Does anybody know about terrier-poodle mix? [View all]

We lost our dog several years ago and my husband really wants a new dog. Our dog lived to 18 years and was a shelter dog. We've been to the shelter several times and haven't found one that is right for us. A friend has a terrier poodle mix that is about six weeks old. Apparently the dog is already cart trained. We have not had puppy before and I am a little leery, but apparently this breed is good for allergies.

Anybody know anything about this breed? Any help would be appreciated.

puppyhood can be a drag in some ways, but also a real treat TorchTheWitch Oct 2012 #9
