Yes!!!!!!
Toy poodles ARE very smart and the easiest to train compared to my other dogs I have or have had in the past.
They seem to "want" to learn and please
I have not met anyone who has a toy poodle
and does not totally love their dog!!

I have been bitten several times and I just dont trust these dogs.

That's not the dog's fault. It's the owners fault for allowing it. Properly raised, trained and socialized, a toy Poodle is no meaner or more likely to bite than any other breed.

For me, toy poodles are cute and sweet. I also heard that they are also easy to train.

Toy poodles are so lovable and huggable like baby as well.

They might just be "protecting" your mother, that's all.
There's a reason for them acting that way and i'm sure it's not because they are mean little dogs. Poodles are very smart and loyal to their "person".
Perhaps you tease them or aggrevate them? Try giving little treats for good behaviour. Each time you come close, if they don't snip, you reward and praise. I'm sure they can be re assured that you will not hurt their mommy

Chabella, thanks for your response to my question. I can't wait 'till I bring my little curly, fluffy baby girl home!

heh heh heh

I'm back!
