Prepare for unexpected vet bills
While this breed of dog is not going to be easy to fill out on your vet forms, they are going to be loving family pets that add so much fun to your home life. They are a cross between a Russian Tsvetnaya Blonka and a Poodle, making them small in size but large in character. They are also intelligent, love other pets and people, and have a deceivingly loud bark to alert you to people entering your property. The Tsvetnaya Blonka also originates from the Bichon family, meaning they are a relaxed, non-aggressive dog that is perfect for first-time dog owners. However, they still need both mental and physical stimulation to keep them happy and healthy. Here are a few things you and your Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo can do together.Â
If there’s one activity you need to incorporate into your Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo’s routine from a young age, it’s grooming. Thanks to the Tsvetnaya Blonka parentage, this pooch will need twice-monthly baths and plenty of grooming to keep their long coat tangle-free and healthy. Thankfully, grooming is an activity (it's of average difficulty) that can bring you and your dog closer together. It also only takes an hour with a brush, comb, scissors, de-matter and bath products, while being suitable to carry out in any weather. It can be a significant investment in the beginning, but once you own all the products, it’s far more affordable than regular trips to the groomer.Â
When it’s raining outside, you may find it hard to entertain your Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo. Fortunately, their Poodle parentage makes it possible to teach them new skills without too much effort or training. Teaching your Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo to beg is one of them. Set aside 10 minutes twice per day for as long as it takes with a handful of treats. You will be pleased to know that teaching your dog to beg is free and will entertain both you and your fluffy friend. It can also lead to new tricks once you get the pattern of consistency nailed down.Â
People could often teach Poodles how to jump through hoops with relative success, which is why it makes sense to teach your Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo to do the same. In any weather, you can set up an area in or outside your home with a hula hoop and a pocket full of treats. In 10-minute training sessions a few times a day, you can then teach them how to jump through a ring on your command. It’s affordable, won’t take all that much of your time, and your dog will master it with relative ease. What’s more, it can open the doors for many other skills they may like to learn at a later date.Â
A Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo is a small dog with a relatively low need for physical activity. As a result, a walk is more than enough to keep them happy. Their legs are also short, so instead of a one-hour walk for a large dog, you can get away with three 20-minute trips or two half-hour ones. Â
If your family is having a lazy day, then don’t let your Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo become bored! Instead, treat them to a few chew toys they can play with for hours. You will be pleased to know there are many options on the market – especially for small dogs. Treat them to a basket and load it up with toys that will always be available when your family doesn’t have time to entertain them. Â
If you’re a first-time dog owner with impeccable spelling, then you will enjoy adopting a Tsvetnaya Blonka-Poo. This small, affectionate, loving, and loyal lapdog is one that will become the light of your life. Even though they don’t have a significant need for exercise, you may still enjoy treating them to mentally and physically stimulating tasks. Start dog ownership on the right paw with these activities above.Â
