A little Standard Poodle History

Historians believe the Standard Poodle is descended from a water retriever in Germany.  Later on the Poodle gained national attention as a hunting and a circus dog because of their intelligence. 

The Standard Poodle is a unique breed. Breed historians believe the Standard Poodle is descended from a water retriever in Germany known as the pudel. The word poodle most likely came from the German pudel or pudelin, which means splash in the water. There is also belief that the poodle is a direct descendent of the Water Dog of England and also the Irish Water Spaniel.

The Poodle gained national attention in a hunting and later, as circus dog because of their intelligence. Out of the three varieties of poodles the toy, Miniature, and Standard, the Standard Poodle is the oldest of the three.

The Poodle has developed a reputation for its distinct coat and hairstyles. Because of their intelligence and the fact they do not shed they are becoming a large part in new breeds coming out. Like the Labradoodle and Goldendoodle.

The Poodle ancestors were know as hardworking water dogs, retrieving and accompanying their hunter-masters in the field, and were good at what they did. Now they are more as a companion.

The first American Kennel Club official standard for the Poodle was approved in 1901. It has had many revisions over the years. The Kennel Club in England wrote its revision in 1886. All three varieties of the Poodle existed then but they were not distinguished by their height but by weight.

The Standard Poodle is known for his elegant in appearance and also his intelligent and alert expression. We know that the poodles history goes way backFeature Articles, it is hard to map out the precise history of this breed.
