Lol my Rufus, a poodle, and a cousin of Duck Dynasty wants to knw what you meant in you reference to poodles.
People do not know the history of Poodles.
They were once bird dogs of great renown and have been used by the French as police dogs.
A Standard Poodle is not to be trifled with.
They are intelligent and can be quite ferocious.
Most only see the “silly haircut”, which was actually a very efficient means of both creating buoyancy in the water while insulating the dog’s joints from the cold.
My first dog was a Miniature Poodle and if you messed with me, she would bite you.
When I later got Dobes, she ran them like rented mules.
They backed down from her every single time.
