| The Toy Poodle is a descendant of the Miniature
Poodle. The smaller specimens were so much in
demand that, by the middle of the 1950s, the UK
Kennel Club agreed to open a separate register for
them. These are the least robust of the three varieties,
however, so it is essential to select from sound stock.
The Toy Poodle has the same characteristics and
show standard as its larger counterparts, except
in the matter of size. It is happy and good tempered
and makes a delightful pet that is ideal for the
apartment dweller who nonetheless enjoys a canine
companion. The Toy is exhibited in the same clips
as the other two varieties. In any case, it will require
regular visits to the canine beauty parlor. Use a wire-pin
pneumatic brush and a wire-toothed metal comb
for daily grooming.
