Poodles are known for at least four hundred years and are certainly among the most popular breeds. They are well-known as graceful, noble and good natured dogs, highly intelligent and easy to train. Their characteristic appearance and cheerfulness make them especially recognizable, and black and brown Royal Standard Poodles are probably the most popular of all.

Of course, you will find white poodles, as well as those in other solid colors, or even those that have different color combinations, but only solid colored ones can become show dogs. Silver and blue, apricot or cream, it really doesn't matter which color you prefer, all are beautiful, although brown and black ones are especially popular lately.

Poodles of this type are medium to large by size, and they have lovely thick coat and flat, adorable hanging ears. They have well-proportioned bodies and legs, with small paws and long tails. They shed so little that it can be said that they do not shed at all, and this is certainly important allergy suffering people. Considering that they do not shed, they have to be clipped, usually every six weeks. And they obviously cannot live outside the house.

These dogs live up to 15 years, if healthy. This is one old breed, and there are some issues to be concerned about.
