Standard Poodles | Standard Poodle Blog

They took me to the groomer today and left me for 5 hours. It was kinda scary but in the end I came out looking like a handsome poodle. We also saw the vet last week and he said I was in great shape and to keep on wrestling with my sister. Last week I weighed 23 lb 7 oz.

After my haircut I look like I weigh 5 pounds, but I am much cooler and will track a lot less dirt and grass into the house.

Gumbo

I don’t have any kids, but I remember some days when I was a kid and all I seemed to do was get in trouble. Today is one of those days for these two poodles. We can’t really blame Gumbo, all he really does is follow Creole’s lead, but they both seem to have a mind of their own today and don’t listen to anything we tell them to or not to do.

Of course we still love them and no, we do not beat them (tempting as it might be sometimes). I guess it is just one of those days when they want to do what they want to do and nothing else. They are currently in time out and are amazingly quiet. They know they are in trouble. Maybe the second half of the day will be better.
