I suppose this is the wrong thread to say that I was raising and training hunting poodles in the 60s.
Poodles are a good all-round dog, also. The only problem is that they do tend to be a bit headstrong. You have to be smarter than your dog.
These are not mine, of course, as I closed that business in 1963, when I moved to Alaska.
