Tuck is my second Standard Poodle after being introduced to the breed by 'Belle' Her 52 weeks has is on this forum. I have been in purebred breeds and the conformation show scene for 40 years. I have never owned or been owned by a Poodle, altho' I have stalked them ringside for many years. Why it took me so long I will never know, but I do know
I will never be without one from here on out. Totally infatuated with the breed. I understand why they are #5 on the List of most favorite breeds, but that scares me for the future of the breed.
Here is 'Tuck' at age of 5 or 6 weeks, before he came to me.

What is this? I ask. Since when? Plus terrible manners and very lazy.

Tuck is now six months old. Not sure what to do with his coat. He looks like a big Polar Bear roaming the house. I have been looking at youtube videos for puppy clips. I didn't want to cut it too short someplace because of a show next month and I knew it wouldn't have time to grow over the mistake.
Here are a few different photos of my husband holding him as you have seen plenty of him with four on the floor. I was trying to get all four paws facing out so you could see the adorable paws which have remained black.

And there is his Doberpal wondering if everything is okay.

What a handsome Floof Tuck is! I hope we get a show update.

I think Doberpals (love that term!) always wonder if everything is ok. It's part of what makes them so charming and such good pals to 4-legged and 2-legged friends.

Beautiful!!!! That deep chest and lean reminds me of my late Doberman, Levi. What is the age difference? The Dobe exudes "This is MY Tuck."

Tuck is such a handsome boy - I hope you post show photos soon!

Whew, I'm back. When I sent that photo my keyboard quit on me. Only a few letter worked, thus the luck instead of Tuck. Crazy and I couldn't respond. How can a computer mess up your life completely and disrupt everything.

So, 'Ruff and Fluff' ( love it) were watching at the bathroom door while I groomed their BBF, Belle. Very worried they were and watched me like that a good hour.

Had a show in Logan, Ut yesterday for the Doberman and I took Tuck to get a good feel of the outdoor show scene. I had groomed him the day before and he was a vision. On the way up he got car sick (first time ever he got sick) and the layed in it. So my beautiful pup was a mess and I wasn't able to show him off.

I will sneak a few Doberman photos even if it is a Poodle forum.

@Silverbelle .... Bodhi just about brought tears to my eyes. May I have another Doberman again who lives as long as my late Levi. Such a wonderful breed. Such beautiful minds and dutiful, tender hearts. What a lucky boy Tuck is! :love:

Ah Terra, I know what you mean. This is our fifth Doberman. Our first two have passed and we still can't talk about them without tears. They live in your heart forever.
Tuck has a bodyguard and Rush has a fluffy pillow.

And this is the way we do our dishes, do our dishes, do our dishes....
These two feel it their duty to watch out for me. If I am at the computer they are stationed behind my chair. Here at the sink they prop me up. If I forget about them and turn suddenly and step back I fall on my face.
