They come out like silk and no mats, and trimming and styling is a breeze. Sorry that you didn't enjoy her as much as you should have. As far as her being a hunting dog, I never heard of anyone saying that about poodles, but then a lot of people don't let their dogs off leash to run wild either. Poodles were my first love and I bred them many years ago, perfect solid chocolate mini's. They were smart as a whip and you could teach them anything. Perhaps you dog had some brain issues, cause it is not common for the breed to be dumb and untrainable. > >Do you remember the show ''I Dream of Jeannie" she had a dog named Gin-Gin, >that's what we named my first born male poodle and he was stunning and >incredibly smart! > > > > > > >-------Original Message------- > >From: [email protected] >Date: 8/8/2012 5:35:52 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: [Chihuahuas] Re:COYOTE STUFF > >It was hard on me to come home to no Miki...
