Boy, you're going to have the Toy Poodle and Maltese people coming after you.. lol They are soooooooooo different. They are both wonderful little dogs and a 9lb. Poodle is definitely not a teacup.
Back to the original question...My mother also had one that I grew up with and like has already been said, extremely intelligent.
