Bad dog.
Very sad indeed, that dog doesn't look a day over 5 (in human years of course). You will have to hide your password now.

And it just gets worse, now I find out that her brother was involved. I guess I better hide the keys to the Vette as well.



Oh the shame...................

You definitely need to nip it, nip it in the bud. And for gods sake do something about the "brothers" afro.

Anyhow, we found out that one toy poodle gets into waaaaaay too much trouble on it's own so we decided to get it a companion to keep it busy so we got the little black male who has been labeled my dog. I was watching Gladiator when I named him, I had just gotten to the part where Russell Crowe reveals himself and the name came to me, Poodilicus Meridius Maximus,
we call him Max for short. In my mind, if you're going to have a Poodle, then do it right. Since he was "my" dog, he gets cut "my" way. He has the big pompadour, long ears, furry tennis ball tail. Yes, he gets beat up by the other neighborhood dogs, but he looks like a poodle.

We had been a Cocker Spaniel family for about 14 years. When we lost our last one, SHE decided that we needed a small dog. Well, these two are Teacup miniatures. 4lb and 5 lb each. The Apricot one is Twinkles and the black one is Natasha (Tashi for short). The black one is the killer of the group. The Apricot one is as timid as a rock. VERY smart dogs.

I still want a big ol slobbery Basset Hound just to lay around the shop an howl every once in a while. LOL

If I ever have to get another dog, it will be a sliver standard Poodle. People just don't realize how smart these animals are, they are the second most intelligent breed only behind the Border Collie. Their intelligence makes them a great companion. And yes, this is how I like my Poodles to look.

John, do you know how to cut their hair? Looks like that thing requires lots of preventive maintenance.

Yes I do as a matter of fact. It's like owning a C5 and needing to have floor mats installed, you call some one that can do it right and get your checkbook out.

Took this guy 28 days to get them right and they are not right yet. Notice the gap around the seats 0:12.

It was wet, going up the hill on a steep off cambered curve with big sway bars and lowered didnt help. If we do that route, it has to be coming down.

Jon, I grew up with poodles during my adolescent and teen years. They are very good dogs and make wonderful companions. I was jk about the doo. It sounded a lot funnier after my 3rd margarita that night. My wife and I have always had dogs and for the past 20+ years have had boxers and Chihuahua's.

You think I was offended

Come on now, you all should know better than that. I don't ever get offended, and the abuse that goes on here should prove that
