Interesting comment about doodles by a dog trainer

[Jodi and Stella]

Stella recently started an advanced obedience class with a trainer that is new to us. (I really like him a lot) Scott, our trainer, has had several years experience in the field. He was telling me that he has never seen a breed of dog that has such an extreme range of behaviors than doodles. Meaning that the doodles he has seen without training have been so unruly and out of control and the ones that have had training are some of the best dogs he has encountered. He said doodles will respond to training quicker than many other dogs. I would like to think Stella is in the "good doodle" category!

This is so interesting. It makes all the sense in the world though. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, Carol.

Really interesting!  Thanks very much!  Our groomer always has the comment that ours has the temperment of the retriever, not the poodle.  I guess it would be very varied.

[Camilla and Darwin]

Very interesting.

Chewie is great when I have treats. He's much less reliable when I don't :(
