Never in a million years did I think I would ever want a poodle.... but then a good friend moved to NYC and I was asked to keep his dog, as we couldn't see this pup as a city dog. A poodle? Clickety-click nails on bare floors? Not my idea of a dog. LOL. But what a loyal companion he was. Always wanted to be wherever I was. Closing the bathroom door meant having him crying on the other side until I reappeared; then it was all 'smiles' and energy again. I had a baby while I had him and he was completely tolerant of all the things babies/toddlers do.

One of life's pleasant surprises, that dog.

For me, any mutt will do as long as they are soft and warm and cuddly!
