Poodles 2008 Wall Calendar
Poodles are proud, loyal, and happy. They are intelligent, sensitive dogs that often like to indulge their playful side. In France where the Poodle is the national dog, it is called le caniche or duck dog because it is an excellent retriever. This wonderful 2006 calendar is devoted entirely to the standard Poodle, and pictures elegant poodles of various colors including gray, white, gold and black.
