standard's are really great dogs. Just don't let her get away with stuff you don't want her to be doing. Our standard will now climb over the baby gate in the kitchen because we thought it was funny the first time she did it but now it's just not so funny. Have atleast two ten minute training sessions for your pup a day (depending on it's age, if it's older it can be longer). Enroll in puppy school and socialize, socialize, socialize. Also make sure to keep her groomed regularly. Poodles are great dogs when well cared for and well trained (like any dog) but they are very smart and have minds of their own. My poodle is VERY bossy so she tries to get away with everything and she needs a really strong hand to keep her under control.
