Philosophy
My Fellow Comedists,
So TheWife has been beginning to think about dogs. Mixed breeds are much healthier than pure breeds and in terms of intelligence and shedding, poodles are a great dog to work into a mix. As a result, we now have lots of poodle mixes which are not only great pets, but wonderfully funny names. Cross a collie and a poodle, get a cadoodle. Cross a Maltese and a poodle, get a malti-poo. Cross a giant schnauzer with a poodle and get a giant schnoodle. I don't even want to know what they call a shih tzu/poodle mix.
So this week's question, what is the funniest dog breed name?
Live, love, and laugh,
Irreverend Steve
