Royal Poodle Breed description: Character & Co

Description and characteristics of the Royal Poodle

The poodle is known for its sunny disposition no matter what size. Giant poodles have a particularly calm nature and treat people and animals with kindness and respect. Rarely will you encounter an aggressive or loud Royal Poodle. These proud dogs are very well-balanced, affectionate and cuddly. In addition, they show a particularly pronounced playful disposition, which you can observe very well with Royal Poodle puppies. Also because of its child and family friendliness, a Royal Poodle is very well suited as a play partner and a loyal friend. This breed also shows great empathetic competence and reacts very sensitively to the emotions of the people surrounding them as well as other animals. Royal poodles quickly notice when you are not feeling well and always try to cheer you up with a few cuddles.

Use of the Giant Poodle

1. Use for hunting: In the past, the King Poodle was very popular for hunting, because the graceful dogs are not only brimming with beauty, they also have sporting abilities. The Royal Poodle was and still is used for the duck hunt and small game hunt.
2. Use as a companion and family dog: If you keep a Royal Poodle as a companion and family dog, you will be thrilled by its capability of quickly picking up on things and willingness to learn. It is recommended that you try out various dog sports with your dog, as the Giant Poodle enjoys agility, obedience and protection dog sports.
3. Use as an assistance or therapy dog: As the Royal Poodle is very docile, attentive and friendly, it is very popular as a guide dog for the blind. Due to their patient and calm nature, they are perfectly suited as a trustworthy partner for people that require assistance. Because of their empathy and sunny disposition they are also very suitable for the use as therapy dogs.

Breed related diseases

Unfortunately this breed of dog is affected by a genetically inherited disease. The risk of hereditary hip dysplasia (HD) is present in the Royal Poodle, as it is also in many other large breeds. In Giant Poodle breeding it is therefore strictly observed that breeding dogs show no history of hip joint dysplasia.

Buying a Giant Poodle

If you want to buy a Royal Poodle, you should look for a reputable breeder. Good breeders are a member of a breeding club and usually only breed Royal Poodles. If you want to buy a Royal Poodle puppy, you are certainly right to do so at a breeder, but it is also recommendable to keep a look out for a Giant Poodle in need. Animal shelters are often overcrowded and the loyal pets often have to wait for a very long time until they find a suitable placement.
