Standard Poodles Puppies - The Intelligent and Playful Dogs Loved By All

"Pets are humanizing. They remind us we have an obligation and responsibility to preserve and nurture and care for all life." - James Cromwell

We all love to keep a pet at our homes, for some reason or the other. Out of all, one of the most popular breeds of pets is the standard poodle dogs. These petite, elegant dogs are believed to have originated in France, but some believe that they may even have roots in Russia. Their name comes from the German word Pudel or Pudelhund, that means splashing or splashing dog. Perhaps the most recognizable dog in the world, standard poodles - and poodles in general - are known for their distinctive fur clips. They are known to be extremely intelligent; and it is because of this, that they were traditionally used as hunting dogs.

Be sure though, that when you get standard poodles puppies, they need to be groomed extensively; they need to be bathed regularly and clipped every six to eight weeks. Furthermore, their ears need to be checked regularly for mites, and their teeth need to be scaled regularly. That is why, if you are thinking of bringing home standard poodles puppies, then you would be better off getting in touch with standard poodles breeders.

The first thing you need to check, when contacting a poodle breeder is whether they are experienced with breeding the breed or not. These breeders will have the right intent to breed a handsome and healthy poodle for the families that get them. And in order to do that, they make sure those standard poodles puppies have healthy parents and grandparents that reach the age of 15, and have enjoyed a good quality life. That is why these standard poodles breeders screen the parents and grandparents for potential inherited diseases that affect purebred dogs, and in particular poodles. These include Hip Dysplasia, Elbow Dysplasia, Von Willebrand's Disease, Sebaceous Adenitis and Neonatal Encephalopathy.

If your standard poodles' breeder takes care of these things, then you will definitely be getting a poodle that is strong, faithful, beautiful and healthy. They are socialized from birth and also receive early house training that includes command lesson and grooming. All these only add to the appeal of standard poodles puppies, whose intelligence and playful nature are sure to sweep you from your feet. So, if you have been longing to get yourself a pet, get home one of these poodles and instill some more fun in your life.
