I have one big dog (golden retriever), who all of the poodles love and get along with great. I also have cats that get along wonderfully with all of the poodles (adults and puppies). As long as you do not have an aggressive pet that is not going to accept a new pet, there shouldn't be any problems getting a poodle puppy to fit right in!

Toy poodles are small enough to take with you in the car just about anywhere. They travel very well. If your dog gets carsick in the beginning, start with short trips and work your way up to longer rides. They will outgrow the problem. If the dog is small enough, he or she can travel in the cabin of an airplane with you in a soft carrier, as well. Lots of over-the-road truck drivers have poodles as pets who travel with them everywhere. See similar questions...

Poodle puppies who have been properly socialized will love children. Adult poodles who have never been around children may not like them, however. It all depends on the way the dog has been raised. Puppies are easy to mold however you see fit. In general, a poodle makes a wonderful pet for a family with children. See similar questions...

Poodles are one of the most intelligent breeds of dogs. As long as the trainer is determined and consistent in training, a puppy should train quickly. Poodles can learn to do tricks easily, too. See similar questions...

Poodles will bark if you allow them to. You need to discipline your pet and tell them “no” when they are doing something they shouldn't or something you don't want them to do. It is very easy to train a poodle not to bark A normal poodle doesn't typically bark much, anyway, except when they are playing or warning you a stranger is approaching. See similar questions...

It is not a good idea to leave a small poodle outside for long periods of time, but they can handle cold temperatures for short amounts of time (i.e., to use the bathroom). See similar questions...

Puppies go through a series of vaccinations just like babies get their immunizations. Your puppy should get his or her first vaccinations at 6-8 weeks of age. Vaccinations then continue every 3-4 weeks until they are 16 weeks old. Once they reach 16 weeks and have received a series of at least 3-4 vaccinations, your puppy can be taken out into public areas without concern. Until this time, do not take your puppy anywhere in the public that an ill dog might have been (i.e. See similar questions...

Poodles come in three registered sizes. Standard is the large breed poodle. Miniature is the mid-sized poodle. Toy is the smallest poodle breed. Breeders break down the toy poodle size into three categories, as well. The tiniest of the toy poodle sizes is the teacup. Tiny toy is the next size up. These two classifications (teacup and tiny toy) are just terms breeders use to identify size. Dogs in both of these size classes are registered as toy poodles. See similar questions...

long as a teacup poodle is healthy from the beginning, they should have no more health problems than a poodle that is twice their size. Hypoglycemia is the main concern in tiny dogs. As long as they eat well and are living in a stress-free environment, they should never have any hypoglycemia attacks. See similar questions...

A "pet" is: a domesticated animal. An animal who a human being has interjected into a humanly-altered environment. That is, it's all the same world, but we took the existing land, earth, water, trees, fields, randomness and wildness, and built sturdy structures on top of, inside of, adjacent to it all, in order to better inhabit and survive the elements and factors of living on this planet. We exist here, and the Animal and Plant Kingdoms exist here as well. See similar questions...

Toy Poodles (under 10 lbs), Mini Poodles (10 ? 25 lbs) and Standard Poodles (40 lbs ? 60 lbs). Most of our dogs are adult dogs. The average age of our rescue poodles is 5 years old and many of our dogs are 8 years or older. Sometimes we rescue poodle mixes. Please note that puppies rarely come into our program.

Occasionally. Due to Poodle Rescue of New England's emphasis on safety, we take great care when placing poodles into homes with children. Poodles who are strays, who have had no exposure to children or who were given up due to characteristics that are incompatible with children cannot be placed into these homes. We will not place a poodle into a home with children under the age of ten. See similar questions...

Note - Flaming Poodles are no longer in the catalog but we like to keep this question around to make the list more interesting. It's a long and drawn-out story. The short version is that they were named in honor of a character created late one night at the Lopez Island Jugglefest in 1999. When we went to name our in-house fire props, "Fire Meteorites" didn't have enough zing to it, and neither did anything else we could come up with. Someone suggested Flaming Poodles, and the name stuck. See similar questions...

The majority of our pets come from outlying animal control facilities where they have run out of time. These facilities have limited means to hold pets for an extended period of time, and therefore, so many adoptable dogs are euthanisized because the facility is full or the pet is not considered adoptable after the required holding period. We also accept a small number of pets from owners who can no longer keep them. We do not accept stray animals. See similar questions...

Atlanta Pet Rescue is mainly a small dog rescue. Most of our available pets weigh less than 25 pounds. We accept dogs that pass a temperament test. These pets do not show signs of aggression towards people or other animals. We do accept dogs over 25 pounds on occasion. See similar questions...

No. It would probably be illegal to judiciously sedate your pet. This needs to be authorized by a licensed vet. If your pet becomes unruly and needs sedation, we will contact your vet. A pet can have a bad night, but if your pet generally needs to be sedated for boarding, we are not for you. If your pet requires a sedative for thunderstorms or fireworks that is fine, they will be administered. Many clients have commented that their pets were sedated while at the kennel.
