Twice today at puppy/dog social I was asked "does your poodle shed"? NO!
The question came from an owner of a poodle/bernaise (spelling) mountain dog and the othe from either a labradoodle or goldendoodle (not sure which). What really surprised me was both had already asked me if Abbey was a purebred poodle, so the follow up "does your poodle shed" was kind of shocking. They seemed genuinely convinced that some poodles do in fact shed, I tried to educate in a nice way. They were nice people and the dogs were also nice dogs, but they must have got a real line of bull from the breeders.
