poodle comes both standard and toy. Poodles have hair like humans - the
hair continues to grow and must be clipped. This breed is considered good
for those with mild allergies. The energetic poodle loves to play.
He is sociable and is usually good with other dogs.
An intuitive animal, the poodle seems to know exactly how you feel.
This can be good and bad - if in an unhappy or stressful environment, the poodle
can become physically sick from worry and anxiety. The poodle needs a home
that is happy and stress-free. Some poodles have been known to be barkers
as well as high strung or anxious. As with all dogs, this is not true of
all poodles.
Training
The poodle is intelligent and
very good at tricks. You have probably seen the poodle in
circuses or on television performing. If training, the poodle
should be socialized early to prevent shyness and promote
sociability.
Exercise

opportunity to let out energy and enjoy the outdoors.
