well most dogs it would be ideal to brush every day..
I am no expert but that looks like a low mantanence poodle cut, my cousins poodle cassey is cut like that I think they take her for a hair cut every 6 weeks but I'm sure you could learn to do it your self.
Bathing.. bathe when ever they get pretty dirty or smelly, otherwise my aunt bathes Cassey once a week but I'm sure you could go longer.
Brushing Im pretty sure you need to brush every day or they mat up, What my aunt uses on Cassie is a slicker brush, a wide tooth comb, a dematting comb, and since they go for hikes alot she hhs a flea comb too to check for the little buggers but I think you can skip on that if fleas arnt common in your area.
But I would really wait to get some advice from the others on here, my experience is with bordercollies but this year Im getting a poodle. Id also ask a breeder about what they use.
That poodle in the picture is a Red poodle by the way, incase you are wondering what that color is. Before you get a poodle you should reaaaaaaaaalllly look into colors and see if your breeders pups have a fading gene... pup color is not always the same color after 1 year.
Not all reds are red. reds come from reds otherwise they could be apricot.
Brown pups could fade to a silverish carmel color
Black pups can be Silver, Blue,
so you need to make sure you know what your getting, some breeders sell by what color the pup is and you get something else later in the long run.
Like people all poodles fade in color, but there is a differnce between age fading and fading at 1 year...
Just warning you cuz Cassie was bought as a super dark brown and she is one year old now and has silver hairs popping up everywhere and looks like an older dog..
Others on here could probably point you out to a good breeder for what ever color u choose.
