Hi! Just joined. I have been looking for an active poodle forum for awhile. I've belonged to Yorkie boards for years but could never find a poolde forum! I googled "poodle forum" and here I am!
I have been involved with toy dogs all my life (although I admire Standard Poodles from a far!

). My first dog (while still in my mother's womb) was a toy poodle named Button (he had a fancy show name but I was far too young to recolect what that was!). Then came Annie, Cossette, Trevor and now our youngest is 14 month old Phoebe.
Phoebe competes in UKC conformation and has her UKC championship. I am now training her for dog agility (I have a Yorkie with a MACH so Phoebe is not my first agility dog and I'd be happy to answer any questions folks might have about agility/showing).
I've posted a link to Phoebe's Youtube training videos below:
(she's a fast little black blurr - so don't blink!)

My avatar is of Phoebe's mom - an apricote. Phoebe's is a little difficult to photograph because she is SO black. I have photos of my other kids and their pals on my gallery pages of my website:

I run Mighty Mite Dog Gear which is a website that specializes in training and showing equipment for dog show people as well as people interested in dog sports like agility, flyball, obedience, etc. While a good majority of the products are geared for mini and toy poodles - there are also "all dog" products like shampoos and soft dog crates/ dog tents (my friend's Standard Poodle MayDay - who sadly passed over the rainbow bridge this past year -was one of the dogs who helped me develop the dog tents. Mayday was a poodle who was ranked among the top poodles in USDAA agility competition and was his mom's muse, she a pro photographer. He was full of exuberence and love of life and his passing has touched us all. He was a great "Test" dog for the tents because of his Royal size and his forever wagging tail

).
Glad to meet you all!
