Poodles are Manly
According to Ted, anyway.
What's the explanation for their annoying yappy-ness?
Posted by Jennifer at February 12, 2004 03:06 PMMostly their small size. Like any other breed, there are barky individuals and ones less so. Some big dogs won't shut up either, but nobody calls them 'yappy'.
Short version: a dog is a dog is a dog. :)
Posted by: Ted at February 12, 2004 03:15 PMFor a full-size poodle, it's probably that silly-looking hairdo. Yes, I've heard it was designed to help them swim (they were bred for hunting, as retrievers), but if so why don't other breeds get treated to it?
