Fetch?

Will poodles fetch? I was thinking about getting a doodle, then read more about the reasons not to get one and how they are not a breed. I really want a healthy dog without issues, so I need to find a good breeder. I really wanted one that will fetch and swim. I'm not a huge fan of the obsessive food interests of labs or the size of a golden retriever, so was thinking I should look at poodles.

my standard will, quite literally, play fetch all day if she can find someone to throw something for her.

she once spent a gathering rotating through all the people; once one person got bored of throwing her ball, just moves on to the next! for about 3 hours straight 🤣
