Cute little ball of fluff.

I like my poodles pure, but it seems that poodle mixes are geting pretty common on the ground these days.

Mike,

Yours look like "real" Poodles, not like the ones with ducks disease (where their ass is to close to the ground.)

I quite like Standard Poodles provided they are not to "poofie" looking.

It's the small man syndrome with the Toys (and some Minatures) I am not keen about.
Cheers

Rick,

All three are Standards. Strides is pushing 70lbs, Winnie 40+ and Mercy is about 35lbs, and probably just makes it as a Standard.

We don't allow ours to look too poofie but because they don't shed, they have to be groomed and groomers can get carried away if you let them. But a well groomed poodle, like our old (deceased) Magic can look very good. And people love seeing them; it does not hurt that they are also such people friendly dogs. But poodles, males in particular, can be unfriendly towards other dogs.

Mike,

Tell me something I don't know! Sam, my (almost 14 year old) large Toy has been known to run out of the shop and bail up a 50kg Rottie. As he has pulled that stunt on many occasions, I am surprised he is still alive to tell the story.

Very cute Ric. I'm sure he's going to settle right in and be very well loved and make lots of sales.
Cheers,
