Heya

Poodles are clipped that way because they are water dogs. The poofs on the
hips are there to protect the hips from the cold. The poof on the tail is
to act like a rudder.


I appreciate the ethos behind it, but how many clipped poodles are
water dogs as opposed to pets? And why do some people dye them pink or
blue, it's horrible. Poor doggies. I'd rather see them as nature
intended tbh.
