Oh, I used to feel the same way! I used to groom and I hated doing the poodles!! They can be so much work, and I'm a perfectionist and had such a hard time with their heads! Then I met my husband and his sister had an apricot poodle (Aly's Reece reminds me of him so) Toto (RB now) and he turned me around, too.
There are still breeds that I don't particularly like that are probably just bias' from my grooming days.
