Poodles are not only beautiful to behold, but they also have a most endearing type of personality, which is what makes them much sought after today. As for its physical characteristics, it is a breed that has two different varieties of coats, which are the corded and curly coats, though the corded coated Poodle is pretty rarely found in the United States. Poodles also have three main sizes that are Standard, Miniature as well as Toy and thus will suit different lifestyles as well. Also, Poodles come in a variety of colors though black and also white are their most common colors.

There is a lot to praise as far as the personality of the Poodle goes including his uncanny ability to grasp things easily and quickly, and Poodles are also very energetic and are often clownish because they are able to perform numerous cute tricks that will never fail to please everyone that comes into contact with them. The intelligence of the Poodle is truly remarkable and he is also very adaptable and versatile and has changed considerably from originally being a hunting dog to the great family pet that he is today.

The Poodle does however require being intensively groomed and because unlike other dogs, he won’t shed too much hair, it adds to the impression that the Poodle is not very dog-like at all. However, the thing that strikes you the most about the Poodle personality is his amazing intelligence which is something that the breed has always been famous for. In addition, Poodles are also very versatile and they adapt very well to different situations and environments and can serve many a role that in turn depends on its current situation.

Standard Poodles, however, require a bit more exercising than do the toy and miniature versions and the reason for this is their bigger size. However, Poodles are also quite mellow and do not jump about too much nor do they act too nervous and they have an affinity for people as well as children. Also, you will not face any trouble in training your Poodle though he does not like being caged, and is, in fact quite a free-bird if truth be told.

Though Poodles are docile creatures, when left to play with small children, it is still advisable to supervise them because in the presence of children who may not know how to treat with a Poodle, it could lead to him being ill treated, thus leading to the Poodle losing its trust in children and acting unpredictably as a consequence.

It goes without saying that Poodles are excellent pet dogs that possess a good nature and are also very intelligent dogs that can adapt well to any surroundings. Poodles love human company and so require a lot of attention and love. And once they are showered with love and affection will soon develop a strong bond with their owners that will last throughout their lifetime.

Another feature about the breed is that a Poodle has hair that grows much like human hair grows and it continues growing, unlike other dogs whose hair stops growing when they have reached a certain length.

He is also a one-man and one-family pet that can often become very shy when in the presence of strangers and will even take to barking if he does not know someone. However, when given time to settle into his new home, the Poodle will make an excellent pet and also a good guard dog.
