Ok. Things are kinda slow again so. As a poodle owner I found this story quite funny.
It seems that poodles are quite rare in Japan and most Japanese have never seen a real live one. So this one entrepreneur goes off to New Zeeland and buys up 20 or so sheep. Brings them back to Japan and gives them a nice Pho Pho poodle cut, and starts selling them at some outrageous price $3000 or so.
A Japanese TV celebrity of some sort buys one and takes it along to some talk show. Whereupon it is quickly pointed out that her poodle ain't no poodle. One of here comments= I wondered why it did not seem to like dog food.
