Raising a dog involves more than just companionship; there are actually many things the owner needs to do. Unlike plants, dogs require a lot of your time. If you have ample time, keeping a dog can be very rewarding. When problems arise, you need to care for your dog immediately. But before buying a dog, we need to understand what this dog looks like. Today, let's take a look at the characteristics of a Poodle and see what it really looks like.

The Poodle is also known as the "Noble Lady Dog". It got this name because, in the past, it was usually owned by wealthy women, which is why it was called a Poodle. Since this dog was not commonly kept by ordinary people, it was also called the "Noble Lady Dog". So, what are the characteristics of a Poodle?

The weight of male and female Poodles is generally about 40 to 64 pounds and usually doesn't vary much. The lifespan of a Poodle is around 13 to 15 years. Most Poodles have curly, relatively coarse fur, so this is something to be aware of. Their heads are relatively small. People usually let the hair on their heads grow longer. The distance between the two eyes on the face is relatively wide, and the color inside the eyes is fairly dark. The eyes are trimmed into a round shape, and the area below the eyes is recessed inward, which is very distinctive. Their mouths are narrow and long, not particularly large. The neck below is relatively thick.

Regarding intelligence, Poodles rank second among all dog breeds worldwide, with the Border Collie ranking first. Besides intelligence, Poodles are especially loyal to their owners. They are also good at communicating with other dogs and humans, and are very clever, making them very popular. Poodles have a noble personality and are very gentle, not easily angered, so you don’t need to worry about biting.

If you are considering raising this type of dog, you should also consider the financial aspect, which is the biggest issue. If you have sufficient funds, it’s fine to keep one as a pet. But if your budget is limited, I would recommend only admiring them from afar, as it does cost real money.
