My parents have had pure poodles most of my life. Many were huge jerks. When a -oodle is a jerk it’s usually because of the poodle part. |

| Where do people think “breeds” came from? Direct from the hand of God? |

No, I’m fine with breeds. I would get a lab, but I don’t want one with an insane fetch drive I need to satisfy every single day or who needs to carry something all the time. |

| Wheatens are nicer dogs than poodles. You don't need a mix for hypoallergenic either! |

I don’t care about shedding. Can you recommend a Wheaten breeder? |

| We grew up with black standard poodles and they were all so smart and funny. They came from old established lines, so they were great dogs. |

Since I had to google this mix here is the pic of a puppy. They seem like adult dogs that no groomer ever wants to groom! Never get a poodle unless you are ready to have a total chaos in your house. All the poodles and mixes I know are on Prozac. |

My mini poodle is not on prozak. He is well behaved and smart as a whip |

Well, I don't know your mini poodle, do I? I know two pure large poodles, on Prozac. And 3 Goldendoodles on prozac. One that is Golden Doodle, I have no idea, but that dog is viscous. Though, I suspect due to poor dog ownership. I walked by their fenced in yard, small one. That poor dog is never on a walk, and well, predictably going nuts from boredom. And I hear the "mom" during a bbq when dog was out with them, yelling at the dog that she will chop his head off. Honestly, she sounded deranged. It makes me sad for the poor dog. |

Goldens generally fit this bill. They are like the lazy retriever—they’ll fetch if you really want them to. A spaniel also could be a good pick but for some reason spaniels are out of style and hard to find now, except cavs which are suddenly everywhere. I don’t know enough about poodles or Wheaton’s to opine but I also know a large number of very hyper oodles, and one or two nice chill ones. The nice one is actually from a sketchy breeder situation so fingers crossed on the health issues because it’s a sweet dog. |

| Wheatens and all terriers in my experience are type A predators. They do not relax - ever. Your home will be free of vermin but be prepared. |

A golden was my original idea, but spouse doesn’t want one. Childhood trauma, I think. Too bad because I think you’re right. I would also like something a little smaller though. |

To the people saying they know bad whatever breeds, in my life I’ve known good and bad every breed I can think of and it’s always down to puppyhood and the owner. I’ve never known a really good dog owner who had a problem dog except when they were adopted as older dogs (well-managed).
Well, except for an insane jack Russell or two. |
