Soneal, I am sorry you had a bad night, and hope you get to go see the puppy today! I am anxious for pictures!! |
Yes, you're right of course. I was pretty much going by my personal experience and our miniature poodle was about 6 inches taller and more than 10 lbs. heavier than my toy poodle. Most definitely a toy poodle can get fat and weigh more but it's the height that classifies them. Thanks for clearing that up.
