Questions & Answers
Poodles are considered one of the most intelligent breeds in the world, and have a long history as water retrievers! While they come in three sizes (standard, miniature, and toy), all varieties of poodles have the same distinct curly coat that does not shed. Poodles are also the oldest breed of dog, tracing their roots back to Ancient Greece and Africa. Fun fact: Poodles were once so popular in the U.S. that they starred in their very own movies, like 'The Incredible Journey of the Puddle Jumpers'.
Poodles are often thought to be hypoallergenic because of their low-shedding coat, but it is important to be aware that no breed of dog is 100% hypoallergenic. If you suffer from allergies, it is beneficial to spend time with the dog prior to adoption or purchase to ensure the breed won't have an adverse affect on your allergies. Although Poodles are not considered hypoallergenic, they are known for generating less dander and saliva than most other breeds, and are often less likely to trigger allergies.
Yes, Poodles do have special dietary needs because they are a small breed of dog. It's important to provide them with nutrient dense food and adequate variety, as many in this breed have sensitive digestive systems. Poodles do not require any kind of supplement as they can get most of their nutrients from a properly formulated, balanced diet. Their optimal diet should consist of a balance of high-quality proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and essential vitamins and minerals.
While all breeds of dog require exercise, diet, and regular vet checkups, Poodles have a few special requirements that make them quite distinct from other breeds. They require frequent brushing and grooming, as their hair is highly likely to become matted and tangled if not kept trimmed and brushed on a regular basis. Additionally, they need plenty of mental stimulation as they are very intelligent dogs that can easily become bored and destructive if not properly entertained.
Poodle size varies and depends upon the breed you choose. Generally speaking, Standard Poodles are the largest of the breed and typically reach heights between 15 and 24 inches and can weigh up to 70 pounds. Miniature Poodles tend to reach heights between 10 and 15 inches and can weigh 10-14 pounds. Toy Poodles are the smallest Poodle and stand 8 to 10 inches at the shoulder. On average, they usually weigh four to six pounds.
Poodles are active, intelligent dogs and require a decent amount of daily exercise. As with any dog, exercise needs are based on the individual poodle's age, size, and health. Generally, poodles should be taken on a daily walk, and allowed time each day to run around freely at the park or in a secure fenced area. They also enjoy playing catch and Frisbee, and enjoy activities like agility training which are great for their mental stimulation as well as their physical fitness.
Poodles can make excellent companions for first-time pet owners. They are intelligent, cuddly dogs with charming personalities, which makes them ideal for people who may be new to the world of pet ownership. Furthermore, because they are small in size, they generally require less exercise than larger breeds. Poodles are also relatively easy to groom, train, and look after, making them a very suitable pet for a novice pet owner. That said, prospective owners must be prepared to provide them with patience and dedication so as not to overwhelm them with new commands and expectations.
Training a Poodle can be an easy or difficult experience, depending on the owner's commitment to the process. Poodles are incredibly intelligent dogs and typically learn quickly, so the key is providing consistent and ongoing reinforcement and guidance. It's important to start teaching the basics when your puppy is young and to strive to have him learn basic obedience commands. Additionally, the type of training should be tailored to the individual needs of each pup and may take some trial and error before you find the most successful approach.
