Standard Poodles have a goofy streak and love to play. They form strong bonds with their family and are very eager to please. Because of this they are highly trainable and love to learn. They are good dogs for novice owners and adapt well to apartment living. They are affectionate with their family, kid and dog friendly, and friendly towards strangers. They are considered hypoallergenic and do not shed like a normal dogs do. Meet Soku. He is black with white markings. He is such a hoot to be around. His personality really shows in some of his pictures. He is a very outgoing loveable baby boy. You can not go wrong with this guy. His mom is black in color and weighs around 50-55lbs and his dad is a light caramel latte color and around 70lbs. He is being raised indoor around children, other dogs, and cats on our farm. He will come home to you up to date on his puppy shots and de wormings. We started house and crate training around 4 1/2 weeks of age and bathing at 2 weeks of age as well. By starting him at a young age it really goes a long way for when he gets older. Introducing this at a young age imprints them with good habits as they get older. He is a very smart puppy who picks up things easily and is doing great with all his training. He is house and crate trained as long as you let him out on a regular basis. He will come with AKC registration, puppy informational packet, written health guarantees, harness, leash, toy and shot and worming up to date with written records. He is ready for his new home now. We will not hold without a deposit. We do not accept checks of any kind. We accept cash or Venmo. Deposits are nonrefundable unless something happens to him while in my care then you would receive the deposit back or transfer it to another puppy if one is still available. So please make 100% sure you want him before placing a deposit on him. Text me if you would like to see a video of him or have any questions about him at 816-529-2783. We look forward to talking with you.

About Poodle - Standard Puppies
About Poodle - Standard Puppies
Are Standard Poodles a good breed to own?
France has been officially recognized as the Poodle’s country of origin, but the Poodle’s earlier ancestors came from central Asia. The German variety has probably influenced the modern breed most (‘Poodle’ is German for ‘splash’ or ‘puddle’). In 18th and 19th century Europe, the Poodle served a wide variety of purposes, including duck hunting, guiding, and later circus performing, from whence the modern grooming style likely arose. The Poodle became a popular pet for the French aristocracy, and in time was officially adopted as the national dog. Poodles were imported to America in the 20th century. They slowly rose in popularity and eventually became the country’s most popular dog. Famous Poodles include author John Steinbeck’s dog Charley, subject of the book ‘Travels with Charley: In Search of America’, and Weird Al’s Poodle Bela, who…uhm… sat on his head for the album cover of ‘Poodle Hat.’ Full-grown, they typically weigh 12-55 pounds and stand 10-15 inches tall.
