Questions & Answers
Poodles are a highly intelligent and popular breed of dog. They come in standard, miniature, and toy sizes, and have a distinctively curly coat. Poodles are easy to train and excel in retrieving, agility, and obedience. They are very loyal dogs and make appealing, loving family members. Health wise, they are relatively long-lived breeds and are susceptible to few genetic health problems, such as hip dysplasia. It's important to keep your poodle groomed regularly and have a coat trim every few monthskeep their curly coat in optimal condition.
Poodles, like many other breeds, can be hypoallergenic, depending on a variety of factors. Generally, certain coat types are more likely to be hypoallergenic. For instance, the Poodle's "corded coat" (where the fur is kept long and is naturally-parted into sections) and the "curly" version of the coat are generally accepted as the least prone to causing allergies.
Yes, Poodles do have special dietary needs. First and foremost, they must have a balanced diet. A good quality food tailored to the specific needs of Poodles should be chosen, and should contain vitamins, minerals, high-quality protein, and other nutrients essential for a Poodle's health. Additionally, their diet needs to contain a sufficient amount of fiber that can be acquired from vegetables as well as prebiotic supplements providing the body with beneficial bacteria that promotes healthy digestive system. Poodles also benefit from eating meat in moderation as it supplies them with essential nutrients and protein.
It's important to prepare your home before welcoming a Poodle into your family. Since Poodles require regular grooming, you should make sure you have all the necessary supplies in your home prior to your pet's arrival, such as shampoo, conditioner, a brush, scissors, clippers, and nail trimmers. You should also ensure you have treats, toys, food, and a bed for your pet. If you have a yard, consider investing in a fence – and be certain to check with your local animal shelter about any specific rules for outdoor playtime.
Poodles typically grow to an average height of about 10-15 inches and a weight of 10-70 lbs, depending on the breed. The American Kennel Club recognizes four sizes of Poodle, including Toy Poodles which are 10 inches or under, Miniature Poodles which are 10-15 inches, Standard Poodles which are 15 inches to 21 inches, and the recently recognized Standard Poodle which is over 21 inches. Toy Poodles are the smallest, with Standard Poodles being the largest.
Yes, Poodles do enjoy swimming. They are a highly intelligent breed and are eager to please, so as long as they are properly trained, they should have no trouble in and around water with proper instruction and guidance. Swimming can benefit a Poodle's overall health — it's a great form of exercise that increases cardiac output as well as strengthens the muscles in your dog's hindquarters and rear. A Poodle that correctly swims offers a great deal of resistance against the water, which serves to help strengthen the muscles and cardiovascular system.
Poodles have a reputation for being highly intelligent and loyal companions, and they are usually great with other pets. Generally, these dogs are outgoing and friendly, and when properly socialized, they can easily get along with cats and other dogs. That said, there are some factors to consider when introducing a Poodle to other animals, such as the size and age of the other pet, the demeanor of the Poodle, and the training and socialization of both animals. All of these can greatly influence if a Poodle will get along with other pets.
Training your Poodle requires a lot of dedication and patience. Start with basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay'; eventually they will understand what you want them to do and obey your commands. Choose a few words that you can use consistently for each command and reward them whenever they get it right. Praise them when they obey your commands, and always remain patient and positive. Encourage them to stay engaged by providing fun activities like fetch, hide and seek, or agility training activities.
