You won't believe it - but Ripley is only 2 pounds 6 ounces, and won't get any bigger.  That's it ! ! !  He is the smallest poodle here at Poodles by Design.  Rip may be little, but he has a brave heart.  He is also the most affectionate of the group.  Ripley loves to cuddle.

At 10 weeks old Ripley weighed in at just 1 lb. 1 oz.  At 12 weeks he had gained another ounce.  At six months he was still under 2 pounds (1 lb. 14 oz).  On his first birthday he weighed in at 2 lbs. 6 oz.

"Believe It Or Not" - Ripley is still less than 2 1/2 lbs. even at 16 months old.  His weight fluctuates an ounce every other day.  It depends on his amount of intake, and calorie usage when he runs and plays. 

Ripley's was the cutest puppy.  His beautiful velvety cream colored coat was as soft as mink.  Ripley's personality is as soft as his coat.  He makes friends easily, and interacts playfully with everyone he meets. 

This was Ripley's awkward "teen-age" puberty time.  His coat was changing from a puppy coat to a loose curly coat.

You can see Ripley's approximate size next to a 4 pound Poodle.  That's Nut-N-Honey behind him.

As you can see, his favorite girls are the "tiny teacups".  This is his Angel (3 pounds).  Sophia is another girl that Ripley loves to hang with!!!

Angel and Ripley are training to use the Secondnature Litter Box. 

Here is Ripley in Kindergarten with Maximum Love and some classroom friends.

Happiness is a Poodle puppy!!!
