About Poodle

Breed History

Poodles were originally bred in Germany as hunting dogs who worked with their owners in retrieving waterfowl. The Poodle is widely known to be the most intelligent dog breed in the world. They train with ease and enjoy one on one engagement with their human best friend. There are three types of Poodles that the American Kennel Club recognizes. The most common and well-known is the standard Poodle, followed by the Miniature Poodle, and then the Toy Poodle. Throughout the Poodle’s long history, they have been used in the breeding process for more than sixty other types of dogs.

Personality and Temperament

Poodles are social and outgoing dogs that tend to have a warm demeanor. They are mentally alert and very observant of their surroundings. Poodles have a very eager-to-please personality and enjoy the praise they receive after mastering a new trick. This breed is an exceptional family dog and gets along well with children and other animals in the home. They also easily adjust to apartment-style or conventional-style homes.

 

Appearance and Grooming

The Poodle’s coat is naturally curly and coarse. It comes in nearly one dozen colors which include white, black, apricot, cream, and brown to name just a few. A unique feature of this dog’s coat is that it will grow until it is trimmed. This makes routine grooming very important. The most effective way to brush the Poodle’s fur is by first using a light mist of a detangler solution for dogs. Using a pin brush, gently brush its fur and work out any knots. A bi-weekly bath is also suggested, which will keep him looking and feeling his very best.

Care and Feeding

Poodles younger than four months in age should be provided with four meals a day. When they reach five months in age, they do best with three meals per day. At six months old, they should have two meals per day spaced apart in twelve-hour intervals. Poodles also require thorough and routine teeth cleaning. It is suggested that they have their teeth brushed at least three times every week.

 

Breed Size and Life Expectancy

The largest Poodle is the Standard Poodle who stands between fifteen and twenty-two inches tall.

 

  • The Standard Poodle weighs forty-five to seventy pounds.
  • The mid-sized Poodle, also known as a Miniature Poodle, tends to stand eleven to fifteen inches tall.

This is a wonderful place to pick up a healthy and clean pet. Not your kind of dog that is at the pound. I have personally visited some of the sources for these dogs. They are NOT coming from puppy mills. These dogs are living better than me. I really hate that there are so many people who automatically have that opinion of all pet stores. These dogs are loved and cared for there entire lives so far. Shame on you if you have not even visited the store and put negative comments here. On that note have a blessed day.
