Tanya: I'm so happy to hear that. I probably would never have even thought about getting a poodle but Reece just stole my heart. They are really very smart and VERY eager to please. He is so gentle and gets along with any other animal. The only problem I've ever had with him is seperation anxiety but that is getting better and better. He has been accepted into a Pet Therapy group and will start doing that in July. He is the PERFECT dog for that because he loves to greet people and he makes everyone smile. When you pick him up, he leans his whole body against your chest and puts his head on your shoulder. He has such a way of brightening a day.
