Honestly, if you're looking into other breeds, standard poodles shouldn't be out of your league.

Here's Mia, who is currently titled in AKC Coursing Ability (CA- 3 qualifying runs) and NAFA Flyball (FM- Flyball Master- 5000 points). Her first agility trial is in a few weeks.

Standard poodles don't have the innate "I'll do anything you ask of me just to please" you drive that some bully breeds do, but they're incredibly smart and when properly motivated can learn to do anything.

She's a surprisingly good working dog and listens well. She's even taken to jumping off the dock at our friend's pool. She's got ball drive and is fast as all get out. She's currently (I believe) the fastest standard poodle in NAFA running 4.5 seconds in the pack. She completes 700yd lure courses in under 50 seconds.

If she's something that sounds like something you might be interested in, let me know, because she will be bred if she passes her health testing. IMO, she has a nice temperament, stands still for grooming, likes kids, and is smart (too smart sometimes). I don't really like poodles, so for me to say this about her, you know she's something special.

She's up for anything, but has an off switch in the house.

They're not all princess and bows
