Well the breed standard for standard poodles does not specify a limit.I have been told that there are people out there that go through alot of dogs because they go over the standard. Is there a way to know if a particular breeder usually breeds in size?![]()
The AKC size standard is measured at the withers or shoulder blades, toys 10 in and under, minis over 10 but under 15 in and standards over 15 in.Well the breed standard for standard poodles does not specify a limit.
So I am not sure what you mean ?
A local breeder out her had a big stallion dog ! he was very large but correct in every way he finished quickly. I am not sure how tall he was but he had to be 27 or more inches.
Enzo is small bitches usually out size him. I think Enzo is 24 at the shoulder. I normally see males 25-26 in the ring.
so you asking about mini's and toys then. I just assume you wanted to know about standards lolThe AKC size standard is measured at the withers or shoulder blades, toys 10 in and under, minis over 10 but under 15 in and standards over 15 in.
Yes, I am looking at the toy poodle breeders. I have toys and of the 3 I own, only one is in size. When I was at a show, one of the handlers told me about how people go through alot of dogs because of them going over the size requirement. I was just wondering how you can find a breeder that is consistent in breeding close to the AKC standards.so you asking about mini's and toys then. I just assume you wanted to know about standards lol
