Cindy’d still chase down a chipmunk and eat it if given half a chance.

Might be some out-dated prescriptions involved. Somebody awards awards for this?

For a lab, yes it would be humiliating. But not for a poodle.

at Easter a number of years back you could walk into a “dime” store and purchase, brightly colored live chicks,
that I believe was what led to the banning of not only selling the chicks but also of the dying, something about blinding the animals.

I don't know about you, but "Cindy" looks like a male in this pic:

But hey, I'm no expert, and that might have been before 'the surgery'...

Poodles are patient, smart, and show great compassion and loyalty towards their owners. Unfortunately, their owners take advantage and make fools of them!

Without a doubt these are very creative, but...

I just showed them to my German Shepherd, “Greta”. She looked at them, turned her head to one side, looked at them again, turned her head the other way, looked at them again, then looked at me with a puzzled look on her face.

To me, that says it all. I don’t much like poodles, but no dog should suffer THAT sort of humiliation. That’s just evil.

Greta is hiding under the table, hoping that I haven’t gotten any ideas...
