Product Description

The Poodle shines as the superlative of the dog world: he is the most glamorous, the most intelligent, the most affectionate and the most popular dog in the world. From the breed’s origin in Europe as an athletic hunter of waterfowl to its modern-day reign as the premier show dog, prized home companion and talented performance dog, the story of the Poodle illuminates a dog who excels in countless arenas and endeavors. This book provides the much-needed factual information about the three Poodle varieties—Standard, Miniature and Toy—and their ancestry, character and standard as well as puppy selection, feeding, housebreaking, training, preventative health care and behavior of the breed.

In addition to an authoritative, comprehensive text, this book presents over 135 photographs in full color, which prove to be as informative as they are attractive. Helpful hints and important information are highlighted to provide easy access to everything the reader needs to know about life with a Poodle from puppyhood to the senior years.

Poodle: A Comprehensive Guide to Owning and Caring for Your Dog (Kennel Club Dog Breed Series)
I am not familiar with poodles and care involved, but this book gives lots of practical and useful information about all the things you would need to know about this breed of dog.

Books in this series are very similar
I read this book on poodles, then I read a book on cane coro's. While the poodle book seemed to have a lot of information as I read the cane corso book a lot of the information was repeated in it. I would consider it a good read if was not familiar with dogs and considering this breed.
