his ears feels good, then give his ears a little extra attention. I'm sure everything's fine (but I'm no vet, so don't take this as medical advice! :) ).

Yes, I recall you getting him. I've heard 6-10 lb. and 8-12 lb. from different sources. Sophie is fully (over)grown at ~14 lb., and Max is now 8-1/2 months old and he's roughly 4.5 lb. and will probably barely reach five. Check the weights of the parents. That's a good indicator. It seem (though I have no evidence) that smaller litters produce smaller dogs, and vice versa. Sophie came from a litter of 4. Max was a litter of 1. So there you have it :)
Question, my wife and I visited a friend that had a female papillon. Gorgeous dog and what we loved about is that when she walks, she actually prance... really classy and cute. Is that normal for paps, that they prance?
Papillon's are especially prone to prancing when they're really happy. It's almost like they want to break out in a run, but they're trying to control themselves, and the end result is a lively little step that is very much a trademark of this and a few other breeds. They are wonderful, intelligent, VERY low maintenance dogs. I highly recommend considering one.
Sophie is 2-1/2. We got her when she was 11 weeks old. She's large for the breed, mostly because her parents were large, and she tends to get into Max's food as well as her own (we feed them in their crates now).
She was a very easy puppy to raise, and she is an absolute angel. :)
Congratulations - upload a video sometime soon! Make the decision now whether he gets to sleep on the bed or not (ours do). Once you decide, there's no going back ;)
I live in an apartment and I am crate training him now. I don't mind him sleeping on my bed at all but the problem is, soon he will have to be without us in a crate for about 4 hours a day in the morning. So we are trying to get him used to the crate so he doesn't cream and yell when alone at home. Needless to say, my wife and I have been sleepless the last two nights :)) Super smart puppy and he's so attached... follows my wife everywhere around the house, stays close to her feet.
When we trained Sophie and Max, we found it was perfectly fine to let them on the bed during crate training. YMMV, but it worked fine for us. They seem to associate the crate with their humans leaving, without any confusion. Max and Sophie bolt into their crates when they see us putting on shoes or coats. They know when it's time to go to their rooms. :)
Excellent point, we will try it. If the dog associates crate to us leaving, that would be wonderful. We named him Mickey, he is very attached to my wife.
Gorgeous dog and wonderful KITTY too! Do they play together, or did they when they were little? I noticed that your cat in the video followed you around-- terribly sweet. You have raised really great pets!
The kitties were part of the household long before we got dogs. They adapted to each other really well. Unfortunately, both of our cats developed a bad case of FLUTD. Sometimes, they survive and live pretty normal lives. Our kitties were tortured horribly by the disease. Many vet visits, tests and exploratory surgeries later, we had to let them go :( So it's just the two puppies now.
I spend most of the year at college but my parents always tell me how any mention of "Sissy" sends our papillon, Kirby, racing to the door and whining and crying. Poor baby! Sometimes, he'll run into their bedroom and stare at the giant self-portrait I painted years ago. He knows it's Sissy!
hehe my papillion is the same. I like '' anyone coming ?'' he like WOOOT?! <.< runs to the door BARKING his ASS off! ^^ So funny :) Same thing when someone Knocks/Ring the doorbell :P
Very cute. Mine understands English pretty well too. They are so much fun. I have one video of him on my youtube account. I'll be adding a few more of him.
the cat =)

I have a three a half months old papillon. How large to they get when full grown? Twice the size they are now or more?

My puppy is now about 4.2 pounds. He is much smaller than his other two siblings. I hope he doesn't get much more than 7 pounds.

I also love the fact that they are free (almost) of that doggie odor. Perfect for an apartment dweller like myself. I am looking for one now...
wonton00 3 years ago
Yes - no smell or oily hair at all. We didn't realize this until after we got our first one, but it's definitely a bonus :)
