Hypoallergenic Qualities
Hypoallergenic qualities
Poodles are often cited as a hypoallergenic dog breed. The poodle's individual hair follicles have an active growth period that is longer than that of
many other breeds of dogs; combined with the tightly curled coat, which slows the loss of dander and dead hair by trapping it in the curls, a
individual poodle may release less dander and hair into the environment. In addition, most poodles are frequently brushed and bathed to keep them looking their best; this not only removes hair and dander but also controls the other potent allergen, saliva.
Although hair, dander, and saliva can be minimized, they are still present and can stick to "clothes and the carpets and furnishings in your home"; inhaling them, or being licked by the dog, can trigger a reaction in a sensitive person. A vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter can help clear dander floating in the air.
The word hypoallergenic, when referring to a dog, is also a misconception; all dogs shed. Poodles shed hair in minimal amounts, and also release dander, but are not as likely to trigger allergies as much as many other breeds.

Training
Behavior
Good behaviour and obedience need to start early.
Poodles are very intelligent and need to be shown who is the boss. They will try and own you if you are not firm enough.
Diet
Our pups are raised on good quality puppy biscuits and this is important to ensure they receive all the vitamins, protien and nutrients they require to help them grow into strong health dogs.
Good Nutrition can increase your dogs life expectancy.
We find Advance seems to be our favourite as it is Australian made and very good quality with a good range for when they get older.
It is recommended that you feed your pup 3 times a day up to 4 months and then 2 times a day until 6 months. Always leave fresh water and we like to leave dry biscuits out for them so if they feel hungry they have something to eat. Poodles only tend to eat what they require and do not over eat especially if it is always made availble to them.
Raw or cooked mince and kangaroo meat are also recommended as well as raw bones such as chicken necks, lamb flaps(with fat removed), chicken carcass etc. It is recommended only to give them certain bones under your supervision whilst they are puppies.
Never give your dogs cooked bones of any type.
It is also very important to stick to what the pup has been raised on and if you wish to change it must be done gradually to avoid stomach upset.
Puppies if fed good quality dry puppy biscuits should not need milk but if you feel the need to give it milk for a little while longer it is recommended that you give them goats milk as it is the closest to its mothers milk.
