Questions & Answers
Poodles are one of the most beloved breeds due to their intelligence and versatility, but one of the most interesting things about them is their interesting history. Poodles have their roots in Germany, where they were originally bred for water retrieval. While poodles may look prim and proper, they are actually water dogs with hunting and retrieving capabilities. Despite their fancy-looking coats, poodles were historically kept by commoners for centuries, and were seen as a lower-class dog breed.
Yes, Poodles are considered to be hypoallergenic. This means that individuals with allergies to canine dander, saliva, or other allergens contained in a pet's fur can, with proper grooming and maintenance, still keep a Poodle as a pet without suffering from allergy symptoms. The Poodle's coat does not shed, but instead remains curled in tight, kinky rings. This limits how much loose hair will enter a home environment and trigger an allergic reaction.
Poodles do have some special dietary needs due to their unique physiology. Since poodles belong to the non-sporting group of dogs, which tend to be more prone to obesity, they should typically be feed lower calorie diets with moderate amounts of fat. Do not feed poodles human food as it could contain ingredients that are detrimental to their health. Poodles also do not require large amounts of protein, but instead require a balanced diet of carbohydrates, proteins and fats.
Before getting a Poodle, it is important to make sure you have the necessary items to take care of the pup. This includes food and water dishes, collar and leash, bedding, brushing and grooming supplies (brushes, combs, toothbrush, and nail clippers), toys, a crate or carrier, and puppy pads. Additionally, it is important to ensure that you've done your research and are familiar with breed-specific health concerns associated with the Poodle, as well as identifying a veterinarian to provide ongoing medical care.
Poodles are considered to be small dogs, depending on the size variety. The 'standard' size of a poodle is the largest at 15-22 inches in height at the shoulder. The 'Toy' variety is the smallest, ranging from 10-15 inches in height. There is also the Miniature Poodle, which falls in between the two. These smaller sizes make Poodles an ideal companion dog for those who have limited living space. They are also a very intelligent breed, which makes them easy to train.
Poodles have been known to love swimming. In fact, poodles are often seen playing in and around bodies of water. This is because poodles are a water breed, and they are believed to have originated from herding and fetching waterfowl. Poodles are great swimmers, and often excel in water sports such as dock jumping and agility events. Additionally, they are very good at treading water. Since they have a wiry coat that does not absorb water, they are able to stay afloat and enjoy a good splash.
Poodles can be a great choice for first-time owners. They are highly trainable, have a lot of energy, and are known for being smart and attentive. Standard Poodles, in particular, for instance, make great hiking companions and are generally very active. Although they have a strong desire to please their owners, Poodles do require some daily exercise and regular grooming. If you are looking for a pup that loves to be around you all the time and needs very little maintenance, then a Poodle may be an ideal companion for you.
Training a Poodle may depend on the individual Poodle and his/her personality, as with any dog breeds. Generally, Poodles are considered to be highly intelligent and eager to please, which can make training them easier than other breeds. Additionally, their natural curiosity can motivate them to perform whatever task is asked of them, which can also keep them engaged in the process. That said, Poodles have their own independent spirit and may require a more consistent and creative approach to training than other breeds.
