Sue I am glad we didn't scare you away. I would love to hear more about your dogs and see some pictures if I may. I started out with poodles in 1970 (two toy apricots) then in 1984 got a silver mini and finally in 1986 got a black standard. When my last poodle passed away hubby told me "No more dogs because it is too hard when they pass away." Well, in 2001 I really missed running my fingers through poodle curls and found a breeder and went out and bought Bella, a white standard. In 2003 I found Ripley (black mini) in an animal shelter in terrible condition (matted, etc.). Long story short (is it too late for that?LOL! ) I am back to having poodles in my life. I understand what you are saying when you mention your *favorite breed." I share that view.

In order to post pictures you must first upload them to a photo sharing site on the web like Imagestation or Photobucket. If you get that far we'd all be glad to help you from there. It's not hard really - especially if I can do it!

What part of Pa. are you in? I grew up in suburban Philadelphia.
