OOOOOOOH Oodles of Poodles I am sooo happy to finally meet Gannie and Riley!! What beautiful dogs they are!! Thank you so much Anna for helping in the posting process! Your Riley almost brought tears to my eyes. My first standard poodle was a black girl named Whitney. She was, you could say, my heart dog. It seemed she understood everthing without even a word being uttered, and she lived only to please her humans. Her life was cut short at 8 years of age when we all returned from work one evening to find her dead on the sofa. The vet felt it was a heart attack although she had never shown signs of heart trouble on any of his exams. I never got to say goodbye to my sweetie and I think that's why the tears are always close to the surface when her name, or a photo such as Riley's comes up.

Back to your pups! - Do you do your own grooming? My hubby and I have groomed our poodles over the years and only recently have started using a groomer for our Bella. It is extremely time consuming (as you know!) and we have only ever groomed them in the puppy clip. I can't imagine the time it must take to do one of the show clips! Your dogs are both awesome and I would love to see more and more of them!!! Thanks again Anna!
