Is it acceptable to have just one poodle per group, or should each skier be poodled up?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Why not just fit a tranceiver to the poodle and then reuse it? Seems expensive to keep getting new poodles all the time.

Apparently all the rando dudes are using chiwahwas (how the hell do you spell that?!) - lighter weight and smaller pack size.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

If you get an adequately sized poodle it can walk itself. No need for packing it in your handbag.
As a traditionalist, I can't believe we aren't using St Bernards for this. The number of out of work St Bernards is increasing dramatically due to global warming and the use of modern fancy gizmos to rescue people. Their trade union has been very active of late, suggesting that poodles coming from eastern europe to take their jobs etc will not be tolerated.

Surely overkill what about avalanche cords on the poodle? I believe they would have helped in the Lewes avalanche

does the poodle need a shovel, probe and transceiver as well, or just the poodle shooers?

Not disposable in the same way a poodle is.

I've never thought of Scarpa as a poodle

Perhaps this would be a good use for Staffordshire Bull Terriers? The dogs homes seem desperate to get rid of the things, and most of them are barely trained, might as well point them downhill and see what happens.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

But can you take it on a plane in your handbaggage? And should it wear a helmet?

You know it makes sense.

Yes, or a St Bernard. The trouble with poodles is they are too lightweight to set off avalanches as the cartoon shows. I sometimes have the same worry when skiing with a lightweight guide.

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Animal lovers could alternatively phone up NATO and tell them they saw Colonel Gadaffi hiding a plane under the snow.

Is this what French poodles were bred for?
(I do hope so).
