What To Do When Your Poodle Gets Away From You In A Strange Place

If your Poodle gets away from you in a strange place and is disoriented follow these steps:
Stay Calm
Don't scream your Poodle's name, they pick up on your fearful emotions through your voice tone and this sends them into a fear response which leads to flight mode. Call your Poodle's name in a calm voice but loud enough for your Poodle to here you.
Squat down and call your Poodle in a calm happy tone.
Walk slowly toward your Poodle. 
If your dog is not leashed ask for someone to go get a leash that you can slip over your dogs head
If your dog starts to run ask the person who is most capable of keeping an eye on your dog to run after him/her. Go get your car and follow in your car.
Always good to drill this before you are doing it in real life.
