In addition I never fear that he will hurt anybody. Outside of poodles, just a plain old mutt. I’ve always had mutts until I married a man allergic to dogs. My last dog prior to poodles was a German shepherd mix. She was smart as a whip.
I'm surprised you're the only poodle vote here so far! They are hypoallergenic, non-sheddding, super intelligent, and friendly. Of course, there is the grooming, but they are a good option for someone with dog allergies.
