Greetings: I live in Lake Oswego, Oregon and I dearly want to own a black standard poodle. We had one years ago and I really must have of these wonderful dogs in my life. I work at home, so the dog would not be alone. I also have a large fenced yard. I prefer an adult dog with no health problems that has been house trained and has a calm temperment and is good with children, since I have grandchildren. If you know of a good standard, in need of a good home, where she would be treated like royalty, please contact me.

Many thanks, Jean Koch
