THINK POODLES ARE TOO "FROO-FROO?" Is it a Poodle or a Doodle? - Oodles of Doodles Rescue Collective2024-03-29T14:05:34Zhttp://www.doodlerescuecollective.com/forum/topics/think-poodles-are-too-froofroo?commentId=2747693%3AComment%3A27981&feed=yes&xn_auth=noThis is a really interesting…tag:www.doodlerescuecollective.com,2009-06-30:2747693:Comment:336312009-06-30T01:04:13.992ZJenny Jacksonhttp://www.doodlerescuecollective.com/profile/JennyJackson
This is a really interesting discussion. My Tessa, when clipped short, is often mistaken for a poodle. She has a glorious black nose that's so big. When having a closer look, people think, ah Ok, that's a doodle something or other. Her fluffy tail and funny John Wayne swagger also give her away. She's a clown indeed! Some say aloof but I call it "carefree." My brother calls her Goliath... she often falls in the lake from tumbling over her huge poodley legs. I just adore her curly coat and lanky…

She is so unique... in fact, most doodles I have met look so different from each other, it's so lovely to see that.<br />

I am not totally sold on the "idea" around doodle breeding - hybrid vigor and the like, but I have to say they have won a special place in my heart. I can't help but recommending this breed to all ages! The personality, the fluff, the heart and the laughs they bring is just incredible.<br />

My dear friend has 3 male, black, standard poodles and when they are left long for the winter they look like doodles! Only when they visit the groomer can you finally see they are pure poods. They are all so great, so loving and HUGE! haha. unfortunately, like others have said here, the haircut can make a dog... some people are put off by the so called "Froo froo" of the poodle cut but get to know one and they are just fabulous. Brains and personalities to boot!<br />
<br />
Like any breed, the personality, the fur cut and the reputation are all in the eye of the beholder! I love my doodle Tessa and want everyone to know! :)<br />

The picture is of Tessa a few weekends ago. Her fur is growing back after a poodle type groom, one of which I wasn't expecting. We've all been through that I know! Anyway, she's gorgeous and cooler!
