Questions & Answers
A Poodle is a spirited and intelligent breed of dog that is known for its unique and fashionably cut appearance. Originally bred in Germany as a water retriever, the Poodle gained popularity throughout Europe and made the transition to the United States sometime during the mid-1800s. Poodles come in three sizes: Standard, Miniature, and Toy. They are often quick learners and have an of aptitude for activities such as obedience, agility, and even search and rescue. Poodles have a friendly personality and often bond with their families.
Poodles are known to be one of the most popular breeds of dogs due to their highly valued traits, which include being non-shedding. By being non-shedding, this means that they do not lose their hair the way that other breeds might do. Although regular brushing and grooming of the coat are recommended, having a non-shedding breed of dog such as the Poodle keeps your home and clothing free from the persistent shedding of other breeds.
Poodles should not be fed table scraps as they may contain unhealthy ingredients or ingredients that may be difficult to digest for poodles. In addition, they should not be given bones, as these could splinter and result in an intestinal obstruction. Other common human foods like avocado, chocolate, raisins, onions, garlic, and grapes are toxic and should also be avoided. Moreover, foods that are high in sugar content, such as cookies, cakes and sweets, are unhealthy and should be avoided as these can cause obesity, diabetes, and other health issues in poodles.
Yes, Poodles do have special requirements. Poodles require regular grooming to keep their signature long, flowing coats looking their best as well as weekly brushing to remove dirt and mats. In addition to regular grooming, Poodles need to be kept active with regular exercise and mental stimulation, whether long walks or jogging, agility courses, or learning new tricks. Because of their high intelligence and energy, Poodles are highly prone to boredom and destructive behavior if left alone or under-stimulated.
Poodles are typically considered medium-sized dogs, based on American Kennel Club's categories. Their size averages around 15 inches and can weigh up to 70 pounds. Although they are not as large as some of the other breeds, poodles can be quite large and seem bigger than they really are. Because poodles have a low center of gravity, they are more likely to be mistaken for a larger breed. Additionally, their fluffy coat can make them appear bigger than they really are.
Poodles love to swim! They have a natural affinity for the water and enjoy the physical activity that comes with it. While some poodles may take some time to adjust to swimming, most take to it like a fish to water! Many owners use swimming as a way to keep their poodle active and entertained, while providing mental stimulation. Swimming is a great way to exercise a poodle as it provides a low-impact option with a broad range of physical benefits such as promoting cardiovascular health, improving joint mobility, strengthening muscles, increasing stamina, and providing balance and agility.
Poodles make wonderful family pets and can be amazing playmates for children. Not only are they friendly and affectionate, they often display an impeccable sense of humor. With their high intelligence, poodles are easily trainable and can become well-versed in learning tricks to play with the kids. They have a low-to-non-shedding coat, which makes them a great choice for those who suffer from allergies or have sensitive skin. Poodles have a lot of physical and mental energy so they can keep up with the kids on walks or going to the park.
The exact amount of training time for Poodles varies depending on your specific goals for the breed as well as the age and skill level of your dog. Generally speaking, a minimum of 10-15 minutes of structured training every day is recommended for this breed. Of course, more time is better and if you're working with an older or inexperienced Poodle, 20-30 minutes per day would be beneficial. If you plan to compete with your Poodle, you'll need to realistically devote a minimum of 45 minutes per day to their training.
