IDK on that. We're on our second standard - and he's about as dumb as a dog. Perhaps it's the humans in his loop and the subsequent training lapses but I'm not getting many "woah smart dog" vibes.
He is soft, loving and very gentle with our kid so I can't complain. I don't think we have a big future in agility or other doggy-sports though.
HOWEVER!!!! - Can I scream it to the world? What's up with ???-oodles? Just get a poodle. They're good dogs, there's no reason to mix them up with lesser breeds like golden receivers and labrawhatevers. Man up. Get the poodle that you wanted in the first place.
(challenging pups though - good thing they're cute 'cause they might not make it otherwise)
