[...] I’ve spoken a bit about how our family troupe of circus-style performers happened to be gifted with a standard poodle and fall so in love with him that we’ve had standard poodles as members of the family – and the troupe – ever since. I’ve even posted about one of our most successful poodle acts, Championship Poodle Wrestling. [...]

Ooh! I just realized (because I clicked) that you’re from Standard Poodles USA! And you linked me straight to rescue… wow, have I some stories about that! I thank you ever so much for commenting here in my humble blog, and hope we’ll have some rousing story-swappings to come!

Hi, Sandy! That show was short-lived, based more on karma than anything else. We were in Jax when the Riverwalk was first built, had a friend with a kite shop who sponsored. Went for about three straight years, though, and was a really big hit!

We live in the Asheville, NC area now, have for 15 years since the Pup died. Uncle Bob died too, though we’ve a nice wooden sign over our cabin door announcing that this is “Uncle Bob’s Mountain Bed and Breakfast.” Have more giant mutant mountain poodles, and are thinking about getting a Labradoodle because they’re not as prone to cancer. Just a true and dear story of our history with poodles and show biz. Which is where poodles can really shine!

Thanks for your interest, and I hope you’ll keep in touch. Who are your poods? Histories, what they look like and love to do… I want it all! We’re not there, maybe you’ll bring them to the mountains. Where my hubby and grandson now perform downtown, and “Pet The Poodle” is still a good money-maker just like it is on the pier on Key West (which we have also done). But that’s another blog entry… §;o)

Hi,

I live near Jacksonville! Does your son still still put on the show? I’d love to see it sometime and so would our two Standard Poodles, Meg and Ed.
