Very similar. This was me with short hair making cookies. The big guy is Paladin.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

That is such a great picture! Looks like you're a bit of a messy baker, like me. (I grew up watching Julia Child, and I can destroy a kitchen by flinging things in a couple of steps... ;) ). Paladin's face is PRICELESS. Best dog face I've seen in a long time!

I'm very messy - but Hootch of Turner and Hootch had nothing on Paladin for slobber. At his most active, he weighed 220 lbs.

I grew up with Bassett Hounds, so I understand the slobber factor. Especially when they shake!... :drool:

That's a lot of dog! who takes who for a walkies!

My daughter recently bough a cute little puppy, that grew up to be a big bruiser boxer mix with the gift of the slobber.

She is pretty dry unless she is excited, Oh wait, she is always excited, yup Loveable, excited and slobbery

Awww, what a sweet face Paladin has. And I'm a cat person saying that.

Was Paladin helping you bake? Back when I was in college I went to my roommate's house one weekend. We made "Mr Bill" cookies and her parents' standard poodle helped eat the broken ones....

Is there a standard for poodles? I imagine it is called something like IEEE-K9-p00d

Hahahaha. Funny man. Don't quit your day job, funny man....

"Standard" refers to size (as opposed to toy, miniature, etc). I think some other dog breeds have those types of size breakdowns as well (my brother-in-law and his wife used to have a standard poodle who was almost large enough to qualify as "giant" if they had ever tried to show her).

large.141974836_Smartpoodle-X2.jpg.1d78808c930467e91de02dbc0e486352.jpgPoodles are remarkably intelligent,

Normally you put a dog in a pen, a poodle on the other hand will fetch your pen!

Yeah, I've always wondered about the Shetland- series of animals, as in -Pony and -Sheepdog. No one has ever explained to me if the Shetland Sheep are similarly small.

 

Actually, telling off-beat jokes IS part of my day job. I provide 'phone support for Department of Education computer users, and more than a few are often on the point of tears by the time they get to talk to me. A few of my off-beat jokes and they are either seeing the world in a better light, or ready to strangle me, but they aren't crying any more.

Okay, I confess, we had a standard poodle too. I'm going to have to scan a picture.

Breeders have been working on restoring the original hunting instincts of the standard poodle for the last 20 years or so, apparently with astonishing levels of success.

 

And it seems to me that people would take them much more seriously if their owners didn't trim their fur into those bizarre shapes! Their particular type of fur is there for a reason...
