• Registration, and the age the puppy has to reach first

  Applies in Guwahati, set by the Guwahati Municipal Corporation

  The Guwahati Municipal Corporation states that pet dog registration is compulsory under the GMC Act and that failing to register is a punishable violation. Only pets above three months of age qualify, registration runs on forms prescribed under the 1975 byelaws, a photograph of the owner with the pet is taken at the time of registration, and the registration is renewed every year.

  What that means when you collect the puppy. The three-month floor is the part to plan around. A puppy collected at eight or nine weeks cannot be registered on the day it arrives, so diarise the date it turns three months rather than assuming the paperwork is done. You will need to be there in person for the photograph, so it is not something you can delegate.

  What to put on the form — and why “Giant” will not do. This is the one place where the words matter more than usual. There is no Giant Poodle variety to write down: the Kennel Club and the American Kennel Club recognise Standard, Miniature and Toy, and nothing else. A large dog sold to you as a Giant Poodle is a Standard Poodle, and Standard Poodle is what belongs on a registration form, a vaccination card and any pedigree. If a seller hands you paperwork that says Giant Poodle as though it were a breed, that tells you something about the seller rather than about the dog.

• Damp air and a coat that holds it

  Whatever the dog was advertised as, it is a Standard Poodle, and it has the most coat of any Poodle variety to dry. At around 85% humidity in September, that is the practical consequence of the size you were sold: more coat, more drying, more brushing to the skin.

• The cold weeks, and clip length

  Coat volume helps in the January cold, around 3°C on average here, but a close clip cancels that out. Time the clip to the season.

Figures are monthly means from NASA POWER climatology (MERRA-2), 20-year Meteorological and Solar Monthly & Annual Climatologies (January 2001 - December 2020) for 26.18, 91.75. They describe a normal year, not a forecast, and what follows from them here is coat and routine planning rather than veterinary advice.
