Hi Frank ; I wish we could show our poodles but both my wife and I are too busy running www.lovemypoodle.com and having fun . It`s almost a full time job traveling and grooming just to be competetive now days (exept for the rich) . We have a eighteen month mini female that is primarly black but brindled with white and silver named Coco . She is very curious . We also have a eighteen month toy male poodle named Toffee that is solid brown and is show quality . Both parents champions . My wife and I decided at fourty-five to get out of the rat race and start a dot com that would be fun and we could take days off and work only when we wanted to . We both left significant jobs behind and wished we had done this ten years earlier . Life is sweet ! Going to Maui in two weeks !
