Full of puppy energy

Name: Luka

Breed: Medium poodle

Age: 11 weeks

Owner: Paula Melartin, Espoo, Finland

Temperament:

Luka is a lively, energetic and brave poodle puppy. Luka always wants to explore his surroundings and so far there has been nothing that he's afraid of – though he was a little shy in the early days. He likes sleeping at someone's feet. Almost anyone's feet will do if no family members are around.

Hobbies:

Luka loves jumping in the snow and running around with toys. His family will take him to Rally Obedience and agility training as soon as it’s safe for his development.

Luka's life:

An energetic quick learner, Luka has settled in well at his new home, even if the family’s two bichon frisé males, now aged 6 and 7, were somewhat flustered by his arrival. Luka entertains the whole family with his antics during the day. He is very active and always finds new things, both allowed and forbidden, to keep himself busy. If Luka is home alone, it’s best to hide the winter boots. On one of his first days at his new home, he tried to wriggle head first into a boot so that only his hind legs and tail could be seen. There he was, head and front legs stuck inside a boot!

A puppy’s well-being

The basis for a dog’s well-being is laid out at a young age. When caring for a puppy, special attention must be paid to the quality of food and exercise – whether you are bringing up your little friend to be a family dog, a show star or an active companion for hobbies.
