Questions & Answers
Poodles are a highly intelligent and loyal breed of dogs, often identified with their distinct grooming style. One fun fact about poodles is that, contrary to popular belief, poodles can actually come in a variety of sizes. Standard poodles are the largest and can reach up to 70cm in height and 30kg in weight. Then there are the medium-sized moyen poodles that measure about 45-60cm in height while weighing around 20kg.
Managing allergies with Poodles is possible as these gentle dogs produce only a very low amount of dander, which is the most common cause of allergic reactions. To further minimize any allergic reactions, it is important to groom the Poodle regularly and bathe it weekly. Vacuuming their living area can help as well by removing pet hair and fur from carpets and furniture. Additionally, it can be helpful to use air purifiers in your living and/or sleeping areas to reduce any potential irritants.
Poodles should not be fed any type of nuts or seeds, due to the possibility of choking hazards. Chocolate and other sugar-based treats should also be avoided, as they can cause problems like pancreatitis or heart problems. Additionally, bones can splinter and cause internal damage to a poodle's digestive tract. Grapes, raisins, macadamia, onions, garlic and chives are toxic to dogs and should never be given to a poodle. It's also important to avoid giving too many treats, as these can cause weight gain and related health issues.
Poodles do have some unique needs when compared to other breeds. These include regular grooming to keep their coat in optimal condition, the need for daily exercise, and higher than average demands for mental stimulation. Due to their intelligence and desire to please, they also need an owner who is willing to provide consistent and firm obedience training. Poodles typically suffer from many of the same ailments as other dogs including ear and eye infections, joint issues, and digestive problems so the importance of a good nutrition and regular health checkups can't be overstated.
Poodles are considered small dogs, placing them in the toy breed category. Poodles typically weigh under 15 pounds, with some breeds even weighing less than 6 pounds. Poodles come in three sizes – Toy, Miniature, and Standard – and they all sport the same distinctive curly coat. Testament to their small stature, Toy Poodles often have an energy level that is hard to quell, making them well-suited for apartments and townhouses.
Absolutely! Taking your Poodle running with you is a great way for the two of you to bond and stay active together. Just remember that it's important to give your pup some time to get used to the activity first. Take it slow, introduce your pup at a slow speed and gradually increase the length and pace of your runs. If your Poodle gets tired or is more comfortable with brisk walking instead, make sure to give them plenty of breaks and keep them hydrated along the way.
Poodles' dispositions can vary, so it really depends on the individual pet and the other pets they are interacting with. Generally speaking, poodles have a very friendly demeanour and get along well with other pets in the household. They tend to do best when they have plenty of socialization with other animals, including dogs and cats, and can even live harmoniously in multi-pet households. It is still important to monitor any interactions between poodles and other pets, as certain behaviors can lead to aggressive reactions or altercations.
Training your Poodle is an important step in providing a safe and healthy environment for your pet. One of the best ways to begin the training process is to ensure your pup is comfortable with the commands you give. Work with positive reinforcement techniques, such as giving your pup treats when you give a command and she follows, or providing praise for a job well done. Training sessions should be kept short but consistent, and be tailored to the individual needs and strengths of your pup. Make sure to provide plenty of opportunities for playtime and exercise, both of which provide added mental stimulation that can help with training.
