Questions & Answers
Poodles are perhaps best known for their curly coats, but there is much more to this popular breed than just fluffy fur! Poodles are highly intelligent, social and easy to train. Their eagerness to learn makes them ideal for various physical activities and mental challenges, including obedience, agility, and tricks. Unlike many other breeds, Poodles come in four sizes: standard, miniature, toy, and teacup. This means you can find one to fit your lifestyle, whether you live in a large home or a small apartment.
Poodles are often portrayed as a hypoallergenic breed of dog, but this is not entirely accurate. While the unique coat and low-shedding nature of a Poodle can be beneficial to those with allergies or sensitivities to pet dander, it is not completely allergen-free. Poodle hair is not considered non-allergenic; rather, it is regarded as less likely to trigger an allergic reaction.
Poodles are known for their fluffy coats and luxurious curls, so the best dog food for them must also provide essential nutrients for these features. A diet rich in Omega 3 fatty acids is the foundation for a healthy coat, one of a poodle's most prominent traits. Vegetables, such as sweet potatoes and carrots, are another part of a high-quality diet and can help a poodle maintain strong eyes and teeth. Additionally, the diet should contain animal-based proteins to explain the necessary muscle mass associated with this breed.
Preparing for a new Poodle can seem daunting, but by following a few easy steps you can ensure that you and your four-legged friend have a successful and happy life together. To start, make sure you have everything your pup will need, such as food, treats, toys, a bed, and possibly a crate or kennel. Additionally, you will need to have Poodle-safe grooming supplies, have a vet booked for regular check-ups, and set up regular grooming appointments where necessary.
Poodles are considered to be a medium-sized dog breed, although they can vary in size from a miniature to a large standard. Standard Poodles are the largest, typically standing around 15 inches tall at the shoulder and weighting between 45-70 pounds. Miniature Poodles stand 14 inches tall and weight 15-17 pounds while Toy Poodles are usually 10 inches or under and weight 4-6 pounds. All Poodles are thought to have descended from the Russian water dog and have a thick, curly coat that must be properly groomed regularly.
Poodles are remarkably active dogs that require plenty of exercise and stimulation for the best quality of life. They were bred originally to be water retrievers, and their intelligence and energy levels make them excellent companions for activities such as hiking and jogging. Poodles can make ardent competitors in dog sports such as agility, obedience, canine freestyle, and rally obedience. Being extremely trainable, they can easily learn all sorts of tricks and even perform acrobatics.
Poodles have a reputation of being extraordinarily friendly, adaptable and large-hearted dogs, making them ideal companions for kids. Poodles are known for being intelligent and easy to train; combined with their loyal nature, they can make excellent family dogs. Poodles enjoy playing, which makes them great references for children to learn responsibility and compassion. Unlike some other breeds, Poodles are gentle and rarely aggressive, so they can make excellent playmates.
Poodles are widely considered one of the smartest breeds of dog. Intelligence is measured by several factors including problem-solving abilities and the breeds ability to learn commands. Poodles are highly trainable—and generally enjoy the process—and are known to be quite clever and perceptive. They can learn a wide range of commands—almost 200—and remember them long-term. In fact, Poodles are considered to be one of the top five most intelligent breeds of canines, and are the second most intelligent breed of canine following the Border Collie.
