Jakie’s world turned upside down & it happened the day he visited the groomer. Julie, who walked the dogs, had always assumed that Jakie was a miniature poodle, at least he had poodle hair & the owners got him a poodle cut. But the groomer pulled Jakie’s ear back, & while Jakie was a trembling mess & moaning piteously, the groomer quietly stated that Jakie was some kind of a poodle mix – a mutt. Horrified Julie texted the owner, while the seven year old said that a DNA testing would clear all doubts, and Benita the nanny said that some poodles were poodles but looked different from other poodles. Julie waited anxiously for a text from Jakie’s owner.

The text did come. Jakie was indeed a mutt, a lovable half - breed Cockapoo – a cocker spaniel & poodle mix. And that is why he “pees” just everywhere, no poodle would ever do that, Julie said.

But Jakie was all bounce & a happy mass of fluff because he was done at the groomers for the day.
