Don’t be fooled by the Poodle’s fancy haircut – this is a dog for all reasons (and comes in three sizes!). Whether you desire a charming companion, show dog, hunting retriever with a sense of humor (forgives you if you miss a shot), the Poodle fits the bill–and mostly because he or she is bright, alert and trainable. The Poodle originated in Germany, and has become one of the most popular dogs in America. Toys are up to 10 inches high, Miniatures between 10 and 15 inches, and Standards over 15″.
