If you want a breed that is beautiful, smart, clean, nonshedding, nonsmelly, easy to get along with,
a good house dog, a watchdog and a good retreiver, then the poodle is the breed for you.
They have long life spans and are usually robust till the very end.
The only drawbacks to the poodle breed is the regualr grooming needed and that they just might be
smarter than you!
Poodles are not "SISSY" dogs. I know it is hard to get past the fluffy, fru-fru exterior, but there
are various different poodle hair cuts to choose from.
The poodle was bred as a water retrieval dog. And they can retrieve just as well as labs and
goldens.
Poodles are so tuff that they have been used as a sled dog team in the Montan Creek,Alaska, seven
day race.
Poodles are very versitle. They do well in conformation, agility, and obedience. Poodles
are also being used as search and rescue dogs, handicap assistance dogs, therapy dogs, and seeing eyed dogs. They also
excell at being loving, loyal pets in the home. So if you call that a "SISSY" dog, you may want to look at the deffinition
of the word "SISSY"!
