Is a Poodle a sensible first dog, grooming costs and all?

First-timer leaning toward a Poodle but a bit nervous about grooming costs and getting in over my head. How steep was the learning curve, honestly?

Beautiful dog. Ours has the same quirks, grooming costs included.

Same here — ours took a while to settle but is brilliant now.

Did anything in particular help you with grooming costs?

We were nervous about grooming costs too before getting ours; it's been fine.

Our Poodle is exactly the same with grooming costs — you learn to manage it.
