Discover Beautiful And Charming Poodle Parti Pups
Parti coloring is white with spots or patches of any other acceptable solid color including brown, red, apricot, black, blue, silver. They're beautiful and flashy, and gaining in popularity. A dedicated group of breeders is bringing back this original coloring to the United States. Poodle parti pups share the same personality and health as their solid colored relatives.
Artwork from the 1500's all the way through to the early 19000's shows a two colored coat to be the original poodle coloring. The first dog book published in the United States in 1856 features an un-clipped parti colored poodle. The AKC considers the coloring a disqualifying fault. Not so the United Kennel Club which allows parti colored poodles to be shown in all venues.
This charming and cheerful dog is a loyal companion. They don't like to be alone. They need to be a part of their human pack. They need exercise and mental challenges to satisfy their intelligence and curiosity. Keep your companion pet engaged with walks, games, and toys. Poodles also excel at obedience, agility, tracking, and hunting. They make excellent therapy dogs. They excel in the show ring with their sociable nature and regal bearing.
Poodles are easily housebroken, obedience trained, and are affectionate with children. Most are good with other dogs. Standards are active and energetic. Due to their large size they require more exercise than their smaller relatives. Standards are more reserved around, but not unfriendly to strangers. With daily walks and playtime, Miniatures and Toys can be great apartment pets. Poodles are one of the healthiest and long living breeds. The lifespan of a Standard is 12 years. Miniatures and Toys average 14 to 16 years.
Most breed registries require certain clips for show dogs. Show handlers must brush their dogs coat daily to keep it in proper condition. The dense curly coat becomes a tangled mess without regular grooming. Most pet owners choose a short clip for easy care. Every 6 to 8 weeks, poodles should be clipped, bathed, and any hair growing in the ear canal removed. There's very little shedding. Dog lovers with allergies may find this breed the perfect solution to their dilemma.
The breed's story begins in Germany. The poodle was originally bred to accompany hunters, retrieving prey from the water. They were also used as military dogs beginning in the 17th century. The French fell in love with the poodle making it their national breed. As they became increasingly popular as companion pets, smaller dogs were favored.
Buy a registered dog from a reputable dealer to be sure you're buying a purebred from a healthy lineage. Health issues that affect this breed include Cushing's disease, Addison's disease, hypothyroidism, progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), cataracts, glaucoma. Miniatures and Toys are susceptible to tracheal collapse and luxating patella. Standards are at risk for hip dysplasia and bloat.
Reputable breeders provide documentation that parents and grandparents are free of health issues. Buyers should receive copies of genetic testing performed on the parent dogs. These should include Optigen testing for PRA, and Canine Eye Registry (CERF) certification. Standards should have certification that parents are free of hip dysplasia and thyroid problems. Miniatures and Toys should have certification that parents are free from knee problems.
