Thanks everyone chokka has been renamed to chewbacca. He is doing great, she says he is a wonderful dog. He checked out fine at the vet, he never did come down with kennel cough like we feared, he sneezes sometimes, the vet says it may be allergies.

Pam, my friend wants to attempt grooming at home, can you recommend some good sheers?

Do you mean electric clippers? I have an Oster and have had it for quite some time. I have been thinking of getting another one so that I can trade off when the Oster heats up a little and looked into the Andis clippers. They are about the same price. The nice thing is that the blades are inter-changeable. There are several companies that make clippers and some are very pricey. There is a very old thread here somewhere about the various kinds of clippers from back when I was deciding what to do (which I still haven't done yet ). Maybe Amy (WolfQ) or Jen Luckenback can offer some suggestions since they are professional groomers.
If you meant sheers, as in scissors, I have been using a few that were my mother-in-law's (she was a hairdresser). The dogs don't know the difference.
Thanks Pam, yes I mean electric clippers. I remember reading that Andis were good.
She just called to tell me her neighbors have complained that he barks all day why she is at work. She keeps him outside but he has a basement area he can go to get shelter.
I told her to try to keep him in a laundry room during the day to see how he does. I also gave her a crate to try out when she first got him.

I am not sure why she doesn't keep him inside, it may be fear of what he will do. Its not bad now but it does get cold here and very hot in the summer. The shelter said 3 but based on his teeth I thought he may be a little older but he has a lot of spunk. He is housebroken, I am not sure about how he would do for 8 hours though. My dogs have pretty strong bladders.

I am not a fan of leaving a dog outside for many reasons. A person in the next town from me had a dog stolen right out of her yard and, as you mention, the weather is an issue. Maybe she will give him little "tests" where she can leave him for short periods of time and see what he does or doesn't get into. She could also try the crate, but if he is 3 years old and never been crated he might put up a fuss. I crated Ripley in the beginning and he didn't like it one little bit. Somehow he even cut his nose on the crate. At the least could she maybe gate him in the kitchen? Even if he continues to bark, at least it won't be as loud and less bothersome to the neighbor.
I'm not a fan either Pam, maybe this is a blessing. Maybe he will get to stay in the house.

Chewbacca is gorgeous!! I love Standard Poodles. I would love to adopt one but don't think we will anytime soon. Our life is full of moves and travels that one dog is plenty. Two would be very challenging.
I hope Chewey finds his way indoors soon while his mommy is at work
