Description
The Toy Poodle is an elegant, lively, small dog with a profuse, but well-groomed and clipped curly coat. A good Poodle has a square silhouette, with approximately the same length as the height at the withers. It is very amusing and clever. Its innate showmanship, made the Poodle into an excellent circus performer. There are three varieties of Poodle: Toy, Miniature, and Standard. The three sizes are considered one breed and are judged by the same standard. Today, the Poodle is primarily a companion and show dog, though it can learn almost anything.
