Clifford

This is Clifford our small standard poodle, he is 18 inches and just under 30 lbs, his mother is a Miniature, and his father is a Standard.  Clifford's pups as adult doodles should be between 35 and 60 lbs.

Clifford amazes me everyday with his super intelligence, he seems to know when to be calm and restful and when it is time to clown around and be down right silly. 

Clifford absolutely adores both other dogs and people, loves our children, and does his own dance number complete with special Clifford moves (this involves standing on his hind legs while twisting from side to side and twirling his front legs to the beat, all of this while he beams a smile from ear to ear). He usually saves this "I am so happy I think I won the Lottery dance" for  special events, like when the kids get off the bus after school everyday, or when he first gets outside for a bathroom break.  You wouldn’t even think he was the same dog that was quietly sitting in the living room a minute before.
