About 60% white here in NY, with black, silver and a smattering of apricot filling the rest. Not sure as to why.

 

I think that for some reason puppymills favor the cream/white ones - I guess that they must sell better in petshops? Around here that is all you see. Once I was in the Vet's waiting room for a half hour and counted five of them come in in a row!

 

Small White and Fuzzy is known as a large demographic of dogs that interest, uhem, you-know-what-I-mean sort of buyers. Greeders and millers would want to cater to that market. And that's how so many Small White and Fuzzy Poos end up in shelters, is my guess.

 

Interesting. They always say that being a big, black dog in an animal shelter is a death sentence. Add "aggressive breed" to that and .. :-(

 

Sad to hear about the prejudice

 

Try. Petharbor.com

When in rescue we used that site to keep an eye on "inventory". You can search the strays and be there the second they become available. That is how I found my Izzy.

 

Hi
In my area most of the poodles on petfinder are apricot.
I have personally fostered over 30 poodles and several mixes. Most of my fosters have been apricot. Very few silvers, a few black poodles and some white poodles, too.
I'm mostly sorry to hear that you have so many poodles that are available....

 

It seems like most rescues and shelters get, Minature, White, Male poodles. You see other colors but not that often unless they are from a puppy mill, owner surrenders or a breeder that just can't go on.
