Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What's the deal with doodle dogs?

Just get a poodle that is expected to finish at 12 inches or taller.

I really miss ours.

Poodle-pointer or pudelpointer? There’s a difference. One is a mutt, the other is bred to hunt.

pudelpointer. its an annoying dog, all of the so called uber hunting breeds don't make very good family dogs. just get a freaking lab, trying to reinvent the wheel with dogs never is a good idea.

cmon how many pudel pointers have you owned and trained and hunted behind?

I have hunted Standard Poodles for over 20 years.They are actually from Germany and were bred as hunters.They are super smart and love to hunt.I have used them on Ducks,Geese,Pheasant and Grouse.I bought mine from a breeder who bred ones known to hunt although I did get one that was not from that same stock and he worked out good also.Some of the most loyal dogs I have hunted with.I did not give them Poodle cuts and most people did not know what they were.They are very athletic and can go all day.Do`nt buy one unless you have time to train and work them.They are high energy dogs and need to be worked.

My wife and I are dog people, always have been, (I am always weary of those who HATE dogs, like deflave)

We have had Goldens and labs, but our two current Golden Doodles are the best dogs we have EVER had.



Stella, our 5 YO female, is super sweet pup. Every 2 weeks I meet with a family friend who is a nurse, and we take Stella to the nursing home. (I am not allowed inside). But I drink a coffee outside for an hour and Stella comes out, tail wagging, and she makes a lot of folks happy.

Finn, the darker pup, is 1 YO. He has the best nose of any dog I have ever owned, which is saying something. He already has about 3 dozen sharpies and huns under his belt from ND this year.

Smart as hell, no shedding. Best dogs ever.

Chicks dig doodles. LOL, they are cute and quirky, exemplified by Sailor.
