Questions & Answers
Poodles are a popular breed of dog known for their hypoallergenic wiry hair. They belong to the working class of dogs, meaning they handle activities focused on retrieving, herding, and guarding. Poodles come in three sizes Standard, Miniature, and Toy. They are active, athletic, and require routine grooming to keep their coats in shape. Poodles make for excellent family companions and excel in canine events when properly trained. They are considered to be highly intelligent, loyal, and affectionate, making them easy to love.
Generally speaking, poodles are not known to cause allergies in people. While any animal or pet can result in allergic reactions for an individual, there are no definitive studies that strongly link allergy symptoms with poodle breeds. Allergies to pets can include reactions from dander, fur, pollen, and saliva, though these issues may depend on the individual pet. To stay safe, if someone in the home is prone to allergies, it would be wise to discuss the possibility of sensitivity to pet hair or dander before bringing a poodle into the home.
Poodles are small, playful and intelligent dogs that need a balanced diet made of high-quality food. It's important to feed the right amount, to choose a formula that is age-appropriate, and to slowly transition to new food if you change formulas. To begin with, proper nutrition for a Poodle should include a reputable, balanced and complete dry kibble formulated specifically for small dogs. High-quality proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals are necessary to ensure your Poodle stays safe and healthy.
If you’re welcoming a new Poodle into your life, there are a few steps you can take to ensure a smooth transition. Start by educating yourself about their specific breed, as each type of dog has unique needs and behaviors. Make sure your home is adequately prepared before your four-legged friend arrives. A crate, bed, toys, food and water dishes, and leash are all essential items you’ll need to have on hand. You should also research and find a veterinarian in your area and make sure your pup has all of the necessary vaccinations.
Poodles are a small breed of dog, often considered a toy breed. Although they come in three sizes Standard, Miniature, and Toy all of them are still considered small dogs.

The Poodle is both a loyal companion and a capable watchdog, making them a considered a great family pet.
Poodles have unique energy levels that require both physical and mental exercise to stay healthy and happy. Generally, Poodles need about 45 minutes of moderate exercise per day, including a good long walk, a game of fetch, or a swim in the lake. If proper exercise is not provided, Poodles may become timid, bored, or depressed, which can lead to destructive behavior. Additionally, even though they are known for their elegant coat, Poodles need regular grooming and bathing if they are kept inside.
Generally, Poodles can get along well with other pets because they are intelligent and loyal. However, it is important to properly introduce a Poodle to other animals in a controlled environment, and keep it from developing jealous feelings toward other pets. Socialization is very important in order to ensure a Poodle is comfortable and content with other pets. It is typically much easier for a Poodle to get along with other animals if they're exposed and socialized early during their puppyhood. That said, Poodle owners should be aware of potential issues, if their pet meets foreign animals and act accordingly.
The amount of time needed for regular Poodle training depends on several factors, such as the age of the pup, the specific commands being taught, and the training environment. Generally speaking, young puppies will need much more frequent and consistent training than adult Poodles. In general, you should plan on setting aside at least 10-15 minutes per day to train your Poodle, with the total amount of training time varying based on your pup's individual needs. Additionally, regular reinforcement and playtime will be important to ensure that your pup continues to retain their training.
