What Poodles are like to live with

The Royal Kennel Club calls the Poodle a "glamorous, intelligent breed descended from European duck hunters". It says the breed originates in Germany as a water retriever, and that the famous trim is "traditional and very practical": the hindquarters were clipped to help the dog swim, and bands of hair were left on the joints and tail tip for protection from cold.

Where can I adopt a Poodle in Edinburgh?

With the rescue that has the dog. Today the Poodles on this page are with Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home (2). Open a profile and apply to that rescue: each one runs its own application, home check and adoption fee. We don't rehome animals ourselves.

Do Poodles shed?

The Royal Kennel Club lists all three Poodle sizes as not shedding, and Dogs Trust describes low shedding, but the coat needs grooming every day and professional clipping from time to time. Doodle Trust says no dog is allergy friendly, so if someone at home has allergies, ask the rescue whether you can spend time with the dog first.

What is the difference between Standard, Miniature and Toy Poodles?

Size. The Royal Kennel Club recognises three varieties that share one breed standard: the Standard is over 38 cm at the shoulder, the Miniature between 28 and 38 cm, and the Toy under 28 cm. All three need up to an hour of exercise a day and grooming every day.

Are Poodles good with children?

It depends on the dog, not the breed. Today the rescues mark 2 of the 2 Poodles listed in and around Edinburgh as able to live with children. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue what age of children the dog could live with.
