Poodle

Poodles are distinguished by their elegant appearance, intelligence, and versatility. They come in three sizes—Standard, Miniature, and Toy—each with its own unique charm. Standard Poodles typically stand 15 inches or taller and weigh 45 to 70 pounds, while Miniatures stand 10 to 15 inches tall and weigh 15 to 17 pounds, and Toys are under 10 inches tall and weigh about 4 to 6 pounds. Poodles have a dense, curly coat that can be groomed into various styles.

Temperamentally, Poodles are known for their intelligence, playfulness, and affectionate nature towards their families. They are highly trainable and excel in obedience and agility sports, owing to their quick learning ability and eagerness to please. Poodles are generally good with children and other pets, making them excellent family pets. They are also hypoallergenic, shedding minimally and suitable for individuals with allergies.

Poodles thrive in environments where they receive mental stimulation and regular exercise. They enjoy being active and participating in activities with their owners, whether it's playing games, going for walks, or learning new tricks. 

Poodles are adaptable to various living situations, including apartments, as long as they receive enough attention and exercise.
