Carlos, Adrienne's use of the term "professional Catholics" made me stop and pause. It was sickening rnidaeg some of their influential opinions left out in the open for the world to see. Mark Shea's angry post was the most un-Christian of them all.I don't know whether or not Father Corapi is innocent or guilty. At this point I think I will leave it up to God. But I continue to pray for him and all our priests.You know a character of a person by the way they treat a person when he is down.

Fafa

I don't know whether he is gutily or innocent. What I do know is the vile and vitriol poured out on him by the likes of Mark Shea, Jimmy Akin, and Elizabeth Scalia (the Anchoress) has left me breathless. Their behavior shows them to be nothing more than arrogant over-rated "professional" Catholics. They have acted despicably! He just posted the sheep, wolf, sheepdog story and one priest left a comment over at some blog calling it "fascism." Huh??? And then the commenters proceeded to vilify people that lived in Idaho and Montana as a bunch of moronic militia types (I live in North Idaho.) These people better wake up to the fact that there are some problems in the Church (which mirror the problems in this country) and they are not part of the solution!

Charm

Poor dog indeed! It may look cool but imgaine what all its doggy friends must think of it. And all that effort for it to just grow out in a couple weeks wonder what it looked like then!I love ice cold orange juice, with the ice so it slowly dilutes it.

The Dog Training Academy of South Florida is awesome. I had been tannriig with Leanne and Holly before DTASFL opened and it has gotten better with DTASFL. We mostly do agility classes and it is great that it is inside because weather in FL is not always conducive to outside tannriig. There is such a huge variety of classes for whatever you want to do with your dog- puppy classes, obedience, flyball (another favorite), Rally-O, therapy dog, animal actor (this one is very popular), and if you have a reactive dog they also do reactive dog classes. My favorite thing is that you can mix and match classes and are not locked into a specific class every week, so you can experiment with new classes. It is all positive tannriig which is great and builds a great relationship with your dog. It is also the home of our Dog Scouts of America Broward County Troop. We are at DTASFL 3 days a week and love it.

BTW It's good to see them striding like this. A lot of dogs do the cawllmaek (moving both legs on one side at the same time) a sign they are not content, often with the amount of exercise they get (i.e. they need a lot more and it may take a long time before the behaviour to disappear, even if they do get more exercise) or the pace their owner keeps (particularly in dogs on leash or dogs that are told to stay heel).If you're wondering: yep, I've been studying dogmovement for a long time now. I can tell whether a dog is going to be a problem or not when meeting my dogs more by the way he is walking, then by more commonly known factors as raised hackles or pose of the ears.

Burrows: thanks for your ctnoemms about gaits and movement. I never meant to imply that I was unhappy with Mercury's form. He's very graceful. The picture post and my ctnoemms are out of context if you didn't read the discussion in the Std. Poodle group. Mostly I was speaking there of the dog's structure and how it impacted their life span as an agility athelete. We talked about how important it is to have a strong front end for that sport. Ideally the front end has a shoulder (scapula) layback as close to 45 degrees as possible, angulation of scapula to humerus as close to 45 degrees as possible, and an equal length of humerus and scapula. In addition it is important that the front end be attached properly and not too far forward. The rear assembly is also important, but because it will not be receiving the initial impact from jumps and A frames, it is a bit more forgiving. Correct angulation of the rear from hip to femur to lower leg, length of hock, and angulation of pastern are all important. In addition, a level topline, and good feet are also important. All of this is very difficult to achieve in a dog body, but the closer a dog is, the better and longer he will play agility. Mercury's front end is set a small bit forward. That small imbalance wasn't what caused me to retire him from the sport his personality and lack of team skills were the deciding factors. There is certainly a lot for us to learn about agility as a sport for dogs and how it impacts their physical health. It's a fairly young sport, and not much evidence has been compiled about the rigors of long term training and competition.

Andrea

Loooove it! Milele is a beauty, and her name raelly does sing well!We have a rescued poodle, also. Fidel was named after me, and the his means Faithful. (Think fidelity, and Semper Fi.) However, I named this dog in vain. Fidel is an infidel, if ever there was one. He's anything but faithful, and that's how he wound up in poodle rescue. Oh well .we can always hope, can't we? LOL.

LOVE IT!! I just made one for my 5 year old daughter..SOOO CUTE!! and SUPER easy and QUICK! Start to fsinih about 1 hour. I had to make some adjustments to my measurements, but very easy. ThankS!!

None unless you plan on adnotipg. And what is wrong with a normal standard poodle? You do know they make good family pets right?Any breeder who purposely breeds mutts is not worth your time nor your money as they can't give you a guarantee about your dogs as far as size, health,coat, temperament, etc. If you are adnotipg go by the shelter and meet with dogs who have been cleared as being good for families.

Sotitole

All dogs shed. Poodle/mixes are no exception. And since a mutt can take on the chettcrarisaics of either parent, they could shed as much as the non-poodle relative.If you are looking for a poodle mix, go to your local shelter, I'm sure they have half a dozen.Do not purchase an intentionally bred, non-recognized mutt.Need help? Google Doo rescue or Doodle rescue , and find a lovely poodle mix in your area that need a home, and you'll already know their personality! Like how they'd be with an active home with children.

