    I'm pretty sure poodles rank second as the most intelligent dog breeds behind border collies. They're meant to be raelly good retrievers too - just hearsay though

    Tough ass Russian retriever IIRC.
    Labradoodles not my cup of tea but I bet if someone could get over the thought of owning one and put some time in they would be pretty freeking good.

    Like owning a plastic 7mm08
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out

    I'm pretty sure the standard poodle gets it's stupid looking hair cut style, when they where good retrievers they shaved there legs so they didn't stay wet and get arthritis in there joints . As for the bit on it's head I'm sure that came latter when gay hair dresses started owning them ! not duck shooters !I used to own a Curley coated retriever and my mate used to call it a poodle ( wankers ) it used to piss me off ! , but pretended it didn't ! . He was a soft cock which didn't help matters .

    Mate of mine has a labradoodle that is a fantastic hunter. In fact if he was as good a dog handler as he isn't he would never come home empty handed
