I've only ever owned a Labrador Retriever, which of course has very short fur, and am seriously considering getting a miniature poodle as my next pet. Does anyone think I'll regret that decision as we enjoy taking many walks in rural areas - forests, wherever....will we be driven crazy trying to get rid of burrs?
I know a poodle will need to be clipped, but I'm remembering that even with a short-haired Lab we frequently needed to vacuum as they shed a surprising amount....
I'd really appreciate any thoughts you have on this. As you know, choosing a pet is a huge decision and I want to make the right one.
Many thanks in advance.
