I'm a cross over from another breed. I show a smooth coated toy breed and have been for the past 8 years. I've shown at AKC shows for 18 years and always said "I'll never own one of those floofy dogs!" BUT then I went to a show and there was a standard poodle there that was so striking and gorgeous I couldn't stop looking at him. I decided I HAD to have one! Then I found a breeder and went to her house, walked in and there he was (only in miniature). I new at first sight I would not be able to leave her house without him. He will be shown for the first time at Premier (UKC) next month! I'm really trying to learn grooming because I have NEVER had a hairy dog that needed to be groomed! But I'm learning
Thanks for the welcome! I look forward to learning lots!
