Now I know that you lie awake at night worrying about this. So  I am happy to report that they have relocated to Manly resort just north of Sydney. I see them trotting about the beach front with their owners or more likely carried. Poodles don't seem to do walking as a rule. 

The Manly Daily which is now my vital conduit to important news has a headline in its 'Undertow' section - She's Toying With the Big Time which is a hard hitting indepth report on Apricot Pooch Coco-Chanel's win of the DOGUE Manly Coverdog Competition. There is a very fetching picture of her in pink sunglasses, a big pink bow, crystal collar and her toenails are co-ordinated in pink too. Sadly the Manly Daily website fails to have a picture of Coco-Chanel on their website :(

"Coco-Chanel is incredibly well trained' DOGUE's top dog, Margaret Hennessy, said. "She can pose quickly, get changed quickly and was very laid back and relaxed. She is not a prima -donna at all, her manners are impeccable."

Coco-Chanel's "mother", Dianne Stone, said she knew her pup was destined for the big time. "She'll go straight to the top. I imagine soon she won't get out for bed for less than $10, 000 a day.

Apparently Coco-Chanel loves children and helps Dianne's grandchildren off with their socks. " They'll roll them down and then she will remove them."
