Living Area: | The miniature poodle is an ideal choice for virtually any location. They are perfect for small homes or apartments simply because they are such small dogs. You will also find that they are okay with a range of yard sizes, especially since they like to remain indoors rather than outdoors for any length of time, especially if you remain indoors more often. Do protect them with a fence as they do like to explore their neighborhood if untrained and allowed to. This dog will not do well if left outdoors all of the time. |

Another feature that defines these dogs is their coat's curl. Some will have a very loose curly look while others have a corded look to them. Colors range widely. The tail on a miniature poodle is set high. It is often docked at about half of its size. The dog's ears are also a tell tale sign of their breed. They are long and flat with a wide look to them.
