Buying a Standard Poodle
Buying a Standard Poodle is a big decision, and it is important to feel confident throughout the entire process. On Get a Pet, you can compare current listings from both breeders and private sellers, see price, age, and location, and contact sellers directly.
All listings show essential information about the dog, so you can easily decide whether it fits your lifestyle and circumstances.
What is the typical temperament of a Standard Poodle with family members and strangers?
They are usually affectionate, people focused, and highly responsive to their owners, while initially reserved or aloof with strangers. With proper socialization they tend to be polite and confident rather than shy or aggressive, and they often form very close bonds with their primary caregivers.
How much exercise does a Standard Poodle really need each day?
This is an athletic, high-energy dog that typically needs at least 60 to 90 minutes of daily physical exercise plus some mental work. Regular off-leash running in safe areas, structured walks, and brain games like scent work or training sessions help prevent restlessness and unwanted behaviors.
Are Standard Poodles hypoallergenic and do they shed?
They have a low-shedding, curly coat that often suits people with mild allergies better than many other breeds, but no dog is truly hypoallergenic. Dander, saliva, and individual sensitivities still matter, so spending time with the breed before committing is important for allergy sufferers.
How difficult is grooming and coat maintenance for a Standard Poodle?
Their coat requires regular, lifelong maintenance that many owners underestimate. Most need professional grooming every 4 to 8 weeks plus frequent brushing at home to prevent mats, and owners must choose a practical pet clip if they do not want to maintain elaborate show styles.
What common health problems are seen in Standard Poodles?
They have increased risk for hip dysplasia, several inherited eye conditions, bloat (gastric dilatation volvulus), and autoimmune diseases such as Addison’s disease. Responsible breeders screen for specific issues and owners should learn the early signs of bloat and endocrine problems in particular.
Is a Standard Poodle a good choice for an active family with children?
They often do well with respectful children because of their playful nature and stamina, provided they are well socialized and trained. Their size and energy level suit active households that enjoy outdoor activities more than very sedentary homes or families wanting a low-interaction companion.
How trainable are Standard Poodles and what type of training works best?
They are highly intelligent and generally rank among the easiest breeds to train, but can be sensitive and quickly bored by repetition. Positive reinforcement, variety in exercises, and regular mental challenges such as advanced obedience, tricks, or dog sports work particularly well.
Can a Standard Poodle live comfortably in an apartment or smaller home?
They can adapt to apartment living if their exercise and mental needs are met consistently every day. Without enough structured activity and interaction, they may become vocal, anxious, or destructive regardless of how small or large the living space is.
Do Standard Poodles have strong water and retrieving instincts?
The breed was developed as a water retriever, so many individuals enjoy swimming and naturally take to water-related activities. Some still show good retrieving drive and can excel in waterfowl work, dock diving, or similar sports when given appropriate training and exposure.
How long do Standard Poodles usually live, and what can owners do to support a long lifespan?
Average life expectancy is often around 12 to 14 years, with some living longer under good care. Choosing a health-tested puppy, keeping weight under control, providing regular exercise, dental care, and routine veterinary checkups all play a significant role in promoting longevity.
