mini poodle temperments

Question
I have a 10 year old standard poodle female and have been very  happy with her.  I thinking about getting another dog in a few years and don't think I can handle the grooming requirements of 2 standards.  I've met lots of standards but haven't seen as many minis.  How different are the personalities between the two sizes?

Answer
Having had all three sizes I dont find much difference between the sizes.  If well bred and properly trained they all make wonderful companions.  They are just as loyal and loving as the standards.  While standards are my favorite I do love my toys and minis.  I know that doesnt tell you a whole lot but I really dont see a big difference.  Poodles are all poodly no matter the size in my oppinion.  But remember this is just my oppinion.
