He's caught onto sign language very quickly, and has been learning a lot by just watching the other dog. Another consideration is that they're both very bonded to me and my housesitters have a hard time getting them to eat when I go away. I'll never be without Poodles again. Poodles are not just for decoration. Many people use all three sizes in competitions like conformation, agility, and flyball to name a few.
Many Poodles are avid hunters and retrievers.
They make excellent rescue dogs, and are perfectly happy being a lap dog for the couch potatoe kind of human. Poodles think they are human, they love their owners faithfully and want to be with them. Poodles do not shed. Many allergic people find they can tolerate beautiful breed. Willing to play, cuddle, or simply snooze by your feet.
