There are three standard types of Poodles often referred to including toy, miniature, and standard. While the toy and miniature are much smaller in size, they mainly have the same physical looks and breed characteristics. Elegant is a name that often comes to mind when referring to a Poodle, always carrying itself in a proud and distinctive manner with a long head and muzzle and wide hanging ears that hang close to dark eyes. The most distinctive physical feature of a Poodle is the densely curled fur that needs to be carefully, and regularly, groomed.
