Characteristics of poodle dogs and care
Poodles are characterized by their luxurious curly coat and slender figure However, not all of them have the same hair, since that the canine organizations in charge of establishing the standards of the breeds determine two types of slightly differentiated coat:
- Kinky, abundant, well-curled hair with a fine, woolly texture.
- Hair in the form of well-defined, compact and woolly strands.
On the other hand, there are also different sizes of poodles:
- Toy poodles (24 cm tall)
- Mini Poodles (28-35 cm tall)
- Medium Poodles (35-45 cm tall)
- Large poodles (45-60 cm tall)
Apart from the differences in hair and size, all poodles are physically proportionate dogs, fine, with long, drooping ears and a very expressive face. Likewise, they are intelligent, curious, active and very faithful. As for the accepted colors, they are black, white, gray and solid brown, as well as fawn.
Care for poodles
Due to the peculiarities of their coat, the care of poodle dogs resides, precisely, in the proper maintenance of their hair. In this way, it is recommended to go to the canine hairdresser to trim the hair and acquire the most suitable hygiene products according to size, color, etc.
About brushing, the ideal is to brush the poodle two or three times a week to avoid the formation of knots. In our article "Types of brushes for dogs" you will find the most suitable brush for poodles.
Names for male poodle dogs
As occurs in many dog breeds, among poodles or poodles there is the so-called sexual dimorphism, so that males tend to be larger than females. However, there are exceptions, since the genetic line directly influences this factor.
When adopting a male dog, one of the biggest concerns of new guardians is marking, since when urinating with the paw raised it is easier for walls and furniture to be damaged. To avoid this, we recommend disinfecting the marked areas with enzymatic products (avoiding bleach and ammonia), educating the dog through positive reinforcement, taking it for a walk and exercising it, and sterilizing it, as this operation reduces 50-60% of cases this type of habits, especially in puppies. See our article on "What is the best age to neuter a dog?" and discover the ideal time to adopt a puppy.
