Katy,

I'm not putting Poodles down. They are smart, lovable companion but they
have their slow witted member also.

The two dumbest dogs I've ever seen were a matched pair of Std Poodles.
They also were probably the most loveable two dogs I've ever seen.

I was only in my teens and working in kennels. It was an awful time for
dogs. The early days of WW2. Their masters were be Drafted and the dog
people were going crazy finding homes for them. Std sized Poodles were a
problem due to size. These two lived with me for close to a year before
I found a home for them. Loveable they were but smart they were not.

Now, I'll have to ask this question again.
How do you give a dog an IQ test? What are the standards that are used?

I'm sorry about getting into another Off Topic discussion but Dogs are
very close to Sailing with me. They certainly rate better than politics
