Since nobody with Poodle experience has signed up, I will do my best using my general knowledge of dogs. I do know that they are valued as service dogs because of their lack of the dander than causes most dog allergies. I have experience and training through my volunteer work with a large dog guide school in modern, proven methods. The service dog schools have acquired a wealth of knowledge about raising well behaved, healthy dogs with long, active lives. They do not share it with the general public, but pass on the best of it to those like me that raise puppies for them. I am part of a group that has raised dogs for 6 different service dog schools. We meet monthly and share information. Please don't send me medical or breeding questions. An internet forum is not the appropriate place for them. Even if I could tell what was wrong from a handful of symptoms, you would still need to get the medications from your local vet. Breeding should be left to those not needing to ask simple, basic questions. Books have been written about it. Rather than ask me a question, start reading. Those unwilling to do the work it takes to produce quality puppies should spay/neuter their pets at 6 months.

You may have to endure even more hunger. Many dogs will wolf down more than is good for them and look for more. Others refuse to eat more than than they need. Evaluate the dog as illustrated in this link
One must not impose our human morals on dogs. Procreation is an important part of being human. Dogs and other animals are different. Due to carelessness, greed, and misunderstanding of dogs, we breed
Dietary problems are rare if a dog is eating a commercial dog food and little else. If they are getting a lot of other stuff, cut back on it. It could be allergies, but unlikely more than one dog. Too
Perhaps rather than me, you need to be talking to a different vet. In some ways, the continuing problems suggest some sort of a blockage, the twisted intestine or a foreign object. Has your vet done
I really think it is a matter of her realizing the carpeted area is now part of her den and she shouldn't foul it. Spend lots of time with her there and keep a close eye on her. When you see the signs
