all of the poodles on this site look marvelous! I hate the show clip where the top knot is pulled so tightly the doggy looks like he/she has had too many face lifts-the Joan Rivers look!!
The clip was designed to protect the joints from the water when the poodle would swim. The worst clip I have seen is the flower sculpted look-the lady trimmed the dog to have flowers and vines and then she took food colouring and made the hair flowers bright pink and the vines green! ugh!!! she should have done topiary not doggies.
