I have a black poodle named Nanette. Are you a dog person?

Yeah I think poodles are cute. They vary in size between the standard, miniature, and toy poodle.

They are the second most intelligent , just behind the Border Collie,

Yeah the border collie was specifically bred for obedience and intelligence. How old is your poodle?

He's a standard poodle , almost five.  He loves water and playing catch

That's awesome. The origins of the poodle are disputed over whether they came from the French Barbet or from a water dog.

Yes and poodles have won awards on many conformation shows including "Best in Show" in 1991 and 2002.
