skycat 6,173 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Does anyone know how that litter that Typ Ratcher bred turned out? Just curious. Quote Link to post

ady-b 94 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 would it be called a groodle? More like a poohound I suspect Quote Link to post
6pack 60 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 It's a common fallacy that poodle crosses don't shed, it's used very often to sell the designer Labradoodles. Saying that, I have a hankering for a Poodle Reportedly the most cleverest dogs after the collie. Soft mouthed and good noses too, a very versatile dog. Would be very interested to see how a first cross would turn out. Quote Link to post
TOPPER 1,809 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 there used to be an old fella in somerset with a poodle x grey and it was a very handy dog he used to do a lot of deer with it and a fox had no chance , as mentioned it was a clever dog and ran clever the old fella always had it with him and i dont think that dog ever had a lead on it I d have had it in my kennel given the chance it was a handy dog i dont know what happened to it as it must be 11 years old now and old is Burt is dead now so the trail end there Quote Link to post

Shazza 52 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I have a miniature poodle 14" tts that is a demon little ratter & turning into a good busher, she has high prey drive and intelligence and i'm turning her from a lap warmer into a hunting partner quite quickly for a 3 year old pet dog She would love to catch bunnies but isn't fast enough though she gets mighty close using her brains and turning ability. Next season i am hoping to work her alongside my pup and make up a good team 1 Quote Link to post
Scallywag 78 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I know someone who got a collie x bitch off Typ Ratcher and he said Typ was working his poodle cross and happy with it. I guess the right poodle could add intelligence, a good coat, willingness to go in water (mine are pathetic about water so I'd like that!). A bloke round here has a standard poodle that catches rabbits, so who knows?! Quote Link to post
morton 5,368 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Some odd litters about lately,some will possibly make useful workmates,but £300 a pup will put people off trying them. Quote Link to post
trigger2 3,141 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 if hadnt got a new pup 5 weeks ago i would of given one a try. Quote Link to post
Shazza 52 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 The only problem i have found with the wooly poodle coat is it snags up in heavy bramble, the dog is more than willing to enter any cover but gets caught up so bad she gets stuck sometimes and i have to get in and free her Quote Link to post
Chickens4ever05 22 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 doesn';t the poodle help for people who are allergic to dogs, im sure that was the orginal reason for the labrdoodle to create guide dogs for the blind who were alergic to dogs, so i guess the guys who relly want to hunt with lurchers but them, there partener or thier childeren are allergic they might be willing to give one a chance Tom Quote Link to post
