We have 2 mini (mid size) poodles that travel with us. They do NOT shed a bit, Callie has been with us about 10 years, Molly, 5. The back seat of the crew cab is theirs and has a padded 'cradle' from Amazon. Callie has been all over the US and much of Canada (see the map) and Molly, not quite as many miles. They are the first one in the truck when it's time to leave. I have to say that these two may quite possibly better companions then our kids were and for sure, better behaved



With a non shedding pup, you will have to either learn how to groom them yourself or be prepared to find a good groomer as they have hair, not fur.


With a 'doodle, be aware that not all are well bred. Most are pretty good and have carried the good trats from their their background, others - well let's say puppy mills are not very good places to find a family pet



Our experience with friends that have rescue dogs has been mixed. Some are great, others, and unfortunately most, have been a problem. Many, and obviously not all, rescue dogs are in an adoption center for a reason - they were from a puppy mill and were from poor stock wuth health issues or mistreated or have a discipline problem. If you do end up going that way, choose carefully.


Callie is the aprocot and Molly is the silver/black
