Who is Malvina's best friend? Pinocchio? Pierrot? Not at all. Her friend in the tale was Artemon, a huge handsome poodle. According to studies, dogs of this breed are the most intelligent of their brethren. Most likely, in childhood, everyone dreamed of having such a smart and beautiful friend.

Colors
Puppies offered by the kennel have several color options. Currently, the RK Federation has recognized 6 colors: white, red, black, brown, apricot and silver.
