Poodle Did You Know?
- The denominations Standard, Miniature, and Toy are used to describe size
only. All the Poodles are one breed, governed by the same standard.
- The Toy Poodle is known for superior intelligence and exceptional learning
ability.
- The Poodle clip is not merely decorative (though it may seem that way
now); it is in fact a necessary clip meant to protect the joints and vital
organs in cold water.
- The Toy Poodle achieved great popularity in France and was known worldwide
as a "trick dog." They were court favorites during the reign of
Louis XVI and Queen Anne.
- The Toy Poodle, like all Poodles, possesses wonderful swimming ability;
the coat is adapted to water, and will cord if left to grow naturally.
- Grover Cleveland owned a Poodle (although some reports say it was a Pekingese).
