Sorry I keep forgetting you're not in the US. if you were ever to buy in the US however, RDC would be one of your best choices. And yes, poodles are very intelligent and probably would make good police dogs. You never see the show cuts outside of the show ring but their patrician features tend to make them look friendly. My guy, however, is not a dog you want to approach as a stranger...another fun fact, poodles were originally bred to retrieve waterfowl. The weird-looking haircuts had a purpose. Their woolly coats were kept long over kidneys, heart etc. to keep them warm in the water while any non-necessary coat was shaved off. Of course the show cuts probably became a tad more extreme...we keep our fellow in what is basically considered a puppy cut, but leave the floof on his ears and tail!
Re: the red lipsticks. Well, they're a few seasons old now and the women who bought them and carried them rarely or not at all may just be putting them out there in the market. Add to that the fact that it's a very show stopping colour and one that you'd notice more on the secondary market. There are likely to be as many of several other 2015 colours out there but perhaps they fly slightly under the radar because they're not as showy?
