An elegant, highly intelligent breed known for its curly coat and exceptional trainability.

The Poodle is a highly intelligent and versatile breed known for its distinctive curly coat and graceful appearance. Originally developed as a water retriever, Poodles are athletic, eager to learn, and excel in activities such as obedience, agility, and retrieving. Poodles come in three sizes — Standard, Miniature, and Toy — but all share the same intelligent temperament and loyal personality. They are affectionate with their families and thrive when given mental stimulation, training, and regular activity. Their low-shedding coat makes them a popular choice for many households, though regular grooming is required to maintain their signature curls. With proper training, exercise, and care, Poodles are adaptable companions that can thrive in many different living environments.
