Poodle

The Poodle is consistently ranked among the most intelligent dog breeds in the world. Available in three sizes (Standard, Miniature, and Toy), Poodles are versatile companions known for their elegant appearance, hypoallergenic coat, and exceptional trainability.

Beneath their sophisticated exterior lies an athletic, eager, and wickedly smart dog. Poodles were originally bred as water retrievers, and they retain their love of water and retrieving to this day. Their iconic coat was originally clipped in specific patterns to help them swim more efficiently while protecting vital organs from cold water.

Poodles excel in virtually any activity they're introduced to, from agility and obedience to therapy work and circus performances. Their desire to please, combined with their intelligence, makes them a joy to train.
