I think we need to agree to differ here, another member of our pack is Peanut, an apricot toy poodle. She's getting on in age now, but she's the sweetest dog I've ever met (and I've met more than a few). In fact it's official, her health record has a entry in it that says "Very Sweet".
Some years ago I lived with George, another (silver) toy poodle, who until I met Peanut was the best dog I'd met. Those were the days when dogs were allowed to roam free, and they naturally congregated into packs. At seven pounds, George was the alpha of the neighborhood. It was hilarious to watch all those dogs weighing in at ten time his weight following him around like he was the King. It wasn't his size that mattered, but his intelligence. He was smarter than any three of them.
I may have been very lucky, but both of the toy poodles in my life were neither neurotic nor stupid.
