you’re thinking about bringing a poodle
in to your home what i’ve done is i’ve
created a list of the top ten things i
think that you need to buy before
getting a poodle and i’ve put those in
the description box below but without
further ado let’s get straight to the
video the poodle has been around for
years and was originally used as water
retriever the name poodle is thought to
be from the old German word poo down
which translates roughly as to splash in
water the free sizes of poodle have also
existed for centuries with the larger
sizes working in the field and the
smaller sizes being kept as companions
and the toy variety sometimes known as
the sleeve poodle was kept in the
sleeves of its owners and was used as a
hand warmer the taught your sleeve
poodle could be 24 to 28 centimetres
walk away in 3 to 6 kilos the miniature
28 to 38 centimetres 7 to 8 kilos and
the standard poodle is often always over
38 centimetres and can weigh upwards of
30 to 35 kilos poodles have an accent
even textured and curled single coat
which does not shed a great deal making
it good choice for people with allergies
its coat is always a solid colour and
comes in a variety of colors including
black white cream silver apricot formed
red and brown Standard Poodles can live
up to 13 years of age with toy and
miniature living on average 15 years
they’re quite Hardy breed of dog with
bloat being the main health issue in
Standard Poodle regular grooming of the
coat is an absolute necessity to prevent
matting this will take a considerable
amount of time on the part of the owner
who must be dedicated to doing this for
the dog professional help is usually
required at least every three months and
these coats must be taken into account
when deciding to own a poodle as a very
intelligent dog poodles can get bored
quite easily if not enough mental and
physical stimulation is provided this
needs to be in the form of exercise play
learning and obedience the poodle is
very capable of learning new commands
and has a talent for learning tricks the
reason why along with its showy
appearance is it that used to be used on
a regular basis in the circus they are
playful patient and loyal to the family
but can be reserved with strangers until
they get too
the poodle has a high energy and drive
even the toy variety and requires at
least two walks per day and it can
become destructive if an outlet for this
energy is not given do not make the
mistake of thinking that the toy poodle
is not energetic while of course it does
not need to walk as far on a daily basis
as its larger counterpart it still needs
a structured exercise routine the only
real comment on difference with regards
to the size is that the toy size does
need careful handling as it is quite
small and cannot tolerate too much raw
horseplay as it could be easily injured
