We're about to get a GS pup but we already have two cats 3 and 5 years old. Will a GS get along with them?

are poodles a smart breed of dogs? they really don't look like when people have them groomed in all those funny show styles, poor dogs

We have two kids 5 and 7 years old and we're thinking about getting a dog. There is an adorable Pekingese puppy in the shelter but are these dogs usually good with kids?
 The breed doesn't have as much to do with it as the way you train it does.
If you train the puppy so it knows it can't bite while it plays, and so it doesn't get too protective over one person (this happens a lot with small dogs!) then you should ...