Cristiane

You may not like my answer, but it is smilpe. You can get these qualities from a minature poodle or a standard poodle. While the toy poodles can be fine, they are a bit small for growing children.Don't waste your time on a questionable hybrid . Unless you don't mind getting the wrong dog The mini and the standard are very energetic and playful. The question then becomes what size.When you say playful in what way do you mean this? Fetch a thrown object, wrestling with the dog, playing tug?If you children prefer very physical play, I recommend a standard (don't worry about the size).If play will amount to fetch and playing tug, a mini or a standard will fit the bill.Quote: Would a poodle hybrid be a great choice? No poodle hybrid would be a great choice.

I have a yorkie-poo. I had ahonter one and he passed away in Oct of last year and i loved him so much and he was a great dog and that is why i got ahonter one. Because of him yorkie-poo's will always hold a special place in my heart. Anyway i think they are great dogs. My Buddy never shed. The one that i have now is only 3 months, but i haven't seen her shed once yet. I don't know some people say they do, but i noticed that it seems to be the people that don't like little mixed breeds that say that. Don't mind some of the people on here they really hate new words like yorkie-poo and seem to hate little dogs that people made up names for. Mostly the mixed breed little dogs. Morkie's are really sweet as well. They don't have poodle in them, but they are still sweet. Good Luck! If you are able to get from a shelter then great, but don't let these people full you they do come from byb's. The people on here seem to think that just cause it came from the shelter that it will never get sick and it didn't come from a byb, but they say if you buy one that it will defiantly get sick. No matter what they say shelter dogs are usually from byb's or worse yet puppy mills. Never, ever buy from a pet store.

Readings

  • Panda PowerPoint!
    I guess I don't mind being "the entertainment" when it's at Mark Allen's second annual Holiday Fry-B-Que. Presented: preliminary findings from my ongoing research into the most charismatic megafauna of all: Giant Pandas.
  • McSweeny's Presents: The World, Explained | Dec 9, 2006
    For those who missed it, there will be more. World, Explained is going strong! Money was raised, laughs were had, and for those paying attention, small amounts of useful information about things like the aurora borealis were transmitted. Plus: Michael Cera = lovably funny. And Nick Diamonds' renditions of Dumb Dog and Hanging Tough are still in my head. As is that horribly catchy Fresh Step jam.
  • Jest Fest at Skylight Books
    Somehow I wound up hosting the 10th anniversary jubilee for Infinite Jest at Skylight Books. Because who doesn't love a jubilee, right? Despite being delirious with Hepatitis A (that's the mild, non-lethal kind; I'm not at risk for Hep B since I always go the needle share and choose clean-looking prostitutes), I managed to not mis-pronounce anyone's name and make an erudite joke and poke gentle fun at Michael Silverblatt.
  • McSweeny's Presents: The World, Explained | June 10, 2006
    Number Three! Last one was sold out so we moved to a slightly larger theater. Andy Richter hosted, and his opening exegesis of CSI: Miami warmed the people up right. Evany Thomas presented her very scientific findings on the Secret Language of Sleep; Starlee Kine bared her neuroses to the world (or at least the 300 people in the audience); Josh Davis showed video of his 135-lb self sumo wrestling a 550-lb opera singer from San Bernardino; and Davy Rothbart closed it out with some Found Magazine magic. Grant Lee Phillips, Sam Shelton and Zooey Deschanel provided the music punctuation! I can still hear their rendition of We Are the Champions.
  • McSweeny's Presents: The World, Explained | Feb 11, 2006
    The second in our series of precision comedy and fact-based entertainment extravaganzas benefiting 826LA. Patton Oswalt was kind enough to host, and Jon Brion joined in on the piano and guitar as thematic accompaniment. Presenters included: David Rees, Michael Colton, John Hodgman (along with his hirsuit troubadour, Jonathan Coulton), and me. Plus: a fashion show of exciting multi-user garmentry.
  • Little Gray Book Lecture at Galapagos
    How to Observe President's Day. Jonathan Coulton's technical wizardry has made this entire show available online. The summary from PRX: Sarah Vowell, John Hodgman and Joshuah Bearman on Presidents' Day, along with a fifteen-piece marching band and a new song about all forty-three presidents. My contribution? Yes, from Yeti Researcher. Again. Actually that was the first one. So I have only five stories!
  • Little Gray Book Lecture 25 at Galapagos
    The Animals: Are They Our Enemies? In the case of my presentation about the giant gerbils of Xinjiang, the answer is yes.
  • July 25: TJ to LA -- A Night McSweeney's Readings
    I was honored to be part of a strange triptych along with Salvador Plascencia and Josh Kun. Sponsored, somehow, by La Ciudad magazine, we all packed into Beyond Baroque with no air conditions. 150 people showed at 7 o'clock on a Friday evening, which we took as a good sign of something. Sal held up and anxiously discussed drawings from his novel, Josh delivered an essay on the Dr. Moreau of Tijuana, and my shtick (again) was Pac Man and metaphysics, this time with fun slides.
  • October 8th: Skylight Books w/Stephen Elliott
    Fun times were had by all. Someone in the audience actually mistook me for an expert on the psychology human character. We ate shrimp cocktail and drank cheap wine and laughed at Bush and celebrated the certainty of right besting wrong in American democracy. A lot of good that did.
  • October 9th: MoveOn Fundraiser in Los Angeles
    See above.
