Questions & Answers
Poodles are a breed of highly intelligent dog with an amazing array of talents. They come in three sizes standard, miniature, and toy and could be surprisingly athletic despite their pop-culture perception of being a more sedentary breed. They love to swim, and some can participate in agility competitions and even dock diving. One of the more unique aspects of Poodles is their profuse, curly coats that actually serve to protect their organs from water damage. Poodles are also hypoallergenic, so they are a great breed for people with certain allergies.
Poodles are often considered to be hypoallergenic due to their low-shedding coats. This means that Poodles produce fewer allergens than other breeds, which can be beneficial for those with allergies. This is not to say that Poodles are completely non-allergenic. Some people still find their coats, saliva, and even dander to triggers for allergies. If you are allergic to dogs, it is not wise to assume a Poodle would be completely allergen-free, even if it is hypoallergenic.
Poodles need to be fed a balanced diet that is specific to their age and dietary requirements. A quality dog food should be chosen for them, rich in minerals, vitamins, proteins, and other essential nutrients. It's suggested to give Poodles a mixture of wet and dry food, or an all-wet diet, as many Poodle owners prefer wet food to dry. Feeding them high-quality protein, such as cooked eggs or chicken, is also necessary. Their diet can be supplemented with canned vegetables and immunity-boosting supplements for additional benefits.
Yes, Poodles do have some special requirements due to their characteristic coat. It is important that owners groom their Poodle regularly, brushing every few days to prevent the formation of mats and tangles. It may also be necessary for owners to take their Poodle to a professional groomer for regular clips depending on the breed type. Regular baths should also be undertaken, and the nails and ears should be trimmed and cleaned to promote good health. Diet is also important; high-quality nutrition is recommended, and occasional dental checks may also be beneficial.
Poodles come in four primary sizes; Standard, Miniature, Toy, and Teacup. Standard Poodles are the largest of the four, typically ranging from 15 to 22 inches in height and between 40 to 70 pounds in weight. Miniature Poodles are somewhat smaller, usually growing to a height of 11 to 15 inches at the shoulder, and weighing 10 to 15 pounds. Toy Poodles, as the name implies, are true "toys" that grow to a height of 8 to 10 inches, and weigh between 4 and 6 pounds.
The amount of walking time your Poodle needs will depend on a few factors. Age, physical fitness, and health should all be taken into consideration. Generally speaking, an adult Poodle should receive at least 30 minutes of activity each day, including walks. It's best to break up the activity into multiple sessions throughout the day, such as two 15-minute walks instead of one 30-minute walk. Puppies usually need more exercise than adult Poodles, and should receive at least 20 minutes twice-daily.
Poodles are incredibly loving and loyal – making them an ideal breed for families with children. With patience and consistency, poodles can be taught to develop an incredibly strong bond with those around them. They're smart enough to understand basic commands, and love to demonstrate their understanding of simple instructions. Poodles are affectionate yet independent – running around with children and playing as well as lounging around and accepting snuggles when necessary.
Training a Poodle is possible, although it can be a challenge. A Poodle's intelligence combined with its high energy level means that it requires a lot of patience and consistency during training. However, Poodles are known for being highly trainable and motivated by food and companionship. Allowing the dog to learn at its own pace and rewarding for desired behaviors will help to ensure a successful training experience. Utilizing positive reinforcement and proper techniques, it is possible for even a novice to train a Poodle.
